In the wake of cancel culture and our heroes turning into villains; can we find a way to still appreciate the art or impact on culture of a cancelled artist? In this week's episode of the Layered Butter Podcast; Rod and Jordan are joined by Hannah McGregor & Marcelle Kosman of the Witch, Please podcast to mourn the death of the author, artist or even, hero. Is it even possible to separate the work and impact from the words, actions or views of the artist? Is there a fine line to thread when exploring, consuming and/or revisiting new work - whether its new series, past films or new material, are we more careful when knowing what we didn't before? Also - Raf joins Rod and Jordan dropping some hot takes in the film world today - if we even care about a new Rian Johnson Star Wars series or if art should truly imitate life with controversial narratives and if Tom Cruise really controls everything about his films - all this and more in this week's Layered Butter!
