All this and more will be assessed and addressed as Don and Pat discuss Easy Rider and M*A*S*H on this week's The Academy Academy!   If you are a fan of the pod and/or need a place to send your unfiltered takes on Hong-sang Soo and Jingle All the Way, send us an email at [email protected] or message Don on Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/donsaunderson.bsky.social
