793 - Mr. Boring’s Opus feat. Bryan Quinby (12/22/23)
🕑 Added 2023-12-22 21:32:33 +0000 UTCBryan joins us to look at the new “comedy” movie from the Daily Wire wrecking crew, Lady Ballers. As with all these conservative attempts at humor, there’s definitely A Lot Going On Here, very little of which relates to the intended target of their ridicule. Join us for a dive into the mind of Jeremy Boering as he tries to use the subtle knife of satire to eviscerate the very concept of women's sports and really “women” in general.

Nick Mullen, is this your alt?

Ok but it’s ironic that BOTTOMS was brought up, which has the opposite issue of trying to make it seem like a bunch of girls with 3 months of self-defense training can beat up the top male athletes of their high school.

They kept f’ing with the air conditioning where I watched this movie. They didn’t want me to see it I think

Thank you for another year my fellow hogs. You're probably all hard to be around in real life but knowing that there are so many of you listening to this pod helps me get through. Stay safe.

Shout out to Chris for the commentary near the end about violence in conservative comedy. Doesn't chime in often but knocks it out of the park when he does.

Surprised as anyone to hear him say it, but I'm happy he's finally speaking his truth

this got me wondering… is PCU an astroturfed movie?

Someone please send President Xi this conservative Christmas song. He needs to know that our liberation must be Swift and that time is short
