Description

“Are we to believe… Did Bunk and Freeman kill that guy?” -Kevin KruseThis podcast, in which we splice clips of Wesley Willis’ “Rock and Roll Mcdonalds” into scenes from The Wire, is first and foremost an academic pursuit, so it’s crazy that this is our first time having a professor on the show. Today’s guest is Princeton History professor Kevin Kruse. He takes a break from forcing tomorrow’s future leaders to do gender for long enough to talk to Matt & Vince about The Wire season four episode four, “Refugees.”Kima and Lester are reunited in the Homicide division of BPD, and like you would expect from police detectives who are serious about solving murders, the veteran investigators prank Kima like the older kids at summer camp had access to dead bodies. On the other side of the thin blue line, Marlo meets a security guard who wants it to be one way, but it’s the other way. Matt has a lot of fun with this. If you don’t like it, well, that’s because you want it to be one way, but it’s the other way. What’s your favorite catch phrase?
