If you aren’t a member of the @UnclearPod Patreon, then you missed the best joke Jamelle Bouie ever told. I don’t laugh out loud a lot, but I did here. Keep up the good work

basically a lot of what's called politics in the contemporary world is looking at an old picture and going "that's what i want to look like"
What the hell happened to European civilization? Getting rid of Aristocracy was a fatal mistake. Whether its democracy or communism the landless have no business in the governance of the land. This was France just 200 years ago under the emperor:

How could listeners of the main podcast NOT be members of the Patreon?
On the Patreon this week we are discussing 1973’s EXECUTIVE ACTION, which is a bad movie but a rich text for talking conspiracy politics. I think this will be a great discussion so if you’re on the fence about joining the Patreon, now is the time to do it!

If you want to get a flashback of Congressional Republicans putting this approach into motion, listen to latest @UnclearPod w/ @jbouie @lionel_trolling on "Drop Zone." They pull profundity out of bad movies (& some good ones!) by delving into the headlines of the day.

Convo near end of @UnclearPod btwn @jbouie & @lionel_trolling on the Rocketeer & the political impact of such media themes on kids of the late 80s/early 90s re the difference in their perception of/affection for American ideals vs that of younger gens...I wanna write that thesis.

There's an old saying in Schelling—I know it's in Hegel, probably in Schelling—that all great world-historic facts and personages appear, so to speak, twice. He forgot to add: the first time as... as... tragedy... the second time as... as... it's funny if it happens again

Favorite movie podcasts are @TheBigPic (fun theme episodes, director interviews, games like movie drafts) and @UnclearPod (analyzing the politics of the post-cold war 90s through the lense of the political thrillers of the time) !! And Hollywood Handbook is my comfort comedy pod

1. TikTok dancing is mandatory, obvs. 2. If you haven't listened to Unclear and Present Danger (cc: @jbouie) you need to. I just re-watched Hunt for Red October just b/c of how much loved that episode: podcasts.apple.com/us/podcas… 3. There is no three.
Is there dancing? I was told Tik Tok included mandatory dancing.
