06/30/21 SHOW 57 : A VIEW TO A PURGE (AKA PURGE OVERKILL)

The Gerard Cosloy Radio Hour (That Feels Like Two Hours)

this week's show is a celebration of an occasion that is not merely an important day on the movie calendar but also an acknowledgment of what for some of us could be called a lifestyle. A few of you could care less about the release of the new motion picture, "Forever Purge", the latest installment in the "Purge" franchise, but for those who've thrilled to the many twists and turns this series has taken, it's really brought out something deep within. So we attend "Purge" fan conventions, write "Purge" fan fiction, encourage our employers to observe "Dress Up Like The Movie (Or TV Series) 'Purge' Fridays". Speaking personally, I've seen no fewer than a half dozen relationships go down the tubes because my partners (with all due respect) insisted "It's only a movie" as opposed to, y'know, the prophecy.

(I find all of this highly ironic because I know of some philistines reading this are the types who absolutely lose their little minds over anything related to the Star Wars or Harry Potter cinematic universes when neither of those (inferior) franchises explore anything having to do with dressing up like Slipknot and all crime being legal)

Anyhow, due to copyright considerations (and an active restraining order against me by series creator James DeMonaco), this episode features no dialogue from the “Purge” films or any conversations with persons involved in the production of such. However, I’ve attempted to improvise with musical selections for 2 hours + and if you’re disappointed, at least you have the opening of “Forever Purge” to look forward to #onlyintheatres
