Happy one year anniversary of The Kidmanifesto!
This week, queer icon Mathew Rodriguez (@MathewRodriguez) joins host Sam Herbst (@mrsamherbst) to discuss The Human Stain! Mathew breaks down the questionable racial poilitics of this VERY confusing film and debates whether or not you need to be literate to work at the post office. Sam rants about men who try to teach you sports on a date and why that's unforgivable, and nominates an animatronic raven for best supporting actor.
