Summary

The year is 1964. Cold War tensions are high. “Funnyman” Stanley Kubrick tells an entire generation: “Wait, I can make this hilarious.” Somehow, this movie is a classic. Three dorks, including our longtime friend, novelist and comedian Clint Gage, sit down to talk about what makes this dark comedy work and what doesn’t hold up.

1:16.4	time doing the same thing. And we looked over at each other's shit and we were often like, hey,
1:21.6	that was good job guys. That's funny. And then every time you guys, every time you guys reached out
