Otherppl with Brad Listi Brad Listi

The third episode of 'Brad & Mira For the Culture,' in which we cover Grimace— McDonald's character, gay icon, and talisman of the New York Mets...the return of Kate Middleton...and the weird and twisted downfall of Oscar winner Kevin Spacey.
'Brad & Mira For the Culture' is a series about popular culture and generational divides. Brad is inept when it comes to pretty much anything mainstream, while Mira is a a voracious consumer. Brad's Gen X. Mira's a Millennial. Together, they try to make sense of a senseless world.
