Summary

Robbie Martin is joined by Leslie Lee III from the Struggle Session podcast to pour out their love for the Zack Snyder cut of Justice League and go over the tumultuous and strange history of how this mega budget super hero movie redo came to be. Robbie opens with the uncanny resemblance between Snyder's depiction of DC comics character 'Granny Goodness' and Elizabeth Warren. As the episode progresses Leslie and Robbie get into the undeniable career boost Ben Affleck got following his film Argo which was essentially one giant CIA commercial in Oscar-bait form.
