On The Gist, a movie pitch: Kushner family racket.
Returning champion Chris Molanphy takes us back to 1991 and its chart toppers: Mariah Carey’s explosive debut, the Swedish group that topped the charts for a fourth time (it wasn’t ABBA!), and the Michael Jackson and Madonna music videos that had censors flustered. Molanphy is the host of Slate’s Hit Parade.
In the Spiel, the best movie lines of all time.
