MBA (Movies, Books, and Albums)
Movies, Books, Albums.
It's not that kind of "MBA".
Taking turns to nominate a movie, book, or album, three guys take you down rabbit holes and side-streets as each unpacks their take on elements that excite their curiosity... sometimes resulting in chaotic romps through the ridiculous.
What is it about the plot points in "Paddington in Peru" that remind Thorin of Nazi attempts to build the Fourth Reich in South America, and trigger memories of the "Cannibal Holocaust" for Devon? And how does David's discussion of a seminal country-rock album lead them to Charles Manson within three minutes?

Episode 9: Roald Dahl Retold By Wes Anderson - “The Wonderful Story of Henry Sugar, and Three more” (2024)
The departure point for this December Road Trip Bumper Episode is Wes Anderson’s 2024 retelling of Roald Dahl, in “The Wonderful Story of Henry Sugar, and Three more”.
We had optimistically planned for a light 20 minute episode to fit the remaining "Free-Hosting" time budget for the month... Alas! Roald Dahl happened.
As always, this is not a review, we pull the threads that tickle our curiosity and follow the rabbit holes where they lead. Enjoy the podcast.
