#73 - FX's THE SHIELD; Adult Swim Streams; Kanye West's 'Jesus is King'; Pop music profanity

This month, Clint gives a full overview of FX's landmark series THE SHIELD, which he recently streamed from start to finish. Does it belong among the all-time great shows? Andy looks into why pop music seems to be so much more vulgar than it used to be.


Also in TV: Clint finds himself addicted to Adult Swim's experimental 24/7 live streams and talks about why he views it as a dream come true for broadcasting. He also pays tribute to a Japanese series in The Greatest TV Show Theme Song of All Time (this week).


In movies: Clint reviews the 2000 Sex Pistols documentary THE FILTH AND THE FURY and examines Robert Altman's unique treatment of the western in MCCABE AND MRS. MILLER.


Also in music: Andy reviews Kanye West's new album JESUS IS KING and draws comparisons with Bob Dylan's foray into religious music. He also adds another five songs to the never-ending Spotify playlist.
