Tricia really was a character. Shows up to interview a subject and ends up just talking about herself. I was feeling bad that she’s looking so bad on national TV but she kinda redeemed herself by being so kind about her friend’s lies and sad backstory.

This is not the show for you. Time to move on.
Don’t be such a baby. The show’s more interesting if it feels more real. Seeing the seams of its stitched reality makes it slightly less great. Still plenty entertaining.

He’s a dweeb for nitpicking it so hard but you guys are so prickly at the idea of someone criticizing your comedy god. “get out of my thread” like lol

The point was to rile up all the well-to-do white people with a thanksgiving allegory, so it didn't matter one way or another. That's why she was pissed that Emma invited the Pueblo guy (who very much did not like anything there, and was the only non-white person there) because the art only works on the white clientele who feed off a sort of liberal guilt of empowering natives but while also commodifying and fetishizing The Other culture to assuage said guilt. It works by reflecting their own insecurities back at them.

Cara being an absolute hack and not even remotely close to a good artist was great: an alternate distorted reflection of Emma and Nathan's characters in a different light
Obviously the art was targeted at guilty white liberals, but Cara seemed like a competent artist and I gotta say I kinda enjoyed both the ham thing as well as the other pieces. The Pueblo governor guy had his personal take on the art, which is fair, and so did Fielder. But at least they got what the art was going for.

Imo the joke is squarely on Stone’s character who obviously missed the whole point of the experience and thinks there’s a correct answer to eating the ham or not.

I love that she uses an industrial meat slicer. I don’t have a read on it; it’s just hilarious imo.
