For episode #150, we're looking back at another of our formative heroes, the godfather of gonzo journalism, Hunter S. Thompson. We reflect on his era-defining book FEAR AND LOATHING IN LAS VEGAS through the lens of Terry Gilliam's 1998 film adaptation. One of these things holds up, and another does not (can you guess which?). Along the way, we discuss gonzo journalism, the 1960s, and the strengths and limitations of both Thompson and Gilliam.
