In an episode that will echo through the millenia, the Shuffle Bois return to the world of sword and sandals flicks to review a film that got Ben Troygered, “Troy” (2004). Troy is a perfect example of the "grounded and realistic" period pieces that proliferated in the 2000s that somehow were neither grounded or realistic or fun. After doing a deep dive into the source material behind the film (the Greek epic poetry of Homer), they look at the film's flat characters, first-draft quality script, and phoned-in performances before turning to themes and a short pedant's corner.

Enter the Back of House of the Dragon, a star-studded 2000s indie movie with a slice of life look at working at a middlebrow restaurant in the 2000s. Reminds me of the shitty restaurants I worked at and I love revisiting this one every few years. Also, always a treat to see friend of the pod Dane (line) Cook.
