Show by The Lowdown Slowdon

In their recap of The Lowdown’s Season 2 premiere, hosts Christian and Kurt slow down for a rainy night at Cain’s Ballroom, the arrival of Tommy Lee Jones as Lee Raybon Sr., and a father-son dynamic with a whole lot of Oedipal energy. Along the way they cover Betty Gilpin’s arrival as Ginger, a veteran public defender, Austin Amelio’s neck tattoo, a prison visit with PJ Vegas, and a tarot reading built around the Four of Cups. They note the show’s first dream sequence and a returning cast that includes Killer Mike as newspaper editor Cyrus. Throughout, they track how Harjo keeps balancing shaggy comedy with noir menace, finding new corners of Tulsa’s magic and darkness.They also talk about great movie references like The Weight, The Big Lebowski, Mission: Impossible, Inherent Vice, Magnolia, and of course, Paris, Texas. And Kurt wins the very first Wim Wenders Oil Man Award™.
