Bern Victims: The Artist Formerly Known As Reclusive Jerk and the Death of Burgess Live

Published: April 29, 2016, 7 a.m.

In the month-late 12th (real) episode of the I Just Don't See The Big Deal podcast, Burgess and von Sternberg tackled something that really was a long time coming: Bernie Sanders. Burgess had been warning us of this day for a long time, so it shouldn't come as much of a shock that something happened to tick the guys off enough to pretty much lose all faith in future President Larry Sanders. Less of a shock at least than the death of Minneapolis' favored son, Prince Rogers Nelson, who Burgess mourns a little less than the narcissism of the so-called mourners that gathered to honor the dead with their selfie-sticks. Come for the witticisms, stay for the pessimism! It's I Just Don't See The Big Deal!
