this episode is all about cynicism, about how it has its claws in us and looking how its used by some texts/art in interesting ways... and by others in less interesting, more dangerous ways. we talk about cynicism as influenced by the rise of neo-liberalism and the massive expansion of accessible, consumable culture.
we talk a lot about Alan Moore's Watchmen and about David Foster Wallace's short story The Good Old Neon.
more intriguing commentary about cynicism can also be found here: http://bostonreview.net/books-ideas-literature-culture-philosophy-religion-race-arts-society/jess-row-american-cynicism
