08/02/23 Show 166 : Donut Holes > Bullet Holes

if you’re like me (and I suspect a few of you are), you’ve had your fill with biopics / miniseries chronicling the pseudo-genius/pathological bullshit of modern times’ more notorious entrepreneurs.  Elisabeth Holmes, the jagbag from Uber, whoever invented the Blackberry, this fucking Beanie Baby movie (?!), you know THEY EVEN MADE A FILM ABOUT THE GUY WHO INVENTED THE INTERMITTENT WINDSHIELD WIPER.I guess what I’m asking is, with all of these projects with questionable entertainment / educational value, why has no one attempted to get a film or series off the ground about the person responsible for THE DONUT HOLE.  I mean, fuck off Robert Oppenheimer, let’s talk about an innovation that actually benefitted humanity.  And if there’s some dispute over who was responsible / who gets the money, hey, even better. JUST ADDS TO THE LORE. It can be like “Melvin & Howard” for the modern age (even better if you can find a part for Mary Steenburgen somewhere, she’s great in everything)
