Also, neither of them have seen the Snyder Cut, but we still managed to talk about it for an hour, and it was hilarious! (See accompanying photo for proof.) GRANT BRISBEE founded McCovey Chronicles and is now a staff writer at The Athletic. He has not seen Justice League. DAVID ROTH is a founder of the Defector and is the nation's foremost authority on former president Donald J. Trump. He has not yet seen Justice League.
