13 | Military-Entertainment Complex - Ultimate Scam Deep Dive

8/18/2022
After an unplanned hiatus -- we're back! This week, we bring a DEEP DIVE episode into the relationship between Hollywood and the United States Military. This cozy smozy relationship is not widely known or talked about -- and your favorite franchise might be one of the biggest beneficiaries of this arrangement. In this episode, the crew discusses how Marvel movies indoctrinate children into the military-industrial complex and questions if Hollywood could ever make an anti-war war movie. After this episode, you'll never watch a superhero movie the same way. BONUS: Count how many times Wayne says FRIENDSHIP and SACRIFICE and comment your answer on Apple Podcasts.
