The second episode of the Film Club is on Argo, directed by Ben Affleck and released in 2012. Starring Affleck, as well as a host of Hollywood greats including Bryan Cranston, John Goodman, Alan Arkin and Kyle Chandler, this movie is rare in that it deals with America's relationship with Iran. Set during the Hostage Crisis of 1979/80, the Iranian Revolution has seen the US Embassy in Tehran stormed, and many hostages taken. Six Embassy staff escape and gain refuge in the Canadian Embassy, and the CIA has to get them out. Sounds serious? Well this film has plenty of humour too, and that's where Goodman and Arkin come to the fore.Ollie and distinguished director Tim Hewitt discuss the film, best performance, unlikeliest scene and legacy. We also chat Iranian cinema, disagree about Marisa Tomei, and indulge in a Kyle Chandler lovathon. Next up in the film club: Financial Crash double bill The Big Short and Margin Call.LinksOllie on TwitterTim on TwitterFilms discussedA SeparationThe PastThe SalesmanPersepolisTaxi TehranThe NightUnder the Shadow

Upon the return to Nymora, the group picks up a tail. A mysterious figure approaches them and relays some pertinent information to the party, a human woman who informs the party that JM is safe and running with a slightly different company. They will reconvene at another time. Galahad and Shanks have a drinking contest that ends with Galahad as the victor and Hoshino with a great tale to tell. Zechs contacts Argo with the help of Glad who tells him that he said “not to worry and everything is fine” which immediately has him worried and knows full well that everything, in fact, is not fine. With Glad's help again he speaks to Natasha, Argo's second in command, and learns that Argo is en route to talk some sense into his friend and brother-in-arms, Antonius. Zechs informs a very buzzed Galahad and they discuss what this could mean for their mentors, and for the path that lies ahead for everyone. We finish with Galahad getting some clarity on a number of things from Bahamut. It's a troublesome road ahead but at least they'll have each other. Right? There's so much happening and that's where we pick up… Find out what happens next in this episode of the Medusa's Cascade: Collateral Damage!

Oceanographers are getting ready to go deep. They're deploying a network of sensors to explore the deepest parts of the oceans. The readings will help us understand more about our changing climate and the role of the oceans in storing heat. Deep Argo is an offshoot of Argo, a network of sensors that watch the top mile or so of the oceans. It consists of almost 4,000 probes deployed across the globe. Each one spends a few days underwater, recording temperature, salinity, and currents. It then pops to the surface and transmits its readings to a satellite before descending once again. So far, Argo has provided more than two million profiles of ocean conditions. But Argo studies only about half of the total volume of the world's oceans. The probes can't survive at greater depths. That means we don't fully understand how much heat is stored in the deep ocean, how it circulates, or how it's changing deep currents. And that's where Deep Argo comes in. Its probes are spheres made of glass, with a long tail to tell them when they've reached the bottom. They're designed to withstand the pressure at depths of up to four miles. Scientists have deployed almost 200 of them. They're aiming for a network of more than twelve hundred. The sensors will help improve computer models of ocean circulation and sea-ice melting. They'll also sharpen our understanding of how the air and oceans interact, improving not only climate models but weather forecasts—a practical advantage of going deep.
Jeff Foulk developed Argo in 2018, a clever little app that crosses the use of navigational guidance with social networking for boater safety. But it never really garnished much attention until five years later, when his daughter Megan turned to TikTok. Now it's about the most in-demand boating app there is. This is their story.

Bryan Lee Cranston was born on March 7, 1956 in Hollywood, California, to Audrey Peggy Sell, a radio actress, and Joe Cranston, an actor and former amateur boxer. His maternal grandparents were German, and his father was of Irish, German, and Austrian-Jewish ancestry. He was raised in the Canoga Park neighborhood of Los Angeles, and also stayed with his grandparents, living on their poultry farm in Yucaipa. Cranston's father walked out on the family when Cranston was eleven, and they did not see each other again until 11 years later, when Cranston and his brother decide to track down their father. Cranston is known for his roles as Walter White on the AMC crime drama Breaking Bad (2008), Hal on the Fox situation comedy Malcolm in the Middle (2000), and Dr. Tim Whatley on five episodes of the NBC situation comedy Seinfeld (1989). For his role on "Breaking Bad", he won the Primetime Emmy Award for Outstanding Lead Actor in a Drama Series four times (2008-2010, 2014), including three consecutive wins. After becoming one of the producers during the series' fourth and fifth seasons, he also won the Primetime Emmy Award for Outstanding Drama Series twice. In June 2014, Cranston won the Tony Award for Best Actor in a Play for his portrayal of Lyndon B. Johnson in the play "All the Way" on Broadway. He reprised the role of Lyndon Johnson in the television adaptation All the Way (2016), which earned him widespread praise by critics. For the biographical drama Trumbo (2015), he earned widespread acclaim and was nominated for the Academy Award for Best Actor. Cranston also appeared in several acclaimed films, such as Saving Private Ryan (1998), Little Miss Sunshine (2006), Drive (2011), Argo (2012) and Godzilla (2014).

Sirius, the brightest star in the night sky, arcs across the south tonight. And if you live in the far southern latitudes of the United States — south of about Phoenix or Atlanta — the second-brightest star sneaks into view as well. Canopus rises about 10 p.m., and stands due south an hour or two later. It's just a few degrees above the horizon. It's so bright, though, that you shouldn't have much trouble spotting it. Canopus is the brightest star of Carina, the keel. The constellation represents the bulk of the Argo, the ship that carried Jason and the Argonauts on their adventures. Canopus may be named for a sailor from another vessel from mythology. According to the story, Canopus was the helmsman for Menelaus, the king of Sparta. Canopus piloted the boat on an expedition to retrieve the king's wife, Helen of Troy. On the way back, a storm blew the boat off course, and it landed in Egypt. When Canopus went ashore, he was bitten by a cobra and died. Helen and Menelaus buried him, and Menelaus established a town there. He named both the town and a bright star that was in the sky then in the helmsman's honor. That star looks only about half as bright as Sirius. But that's only because of its greater distance — it's more than 300 light-years away, compared to nine light-years for Sirius. If you lined them up at the same distance, Canopus would shine more than 500 times brighter. Script by Damond Benningfield Support McDonald Observatory

Over the past five years, Intuit went through a total cloud transformation—they closed the data centers, built out a modern SaaS development environment, and got cloud native with foundational building blocks like containers and Kubernetes. Now they are looking to continue transforming into an AI-driven organization that leverages the data they have to make their customers' lives easier. Along the way, they realized that their internal systems have the same requirements to leverage the data they have for AI-driven insights. Episode notesWadher notes that Intuit uses development velocity, not developer velocity. The thinking is that an engineering org should focus on shipping products and features faster, not making individual devs more productive. No, the robots aren't coming for your jobs. Wadher says their AI strategy relies on helping experts make better insights. The goal is to arm those experts, not replace them. In terms of sheer volume, the AI/ML program at Intuit is massive. They make 58 billion ML predictions daily, enable 730 million AI-driven customer interactions every year, and maintain over two million personalized AI models. Intuit's not here to hoard secrets. They've outsourced their DevOps pipeline tool, Argo. They found that a lot of companies used it for AI and data pipelines, and have recently launched Numaproj, which open sources a lot of the tools and capabilities that they use internally. Congrats to Lifeboat badge winner Bill Karwin for their answer to Understanding MySQL licensing.

Synopsis In the hands of a great performer, the violin can sing with the personality and intensity of a great opera singer. Pyrotechnics may dazzle, but nothing moves an audience as much as when a great violinist "sings" through his instrument. On today's date in 1896, a French audience in Nancy must has been so moved when the great violinist Eugène Ysaÿe gave the first performance of this music: the Poème for Violin and Orchestra by Ernest Chausson. In addition to famous artists like Manet and Degas, Chausson counted among his friends many of the great musicians of his day, including the great violinist Ysäye. Although they admired his work, Chausson was not always appreciated by the public. But when Ysaÿe premiered Chausson's Poème in Paris in 1897, the applause went on and on. Used to just the opposite reaction, Chausson was stunned by his success, and, while thanking Ysaye profusely, kept repeating to himself: "I just can't believe it!" Two modern-day violinists, Joshua Bell and Pamela Frank, were the inspiration for this songful contemporary work by Aaron Jay Kernis. Titled Air for Violin, it was originally composed for violin and piano, and premiered in 1995 by Joshua Bell. The following year, Pamela Frank and the Minnesota Orchestra premiered a new version of Air for violin and orchestra.

Merle Haggard & Willie Nelson [04:33] "Pancho & Lefty" Pancho & Lefty Epic FE 37958 1982 What the hell is up with the intro?! Anywho, pretty decent pass at the Townes Van Zandt classic. And these gentlemen let Townes appear as a federale in the accompanying video (https://youtu.be/UoKvUYbGu7A). The Knitters [09:18] "The New World" Poor Little Critter on the Road Slash 25310-1 1985 Well, since there was an election just recently, this seems like the one to go with.

Fun fact: Argo was a subsidiary of Chess Records. The Undertones [32:11] "It's Going to Happen" Positive Touch Harvest ST-12159 / Ardeck ST-12159 1981 A bit of a change in direction for the Northern Ireland lads. And I would say in a good way. It's always interesting when bands progress their sound. Feargal still sounds as distinctive as ever. During their appearance on Top of the Pops for this single, guitarist Damian O'Neill wore a black armband to mark the recent passing of Bobby Sands. Bongwater [35:47] "Bedazzled" The Power of Pussy Shimmy Disc shimmy 040 1990 Originally recorded by Dremble Wedge and the Vegetation (https://youtu.be/JXnoWb88Jr4).

Earth Wind & Fire [38:32] "Fall in Love with Me" Powerlight Columbia TC 38367 1983 Track one, side one solid dancer with a heckuva guitar solo.

Iron Maiden [45:32] "Flash of the Blade" Powerslave Capitol Records SJ-12321 1984 The epicly epic album from my favorite band when I was a teenager. I caught them at Radio City Music Hall on this tour, with opening act Queensryche. You've never seen so much spandex and leather and hair. And then there was my nerdy self. Anywho, evidently this song made it into Dario Argento's Phenomena. Krallice [49:37] "Conflagration" Prelapsarian Gilead Media relic92 2017 Blackened goodness straight outta Queens.

Synopsis On today's date in 1895, Gustav Mahler conducted the Berlin Philharmonic in the first complete performance of his own Symphony No. 2. Mahler's Second is often called the "Resurrection" symphony, as the work includes a choral setting of the Resurrection Ode of the 18th-century German poet Klopstock, but Mahler himself gave his symphony no such title. In a letter to his wife, Mahler confided that his Second Symphony "was so much all of a piece that it can no more be explained than the world itself." And like the world, music is often full of surprising transitions! The American composer Paul Schoenfield quotes a dramatic passage of Mahler's Second in his concerto for piccolo trumpet and orchestra titled Vaudeville. In live performances, the sudden juxtaposition of Mahler and the Brazilian tune Tico-Tico always gets a laugh—which is just what Schoenfield intended. "I often suffer from depression," says Schoenfield, "and once, when I was feeling pretty low, a friend of mind suggested I try writing something happy and upbeat to see if that would help. Vaudeville was the result. I don't know if it helped me, but people say when they hear it, it makes them feel better. The music of other composers I respect has that effect on me, and I'm glad if "Vaudeville has that effect on others."

Hi, everybody, I'm back! It's me, your pal Count Vacula, with a brand-new No Filter with Count Vacula!I think you'll have a lot of fun meeting today's guest! His name is Ray Porter, and he's an actor and voice artist who's performed in all kinds of cool things! Ray has been in TV shows and movies your grown-up might have seen, like Frasier, and Argo, and Zack Snyder's Justice League—and he's been in some that you might have seen, like Curious George, and The Little Engine That Could, and The Suite Life of Zack and Cody! He's also narrated hundreds and hundreds and hundreds of audiobooks, so he's really good at doing lots of different voices and accents.To show me how he does it, Ray did a cool dragon voice, and then I did a giant's voice—and then we talked about how it's really fun to imagine how other people (or monsters!) might sound, but that you can never really tell just by looking at them. Even if someone seems scary, they could actually be a really kind person (or monster)! Something Ray and I have in common is that we both love stories! Something we don't have in common is that I like to listen to them, and he likes to read them out loud and perform them—and that's a really fun difference to have! Ray gets to record books, and I get to go and listen to them whenever I want. How cool is that?We talked about cardboard creations, and how penguins don't like cheese, and how he likes to ask new people to tell him whatever they know the most about! I think that's a great way to make friends, because someone might be an expert in something really surprising, and you'll learn a lot about it—and them!I learned a lot of things about Ray, especially that he's super fun to talk to, and a really nice person. I think you'll think he's fun and nice, too!Well, it was great talking to you again! I'll be back after the holidays with some more cool people to introduce you to, and in the meantime, I hope you'll be able to practice meeting some new people, too. If you're uncertain how to start the conversation, you could do what Ray does and ask them about the thing they know the most about, or you can just try asking them, “How were you kind today?” Have a great week, and if we don't talk before then, have a terrific Cardboard Boxing Day, too!Vac

Synopsis It was wet and cold in New York on today's date in 1925, but a curious crowd gathered at Carnegie Hall for a concert by the New York Symphony. Walter Damrosch was to conduct the world premiere of a new “Piano Concerto” by George Gershwin, who would also be the soloist. The audience reacted with cheers and bravos, but the reviews were mixed: "Conventional, trite... [and] a little dull" was the verdict of one; but another was enthusiastic, suggesting: "Of all those writing the music of today, [Gershwin] alone actually expresses US." In the America of 1925, that "us" would have included the owners of speakeasies, raccoon coats, and Stutz Bearcat roadsters. It was the "Jazz Age"— an era magically captured in F. Scott Fitzgerald's novel The Great Gatsby. Seventy-four years later, in December of 1999, John Harbison's opera based on The Great Gatsby premiered at the Metropolitan Opera in New York, playing to sold-out houses. Once again, audiences were enthusiastic—the critics less so. To capture the mood of the 1920s, Harbison had composed a number of original songs in Jazz-Age style, which he incorporated as themes in his opera. These tunes have even been published as a separate "Gatsby Songbook!" Imagine: a modern opera with tunes audiences can actually hum as they leave the theater! What will they think of next?

Nicholas Thompson is the CEO of The Atlantic and the former editor-in-chief of WIRED. Under his leadership, WIRED won numerous awards for design and reporting and launched a highly successful paywall. Thompson also wrote many features for the publication, including two cover stories on Facebook that have been cited multiple times in Congress. Thompson is a former contributor to CBS News, where he regularly appeared on CBS This Morning and CBS Sunday Morning. He is a cofounder of The Atavist, a National Magazine Award–winning digital publication and multimedia content management system that was sold to WordPress in 2018. Thompson previously served as editor of NewYorker.com. Before The New Yorker, Thompson was a senior editor at WIRED, where he assigned and edited the story that was the basis for the Oscar-winning film Argo. In 2009, his book “The Hawk and the Dove: Paul Nitze, George Kennan, and the History of the Cold War” was published to critical acclaim. Thompson has long been a competitive runner; in 2021, he set the American record for men 45+ in the 50K race and is currently ranked as one of the top 10 masters marathoners in the world. Nick had a number of amazing insights during our conversation. Some of them include: “I try to do my best within all the limitations of how darn hard it is to be a good parent” (10:30). “In some ways, [being a CEO and being a parent] are the opposite” (10:50). “My job as a CEO is to try to drive the organization in the best direction based on our most important values” (10:50). “I'm driving things more as a CEO, and as a father I'm supporting more and trying to help them find their way” (11:30). “My job is to make the business as successful as possible, as innovative as possible, as future-proofed as possible, so that we can sustain that mission of the magazine that's existed since 1857” (13:35). “We are open to a much broader range of opinions than our peer publications” (15:40). “I'm trying to develop a new platform for conversations that will allow people… to increase empathy” (18:20). “You start with the assumption you're going to do the absolute best content. You're going to do the best content you're capable of, and then you build the business model around that. You don't do that the other way around” (31:35). “Journalism is not a profession for people who are economically motivated” (32:15). “I got into journalism kind of by accident… I fell into it” (33:40). “You can come to something thinking about the right things, and then propose a solution that doesn't actually make things better” (37:55). “I look at every piece of data on every story” (43:15). “There's a period in the process of the creation of a story that is sacred and should not be touched by the people who care about the analytics, and that is the process from when the story is assigned to when the words in the story are finished” (43:40). “Being a good editor requires being able to juggle a whole bunch of things at the same time” (45:30). “The adrenaline flow of being a CEO is very different than the adrenaline flow of being a writer or being an editor” (47:00). “I've always been hyper-curious, which is something that's good for a writer. I meet someone new and I'm curious about who they are and what they do” (48:40). “[As a CEO], you have to be curious about how everything in your business works because you have to master it” (49:20). “I'm learning a lot, but am I getting smarter?” (50:15). “Running gives me a connection to the outside world, to the natural world” (54:20). “The discipline it takes to be a good runner rubs off on the discipline it takes to do well at work” (55:00). “You learn lessons while you're running” (55:05). “[Running and playing the guitar] are the two things I do in my life that are the most meditative” (57:00). “Making sure you're balancing the needs of the moment with the needs of the future is one of the great challenges of being a CEO” (1:01:10). Additionally, you can find Nick's website here, and you can also follow him on Twitter, LinkedIn, and Facebook. I'd also encourage you to check out Nick's book, The Hawk and the Dove: Paul Nitze, George Kennan, and the History of the Cold War, which you can purchase anywhere books are sold. Thank you so much to Nick for coming on the podcast! I wrote a book called “Shift Your Mind” that was released in October of 2020, and you can order it on Amazon and Barnes and Noble.
