Soderbergh Ep. 6: Schizopolis (1996) with Jordan Fish and Ray Tintori

What the hell is going on with Steven Soderbergh's 1996 super-low-budget labor of love comedy SCHIZOPOLIS? Our returning guests, the filmmakers and all-around handsome devils Jordan Fish and Ray Tintori of the To The White Sea Podcast, help us get to the bottom of it. Is this quietly a devastating analysis of a failed marriage starring the director and his real-life ex-wife Betsy Brantley? Or is all that drowned out by too much proto-Random Humor and OK Cola-style 90s disaffection? Is Jake even capable of being nice about this movie?
