As promised, we decided to dig in on last year's Best Picture winner and one of the most-discussed Political Films to come out of Hollywood in a long time: Paul Thomas Anderson's ONE BATTLE AFTER ANOTHER. And of course we roped in our buddy Ryan Torgeson, formerly of the Altmania podcast, who has maybe more context for this film than anyone we know. We talk about whether the film has a coherent politics and what that might be, the film's depiction of Black women, the "discourse" that most pissed us off, being the child of radical parents, and of course how many beers we've had (and their relative size). Really great conversation, check it out!
