The Lowbrow Podcast

We break down an episode of everyone's favorite cop drama, Law and Order: SVU. This is the notorious Chris Brown episode, which is available on Netflix. It is Season 14, Episode 16. Watch (or rewatch) the episode and then join us for discussion.

Alex breaks down UFC 203, which basically felt like a weird old WCW PPV from the nWo era, with some help from his buddy William. The article Alex wrote in which he was kinda wrong about CM Punk can be found here: http://belgianbomber.blogspot.com/2014/12/cm-punk-in-ufc-sure-why-not.html The editorial about Punk referenced on this episode can be found here: http://www.bloodyelbow.com/2016/9/14/12912568/ufc-203-editorial-high-horse-get-over-cm-punk-mma-opinion-mickey-gall-fight-choke-wwe-wrestling

We talked about some of the good stuff we've been enjoying on Netflix and Amazon Prime lately, primarily Stranger Things. We talk about Suicide Squad, which was not a good movie. We did not hate it, however, and we attempt to explain out loud our mixed feelings on this disaster of a summer blockbuster. Finally, we come to grips with a world in which Nate Diaz has lost a fight to Conor McGregor.

We watched the movie Top Gun from start to finish, and it was every bit as horrible as we thought that it would be. From the poorly constructed plot to the sex scene that looks like it was constructed from the imagination of a 13-year-old boy, this film was a master class in Cold War era propaganda and 1980s hypermasculine homoerotism. Join us as we discuss the finer points of Top Gun. We also offer some Netflix/Amazon Prime suggestions, including the surprisingly good Mr. Robot.
