Daniel and Jared discuss the story of Hara-kiri, a 1962 film directed by Masaki Kobayashi and its 2011 remake Hara-kiri: Death of a Samurai, directed by Takashi Miike. This film is deeply tragic and compelling, raising moral and cultural issues of biblical proportions. The story is set in 17th century feudal Japan, but its dealings transcend time and nation.

Welcome to another episode! Today Daniel sits down with his friend Larissa to discuss... *drum roll*... Barbie! (the movie).

We covered a lot of ground in this episode: modesty, aesthetics, feminism, humanism, patriarchy, and more! You don't want to miss this one. Note: We recorded this episode with a toddler in the room. We don't apologize for our little kiddo friends, but we did make some more edits than usual to help the recording flow better. Have comments or questions?
