434 - The Shorter Stick Up Arlo’s [Bleep]

<p><span style="font-size: 10pt;"><span style= "font-weight: 400;">This is a freestyle episode, so you better believe Paul and Arlo talk about all manner of goofy shit,</span> <em><span style="font-weight: 400;">but</span></em><span style= "font-weight: 400;">--there’s also kind of a topic too? Look, we make this stuff up as we go along, get that look off your face. Arlo watched John Carpenter’s 1981 cult classic</span> <em><span style="font-weight: 400;">Escape from New York</span></em> <span style="font-weight: 400;">for the very first time, and he absolutely loved it. He and Paul rave about the movie, its highly relatable cynicism, and its amazing music...which leads Arlo to proffer a shocking apology. The stick up his ass, it’s gotten a little shorter over the years. Plus, an in-depth breakdown of</span> <em><span style="font-weight: 400;">This Is Us</span></em><span style="font-weight: 400;">’ timeline and an exploration of why roasts suck.
