Chances are, you go to rottentomatoes.com to see your movies tomato meter score before

But what if you shouldn't?

It seems like the premise of this site is, you know, why should I care what one random

bozo thinks about a movie when I can ask 500 bozos all at the same time and not actually

to read a single word?

I'm just looking at a number and that's it.

Yeah.

How rotten tomatoes got rotten and how Hollywood takes advantage of that?

This week on Intuit, Vulture's Pop Culture Podcast.

This call is from a federal prison.

You will not be charged for this call.

We spent more than a year on this story.

We've walked you through all the evidence that proves that and that's why we're only

allowed to talk to Matt now in 15 minute increments.

For months, can it been gently confronting Matt with bits and pieces of evidence?

But he hadn't yet laid out for Matt everything we know.

The fake spy background, the cropped photos, the bullshit missions to Syria.

issue slip-ons.

You may begin speaking now.
