491: Toddler Cage Match

Published: Feb. 7, 2021, 10 p.m.

Part One: Sports, A Cannibal, and Marilyn Manson

Jack, Mike, and Nate here for this installment of Hardly Focused! Jack kicks off this episode by discussing with Mike and Nate – gasp – sports! By the time you listen to this episode, a victor will have been declared in Super Bowl LV; nevertheless, enjoy everyone’s predictions.

Elsewhere, Jack introduces a follow-up topic from Episode 490 (while simultaneously announcing the semi-regular return of The Acc and Jack Show!) Actor Armie Hammer and musician Marilyn Manson have been called out for gross, abusive behavior, effectively “canceling” the two. During this discussion, Jack gets Mike and Nate’s respective opinions on the ongoing era of “cancel culture.”

Part Two: Bad TV Edits of Films, and an Epic Shutdown on Twitch

Jack presents a clip from John Singleton’s 2001 film Baby Boy, starring Tyrese Gibson. This happens to be the “edited for television” version that airs on BET. The edited dialogue also happens to turn the film from a crime/drama into an unintentional comedy.

In other news, Jack has another video to share for Mike and Nate; this one of Twitch streamer negaoryx absolutely destroying a troll’s life after they made a bad, sexist joke. Jack thinks streamers should just ignore comments, while Mike notes male streamers won’t face the same level of harassment.
