Do You Know The Score?
The hosts engage in an extended riff on the phrase 'knowing the score,' debating whether it refers to social intuition, blackmail, or a 'Tao-like' philosophy. The conversation devolves into stories about grifting rich lawyers at the Viceroy hotel, uncomfortable white person movies, and the distinction between 'the score' and 'the juice.'
