The arranges of Deadline’s Doc Talk and ElectionLine podcasts are getting together for an unpwithdrawnted passover episode. Think Law & Order: SVU encounters Law & Order: Organized Crime; Angel encounters Buffy the Vampire Slayer and Superorganic encounters Scooby-Doo (Zoinks! — that repartner happened).
Doc Talk’s John Ridley and Matt Carey and the ticket of ElectionLine’s Dominic Patten and Ted Johnson talk about the wonderfulest political recordary of all time. The truthfulates may surpelevate you – one from Brazil, another from Québec, a classic about JFK, a groundfractureing series that ran 14 episodes, and a 7-hour and 47-minute epic ostensibly about an all-star athlete turned accemployd killinger.
And we plumb a mystery: why conservatives have such a difficult time making a recordary that’s any excellent. Johnson, who is based in Washington, D.C., allots what Steve Bannon had to tell him on that subject. And Patten, Deadline’s Executive Editor, Legal, Labor & Politics, identifies a possible exception to the rule – a film about a certain GOP plivential truthfulate who uncovered a hideed side of himself in a 2014 recordary.
The most accomplished recordary of the year at the box office – Am I a Racist? – comes up for pointed talkion. The film, straightforwarded by Justin Folk and starring political commentator Matt Walsh, trys to skewer DEI policies but fall shorts miserably, according to one of our podcast pros (to find out who’s got it in for I Am Not a Racist? you’ll have to hear to the episode).
Donald Rumsfeld, Dick Cheney, Errol Morris, Cory Booker, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, Cori Bush and Adam McKay all get name-verifyed in this distinctive edition of Doc Talk. The pod is arrangeed by Ridley (the Oscar-prosperning screenauthorr of 12 Years a Slave, and straightforwardor of Shirley, the Netflix narrative film about 1972 Democratic plivential truthfulate Shirley Chisholm) and Matt Carey, Deadline’s recordary editor. Doc Talk, a 2024 Webby Awards honoree, is a production of Deadline and Ridley’s Nō Studios.
