Smoke 'Em If You Got 'Em Podcast 88. Weird Justice: Masterson, Tarrio, Kutcher & Kunis
It’s September 11, and what does it say that neither of us recalled the date the minute we woke up? And what would it be like to wake up and find you are, perhaps, being made an example of? Danny Masterson, star of That 70s Show, found out last week, as did former Proud Boys chairman Enrique Tarrio, each receiving what seem to be outsized sentences, in Masterson’s case, 30 years to life for rape, in Tarrio’s 22 years for seditious conspiracy. Were the men’s long sentences affected by their affiliations to Scientology and the Proud Boys, respectively, and a public hunger for a whipping boy? And what do Ashton Kutcher and Mila Kunis have to apologize for? (Hint: nothing.)
Also discussed this episode:
* What it was like for Sarah to be in Bolivia when the towers came down
* An alleged LAPD/Scientology conspiracy seems unlikely …
* But how did Scientologists thwart the victims in the Masterson case (in one case charging $15k for auditing)?
* Thing we really didn’t want to know about Mackenzie Phillips
* How “intentional” was January 6?
* Men are turning away from college: Could the “bro-chure” bring them back?
* The debut of Beauty Bump, a regular tidbit wherein Nancy and Sarah share the products/gizmos/routines that keep them soft and lovely (please do not disabuse us of this notion).
* Gen Xers dig Olivia Rodrigo
Also, tonight, September 11, Nancy will be reading at P & T Knitwear Bookstore, 180 Orchard St, 6:30-8pm. Come by and say hi!
