21st Century Boys

In this episode, we begin with a short chat about horrifying technology both imagined (Black Mirror) and real (Facebook). Then we look at the discordant thrills of Annihilation. Finally we touch on one of our favorite films of last year, Phantom Thread.

In this episode, we look at five broader pop culture topics that defined the year of 2017 for us. We get to the music of Mount Eerie and Julien Baker, the films of Christopher Nolan and Greta Gerwig, and great TV from Twin Peaks to The Good Place. And then Ian says something really beautiful about art and life and companionship and it made Josh cry. So listen, and here's to the new year.

In this episode, we discuss the new film from Bong Joon-ho, Okja. Then we catch up on Twin Peaks: The Return and dig into its stunning eighth episode. Finally we turn to the recent horror movie trend, from It Comes at Night to The Babadook.

HellooOoOooO, and welcome to our episode entirely about Twin Peaks.

In this episode we deal with expectations versus reality. First up is a lengthy chat on Kendrick Lamar's DAMN., including wild theories of a follow-up album. Then we laugh about Fyre Festival to stave off the fear of tech/influencer culture. Finally we talk about a seminal TV series for both of us: Lost.
