Content

The lads cry havoc and loose the dogs of war as they cover Joseph L. Mankiewicz’s 1953 adaptation of one of Josh’s favorite Shakespeare plays: Julius Caesar. Topics include the messiness of revolution, the shockwaves of Brando’s career, and what it means to be masculine in a world where even your best bros can stab you with knives.

That commercial was a personal attack on me specifically wasn’t it?

Weirdly we did Julius Caesar in high school, but it was in history class instead of English class. Same teacher had us read sections of Henry V too, I think he was a theater guy who just somehow ended up teaching the wrong class. The only Shakespeare we did in English class was Romeo and Juliet and Midsummer Night's Dream.

Elah

"taylor sheridan's mary kate and ashley series is really phenomenal" sent me into several minutes of fevered searching, did taylor sheridan work on those olsen twins joints under a pseudonym? did he do some kind of expose documentary on them? is there another taylor sheridan i don't know about who's like a youtuber or podcaster or something? ...oh i've been defeated by brian's bone dry delivery

We did Julius Caesar in school and I couldn't get into it at all until we watched this in class, so nice to remember how enjoyable this adaptation is Also if you do other Shakespeare adaptations in future would be quite interested in hearing your thoughts on the Julie Taymor Titus Andronicus film at some point

Not sure why but this episode has become the one I put on to fall asleep. I’ve never made it to the commercial and also I’ve never not laughed like a child at Charlie Brown and his love of big naturals.
