About Matinee Manatees
A movie review and relaxation podcast for movie lovers who'd like some help falling asleep. Sluggishly hosted by everybody's favorite podcast hosts: a sedate pair of half-ton aquatic mammals who love movies and wax pedantic about them for hours on end. Come with and drift along? Note: this podcast is intended as a soporific; it's to fall asleep to. (It reputably works especially well on toddlers and folks who take baths.) Please don't listen to it while driving or operating heavy machinery unless you know in advance that we don't work on you. Or tripping. (Apparently we can sound spooky.)

Because, like, he's smart enough to... find someone smarter than him to actually do the work that will try to save this country. And he's still, yeah, he's like, and he's also smart enough that if the guy who is supposedly smarter than him fails at his job then the guy who's who's doing the job gets blamed instead of President Camacho he's brilliant yeah but like also just look at look at his platform as we tell like he actually cares about the problems he doesn't pretend they don't exist.
