Oh no .. there’s a part 2 of this person ?

M. Nero Nava

You’ve got to be kidding me.

Bret didn’t ask what she thought of The Eagles at the end of the previous episode, that was a big clue there would be a Part 2

As you might have surmised, I didn’t get nearly that far in version 1. At least this time they are talking about books and movies and not trump

I usually look forward to new episodes every week, but this two-part guest appearance was disappointing. It didn’t offer anything new or insightful. I was particularly interested in hearing more about Bret and his work, but the segment felt too short—almost like it was cut in the edit. They didn’t even get around to discussing The Shards, which was a letdown.

M. Nero Nava

This one was less deranged entirely because BEE is great at being interviewed.

I’ve read Less Than Zero, The Rules of Attraction, American Psycho, The Informers, & The Shards & although I like them all, I like The Shards the best! I’ve yet to read Glamorama & Lunar Park, but I’ve heard those are also considered masterpieces.

Patrick

Great episode. Loved the AP talk because after maybe 20 years I’m rereading it riiight now. 🙌

richard owain roberts

am going to listen on my run. will say more later, after my run.

In the book, Patrick Bateman gets into Dorsia twice, once only because his brother Sean was able to get a reservation & the second time was because he impersonated someone on the list & was caught by the maitre d’. The scene where Patrick awkwardly attempts to jibe with the African American guys at the club would’ve also been hilarious to see in the film adaptation ha ha

our expert colonel is probably livid right now reading about marilyn manson dropping lawsuit agains evan rachel wood.

Carina

So right about Freud and Wharton. I find myself constantly referencing both while teaching.

Nathan Stack

Am I the only Silver member no longer getting email notifications about new episodes?

Florence

In the next platinum question, can someone ask if Bret has ever tried ecstasy 🙏🏾🙏🏾 plz and thank you if anyone sees this and takes pity on me

Paul Church

I'm lefty as hell and these two episodes with Kristen were superb and refreshing. You two really get to the heart of left dysfunction. Kristen's YouTube channel Colonel Kurtz is among the best out there, and getting to hear her and Brett in conversation was a real treat.

She's addressed this really well on her channel, and sees it as smart and necessary. The judge wasn't allowing the use of a bulk of his evidence and its was going to be an expensive waste of time.

Phoenix

Yes, the band!!!! For Christ Sake. I don’t know how Bret holds it together. Otherwise, I enjoyed this episode.

FlyingWaffle

More enjoyable than the first part.

Adam Carey

Not sure where to post this question, but can anyone remember which episode Bret discussed the Bee Sting on?

Bryan

MEGALOPOLIS is terrible and no, Bret, you did not miss a thing by not seeing it in IMAX.

Kurtz is right: the HAMLET soliloquy is so embarrassing. (But I disagree with her about JOKER 2.)

I’ve noticed this too. Guests who say they listen to the podcast still ask for clarification about which eagles he means. Ffs just answer the question

Erix Antoine

Eh… They can’t all be slam dunks. Part 1 of this was insufferable. But this was a fun listen. Especially when she interviews Bret.

J Hay

I worked on most of the Menendez ministries in the ‘90s, and I worked on a movie which the Menendez father was associated with. His murder apparently affected the release of that movie. I’ll probably check out the new one, based on what I’ve heard.

Jonathan Davis

Great conversation and good example of how interesting people are when they aren’t talking about politics!

Darren Ankenman

prosaic. fast talking. over enunciating.
