art, broken toys, film, rian johnson, star wars, the last jedi
Greg Iwinski, a comedian, film reviewer (he gave Balboa 5 Stars), and podcaster, comes on the show to attack all those who think Rian Johnson's "Star Wars: The Last Jedi" should have serviced the fans' expectations more than made a great movie (minus the casino scene) and set up a world-class franchise for decades to come. Film, art, and culture are all explored. Even a rant about maintenance-mode Catholicism comes in to play!

James Martin, horse-sized ducks, stranger things 2, the fall of white male Hollywood, Matt Fradd, Purity Culture/slut-shaming/why we only hear about the virtue of chastity, human formation, Star Wars 8, and why Matt Field and his Fiance Clare are such badasses!

Get a glass of booze ready, because in today’s show we interview Pastor Joey Svendsen from the BAD CHRISTIAN podcast, which describes itself as Post-Christian, or Post-Evangelical, or maybe just Post-Bible-Belt-Evangelicalism.
