Paid in Puke S7E1: ACS Impeachment - Exiles

Paid in Puke is back with a very special season! We're discussing
every episode of Ryan Murphy's American Crime Story mini-series:
Impeachment, starring Beanie Feldstein and Sarah Paulson as well
as a bevy of character actors portraying the big players in this
monumental 90s scandal that blew up so many lives. 


The first episode, Exiles, introduces the audience to Monica and
Linda, and gets them into position for the biggest bestie
betrayal since Judas. It also brings up so many issues for us to
explore, including power imbalances, bi-partisan sexual
harassment double standards, shitty boyfriends, office dynamics,
diet culture, body images, the immorality of the press, and how
Washington D.C. is basically a more insidious and dishonest
version of Hollywood.


We unwind with a fun Lunchtime Poll, wherein we reveal what other
entertainment-adjacent debacle we'd like to see portrayed in a
mini series or movie.
