In this week’s BYOB, Jack and Ben dive back into Stanley Kubrick’s darkly satirical masterpiece
Dr. Strangelove, examining why this 1964 classic still hits close to home in 2024.

We’ll discuss Sellers and Kubrick’s unpredictable collaboration, the genius behind the War Room’s iconic set, as we ponder if there could there ever be a more fitting film about mutual destruction?
