Clerks on "Clerks" with CouchManBakes

from I Dig Crazy Flicks with CatBusRuss · host Cat Bus Russ

The host of "Baking While Baked", Andrew "Couchman" Tiede, returns to the show to discuss the feature that put Kevin Smith on the map, "Clerks". CatBusRuss and his guest determine this is a feature about trying to find one's own identity. And, since these two make a living as customer agents, how this film serves to remind them not to take life too seriously, and always have a true hustle too focus on. Unless slacking is something you find comfort in. Thus, this podcast may have been better titled, "The Book of Randle". The conversation the two have serves as a chance to share their own war stories about customers and expectations set on them. It is interesting because Smith's film only seems crazy to those who have not been employed in the retail space. Every scene triggers trauma our two podcasters have endured, and they love the story for that. Smith made a film that shows the clerk is not alone, despite what the customers want us to think. Damn, more people need to see this movie so they know what kind of douches they choose to be. And since craziness was brought up, Couchman and CatBus review how "Ninety For Chill" has evolved into "I Dig Crazy Flicks". They look back on some of the films they have discussed, and which ones are truly bonkers. An argument can be made for all of them after they stopped and determined that Wyatt Earp and Doc Holiday from "Tombstone" are parallels to Joliet Jake and Elwood from "The Blues Brothers".
