Watch The Recruit it on Netflix.

JD: Have you started watching The Recruit?

AC: No, no, no. I can’t take any more violence. I can’t take the violence.

JD: It’s not that violent.

AC: I don’t like the violence. It’s too much. I’m tired of violence.

JD: Just for anyone out there, it’s on Netflix. And it’s about a schmuck that joins the CIA. And he gets beat up a lot because he’s an idiot. And, but the thing that’s remarkable about the show is the portrayal of the bureaucracy. And the backbiting, backstabbing, creepy. And anyone’s worked in a big bureaucracy, whether and Mimi says, yeah, the corporate same way because she worked at a couple of big banks when she was younger. And I worked at an administrative state operation.

AC: You were a Democrat. I can’t even believe that you converted. It’s amazing. You got saved.

JD: No common sense. And so but just to watch the scenes in the office are the ones that make that show work.
