Episode description

We start off on some personal anecdotes in Hollywood followed by our analysis on British pop culture. The meat of the show is spent looking back on the events of September 11, 2001, a day Ryan still very much remembers despite being at a young age. We look on the ramifications of that day, how society and televised media responded in the following years to it, its historiography when compared to the you've-heard-us-put-it-this-way-but-here-we-are ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, how it pertains to recent history as of the last month (namely, the end of the occupation of Afghanistan) and how we ought to move on from a tragedy we mustn't never forget.
