Humor, Horror, and Hollywood Reboots

from An Americanist · host Carol Marks

TALK TO ME, TEXT ITIs it "OK," "okay," or just "k"? We kick off this episode with a playful debate on the most appropriate spelling, setting a light-hearted tone before diving into weightier matters. Brace yourself as we shift gears to examine New York City's controversial program offering up to $4,000 to immigrants to leave city-funded shelters for permanent housing. From there, we dissect the chilling circumstances surrounding the tragic murder of Cash App founder Bob Lee, involving drugs, a wild party, and an enraged brother. Listener discretion is advised as we tackle these intense and shocking stories.Switching the mood, I come clean about never having seen a cult classic movie now set for a remake. Despite catching snippets over the years, I'm clueless about the full storyline and question if it's finally time to watch it. We debate the merit of remaking beloved films, sharing our skepticism about whether this one will live up to its predecessor. We wrap things up with heartfelt gratitude for your ongoing support and a reminder that we've already addressed the question of the day.
