This week is PART 2 of a very special episode of the WarPorn Podcast, Pat and Gene forgo the usual movie watching to deep dive into something on both of their minds, Depression.

A very special episode of the WarPorn Podcast, filmed just hours after the historic Biden victory.  Join the WarPorn crew as we discuss everything that came out of this insane week in American history with some goofs along the way. We discuss what this means as a country, what it means for the future. as well as what it meant to us personally as a Queer Disabled Vet, and a Jewish Clinical Therapist.

After a video went viral on Twitter, Pat has been on the end of a targeted harassment campaign by people wishing him harm. This week the WarPorn crew takes a break from movies to talk about how this happened, how it felt to receive all that hate, and some of Gene's own experiences with online harassment.

Our goal is to use this negative experience to help others that might be feeling something similar, and to show that the hate you receive doesn't define you. 

The WarPorn crew takes a look at one of the most infamous comic book movies of all time. Does the Dark Knight hold up? Or does 2020 politics shine an uncomfortable light on the themes of the movie? Tune in as we discuss the optics of a billionaire dressing up like a Bat breaking the law to give more power to the police. Listen as Pat tries to fit the Joker in the 'ex-military' theory, and Gene tear apart the patriot act.
