Seven Chances / Go West with Jamie Loftus

By Blank Check with Griffin & David

12:00 AM EDT on May 21, 2023

This week’s Keaton double feature sees our unflappable hero chased by two types of terrifying crowds: angry would-be brides, and a herd of cattle. How does he outrun them both? Jamie Loftus joins us to chat about Buster Keaton’s tremendous on-screen running (up there with Tom Cruise), his enduring sex appeal (we love a hot tired guy), and his compassion for animals (giving the bovine star of GO WEST a week off to have sex). Plus, because Jamie is THE Hot Dog Queen, we get into a very involved, very long tangent about the world of competitive Hot Dog Eating.Guest Links: Get Jamie's book Raw Dog (The Naked Truth About Hot Dogs) out 5/23Listen to The Bechdel CastSubscribe to The Bechdel Cast Matreon Join our Patreon for franchise commentaries and bonus episodes.Follow us @blankcheckpod on Instagram, Threads, Facebook and X!
