Sorry To Bother You (Featuring David Quinones)

Published: Aug. 17, 2018, 4:01 p.m.

b'On the 23rd episode of Piecing It Together, returning co-host David Quinones and I actually do our first ever cross-over episode with our other show Bird Road Podcast by covering the politically charged Sorry To Bother You. The story centers on a man in an alternate near future (played by Atlanta\'s Lakeith Stanfield) who discovers he has a special gift that will lead to a fast rise up the corporate ladder at his telemarketing job. As his career begins to take off, his friends begin to organize a protest against the corporation, and the anti-capitalism messages mix with plenty of weird dystopian imagery in this wild movie from first time writer/director Boots Riley. Puzzle pieces include the work of Charlie Kaufman and Michel Gondry, Office Space, They Live and Dope.\\n\\nThe main conversation of this episode also appears on https://birdroadpodcast.com/episode-38-the-killer-crossover-feat-david-rosen (Episode 38 of our Bird Road Podcast).\\n\\nAs always, SPOILER ALERT for Sorry To Bother You (and any other movies we discussed)!\\nhttp://sorrytobotheryou.movie/ (http://sorrytobotheryou.movie/)\\n\\nDavid Quinones is a writer, reporter, podcaster and my best friend.
