Somehow, Gina Carano Returned | Ep. 415

#craftbeer #ginacarano #elonmusk After a quick dive into foods worth going out to eat, we get into something far less savory. Piggybacking on last week's show, we dig a little deeper into those involved in the Vince McMahon allegations — specifically the fallout reaching former UFC and WWE champion, Brock Lesnar. Then, bad analogy creator, Gina Carano has returned — and this time, she's backed by Elon Musk. Ms. Carano has sued Disney, claiming she was fired from The Mandalorian due to her conservative political and social leanings. If you don't remember, this was sparked by a long string of controversial takes she shared on Instagram and Twitter, from anti-trans rhetoric to comparing being a conservative with being a Jew during the Holocaust. But is bad form on the internet enough to warrant her getting the ax? To go with that, why has Elon become yet another mouthpiece for some of the right's most extreme instigators? Trigger warning: if strong political opinions and human rights issues aren't your bag, we get it — feel free to skip to 1:02:35 (but for the record, this podcast stands with our lgbtq+ brothers, sisters, and others). Beyond that, the boys talk Disney's dip into gaming with the generous contribution they just gave Epic Games. Will this make for better games for Star Wars, Indiana Jones, and Disney's animated IP? Or will having their precious eggs in one basket limit creative output? Strap in, drink up, and press play, Brewskis. *Beer Of The Week* Blake's Hard Cider Watermelon Heatwave 0:00 Worst Dishes To Eat Out 5:25 Beer Intro 9:50 The WWE Lawsuits And Fallout 24:06 Gina Carano vs. Disney 54:50 Elon's Shift To The Right 1:02:35 Disney Invests $1.5 B Into Epic Games 1:21:15 Cheers Of The Week 1:29:39 Beer Review
