EP#83 - The Death Of Expertise
In the midst of a pandemic, a climate crisis, and an otherwise rapid changing 21st century, we have one question: where are all the experts?! The past decade has given us a drastic fall in the trust we have for our institutions and people who actually know what they're talking about. This episode we talk about the side effects of this. Topics include: the rise of armchair experts, the United States fall in education, and the psychology behind our avoidance of the facts.

EP#82 - Will Movie Theaters Go Extinct? How COVID-19 is Affecting the Entertainment Industry
Keith and Grant take a virtual sit down this week with good-friend and longtime Keith-Advocate and Grant-Denier, Gianni Damaia of the Bad Movies Podcast! We talk how the movie industry is going to take on the task of mounting a film in the middle of a global pandemic. If you want to know a bit of the ins and outs of a film set, and how that all might change (and what you will experience will change), take a listen! We also discuss the demolition of Movie Theaters, how "The Mandalorian" might be providing a key map to the non-covid galaxy that seems far, far away, and how Gianni Damaia is writing a book. But won't tell us what it's about. What a sucker. Enjoy.

EP#81 - Quarantined in New York: A Coronavirus Comeback!
We're back and better than ever (debatable). We know Coronavirus is on overdrive these days, but we figured being in the thick of New York would give us a unique drop on the subject, especially in dispelling some hysteria.
