This episode is about Spike Lee's 1989 film Do the Right Thing.


Given all that has been happening in the United States at the moment, releasing a podcast feels frivolous. But I thought that if I was going to put one out, at least it could be topical. Neither Will nor I had seen this film, and neither of us were entirely prepared for just how topical it turned out to be.
