#704 - That's Not a Podcast...

About this episode

The episode discusses the cultural impact of 'Crocodile Dundee' during the Reagan Era and features commentary on AI and the NDP leadership race.

At the height of the Reagan Era, a simple man from abroad came to the heart of liberal America and reminded New Yorkers of traditional values. He also had trouble figuring out how a bidet worked. Folks, it's the CROCODILE DUNDEE (1986) episode. PLUS: Stephen Marche on AI, and Avi Lewis wins the NDP leadership race.
