262, "The Hateful Eight - The Somewhat Disgruntled Four (feat. Joseph Lewis and Ensley F. Guffey)"

Don your dead general's coat and strap on those snowshoes; for the Gobbledygeek season 7 premiere, we're taking the last stage to Red Rock for a discussion of Quentin Tarantino's The Hateful Eight. Bringing Paul and AJ up to a Somewhat Disgruntled Four are Wanna Cook? author Ensley F. Guffey and A/V writer-director Joseph Lewis. Ensley, a bonafide historian, teaches us how Tarantino plays with historical symbolism; while Joe, a die-hard Tarantino fan, tells us of the religiosity of his Hateful Eight 70mm experience. The gang also discusses the film's handling of race and misogyny, how Tarantino borrows from The Thing, whether or not the film is a convincing mystery, and more. Plus, the boys pay tribute to the icons 2016 has already stolen from us.   Next: break out your scones, guv'nor. It's time once more for the delightfully British Wesley "Wezzo" Mead to make his journey across the pond.
