Firecrotch & Normcore: THEY LIKE TO WATCH
THE JESSE ARMSTRONG REWATCH S2 E01: The Summer Palace
•
Welcome to the bunker! Says hello to the grunts (us), and one-shot voodoo guy who holds the whole thing together (Jesse).
We’re into the first episode of the second season, and we encourage the nutty bastard to step up to the rack, and pull him limb from limb like a piñata to see what falls out.
Has he seen their plan, and is dad’s plan better? How do we know he’s not a double agent? And would he prefer Napoleon’s penis pickled in a jar, or dried like a strip of beef jerky?
Are we actually having this conversation? Yes, we are actually having this conversation. Remember this slant of light.
We need to stuff some f***king raccoons up some guy’s chimney - let’s move ahead with that process, shall we?
We’re all pals here, we want you to speak freely: fuckoff@firecrotchandnormcore.com

59:40|Come, come homeward. Promises to keep, and miles to go before we sleep...This week, we're talking Tern Haven with Jesse over a round of Hank Pierce's Break-bumpers. We’re kind of like eunuch besties.Can he recommend anything that Oprah isn’t pushing? Does he object to being fumbled by the invisible hand of the market, like a prim little matron? And does he kneel before His Majesty, the spinach?He'd better start speechifying, or we'll send him into the bathroom, and he will stay there until we have answers. (Or until he’s done something with himself.)Share your gossip, investments, art, movies, tittle-tattle, wider cultural interests: fuckoff@firecrotchandnormcore.comShove a bar of gold down our throat: https://www.patreon.com/THEYLIKETOWATCHFancy a little after-dinner stargaze? https://sohotheatre.com/events/sara-barron-anything-for-you/A Low IQ By Human Standards

A banana and a nap? And what if a good person ran WayStar?How's that for a carrot?
