[The Wire] 403: Home Rooms, with Dan From The Internet

“It's a show about people and systems and ice cream and scissors and corner stores.” -Dan From The Internet Bags of drugs are falling from the sky, Matt is all hopped up on DayQuil, and returning to the pod is host of the Audio Face and Power Report Podcasts, Dan From The Internet to talk to Matt & Vince about The Wire season four episode three, “Home Rooms.” It’s the first day of class for Prezbo (but you can call him Mr. Pryzbylewski) and the teens are rowdy. There’s your garden-variety acting out, telling each other to shut the fuck up and whatnot, but he also has to deal with one of his students slashing another’s face with a damn box cutter. This is post 9/11. Who let this kid bring a box cutter into the classroom? She could have hijacked the class and flown it into a building. Bunny’s new job is not as satisfying as he’d hoped. He has to kowtow to his hotel manager boss because the mope he wants to cuff “represents a national consortium of convention planners.” Convention planners have been above the law for too damn long. This is why I would vote for Carcetti. On which part of your body would you get a tattoo of your own face? Tell us in a five-star review on Apple Podcasts .
