It's not bad, it's just too long. I liked it because I did my senior thesis on the Teamsters and organized crime, so I was interested in their take. It was pretty accurate. The Mob used the Teamsters pension fund as a bank. As a side note, a relative of my wife recently found out his Teamster pension has been cut in half. It's too long, but I'm retired and bored, so I liked it. Originally Posted by Smails

I’ve started the Tiger show.

It’s not Netflix, but choices are slim, if you have AppleTV, I highly recommend Boy’s State. Really interesting.

Two rwcommendations....
1.) For pure entertainment value, Cobra Kai...if you liked karate kid at all, you will love this series.
2.) If you would like to scre the shit out of yourself, watch the documentary, The Social Experiment. Basically, it explains how social media, along with google, manipulate our feelings and thought patterns. I have read quite a bit about the big four and social media and quite frankly for some of the good that it has done, I think society would be way better off without social media.

We watched "I'm Thinking of Ending Things", Charlie Kaufman's latest film, last night on Netflix. It probably shouldn't be watched by anyone under 60 years old. It is depressing and exhilarating at the same time, and is the usual Kaufman mind-bender. Originally Posted by Xville
