About this episode

The episode discusses the film O Brother, Where Art Thou? and its cultural significance.

This week's Rick's Pick is O Brother, Where Art Thou? (2000) directed by Joel and Ethan Coen! We discuss George Clooney's movie star persona, the Coens' slapstick tendencies, and the Odyssey as a greater cultural artifact. I can just FEEL Ricky getting deflated about this movie over the course of the episode. George Clooney Bobbles His Head: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RZgUclE5J-w
