Corporate Gossip

What was the motivation for Billy to [REDACTED]? Why did we kinda want Nathan and Liz to [REDACTED]? Is [Redacted] delusional about [Redacted]?? We grapple with all of these questions and more on today's episode about Nathan Fielder's documentary, You Can See Everything.

Disclaimer: We hope you see the movie before being spoiled by us. And if you listen to us first, don't take our word for it! Everyone we spoke to in real life has a different interpretation of what they saw in theaters, which is what makes this film so unbelievable.

Join our Patreon movie club to discuss You Can See Everything on November 2nd.
