Kanye, Scalia, & Deadpool

This episode has some ***spoilers*** so be warned. We start this podcast off with Diz’s hissy fit before quickly talking about the great trolls of the internet. We talk about Kanye’s latest twitter meltdown, his claims of needing money, reaching out to Zuckerberg, and typical antics. We discuss the nature of celebrities and our glorification of vanity. We put this in context of the rise of the trolls like Shkreli, Trump, and Kanye with a slight detour into the nature of celebrity industry, race, and gender. This leads us to talk about Antonin Scalia, whose death has left an opening on the supreme court and raised the stakes for the campaign. We end by talking about Deadpool the movie, giving our review and musing about the impact on the genre of comic book movies.
