Really enjoyed Blockbuster. It’s a story that’s been told over and over, of course, but it was a nice presentation and I picked up a few things I hadn’t heard before. I wish it were longer and more detailed, though.

I've been binging blank check with Griffin Newman and David Sims. It's weird, I'm not really super into the movies, but I really like listening to people talk about them.

I have a visceral reaction to advertising and promotion. There's just something about salesmanship that grates on me on a very base level and I react very negatively towards it. I want those people to suffer and I want their enterprises to fail.

Maybe not at the top of your list for stuff to listen to, but if you've got a serious interest in any of that stuff, it's waaaaay better than the Goop podcast or some shit like that.
Healthy birth procedures?

One of Henry Rollins stories is about him and even though Henry was fawning over the dude (for valid reasons, considering what he did with his festival and stuff) I also got the idea that he didn't like him very much. It was a weird thing to listen to.

One U Talkin' U2 2 Me? moment that makes me laugh every time is when they're talking about the Passengers album and Scott says "This sounds cool" while the most laughable embarrassing garbage music in the world plays
