This Week In Nope

This week, even the Vatican was trying to be a moderating influence as Handmaid Amy Coney Barrett was confirmed to the Supreme Court. The Trump Administration tried to enlist an unusual constituency to get early doses of the Covid-19 vaccine: professional Santas. A small Alpine town in Switzerland became a coronavirus hotspot following a dangerous yodelling competition. Finally, we have some film criticism. Rachel gives Sofia Coppola’s new movie “On the Rocks” a big NOPE, while Brian offers a YUP to “Borat Subsequent Moviefilm” starring Sacha Baron Cohen and rising superstar Maria Bakalova of Bulgaria. It’s been a terrible week, but if Joe Biden and Senate Democrats can pull off an unambiguous, sweeping victory on Tuesday, next week’s episode will consist of only YUPs.    HEAR US ON ITUNES https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/this-week-in-nope/ OVERCAST https://overcast.fm/itunes1312654524/this-week-in-nope  SPOTIFY https://open.spotify.com/show/07WFZhd5bgY1l1BspArfRJ STITCHER https://www.stitcher.com/podcas
