This is a special episode about mental health. It's a talk that was shared on our sister show TP&R a couple months ago. We're hoping that in a moment like this one, our Trailer Geeks community will find it helpful.   Perhaps this whole election season has been overwhelming. So we figured it's worthwhile to emphasize the importance of stepping back from all the chaos for mental well-being. The tools that are discussed include how meditation has been a transformative practice for many people, alongside other valuable “arrows in our quiver” like writing / prayer, physical exercise, nourishing the mind with great literature (fiction and non-fiction), fostering human connections, getting a healthy amount of rest and establishing helpful boundaries and rules of engagement.   00:36 Personal Journey and Struggles 03:06 Meditation: A Life-Changing Practice 10:56 The Power of Writing and Prayer 15:52 Exercise: Moving for Mental Health 18:16 Feeding Your Mind with Good Literature 21:43 The Importance of Fellowship 25:15 The Necessity of Rest 29:07 Setting Boundaries and Rules of Engagement 34:45 Conclusion and Final Thoughts   https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/talkin-politics-religion-without-killin-each-other/id1536169792   TP&R is on Patreon!

In this much anticipated conversation, we had the joy of sitting down with Dwight Caines, President of Domestic Marketing for Universal Pictures. With a career that evolved from scriptwriting to high-profile marketing roles, Dwight generously shares about his personal and professional experiences and what he learned along the way that helped shape his success in the industry. We discuss his early interest in film as a freelance writer (which led to his epiphany that freelance is not his cup of tea!); how he got his first gig in the business; and he details the digital innovation he championed in marketing and the campaigns that left a significant impact on him.   Dwight goes beyond discussing his professional achievements and delves into subjects that matter deeply to him. He highlights the importance of diversity and inclusion in Hollywood, underlining the evolution of inclusivity in film marketing. He also talks about his role in the Universal Pictures Inclusion Council and the 'Make It Universal' initiative aimed at showcasing diverse talent in the company. Dwight also underlines the significance of mentorship, the benefits of his teaching roles, and how he tries to inspire the next generation of filmmakers; as well as his involvement with Stand Up To Cancer and why the organization is so meaningful to him. Before we wrap, it was cool to hear Dwight shed light on the future of the film industry in the face of an increasingly digital world.   Be sure to check out our wonderful sponsor: Defacto Sound - www.defactosound.com/   Oh, and doesn't our new episode artwork look great?!?!

This is a special Twenty Thousand Hertz presentation of THE BOOJ STRIKES BACK!   This episode was written and produced by Abigail Barr. In the 80s and 90s, movie trailers were ruled by “voice-of-God” narrators who used stock phrases like, “In a world…” Today, movie studios have a different trick up their sleeves: epic sound design. In this episode, Professor James Deaville explains the history of trailers, and Youtuber Craven Moorhaus crafts a hilarious takedown of the overused clichés of modern blockbuster trailers. We've remixed one of our most popular episodes for your listening pleasure.  MUSIC FEATURED IN THIS EPISODE Digital Future by Christoffer Moe Ditlevsen Full Momentum by Christoffer Moe Ditlevsen Flare by Chad Lawson Falling In by Shawn Williams Furies by Ryan Taubert Absolute Zero (Instrumental) by Evan Giia Miracle Caught on Camera (Instrumental) by Icelandia   Follow the show on Twitter, Facebook, & Reddit.
