The Rip
On this episode of the Good Pop Culture Club, we check out the new Netflix thriller The Rip, starring Hollywood's favorite besties Matt Damon and Ben(ito) Affleck as maybe dirty cops who discover a large amount of money during a raid and have to defend it from their fellow maybe-dirty cops. Part cop thriller, part heist film, but does this reunion yield some good pop?

Chinese Republicans, a new play from Alex Lin
Coming to the Roundabout Theatre Company this winter, Chinese Republicans is a biting new satirical drama from Alex Lin, directed by Chay Yew, following three high-powered businesswomen who meet for lunch every month to discuss their latest career triumphs, as they’ve done for decades. But the group is jolted when Katie, a bright-eyed 24-year-old new to the workforce, joins to navigate the world of corporate finance. As each of the women attempts to steer Katie towards what they’re certain is best, they’re forced to grapple with how much they already have and are willing to sacrifice to climb the corporate ladder.
