We lost David Bowie nine years ago on January 10th - although, the world didn’t know it until the following morning. That was a hard day. I remember feeling kind of numb, while reading the deluge of little eulogies in the form of celebrity tweets that featured a rote parade of words like, “legend,” “innovator,” and “genius” etc. These were largely written by a contemporary crop of artists who, frankly, owed Bowie more than words like “legend, “innovator” and “genius” etc. But I’ll never forget the one that broke me. It was the tweet that could’ve only been written by someone who had an accurate inventory of what Bowie’s work meant to other creatives, and also understood his international place in our pop culture.
It feels like we lost something elemental, as if an entire color is gone.

Anyway, this is an episode about the movie, The Man Who Fell To Earth and it was intentionally produced to be released right before the anniversary of David Bowie’s birthday/death. I could write a verbose paragraph on what his music meant to me personally or how it helped shape my world view – yadda yadda but that would bore even me and only undermine the points of the episode itself, which are:
1.) We are talking about a movie/not it’s star
2.) We really are just despicable whores.
We also introduce a bitchin’ segment called, Let’s Franchise This Comma Baby! The premise being, when we’re about done yammering about the movie, we decide how to either remake it, or eek out a sequel.
