Everybody Wants Some!! (Mike's #1 Movie of 2016)

Auteurs of Baseball and Sex (Two Dying Pastimes) #4

"As small and specific as it is, EVERYBODY WANTS SOME!! feels improbably expansive, even universal. As Jake's endless Friday night turns into the inevitable Monday morning, it turns out that his lost weekend was all about being found."

Ann Hornaday of The Washington Post gets it and gets us. Mike and Dave finally get to talk about one of the great hangout movies of all time, from the master of the genre, Richard Linklater.

“It's as if Linklater is bound by a bro code that obliges him to present these guys in a basically uncritical light.”

We only provide the review of penal colony resident, Jake Wilson, to show you just how wrong critics can be. We also discuss the fact that there are not good or bad guys and literally no one is cool.

Join us as we talk about male friendship, the difference between toxic masculinity and just masculinity (not much), and who we think we are in the EWS universe.

Strangely, we also delve into Mike’s odd kink of being paddled by Ben Affleck (of Dazed and Confused fame, obviously).
