Boots Riley's I Love Boosters

About this episode

Ajay reviews Boots Riley's film I Love Boosters and discusses the novel Lost Lambs by Madeline Cash.

Despite some blemishes, I Love Boosters is a hilarious adventure comedy film that proves Boots Riley is still a unique voice in an increasingly sterile American movie system. It deserves to be seen on the big screen in a packed theater. The bookshop has been updated with Madeline Cash's Lost Lambs. One of the best novels I've read all year.
