Episode description

And you thought Amos & Andrew was wrong-headed! This week, the guys discuss the colossal misfire White Man's Burden starring John Travolta and Harry Belafonte in a real racism mix-'em-up. It's as troublesome as it sounds! Does the premise completely miss the idea of classism? What's up with the weird 1950s sexism? Was that the most ridiculous downer ending? And just WHAT IN THE HECK is Travolta doing with his voice?! GOOD GOLLY. Next week: Our double whammy of Pop Star Summer begins.
