Things are getting a little awkward on the podcast this week, as our film ‘The King of Comedy’ focuses on the most socially inept and un-self aware protagonist that we’ve covered so far, Rupert Pupkin! (not Pumpkin, or Puffer, get it right) This 1982 Martin Scorsese movie might have bombed at the box office and received lukewarm reviews at the time, but it’s comments on fame and public perfection are as relevant as either. We briefly go into our relationship with Scorsese as a director, and Austin incorrectly states that he was the man behind the camera on Shark Tale (which is ass). Also, we go into Hollywood cynicism with Disney's stranglehold on theaters and Marvel fatigue, We’re also drinking a lime flavored sour thing by Dominga brewing.
