49ers Wild Win! Mac Jones Mayhem and One Battle After Another with director Rawson Marshall Thurber

from The Beat LA Podcast · host Matt Ferrucci & Paul Ruehl

We’re back! The guys dive straight into one of the wildest 49ers wins of the Shanahan era. (6:52) It’s a full-on lovefest with returning guest and diehard Niners fan Rawson Marshall Thurber, director of Dodgeball, We’re the Millers, Red Notice and the upcomingVoltron. Matt and Rawson were both at SoFi for the game and the fellas break down how Levi’s South took over the stadium and how a battered roster straight out of Average Joe’s Gym somehow took down the NFL’s Purple Cobras.Mac Jones is officially Him, Kendrick Bourne turned into Jason Bourne, and there may or may not be a quarterback controversy with Brock Purdy. They debate whether this was the grittiest win of the Shanahan era, if you’d rather have Sean McVay or Kyle Shanahan as your head coach, and whether the biggest free agent acquisition was Robert Saleh or Mac Jones. Eddy Pineiro gets his flowers, Tampa Bay is up next, and the guys try to decide if this team is a playoff squad or a Super Bowl problem.From there Rawson talks about how he landed the Voltron job and what he brought into the pitch room. Then they discuss Paul Thomas Anderson’s new film One Battle After Another. They also reflect on the passing of Robert Redford, Rawson meeting him at Sundance, and their favorite Redford films. Rawson recommends the new season of The English Teacher on FX.(1:08:33) After Rawson signs off, Matt and Paul shift gears to the San Francisco Giants and put a bow on the season. They throw out predictions on who the next manager will be and give Buster Posey a performance grade for his first year at the helm. Then it’s on to the Golden State Warriors. Was the Jonathan Kuminga deal the right move or is he trade bait at the deadline?They wrap up with Best Things They Saw: Alien Earth, The Lowdown and Platonic, before closing out Pet Peeves with Duane Kuiper, Jaxon Dart’s mom and green dildos.
