Charismatic con men, grief and The Royal Tenenbaums

Description

We usually tease the episode with some pithy switcheroo about how the movie is about one thing, but is it possible that there are some dad issues to unpack? But this is a movie that refers to an entire family by the dad's name, so join Sarah, Alex and guest Rachel Vorona Cote as they unpack Wes Anderson's The Royal Tenenbaums.

Here's Rachel on Twitter, and here is her wonderful book Too Much: How Victorian Constraints Still Bind Women Today.

We are selling this VERY limited run Why Are Dads shirt through November 18th.

And here we are on Patreon! And Twitter! And Instagram!
