Silver Linings Playback 167 – Birds of Prey (and the Fantabulous Emancipation of One Harley Quinn)

Joel Murphy and Andy McIntyre watch maligned movies and find their silver linings. For the month of July, they are watching maligned franchise sequels.

Joel and Andy end the month by discussing Birds of Prey (and the Fantabulous Emancipation of One Harley Quinn), Cathy Yan’s criminally-underrated DCEU film.

Theme Song: “Bankin’” by Bronson Scott

[This episode was recorded during the 2023 WGA and SAG-AFTRA strikes. Without the labor of the writers and actors currently on strike, the film being discussed wouldn’t exist.]

Hobo Radio 539 – A scholarly examination of Billy Gunn’s WWE theme song “Ass Man”

Subscribe:

Often the best segments on Hobo Radio are those unplanned moments when Joel Murphy and Lars Periwinkle stumble onto a bizarre, unexplored topic and dive headfirst into it. This week, that happens again when an anecdote by Lars sends them down a rabbit hole that leads to a lengthy examination of Billy Gunn’s early 2000s theme song “Ass Man.”

They also discuss the ridiculous notion that Birds of Prey is doomed to fail because, according to Internet trolls, the women in it don’t look hot.

This week’s music:

  • Intro – “Giddy Up” by Tahuna Breaks
  • End – “Ass Man” by Jim Johnston
