Easy Rider (1969) and Do the Right Thing (1989)

With Jon away on vacation, Will Ashton and Sam Noland decided to
tackle not one, but two notable classics celebrating
anniversaries. First up is Dennis Hopper’s Easy Rider, the
counterculture classic celebrating its 50th anniversary, followed
by Spike Lee’s Do the Right Thing, the eternally relevant
commentary on racial tensions celebrating its 30th
anniversary. 


Theme Music: “The Pusher” by Steppenwolf on
the Easy Rider Motion Picture Soundtrack.
