   Nonrequired Reading: "Jesus is Not Rambo w/ Dr. Robin Kello"

   The boys are back with our favorite RADICAL FAR LEFT LUNATIC, Dr. Robin Kello, in our final discussion of Coriolanus, Shakespeare's fascist Roman play beloved by the Nazis. We discuss hearts and assholes, homoeroticism, and whether or not we can ever be "authors of ourselves" apart from a community. Rey and Mikey take the time to narrate the entirety of First Blood again, because Robin hadn't seen it and these are the things we think are important.

   Nonrequired Reading: "Introducing the Kentucky Canuck"

   Rey and Mikey sit down with scholar, writer, and teacher Paul Franz to discuss Shakespeare's Coriolanus and its unlikely parallels with First Blood. The boys imagine Glenn Danzig arguing with his Homeowner's Association, and a definitive answer is reached about whether Hamlet or Coriolanus would win in a fight.

   S4E11 THE RAMBO OF ROME, "Don't Tread on Wombs"

   This is the last episode in THE RAMBO OF ROME, which covers the end of Act Five. The women of Rome arrive, and Coriolanus' mother tries to end his rampage with an epic guilt trip. Will she succeed? Will he cry at the end like John J. Rambo? Also, Rey recalls an old friend who he hasn't seen in years.
