Love Is Blind: Japan, Drive My Car, and Zoë/Rob - a podcast by Criticism Is Dead

We discuss tk

04:15 Love Is Blind: Japan, streaming on Netflix, is a more thoughtful and illuminating window into dating norms and challenges than its U.S. counterpart.

23:51 Drive My Car, available on HBO Max, is a long reflection on grief, love, and art, but it ultimately falls a little flat for us.

40:40 Plus, culture notes about Zoë Kravitz and Robert Pattinson's smolder-heavy press tour.
