Episode 215: Movies About Government

[Dr Handsome]

I meant to respond to the "imp of the perverse" discussion. It's not exactly the same thing but when I send an email or write a note to someone I'll double check to make sure I didn't say anything offensive or racist when, you know, there's absolutely no reason why I would ever accidentally (or purposefully!) do either of those things.

Also: going to write about high brow/middle brow/low brow at some later time.

Being a huge Neal Stephenson fan, I enjoyed the Baroque Cycle mention. And to bring it full-circle, I'm pretty sure that the Baroque Cycle was the first time I heard the term "imp of the perverse".
