Episode 165: Lazy Birds Beyond The Thunderdome

After a two week break, the Bird Boys are back on Easter to share some of our thoughts, opinions, and reviews with another Lazy Bird episode! Also, Happy 4/20 to all the big time stoners out there! As usual, we kick it for a chat about what’s been going on in our lives, what we’ve been watching/listening to, and whatever thoughts are rattling around in our heads. Tap in and enjoy the ride.We kick things off with a recap of Otis’ awesome show with Tim Butterly and his subsequent trip to Nashville. Otis shares some anecdotes and experiences from the trip including a visit to Jack White’s Third Man Records shop. We also discuss some of the differences between Canada and the USA including how friendly Americans are, how different driving is, and the intellectual differences between the two countries. From there, we discuss the current Canadian election and the issues we have with politics in general (sorry lol). We urge everyone to go make their voice heard in this election and discuss the strange state of things in geopolitics.Then, it’s time to talk about what we’ve been watching. PALMREADER has recently seen Bong Joon Ho’s “Mickey 17” and enjoyed it for what it is (even if it isn’t as good as some of his other films). Otis has finally seen “The Equalizer” and understands the hype. PALMREADER also rewatched “Independence Day” and reaffirms that it still goes hard… even if it’s kinda dumb. Speaking of dumb movie-related stuff… what is going on with the Chicken Jockey craze and “Minecraft” screenings? Is this a Chinese psy-op or are kids taking back control of the franchise slop? We also talk about some TV shows we’ve been watching including “The Pitt”, “Daredevil: Born Again”, “The White Lotus”, “The Studio”, and more. Then, we do a quick shout out to some new music from FIDLAR, Corbin, Skrillex, Bon Iver, 156/Silence, Know Good, and a local homie saintjame. Check out his latest release, “Gabriel And The Angel Of Precious Stones”, on all streaming platforms now!That’s all for this week! We’ll be back next week to do Otis’ birthday pick… “There Will Be Blood”!Listen to “When This Is Over, Let’s Go Dancing” by Anxiety Weekend on…Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/album/060CSCe5yQiIv3a1SpQzHY?si=B87eI8WURqqoWpNd6hL9swApple Music: https://music.apple.com/ca/album/when-this-is-over-lets-go-dancing/1796328195Bandcamp: https://anxietyweekend.bandcamp.com/album/when-this-is-over-lets-go-dancingINITIATE BIRD PROTOCOL!Follow us on Instagram!Instagram: @palmreadr @otismorrisdude
