b'KOP reviews Sorry to Bother You and discusses why the movie\'s creativity leads to a counterproductive social commentary.\\xa0 KOP disputes\\xa0the ongoing socio-economic narrative that there are deadly conditions of working-class life and the only way to break out of it somehow by lottery-winning luck or through supposed merit. He also disputes the idea the writer/director Boots Riley tries to make that regarding poverty being a system of bad choices. "Yes, maybe you can make better choices and be the crab that gets out of the bucket \\u2014 but that\\u2019ll be at the expense of all the other crabs in the bucket." KOP also discusses the messages and the characters and the sci-fi component to the movie that has everyone buzzing.\\xa0 NOTE: I welcome constructive discussion on this episode, and if you would like to comment, please write me on Twitter @kingofpodcasts, write to our Facebook page or email jbrasco951@gmail.com Support the Creative Not Corporate Podcast by going to\\xa0http://www.creativenotcorporate.com/sponsors Doing your Amazon shopping through our link,\\xa0http://www.kingofpodcasts.com/amazon Shop Thousands of Officially Licensed TV and Movie Costumes, Shirts, and more from TV Store Online at\\xa0http://www.kingofpodcasts.com/tv Seek out KOP for professional podcast production, imaging, and web design services with King of Podcasts Audio Production and Web Design Services at\\xa0http://www.kingofpodcasts.com/production'
