The Shield (Civil War, Fallout, and The First Omen)
FX's acclaimed police drama The Shield presented a darker and more realistic depiction of policing. On today’s episode I had a great conversation with Joe Mayall about the series and his article Twenty Years Ago, The Shield Captured the Brokenness of American Policing.

RIP MCU w/ Jesse Hawken
On today’s episode I had a great conversation with returning champion Jesse Hawken. We discuss the recent stumbles and possible downfall of Disney’s MCU. We talk about the box office failure of The Marvels, the production hell of Mahershala Ali's Blade, and the Zionist superhero that may be holding up the next Captain America. All that plus a brief update with Jesse on The Beatles and their final single "Now and Then."
