But we don\u2019t just discuss the season (series?) finale of Euphoria, we discuss the DC based America 250 events that are falling apart in real time because Trump can\u2019t keep his hands off the celebrations. And yes, despite the feigned indignation on the topic, it\u2019s a little hard to say Trump isn\u2019t making this about Trump when there\u2019s huge banners of his face on government buildings in DC. And he decides to cancel a concert in lieu of his making a speech.  Primary season has officially started, and we\u2019ve already got two controversial candidates to talk about; Graham Platner and Ken Paxton. While Paxton\u2019s flaws are well known and documented, including stealing money and cheating on his wife, Platner is stacking up new ones by the day. So we ponder the big question - when does it all become too much to support, even in the pursuit of power?  For our WAWC, we do a spoiler free discussion of Backrooms, the new movie based on the viral YouTube videos created by Kane Parsons. We both agree - if you are a fan of A24 horror films, you\u2019ll like where they went with this concept. We also discuss the idea of taking a concept that doesn\u2019t have a plot, strictly speaking, and translating that into a film. And, as mentioned, we discuss the ending of season three of Euphoria which does look to be the series finale because we\u2019re a little confused as to where Levinson would even go from here with the remaining characters.    ","author_name":"Ambitious Crossover Attempt","author_url":"https:\/\/www.twitter.com\/ambXover","html":"
