My Comment Was in the Last Episode
To paraphrase the final episode: a movie is great when it accomplishes what it sets out to do. What I would then ask is, “what is a piece of media that transcends what it set out to do?” I started listening to this podcast at that sweet spot in college, when you’re at the intersection of discovering/accepting who you are and realizing how important using your brain is. Ryan’s humorous, common-sense takes contrasting with Austin’s reality-melting lectures felt like the perfect representation of my own duality. I’ve gone on to accomplish more than I ever thought I was capable of, and you two made great role models of tenacious thoughtfulness and full-hearted honesty. If movies are a reflection of real life, then the SMTM crew have certainly stared reality in the face and come away with more than they were given. And that is art- contributing to the reality we have come to be comfortable with in a way that changes that reality forever, just by making an honest impact on the dialogue. I said something to this effect in my comment in the final episode, albeit much more succinctly in retrospect. I had no idea that the stream I was posting a comment on would become the final episode. I just wanted to give thanks. The fact that my name and, moreso, my words to you all are recorded on of one of my favorite, if not favorite, podcasts I’ve ever listened to is an honor, sincerely. There’s much more I feel like I want to say, but, like this podcast, things have to end. And that feeling of them ending too soon, of wanting more, of wanting to be more, well, that’s probably love now, isn’t it. Thank you again and always. Much love, Davis

I love pretty much all of Wisecrack’s other podcasts, but this one has a huge, distracting weakness named Austin. Just a stream of superficial, self-aggrandizing comments that interrupt any other flow to the conversation. Some serious insecurity-manifested-as-narcissism, at the cost of the...Read full review »
