    It’s literally 3 episodes and it’s just watching them kinda fumble around this idea.

    I think the show just promised too much in episode 1. It's less of a show about a telemarketing scam and more of a character study on Pat. I liked it but can definitely understand feeling underwhelmed

    An interview with the other guy says that making it, he saw it more as Da Ali G Show (get serious people be interviewed by a goofball) than Michael Moore and that shows

    I dunno if I really get Da Ali G Show comparison. I mean, yeah Pat's a goofball interviewing serious people, but he's also taking it serious (he's just in over his head). But he's not doing satire.

    Just noticed an FOP sticker on the door of my local immigrant owned corner store and it made me think of this.

    Yes i know not everyone on this site likes Chapo, but Sam and the other director were just on a Chapo premium episode and it was pretty solid interview. They were also just on Stavvy's pod too.

    Pat is currently missing, last seen in Easton PA. Hope he’s alright

    (Benny safdie and Sam both posted insta stories, I dunno how to link those)

    Pat was just seen at a shitty bar right by my moms place that I used to walk to when I lived there. So it’s good that he’s still kicking, but genuinely insane to just end up at that dive bar.

    They found Pat! He’s back home now. Nice
