Say more about The Creator? I despised it for all the obvious reasons, but not in a *surprising* way, if you see what I mean.

I don't have much intelligent commentary on it, just thought it was very cliched and dull. After about 30 minutes I knew I didn't want to waste my evening on it.

I found the Hitchens argument really interesting watching. Especially seeing Alex O'Connor struggling to stay polite and measured when it was clear he was also quite angry and annoyed that Hitchens was going off on one, accusing him of being a propagandist for drug decriminalisation.

To try to steelman Hitchens' argument: I do think podcast interviews like this should have a hard stop at one hour, and ideally be no more than 45 mins.
