Flushing is Burning: This Metsiness is Killing Me
Manage episode 421156460 series 2503457
Grace is back after a week off, but there’s not really much new. The Mets have only accumulated a handful of wins in the previous two weeks, and it’s not fun watching so many players we love struggle. She also discusses the retirement of Ángel Hernández and the season-ending injury of Ronald Acuña Jr.
Next, the Mets being terrible has made Grace consider what it means to be a fan of something. It’s kind of a bummer ot root for this team right now, but we still watch and put ourselves through this torture. Why is it so hard to quit this team, and the things we consider ourselves fans of in general?
Finally, a movie minute highlighting a new film that Grace not only loved on a base level but has renewed her love for the medium and made her see some of the way forward for the industry and the artform.
