Your stepfather had a good reason to be shouting. Argentina won the world cup.

Bret the hip-hop head, bumping Pusha T in WeHo! Also lol at Adam’s enunciation of Nas.

N.M. Janice.

Paul Schrader does seem like he’d be a fun guy to have dinner/drinks with.

Saw a trailer for ‘Master Gardener’ at the theater the other night, going to catch this one in theaters for sure. There was also a great, long profile of him (as well as The National) in the New Yorker a couple weeks ago.

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

Palm Trees was definitely a throwback to when indies could be tough. Another recent film I think Bret would actually enjoy is Close.

Vin Bravo

Can we get Paul Schrader on again?

Agency is ownership. So if a character is deceased from the start, that character has no agency over how they are perceived by other characters. So I guess, the Segal character is the only perspective we as audience get on his deceased wife. Needless to say, that article sounds like a bunch of bullshit.

Great ep! BTW it’s pronounced Joel EDGE-erton…

Alex Bielovich

"That's not a train you're spotting" - nice one 👏

Writing & jackin & crosswordin’

And in addition to Schrader, why not Irvine Welsh? Sounds like a great rapport with Bret over years, he’d be a great free thinker - immune to wokeism, a hedonistic intellectual with much needed centrist political leanings

I remember back in 2013 I was walking along a street in Belfast, Northern Ireland and spotted Paul Schrader. Totally out of context moment. Ran over to him to say hi and he couldn’t have been nicer. Talked with him for about 15 minutes.

No-elle Gallagher he also said this season even tho Adam had JUST said Noel Gallagher. It’s the best. Good ol’ 🐝

I adore Bret and Adam’s dynamic. Also surprised Bret is eh about Depeche Mode. DP and Bret’s moody aesthetic sort of compliment each other. Lastly, does Bret have any interest in watching Beef on Netflix? That show blew me away. Best series of the year in my opinion.

Happyhead

LOL at Bret not traveling simply because he doesn't think he can afford business class (he could if he just had an airmiles account)

Calvin klein t shirts and lacoste polos feel like such an intense lean into Miami Cuban aestheticism

Paul Richardson

Just saw Beau is Afraid. Can’t wait for Bret’s review.

I love the variety and scope of the B guests on the podcast. I enjoy hearing people I’m not familiar with talk about their universes whether or not I agree with them.

Matteo Persivale

That’d be great but he lives in NYC and his wife his very sick, I’m afraid the logistics of PS coming to LA would be complicated. I wish he’d do it though.

Great episode, as always
