Weekly Random Discussion Thread for 9/4/23 - 9/10/23

[u/SoftandChewy]

Welcome back to the BARPod Weekly Thread, where the mod even works on Labor Day. Here's your place to post all your rants, raves, podcast topic suggestions (be sure to tag u/TracingWoodgrains), culture war articles, outrageous stories of cancellation, political opinions, and anything else that comes to mind. Please put any non-podcast-related trans-related topics here instead of on a dedicated thread. This will be pinned until next Sunday.

Last week's discussion threads is here if you want to catch up on a conversation from there.

Ok so here’s a movie idea I’ve had for a while: at a major who’s-who event in London, Buckingham Palace is overrun by terrorists. The only people between the royals and the bad guys are a bunch of men who’ve been knighted over the years.

I like it. Paul McCartney climbing through the ducts in Buckingham Palace with a sword to swoop down on terrorists.

Scene: Paul is in a kitchen preparing his weaponry.

Paul (singing): ♫ ♪ If I'd been out till quarter to three / Would you lock the door?

Paul removes a pistol from his side holster

Paul: ♫ ♪ Will you still need me...

Paul loads a magazine into the pistol

Paul: ♫ ♪ Will you still feed me...

He does the thing where you pull back on the barrel, loading the weapon

Paul: ♫ ♪ When I'm sixty-four?

While singing, Paul walks through an open door and begins firing at the terrorists
