I hope you get crushed to death by a fat guy trying to commit suicide by falling out of a window and when the paramedics answer the local bystander asking if you'll live, he just says "fat chance" and laughs.
Nick was a guest star on the Christmas episode. Didn't Will say that the guest has never been on before?

The calmness and sheer, unrelenting kindness is I think a big reason why "wholesomeness" has come about as a meme... genre? Flavor? Mr Rodgers is and was a fictional character who embodied all the theoretical good parts of Old White Guy Religion living. It's a good thing and a bad thing at once. It can be a role model and perhaps an emotional first starting point when it comes to forming revolutionary spaces. But it can also be used as a commercial, potentially, for the nazis and their allies to try to latch onto opportunistically.

mr rogers was actually that guy though. and he did do things that were somewhat radical for a children's program even if they seem quaint in retrospect.

it kinda circles back to the falwell episode where they talk about evangelical christianity not actually being christianity. rogers actually did love people no matter who or what they were.

A cameo isn't really a feature guest appearance, can you imagine anyone more asked for than Nick?

I really doubt they're gunna have Sanders on to talk about Eyes Wide Shut.

I disagree. Even ignoring the show’s obvious progressive politics, Mr. Rodgers could never be a rallying point for fascism because of its total rejection of aestheticism.

That's meaningless, though. The Nazis loved corny sentimentality and Anime Nazis deliberately try to appropriate anything their target demographic enjoys. You don't have to mentally caution yourself when you drink a wholesome glass of milk.

That's actually a good point; at various points he always pulled back and said "This is a puppet show, it's for fun, kings aren't real."

Epstein actually in the studio but Brace on his usual can with string connection.

Does he live in some Appalachian shack or something his connection is always terrible.
