Michael and Us: A Vast and Ecumenical Holding Company

Our Superdelegate patron tier was mad as hell that we hadn't yet discussed Sidney Lumet and Paddy Chayefsky's NETWORK (1976) and wasn't going to take it anymore. We watched an American classic and discovered that Howard Beale's famous speech isn't even the most important speech in the movie.


Michael and Us is a podcast about political cinema and our crumbling world hosted by Will Sloan and Luke Savage.
