The Radical Realism of The White Lotus

Unpopular with Jacques Peterson

Jacques is joined by writer Matthew Sini to discuss season two of Mike White's The White Lotus. They discuss the themes in the show, the normie obsession with the murder mystery plot, the annoying yasskweenfication of the female characters, and how the show's radical realism dismantles wokeness. They also get into Mike White's 2002 film The Good Girl starring Jennifer Aniston.

Before that, Jacques sounds off on Jen Shah, getting food poisoning, being gaslit over Meghan Markle and 'conspiracy theories' and more.
