Guests this week: Cathy Sorbo, Gene Pompa & Dana Gould
This week's edition of Copeland's Corner, Brian is joined by comedians Cathy Sorbo, Dana Gould, and Gene Pompa for a lively and wide-ranging panel discussion. The group dives into current political and cultural issues, including the rise of right-wing media, the legacy of Trump, and the dangers of extreme political comparisons (with a focus on Godwin's Law and the Hitler analogy).
The conversation explores the erosion of civil discourse on social media, the impact of media consolidation, and the evolution of news from public service to profit center. The panelists also discuss the controversy over Amazon's handling of James Bond franchise imagery, the challenges of updating classic characters for modern audiences, and the pitfalls of trying to please everyone in entertainment.
Personal anecdotes, sharp humor, and candid opinions keep the discussion engaging, with the panelists reflecting on everything from late-night TV hosts to the cultural significance of gun imagery in film.
If you enjoy thoughtful, funny, and sometimes provocative takes on current events and pop culture, this episode delivers plenty of insight and laughs.
