In this episode, K introduces Warren to their new favorite director, screenwriter, and playwright, Melvin Van Peebles by way of the musical "Don't Play us Cheap". We briefly talk about Melvin Van Peebles' amazing life, we discuss metaphorical cannibalism (it makes sense in context), and Warren learns about The Screwtape Letters. Remember folks, "If you see a devil, SMASH HIM!"
