Episode 36 - Reviewing Slapgate, Dackgate, and what the fuck is a ’legacy sequel’?
Both m* and John go into serious reflection mode - both seeing where things have gone regarding the Oscar Slap earlier this year, the aftermath of the Oz Federal Election (it seems ScoMo may as well have had an accident in Engadine as his defeat became inevitable either way), and discussing the rise of the curious pop culture phenomenon known as the 'legacy sequel'.
All the above, and when you also find some time in the episode to actively compare Tom Cruise to the Ultimate Warrior you know this is an episode covering some ground!
