Will and Luke go back to the beginning and revisit arguably the only Michael Moore film that a sensible person might still watch in the year 2016.

#2 - Roger & Me

It was the movie that blew our heroes' minds when they were teenagers - but does it hold up? This week, Will Sloan, Luke Savage, and special guest Chris Berube revisit Michael Moore's Oscar-winning BOWLING FOR COLUMBINE. These three Canadians will unlock the doors... of your hearts.

#5 - Bowling For Columbine w/ Chris Berube

George W. Bush. Lila Lipscomb. James Bath. Britney Spears. Yes, friends - this week, Will and Luke are taking you back to the heady days of 2004, when America's fate hung in the balance and Michael Moore was one of the most talked-about men in the world. Yes, this is the episode you've been waiting for. It's time to let the eagle soar. It's time for FAHRENHEIT 9/11.

#6 - Fahrenheit 9/11

Luke and Will take a detour from the Michael Moore canon to begin a three-week exploration of the anti-Moore documentaries released in the immediate wake of FAHRENHEIT 9/11. First up: FAHRENHYPE 9/11, a straight-to-video rebuttal documentary starring a who's-who of 2004-era neoconservatism. Incredibly enough, it's not very good.

#7 - FahrenHYPE 9/11

Will and Luke continue their voyage through the anti-Michael Moore documentaries of the mid-2000s with MICHAEL MOORE HATES AMERICA, a Michael Moore-style documentary about Michael Moore himself. Filmmaker Michael Wilson travels the country in pursuit of an interview with Moore, but discovers America instead. Along the way, he haplessly tries to explain to Albert Maysles why the title "MICHAEL MOORE HATES AMERICA" is actually a satiric comment on 2004-era political discourse; ambushes Dinesh D'Souza; and listens raptly to our modern Cicero, Penn Jillette. Holy crap, this movie is terrible.

#8 - Michael Moore Hates America

And introducing…Dave Matthews Band! We’re talking the terminally normie jam band that ruled the 90’s by examining Dave, what made him so big, and what kind of legacy – if any – he created. We also do a fair bit of talking about the Rock ’n Roll Hall of Fame (DMB’s failure to be inducted this year inspired this ep) and why we love to hate these prestigious lists.

257 - Neoliberal Rot with Krystal Ball

Set against the backdrop of the country music industry and a soft-populist presidential campaign, Robert Altman's masterpiece NASHVILLE (1975) seeks to encompass all of America. Luke and Will discuss what this behemoth of a movie has to say about fame, politics, and relationship between the coasts and the "Heartland." PLUS: discussion of the three most important progressive firebrands of our era, Pete Buttigieg, Alan Dershowitz, and Film Twitter personality Bob "The Moviebob" Chipman.
