And now for a normal episode description: WE ARE TALKING ABOUT CHILDREN OF MEN AND IT IS GREAT AND YOU SHOULD LOVE IT AND YESSSSS!!!! The guys discuss PD James' dystopian novel, a trenchant analysis of politics and power that speaks urgently to this social moment and deserves to be rediscovered. And they mention the movie that PD James was "fine to be associated with", directed by the masterful Alfonso Cuarón. The discussion is passionate, combative, and filled with terrible pronunciations.
