Team America: World Police

If you don't throw in your buck o' five for freedom, who will? That's the question Susan, Greg, and special guest James ask as they discuss Greg's pick, "Team America: World Police." This puppet and insanity fueled movie is equal parts satire, parody, and farce - brilliantly woven together by the makers of South Park, Trey Parker and Matt Stone.

 

The Greg, Susan, and James talk about the movie's artistry and layered humor that lies underneath Stone and Parker's trademark crude humour on the surface. They also discuss the strain the film put on Stone and Parker, and the duo's battles with censors over its rating.
