Still feelin' the double albums and started watch the " Steve Jobs and  Apple 1971: Rock changing the world and all that" series, so thought we'd tackle the sleaziest of the records from that year, "Exile On Main Street."  Some say it's the finest album of the Stones's career, but it's also the sound of a slow implosion, of things falling apart post altamount etc.....and if you keep imploding and imploding.  I just like that they're in their full Dionysian mode.  As Liam would say, "Do a line and dive in!"

In this epsiode I speak to leading economist, broadcaster, writer and author Liam Halligan. From humble beginnings growing up in an Irish family in North West London, Liam saw his dad work hard to build a construction business during the tough economic times of the late 1970s. Intellectual curiosity and natural ability led to a life changing scholarship at a leading independent school, which eventually led to studying at Warwick and then Oxford University.  Balancing various casual jobs and a plethora of sporting activities during his student years, Liam thought he was destined to become an academic. Early economic fact finding missions included walking from the top to the bottom of Sweden, a motorbike trip across Africa and a cycling tour of Washington DC, where he took a research post. A Subsequent research post in Moscow in the ‘Wild West’ years of the mid 1990s led to a chance opportunity to write an op ed for the Moscow Times, which led to his own economics column in that newspaper. Liam’s reputation as a major economic thinker of the emerging post-Soviet region was sealed. As Liam jokes “A lot of people have made a lot more money than me out of my economic analysis of the Russian economy at that time!” Despite a short stint in financial services and the potential to ‘make a lot of money’ working for an investment bank, Liam decided to pursue his passion for economics research, thinking and writing, with stints at The Economist, The Financial Times and for over the past decade as economics columnist for The Telegraph. Working three hours a day fixing up an unmortgageable house before he started work at Channel 4 News, enabled Liam to build the property wealth which underpins his family’s financial security. Liam likes to live a very simple and relatively low-cost lifestyle, and instead finds real riches in his family, his music and seeking the truth about money, people and the economy. His one indulgence? A Martin 15 series steel string electro-acoustic guitar. Now that’s living a rich life! A wonderful episode full of the honesty, humility and candor that is Liam's hallmark.

In this episode we suggest you start with trying to do a single set per exercise to failure and then add volume if necessary. If you are a beginner, great! The high intensity training style will save you lots of time over your training life. If you have been training for a while, this style can help you spend less time in the gym and help you avoid plateaus.  Remember: more volume does not necessarily equate to increased strength. As Liam likes to say, all we need to do is stimulate change, and then walk away.

Episode XI: Honey, Put That Found Footage Back Where You Found It   Greetings miscreants, and welcome back to Horror Business, the podcast that wants you to keep filming NO MATTER WHAT. We have a powerhouse of an episode in store for you, and as always your inexplicable decision to keep listening to us warms our weird hearts, because without you we are shouting nonsense into the void. Even with you it’s likely we are doing just that! This episode we wrestle with the concept of found footage and documentary style horror films, specifically 2013’s Final Prayer (also released under the alternative title The Borderlands) and the 1992 BBC special Ghostwatch. Our goal was to figure out the appeal of “found footage” horror movies and what makes a good found footage film versus a bad one. We open up the episode by talking about some films we had seen recently, including the 2014’s Clown, 2016’s Don’t Breathe, and 2016’s I Am Not A Serial Killer. You all get a wonderful little history lesson of the Lehigh Valley’s oldest drive in theatre, the illustrious Becky’s Drive In. We continue by discussing Blair Witch, which we were not one hundred percent (or even fifty percent) crazy about. Sorry, Blair Witch people. Finally, wrapping up the “what we’ve been doing lately” segment is Liam’s brief summary of his experiences at the Bruce Campbell Horror Film Festival and our Wednesday night outing to Brooklyn for the Miskatonic Institute event with Jack Ketchum (more info on that can be found here). Our first film of this episode is Final Prayer. We begin the discussion on this film by giving a brief summary of what “found footage” means, and the methods and history behind the genre. We discuss the weaknesses of such a technique and the potential shortcomings of employing such a technique. The way the filmmakers of Final Prayer get around the “why am I watching this?” question is discussed. The use of “documentary” style camera setups in creating tension and fear is discussed, as is the lack of a Cloverfield moment i.e. a dramatic and powerful yet improbable reveal of the monster. As Liam aptly states, “if you have the money for a giant payoff in a found footage movie, just make a movie.” We talk about the British subgenre of horror focusing on some ancient pagan evil re-emerging into modern society, the role of faith and Christian anxiety in this movie, and the way complex philosophical ideas in the church are presented in this movie. We finish up our discussion of Final Prayer by talking about how England and English culture is almost a character in itself in the movie, which exceeds in a way that the “it’s buried on an ancient Indian burial ground!” trope in American horror movie often fails to do. The second film in our episode is the 1992 BBC special Ghostwatch. We begin this segment by explaining how Ghostwatch differs from the typical found footage movie in that it doesn’t present itself as footage from a missing party but rather a TV special that bites off more than it can chew. The interactive nature of the original special and how that nature lent it a feel of authenticity is discussed. The similarity to Orson Welles’ famous radio broadcast of War Of The Worlds is discussed, with the opinion given that this production was actually far more realistic than that broadcast. We talk about the context of the special and how it was largely unprecedented in it’s nature and how that made it that much more believable, as well as the “prankish” nature of the special at times.
