2nd: Another Hour With Sean And Paul

07/14/20 • 105 min

Sean and Paul return for an hour (plus!) of discussion. One of these days, we are going to come up with our real name for this show. But alas, today is not that day.

In this episode:

Birthdays in the time of Covid
Sole – the Rapper.
Meeting your heroes is sometimes what it is cracked up to be.
We have morals and lessons from our brushes with fame.
Star Wars! X-Men comics! And the drawbacks of binging both.
How Knives Out is, and isn’t, like Star Wars.
How to be a good Wolverine fan.
Or how to be a good Star Wars fan.
Or how to be a good fan of anything, really.
Oh man. The recent Star Wars. And wrestling. How do we process this?
How not to be an asshole fan. We found the line.
How do we relate to the things we are a fan of?
Oh, and video games.

We unlock the usefulness of our childhood cartoons. And the colorforms.

We are not fans of the Walmart.
