Episode 49 - Violence in Entertainment: How are we affected? with Maggie Smith

Comedian, writer, and actress Maggie Smith joins Justin and Doug to discuss whether violence in entertainment has a negative effect on society. Once Doug and Justin finish comparing themselves to Disney and learning that Maggie attended school with the Prince of Bahrain, the three dive into their main topic by taking a look at violence in video games and movies. They also debate if violence in our society is environmental or if certain people are predisposed to having these tendencies. The heroes chat about why PG-13 movies are worse than R rated movies and then share the first R rated movie they each saw. Things are wrapped up with a double throw-down: Round 1 is Princess Leia vs. Rey and Round 2 has Legolas vs. Aragorn.
