The guys start off this episode with a brief review of the recent, bonus pod on The Act of Killing and the latest non-scandal involving Hunter Biden's exposed penis and Rudy Giuliani's trouser adjustments (2:57).
Next, Hayden gives a run-down of the Obama-produced, licensed-to-Netflix documentary film, American Factory (17:18). This is followed by a reflection on Obama's political motivations, the co-option of social justice causes by corporate interests, and critique of token concessions to minority groups in the wake of the BLM movement (24:55).
Next, Damon shares a deep dive into 'eugenic dating algorithms' and the control exercised by tech companies over the courting process and determinants of self-worth resulting in stratified classes of 'haves' and 'have-nots' (50:09).
The episode finishes up by touching on the perils of celebrity and general tom-foolery (1:15:33).
