Do you feel lucky, punk? This week, the guys tackle Michael Winterbottom’s 24 Hour Party People, a movie all about the Manchester punk music scene of the 1960s. They discuss Steve Coogan’s fourth wall-breaking as a narrative device, the controversial nature of Joy Division’s name, the credits that are impossible to read and much more. Plus: one of the hosts may have a semi-hot take about this beloved cult classic.
Next week: In the Loop!
