We’re probably a little late to the whole “Dave Grohl scandal” if somehow a rockstar getting a lady pregnant constitutes a scandal anymore. Grohl is kind of the bridge between the classic and modern rockstar and a lot of times leans a lot more into the “classic” variety in terms of his public persona.
I guess maybe it stings a little that he has been presenting himself as a dad recently but in my mind he’s still the guy who casually has three or four shots of Jager and a few beers before every show and getting arrested for drunk driving a little scooter around.
As Scott says maybe we should just stop treating celebrities like people. I don’t know how to feel about that.
You know who else doesn’t treat people like people? Vince McMahon! What a segue. Keith watched all 6 parts of the Netflix docuseries on “Mr. McMahon” and honestly if you want a much more honest and sordid account you need look no further than the Behind the Bastards series on the monster himself.
It’s also the dawn of spooky season so we talk up a bunch of horror flicks and podcasts too so if you’re looking for spooookkky recommendations we got those too.
If reading transcribed Nardwuar interviews is your thing, you can do that here.
Meanwhile over on Garbage Time… we continue to dig into Rolling Stone’s “Top 150 Best Science Fiction Movies” list that came out earlier this year and now both Jon and Scott have thoughts! Last time we made it through a full half 75 but this time we only made it through 30. We have more opinions the deeper we go! If you would like to show your support and head over to Patreon and subscribe at the 9ES Deluxe tier to listen to this and all past episodes of Garbage Time that would be appreciated.
