Culture Gabfest: Noah Wyle Lures Us Into The Pitt

On this week’s show, the hosts discuss Max’s new medical drama The
Pitt – a show that we legally can’t call an ER reboot but does have
Noah Wyle donning scrubs and handling the next bodily emergency yet
again. Our regular hosts also discuss an article from the
Intelligencer, The Cruel Kids’ Table about how young Republicans
now feel empowered to bring cruelty back into public discourse.
Finally, we welcome LA Film Critic Amy Nicholson to discuss the
Oscar-nominated film September 5 about the hostage crisis during
the 1972 Munich Olympics. Also, we’re looking for a new Production
Assistant! To apply, send us an email introducing yourself and give
two ideas for segments to culturegabfestassistant@gmail.com. 
In the exclusive Slate Plus segment, the panel tackles the biggest
luminary question of the year: Do you use ‘The Big Light’?
