Advertise on podcast: It's All A Big Nothing

We talk about about Chris and Tony being overcome with emotion, the nature of combining violence and comedy, and some of Steve Schirripa's latest smooth brained comments on Talking Sopranos. Plus a 5 minute discussion of the Many Saints of Newark, which is about all it deserves.

An iconic episode. We head off to Naboli-dapoli to discuss American identity, the nuclear American family vs the extended family, and the Australian Mafia. I watched the director's commentary for this one and was feeling very smrt.

We talk about how the baby boomers changed parenting, Richie's darkly ambiguous sexuality, and our first blowjobs--did you hear that?

We talk about how WW2 and generational succession are woven into the Sopranos DNA, Janice’s role as a stand-in child and parent, and why Paulie would be the best RuPaul contestant

A very table-setting episode as David Chase reintroduces us to North Caldwell, creates a Livia stand in, and shows off both Paulie AND Tony's sexual powers

We discuss Jimmy's ideal downward-tapering woman, how irony in the Sopranos is lost on most viewers, and the nature of the trauma Tony is dealing with.

We discuss how Massive G has very cool dialogue that a rapper would definitely use in real life, our guest's Nickelpact, and the complex nature of recasting an identity.

We discuss uncle jr's INCREDIBLE pussy eating outfit, try to count how many times Tony has stormed out of therapy, and how the men and women in the Sopranos feel stuck in rigid gender roles.

We discuss Tony joining the noFap community, becoming a Brony, and how the roles of the women in his life (wife/therapist/goomah) start to blend together.
