Michael and Us: A Prurient Interest
Ed Harris is a senator with presidential ambitions. Diane Keaton is the love of his life, but uncomfortable in politics. And with the White House in his grasp, his campaign is about to be rattled by a very, very stupid revelation from her past. We discuss Michael Lindsay-Hogg's RUNNING MATES (1992), a movie that emerged straight from the primordial ooze of the 1992 election cycle.
Michael and Us is a podcast about political cinema and our crumbling world hosted by Will Sloan and Luke Savage.

Michael and Us: Killers of the Flower Moon
The old saying goes that "the only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is that good men do nothing." But it helps if the men are very, very stupid. We discuss Martin Scorsese's KILLERS OF THE FLOWER MOON, in which the architect of a Native American genocide finds an easy pawn in one of the lowest-IQ protagonists in movie history.
Michael and Us is a podcast about political cinema and our crumbling world hosted by Will Sloan and Luke Savage.

Customer Reviews
Love the content, hate the rebrand
I enjoy pretty much everything Jacobin has to offer (especially the print magazine). Wish they never changed to this blue look though.
Learning
A very good podcast that informs you about politics with heart and humor.
Unfollowing
Listened for years but really amazed there’s nothing about the massacre of innocents at a concert.
