You know, the one where Kanye took the microphone from Taylor Swift. We look back at this seemingly meaningless moment that now carries so much weight 10 years later due to the reaction to event and subsequent actions by both artists (but mostly Kanye) that have kept this controversy going. It's often a silly subject, but unfortunately has brought up a lot of dark and uncomfortable feelings over the years. We do our best to examine why that's the case. Shout out to Jay Leno.  Also, we look at Todd Phillips' comments on comedy and how that relates to our earlier discussion this year on The Hangover.  As always, we are @decaderewind on Twitter.

Player Safety, CTE, and the 2009 NFL Season

With another Quentin Tarantino film hitting theaters this summer, we look back on Inglorious Basterds. It's been 10 years since we were introduced to Hans Landa, Aldo Raine, Bridget von Hammersmark, and Fredrick Zoller. How have our views on the film changed over the past decade, and how has the culture at large pivoted in how we talk about Tarantino? Brock and Kiel dig into the details, sharing some of their favorite scenes, stories, and moments from the film and where the movie ranks amongst Tarantino's other work. They also break down Once Upon a Time in Hollywood and discuss the director's penchant for re-writing history, for better or worse. Listen in!
