8 MILE with James Griffith

James Griffith, a philosophy professor and one of my best friends, joins me to discuss Eminem and the movie 8 Mile.

It's an hour of two bros bro-ing out on Eminem, Voltaire, Neoliberalism, Malcolm McLaren, George Plimpton and Rocky Balboa.

This is the Dr. Dre discovers Eminem documentary we discuss at the end.

The song I can't remember the name of is "I Won't Back Down" and it's here.

The episode ends with my "remix" of "My Name is." I put remix in quotes because I didn't mix anything. It's me on bass, guitar and drum machine under Eminem's vocals.

This is one of God's perfect songs. All I know is I'm upstairs and I'm listening to my Will Smith CD. LOL.
