Pirates of the open road! Asshole comedians in writers rooms! This was the first episode in a while where we couldn't find a theme!
Adam (he/him) tells us about the deathbed confession of Davy "Robber" Lewis, when you're so good at what you do they make your nickname straight to the point. Davy tried to live a straight life, but the allure of heists and deception was too delicious. Seemingly living a seemingly double life of highwayman and, of course, familyman. At the end of his short life he shares the unbelievable stories from his adventures.
Then Bec (they/them) tells us about Hollywood's biggest asshole, Chevy Chase. From his start as a privileged rich kid, to working at National Lampoon, being on the original cast of Saturday Night Live, an illustrious film career in the 80's, to reinventing himself on Community. Through it all, he stayed true to his roots of being an insufferable, entitled white man.
