What Do We Know? with Matt and Julia

DISCLAIMER: This episode brought to you by some bizarre vocal pitch-shift that we ultimately decided to keep (not because we don't know how to get rid of it).

Gender, compulsive heterosexuality, and the word "queer"? Consider them all solved! Today is brought to you by a lot of conversation about our audio quality juxtaposed with countless technical difficulties. Julia's phat ass was censored by GarageBand's stake in Big Wasp.

Julia saw Eraserhead last night and won't shut up about it! She bombards Matt with a filmmaking Q & A where all of the Qs are also kind of As? Stick around for us Find Your Roots-ing Nicholas Cage (aka Nicholas Kim COPPOLA?!). Also Matt got a bike--tune in next week for more on this.

What's good? No, really...what is good? Matt and Julia wonder if nuance has jumped the shark in the classroom and beyond. There do, in fact, be essays. Unfortunately a lot of them are written by TERFs and/or Carrie Battan.

Can you believe we're on a two week recording streak? Some might call it a Pride Month miracle, sponsored by WGBH, the slew of cancelled NBC dramas, and viewers like you. Julia still has a cast but we're not talking about it, and Matt knows the date of his art show, which are both huge updates from last week. Join us in unbridling the capitalist constraints of the modern television programme and modern life from our deceased brain cell, may she rest.

Hello fellas, femmes, and fluids we are BACK and we are NO BETTER than we were before. In the wake of both hard-won triumphs and harrowing pitfalls, Matt and Julia have decided to answer the call of our adoring fan(s) and actually record an episode for once. With takes that make Julia lament "nobody discourses with me anymore," and Matt encouraging Julia that she is Employee Of The Month, you can expect all of your cultural baggage unpacked here in our 69th (lol) episode.

Matt is wearing his Miranda July shirt and Julia's brain is "warm." We take you back to this podcast's rambling origins as Julia poorly describes the plot to "Portrait of a Lady on Fire" and Matt straight-up spoils a different French film. Space heater? On. Discounted Valentine's Day chocolate? Bagged. Brain? Cell.

We finally set the record straight on the great debate of soil vs. dirt while meandering along tangents about our crafty childhoods, Julia's workshop (that she isn't taking personally!), and teens dropping sad boi hits while covertly promoting their colon-heavy Disney+ original series. Long live Harry Styles!

Two weeks have passed, and Matt and Julia know...less? This dynamic comedy duo determines that they only have the qualifications to teach a course on rocks if it's given a deranged liberal arts humanities twist. There's a new corporate WDWK? floating through the ether, and we herby declare war. We're (officially) back and in fabulous form!

Reunited and if feels so...fine? Everyone is okay! The world is great and we set our eyes on futurity and the (false?) promise of progeny. Julia reveals her big five-year plan which is *drumroll* to live! Matt, on the record, calls children a financial burden. We're coming in to 2021 hotter than ever and ready to be cancelled when we finally blow up!

Keeping you on your toes by recording on our "normal" day (sorry, McKenna)! This episode is heavy on the truth, but we don't neglect to hit you with some facts. If COVID doesn't wipe out the population by the time Matt is done "traveling," we'll see you then!
