Episode 52: "One King Arthur After Another" - Knightriders / The Natural
Description
The Brendans convene to join Paul Thomas Anderson in saying "fuck you" to Donald Trump and ICE as we talk One Battle After Another and how it both is and is not the movie the trailers have been selling. We also pay our respects to recently departed film icon Robert Redford by looking how both George A. Romero's Knightriders and Redford's work in Barry Levinson's The Natural recontextualize the legend of King Arthur through 20th century American sports culture. Becuase we're big fucking nerds.
