PREVIEW - #721 - A Tedious Mediocre Slog

About this episode

The episode analyzes the indie black comedy THE LAST SUPPER and its commentary on political opposition in the context of 1990s culture.

After 25 years of conservative political dominance, the indie black comedy THE LAST SUPPER (1996) asked: should liberals just try killing their political opponents? We drive our DeLorean back to the '90s and analyze a very particular moment in Gen-X political comedy.
