An Introduction to "Something Pretty"

from Something Pretty · host The Pensky File

"Something Pretty" is a podcast that aims to discuss every episode (and movie) of HBO's "Deadwood" through a combination of humor, background reading, and narrative analysis. Wes (of the clammy hands) and Clay (who speaks in thunder) dive deep into the early 2000s series and examine its themes, characters, plotlines, and novel use of language. In this inaugural episode of the podcast, Wes and Clay discuss their history with the show, David Milch's favorite thing to shoot at with a shotgun, and whether or not the series is a western at all. Our first episode covering the series proper will be out next week. Make sure to subscribe to hear our coverage of the pilot, fittingly titled "Deadwood"!

Shut Up I Love It Sasha Feiler and Joe Cabello Many years ago, Sasha Feiler and Joe Cabello met in line for an improv show. They were young, dumb, and full of it. What followed were comedy shows so explicit, “genitalia” was practically a term of endearment.Fast forward 5 dogs, 6 cats, and way too many weird inside jokes later, Sasha and Joe are no longer young or dumb—but they’re still brimming with you-know-what. Here, they’ve teamed up to bring you a podcast where they interview a guest who passionately defends something universally hated, misunderstood, forgotten, overlooked, Mandela-effected, canceled—you name it. The key? They LOVE it. From toupees... to B-movies... to aliens, psychedelics, and the occasional surprise character, Sasha and Joe are here to spread love to the world that birthed them (but maybe should’ve used protection).So come and get that love because no one else will give it to you like we do.Also, don’t forget to check out the Patreon Bonus version of the show:https://www.patreon.com/c/ShutUpILoveItP Explicit Straight Gay Reviews Rumeal Welcome to SGR - Straight Gay Reviews!
