The title for this episode has a double meaning. Firstly, that the KKK is totally WACK, yo! And secondly, that Spike Lee's latest film, BlacKkKlansman (why is the middle "k" in lowercase?), which I trash in the first 25 or so minutes, totally sucks balls, and for my money was a pretty cynical attempt at getting an academy award. I mean, why ELSE would he have a sympathetic Jewish character in his movie? He hates Jews! Or, at very least, isn't very fond of them. And, furthermore, is he NOT aware that David Duke is no longer a fan of Donald Trump, thinking him a Zionist shill, and instead now backs Ilhan Omar, someone who Spike Lee most likely ALSO backs? I believe his REAL attitude about Jews is reflected in the Philip Seymour Hoffman character in 25th Hour. 

But, I digress. In the rest of the episode, Rachel and I talk about... oh just listen to it! Elya wasn't available this time around. In the second half, we answer listener questions, one of which is about the Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez sex tape.

Our featured band for Sounds of Marshabaloosh this week is legendary proto-metal, heavy prog legends URIAH FUCKIN' HEEP!!! Not caring one wink that they're a club act, who play in dinky ass bars like the Token Lounge, where I saw 'em last year (!!!), they have a new album called Living the Dream, which shows that legacy acts can still bring it. I play the track "Take My Soul Away." Listen to the song and check out the nifty music video at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j9S_s2NiEQo&t=0s&list=PLBzBwYhHpqLJdEk05JQtRHcjo416qLCJh&index=3.

The wonderful artwork, in which Rachel and Elya gawk as the KKK lynch me, was done by Shannon Bowman. The song at the end is, as usual, the Yesticles classic "The Diet Has Failed."
