Welcome back to our VIP video series "Off the Beaten Path," featuring my friend Christian Toto of Hollywood in Toto! Christian and I start off our week by discussing stories and ideas that may fly under our radar, in culture, politics, sports, and more. Plus, Christian previews his latest podcast at HiT.
What could be more Orwellian than a trigger warning for ... 1984? I will have more thoughts on that in my next post, but first Christian Toto and I spent quite a bit of time on the meaning and consequences of the new foreword for the 75th anniversary edition. Meanwhile, we also discuss how late-night comics are still defending Joe Biden's Sharp As a Tack® narrative, while Jimmy Kimmel defends CBS News from ABC. Did a hot new series predict the Boulder terror attack by pointing out the radicalization risk of fake news? And is Orwell merely spinning in his grave, or is he on full frappé?
