Show Notes

Obi-Wan Kenobi ends, and the Nuts discuss how different formats require different approaches to telling stories. Lindsey just wants Disney to let us binge-watch. David and Alec expand on the implications of The Boys’ Herogasm episode. The conversation turns to commercials on Netflix, where Alec shares some of his research on pricing models in streaming. Discussions of Roe v. Wade’s media coverage, Peaky Blinders, and household media taxation complete the episode.
