It's the MISHIMA episode. It's also the Mishima episode, in a way.

We do our best to discuss both Paul Schrader's 1985 art-biopic MISHIMA: A LIFE IN FOUR CHAPTERS and the man Yukio Mishima with our returning pal Comrade Yui, who has been on a real journey with this film. As you might expect, things get pretty weighty: the nature and purpose of art, Schrader's depiction of the suicide, whether you can be a bodybuilder without being fascist about it. This is a special one, folks.
