The Just Conversation Podcast
3.01 Meat Canyon & Therapeutic Art

On this episode the Philosophers are joined by Hunter Hancock of Meat Canyon animations. Together they help emperor Palpatine get back to his previous glory as ruler of the galaxy by teaching him to practice his skills in order to improve them. Palpatine takes a dark turn when he clearly doesn’t understand comedy structure and makes a bunch of cancer and rape jokes. The philosophers and Hunter teach him to not take his art too seriously, but Palpatine quickly sells out for the money train. Soon thereafter, Palpatine joins the media binge movement that is destroying societies attention span. Finally, the philosophers and Hunter play a game of Dungeons & Dragons while watching Kristen Stewart in Disney films.
