Here is part 2 bbs!
In this episode, Maz gets political, which means she does smoke a lot in the recording. She also does the best impression of Chet Hanks I've ever heard.
We talk about the myriad of terrible stereotypes this movie highlights, and of course the harmful message not only to people with intellectual impairments, but to the American people who were about to vote in the 1994 election. This is a disability/mental health podcast, but sometimes we need to digress!
Special thanks to You’re Wrong About podcast for coining the term “it was capitalism all along”, we love you v much.
CONTENT WARNING: Ableism, substance use and dependence, suicide, self harm, war, PTSD, death at war, historical views on intellectual impairment, HIV related illness and death, racism, a few swears.
NOTE: This podcast is not designed to be therapeutic, prescriptive or constitute a formal diagnosis for any listener, nor the characters discussed.

Host and co-hosts do not have the final say and can only comment based on their own perspectives, so please let us know if you dispute any of these opinions – we are keen for feedback!
