About this episode
The episode discusses Armond White's unique film criticism, focusing on his defense of Pete Hegseth through the lens of Pulp Fiction.
After too long a drought, we return to the writing of Armond White, the legendarily contrarian conservative film critic (currently with the National Review) whose writing has texture like no one else's. We focus on his recent defense of Pete Hegseth via Quentin Tarantino's Pulp Fiction. PLUS: Is Remains of the Day a #grindset classic?
