Listen to Episode 11 of the Socially Distanced Podcast on Spotify, Anchor, and Apple Podcasts.
This is one of the more unusual podcasts we’ve done so far. This was recorded on Tuesday June 9 at the height of the protests around the United States. Neither Bill nor Al really knew what to talk about or even if the episode should happen, but they figured just talking would be good not only for their own mental health, but would also provide a quick break for everyone listening.
Editor’s Note: We do apologize for the delay in episodes, as there was a number of scheduling conflicts with editing and recording.
The episode starts with a tribute to former owner of the site John Elliott who passed away earlier in the month. It’s then followed by a discussion about the situation in the world and organizations people can check out to donate and learn from (this also happens at the end of the episode).
Things lighten, sort of, with an in-depth discussion about Run the Jewels 4 and how it might be the most important record of 2020. The Watchlist this episode is expanded with Bill discussing Ava DuVernay’s drama When They See Us and all of Anthony Bourdain‘s shows while Al extols the virtues of IFC’s Brockmire and Rian Johnson’s Knives Out. They close the episode out discussing the teaser trailer for Bill and Ted 3.
So, enjoy this podcast, and if you have the means please support Black Lives Matter.
