Episode 59
In this episode, Mike revisits Dogma, Kevin Smith’s bold and controversial 1999 religious satire, in honor of its 25th anniversary re-release. He unpacks the film’s mix of irreverent humor and sincere spiritual themes, the cultural firestorm it sparked upon release, and the behind-the-scenes distribution issues that have kept it off streaming platforms to this day. From real-life protests to studio standoffs, Mike offers thoughtful commentary on the film’s legacy — and why Dogma still resonates a quarter-century later, especially for Kevin Smith zealots.
