We first cover the premise of the documentary, why it was made, and what audiences were led to believe it would explore vs. what the documentary *actually* explored. We also dive into The Machine as well as the misogyny, sexual assault, and history of racism at the Univeristy of Alabama that the documentary failed to cover. And of course, we share all of our honest opinions.
