Episode 61- Cats (2019) is Why The Terrorists Hate Us (ft. Rachey)

For a supplement to our discussion this episode, check out this piece: https://medium.com/@sam_louis/we-are-the-hogs-watching-cats-47df93bfbf58 Hogheads, for you we have prepared an episode with about as loose a structure as its subject, the Cats movie. We all forced ourselves through two hours of “digital fur technology,” cat bulges, and the stomach-churning James Corden to bring you tales from the sparsely-attended theaters where this film burned itself into our corneas. We discuss how the film made us feel like hogs, why it explains anti-American terrorism, and the unparalleled speed of its jump from theatrical release to ironic cult classic. We answer the hard questions, like what is the best way to dissociate mid-viewing? Which actors deserved to be stuck playing cats (looking at you, Rebel Wilson) in Cats? And is it worse than Loqueesha? (trick question - both should be erased from history) Tune in and keep it Jellicle.
