Episode notes
This week, Louis, Karen and film critic Dave White sit down to discuss faux prestige (or faux-tige) movies and television. What exactly makes something faux-tige? Karen breaks it down for us. Plus, Louis talks about the time he asked Kevin Hart and Will Ferrell some hard questions, Karen brings in some more Stranger Things..things, and Dave can’t stand any of the Bad Moms.
With Louis Virtel, Wynter Mitchell, Karen Tongson and Dave White.
That’s My Jam:
Dave White – Bikini Kill – New Radio
