Why one of comedy's nicest guys is haunted by cinema's greatest folk music a**hole
Episode Description
Comedian and writer Josh Gondelman is a pep-talk enthusiast and famously upbeat guy, with a solid career and a happy home life. Not one of these traits does he share with Llewyn Davis (Oscar Isaac), from the Coen Brothers' 2013 film INSIDE LLEWYN DAVIS. And yet, when he saw it in the theater, Josh felt so seen by Llewyn -- and not in a good way -- that he couldn't watch the movie again for a decade. Which brings us to now, when he tells us why!
Then, Jordan has one quick thing about the brand new movie your dad might be texting you about.
