Baby, I'm a Star
When we said twice as much GLoP for the money, we were serious., folks. This week, we of course parse the second debate and the surrounding mishegas. It’s a tricky conversation to have without using words forbidden by the CoC. Also, Ken Bone, America’s choice for the winner of the debate, why furniture shopping is the worst date ever, the specter of more damaging audio coming, and finally... Source

Engage!
This week (yes, I said week — more about that in a moment), the men of GLoP diagnose a certain candidate for President, political correctness run amok, Star Trek is 50, Stranger Things, an a fond RIP to the great Gene Wilder. And GLoP heads, we have some good news for you: starting this month, you’ll get twice as much GLoP for your money as we are going to do TWO shows a month going forward. Source

This time, a bit of commentary on the today’s shake-up in the Trump campaign, an argument for Larry Hagman as the most important actor in the history of TV, and then some Twitter hashtag games: #YourFavorite7Movies and #YourFavorite7TVShows. Finally... Source

Live from Cleveland
This month, we’re on the ground at the RNC (well, two thirds of us are, anyway). First up, a first slew hand impression of the goings on in Cleveland, also a mediation on the late great Garry Marshall and his incredible TV career, some thoughts on The Day The Clown Cried, the unseen worst movie of all times, and a Krauthammer anecdote, courtesy of Jonah Goldberg.

The Cat Food Is Pâté
It’s the middle of the month and that means it’s time for Jonah Goldberg, Rob Long, and John Podhoretz to take another tour through politics and pop culture. In this episode, they cover why the Trump campaign is like Grey Gardens, dissect the big battle scene on this week’s “Game of Thrones,” ask if sequels are killing Hollywood, and share thoughts on the dump Trump movement gathering steam before...

Un-Friended
The men of GLoP (that’s Jonah Goldberg, Rob Long, and John Podhoretz) return with another romp through pop culture and politics. This week, some thoughts upon the sunset of the primary season, the folks at Facebook are not our friends, of course some “Game of Thrones” commentary, a fond look back at the Steven Baldwin-Tom Berenger classic Cutaway, and should you write or watch something for free?

Unisex GLoP
Spring has sprung, and that means young (or middle-aged) men’s fancies turn to unisex bathrooms, zombies, and the complete abdication of common sense from the minds of New York voters (but not in that order).

Reality Is Too Weird

Superman, why newspaper (remember them?) humor columnists weren’t... Source

And the Winner Is . . .
Since our last show was recorded on location at political ground zero (at least for that week) and was almost all about the race, the men of GLoP insisted that for this show we throw politics to the side of the road and riff on whatever comes to mind. That includes a long windup to the start of the show (Rob insisted we keep it in) their favorite books, how to fix Twitter, The Walking Dead... Source
