This last edition of Dummo and Rice featured Ben, Jerry, and Ronan discussing the film Daddy’s Home 2. They immediately delve into their favorite parts of the film, skipping their usual introductory procedures of analyzing the actors and/or their effect on the film. This is made up for, however, when they step deeper into their favorite scenes to argue why Will Ferrell was the best choice for the role. From there, they branch off to many of the different roles in the film, discussing what is carried by each of the other actors. This analysis brings depth to the podcast and gives Ben, Jerry, and Ronan ethos. They leave their analysis of actors and jump into analysis of the director’s choices regarding the portrayal of some of the characters. Valid arguments and evidence are brought into the discussion which grant them logos in their podcast. Daddy’s Home 2 is a comedy and as such the comedic elements are analyzed. Comedy is classified using terms we learned in class, further exemplifying ethos. The quality of this podcast is superlative and I look forward to their next one.
