The Falcon and the Winter Soldier: Too Much Too Little

Daniel’s been thinking too much about streaming services and spends 15 minutes ruminating on what worries him the most, and then the two discuss The Falcon and the Winter Soldier and its complex metaphorical stand-ins. Also, they complain about the last episode because everyone has complained about the last episode.

Topics:

• Daniel’s existential dread over streaming services…
• …but Melvin feels VUDU solves that existentialism.
• Melvin, “What’s your fear, then? Like, what’s your fear [about streaming services]?”
• Introducing The Falcon and the Winter Soldier [17:19]
• Daniel, “I love the character of John Walker.”
• Melvin, amidst mocking laughter, “Let’s talk about the ending!”
