Am I Being Unreasonable?
With SAG-AFTRA considering the AMPTP's "Last, Best, and Final Offer" we hop across the pond in search of unstuck work. The self described comedy-thriller is both deeply messed up and thrilling. Mind the gap as Red & Ivan slam luke warm gin and talk BBC & Hulu's Am I Being Unreasonable.

Extraordinary
British television can be both VERY GOOD and (more importantly) not subject to SAG AFTRA agreements. Red & Ivan talk the excellent series from Emma Moran about a world in which *everyone* gets powers at 18 years old, except Jen. It's Extraordinary.
