Will, Jared, & Kourtney (!) sit down to discuss one of the hottest and most controversial films of the year, Paul Thomas Anderson's One Battle After Another.

Does legendary auteur PTA deliver another ingenious adaptation of a Thomas Pynchon novel, or is this movie too radical for its own good? Do the hosts, inspired by the film, regret drinking Modelo during the podcast? Are the portrayals of people of color in this film offensive, and how uncomfortable are our hosts in even discussing that topic? Listen to find out!

One Battle After Another is available on these streaming services.

The Weather Underground documentary that Kourtney references which Perfidia's Letter is inspired by can be found here (letter is at 1:16:19).

The article by "Black Girl Watching" that Kourtney references can be found here.
