Podcast appearances and mentions of Ben Bateman

Welcome to the DMF. Where I try to find out what motivates people behind the scenes in the world of acting and entertainment. Today on the podcast I am talking to podcaster: Eddie Green. We talk about his love of magic and podcasting. As always you can reach me on Twitter, Instagram, and Facebook with my name Justin Younts. Thank you for listening and sit back and enjoy. Welcome to the DMF. I'm Justin Younts. This is part two. So how did you get involved with podcast? So that was a friend of mine, his name's Ben Bateman. He hosted on YouTube a show called Action Movie Anatomy. It was on Popcorn Talk Network. And I was a fan of the show. And one day he was like, oh, by the way, I'm gonna be hosting something over on a platform called Anchor. And I was like, okay. He's like, if you wanna follow me over there, go ahead. So I downloaded it. And it was basically a way to do what he was promoting, listen to podcasts, but it was also a way to start your own podcast. And I was like, oh, you know what? That's pretty cool. I like doing the YouTube thing, but I'm kind of lazy. I don't like vlogging and editing and all that stuff. Maybe this will be easier. I can just record my voice, talk about what I love and put it out there. And at that time it was like Snapchat, but with audio. So it was only available for 24 hours and then everything would drop off. So there's a lot of stuff that I talked about that you can't listen to anymore. And then eventually it evolved and you could create your own podcast. So I always credit Ben Bateman, because he's out in LA, he does red carpets and he's an interviewer. And so I love what he did. And so he inspired me. So I always give credit to Ben Bateman. If it wasn't for him and Anchor, I don't know that I'd have this microphone, this pair of Joe Rogan headsets. What was it about podcasting that really spoke to you? Besides the lazy factor, it was just a lot easier to just put it out there than to record yourself. I think I realized that it was becoming very, very, very popular. This is 2016, 17, somewhere around there. So obviously Rogan, who's, I love Joe Rogan. I love listening to his stuff and then smaller podcasts. Yeah, it was just, all right, I wanna get in there. And going back to the acting thing, even though I don't wanna do the acting, I still like to perform. After I graduated high school, there was a big gap of time where I did magic and not like the card game, but like magic, like making stuff disappear. So I got really involved in that. And looking back, that's a performing art. So it's always, I love doing any kind of performing art. So this is now my performing art. It's radio, it's podcasting, it's putting yourself in front of a microphone and expressing yourself. And so I think it's just another form of acting in a way. So. Agreed. Talk a little bit about, you just mentioned magic. Like what about magic that, what is that? What spoke to you about that? So that is all, that traces back to Criss Angel, unfortunately, who's really not highly regarded in the magic community. Literally last night I watched the great film, The Incredible Burt Wonderstone with Steve Carell and Jim Carrey, where Jim Carrey is parodying Criss Angel. It's not Mind Freak, it's Brain Rapist. It's so funny. I totally forgot about how funny that movie is. But yeah, so, but it all goes back to Criss Angel, unfortunately. But yeah, it's, I don't know. Again, it's a performing art. So I got, you know, there was, at that time, there was a theater magic shop in St. Augustine called Theater Magic. So I applied to work there. It was basically a glorified sales pitch. You would bring people off the street into the theater, do a 20 minute show, and then afterwards, you would say, now if you liked what you saw on the show, come on over to the gift shop and you can buy everything you just saw. So it was like, it was a glorified sales pitch, but it was a great way to learn audience management. For that particular, you know, obviously acting is totally different. You're not acknowledging the audience, typically. But when you're a magician, it's a whole new world of, all right, now I gotta make sure everybody in this audience, you know, is on board. There's no hecklers, the people that wanna, you know, oh, I see the wire, you know, whatever. So it's a whole new way to figure out how to manage the audience. So that was a great learning skill. And I just love doing it. I still do it to this day. It's a fun hobby, but I don't do it professional anymore. But yeah, maybe four years I did that. Were you sawing a woman in half? Did you do stuff like that? No, no, no, no, no. It was, uh, it wasn't big stage illusions. It was card tricks, uh, coin tricks, mentalism, reading minds, stuff like that. Oh, that's cool. Yeah. Yeah. Did you, so, like, reading minds, like, was that something that stuck with you? No, I can't do it right now. No, I can't. Okay. Okay. All right. Cool. I'm not reading your mind. However, I do have, like, do you want to see something? Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Here, I'll show you something because, uh, literally I've been getting back into it. So I'm going to try this out here. If I fail, cut this out. Okay. Hold on. We got to, I'm going to try to make sure I can talk and keep this in focus here. All right. So we got a dollar, we got a $1 bill. Now, if you were here, if you were here, I would hand this to you and I would say, you know, check this out, make sure it's a legit $1 bill. Okay. And I would tell you, this is actually a counterfeit bill. And you'd go, it's a counterfeit bill. I'd say, yeah, here, hold it. Check it out. Make sure it's, it seems real, but it's really not real. And you'd go, okay. And then you'd hand it back to me. And I'd say, all right, here we go. This is why it's a counterfeit bill. Because if you fold it, right, fold it up in just the right way, you can actually, if you get it just right, oh, wow. Wow. That's amazing. You just turned that into a hundred dollar bill. Right there. And so that's the kind of stuff, that's the kind of stuff I like to do. Do you just go to the bank and be like, here, let me give me that $7. Oh, here you are. I just paid for everything. No, that's awesome. That's really cool. I'm not going to ask you how you did it, but that is just, that's really cool. It's sleight of hand. It's stuff that I like to, I like to... No, I understand what it is, but that's great. It's like a piano player. It's like, you don't want to ever stop knowing how to play the piano. And I always like to make sure that my hands are, I don't know what the word is, but they're always at the ready to do something sleight of handy. So taking it back to the Terminator stuff, what is it about those films that just speak to you, that you wanted to do podcasts about it and you wanted to talk about it? Well, specifically why I wanted to do a podcast was because I think at that point, I couldn't find a podcast that was dedicated to it. And I had determined because this is who I am. I think I sat down one day and I was like, what is my favorite movie of all time? And I argued with myself. I was like, I think it is either. I think at that point I said T2. Now it's The Terminator. It's always back and forth. But I was like, yeah, Terminator. I think it's, I just love what it stands for. I love the films themselves. I love the messages of the film. No fate. You make your fate. Nothing is predetermined. The other films kind of go back on that, but whatever. And so I was like, okay, cool. So there's got to be a podcast where someone's kind of geeking out about this, getting real sweaty. And there wasn't. And I was like, what? So I kind of figured, okay, I'll fix that. And then the idea to reach out to people from the films, that just kind of naturally came after I was three, four or five episodes in. And I was like, I don't think I can sustain this if it's just me talking about my theories or whatever. And to get a bigger audience, you want to get people from the films because those are going to bring in more people. And so that was just a natural thing to be like, all right, well. And my first guest was Brett Azar, who unfortunately was in Terminator Genisys as Arnold's double for the recreated 1984 scene. And he also went into dark fate for the flashback where he kills John Connor. But I say unfortunately, because it's the films. He's cool. Brett Azar is very cool. But yeah. And then from that point on, I've talked to Jesus, William Wisher, the co-writer of T2. I've talked to Jeanette Goldstein. She's a friend of the podcast and John Bruno and Ed Marsh. These are all Cameron friends and collaborators. So usually the way it works, maybe similar to how you do your podcasting, you would understand this. One person has a good experience and then either they suggest somebody or you ask, hey, can you get me in touch with somebody? And because they had a good experience, they'll be like, yeah, of course. Yeah. Please like, share and subscribe.

Shola von Reinhold is the author of LOTE, a novel about getting lost in the archives and finding what the archives have lost. LOTE won the 2021 James Tait Black prize so who better to join Shola on Novel Dialogue than Ben Bateman of Edinburgh University, lead judge of the prize committee? This conversation takes listeners back to all yesterday's parties as Shola, Ben, and Aarthi time travel to the Harlem Renaissance and the interwar modernist era. Shola offers up Richard Bruce Nugent as their current figure of fascination (or “transfixion” to use a key image from LOTE), and wonders what it would have been like to move through Harlem and London by Nugent's side. Recovering the stories of black writers and artists is essential to Shola's literary project. It is also inseparable from restoring queerness to the once hyper-masculine and “muscular” paradigm of modernism. In a stirring discussion of the aesthetic forms and moods of historical recovery, Ben and Shola sink into the “purpleness” of the fin-de-siècle and explore the critical power of black sensuousness. Talk of decadence, ornamentality, and frivolity shapes the latter half of this episode, and Doris Payne, the West Virginian jewel thief, emerges as an exquisitely improbable modernist heroine! Mentioned in this episode: -Richard Bruce Nugent -Dorothy Heyward and DuBose Heyward, Porgy -E.M. Forster -David Levering Lewis, When Harlem was in Vogue -Saidiya Hartman -Benjamin Kahan, The Book of Minor Perverts -James Joyce, Ulysses -Willa Cather, “Paul's Case” -Ornamentality via Kant, Hegel, and Adolf Loos -Susan Sontag -Doris Payne – a.k.a “Diamond Doris” -Édouard Glissant Aarthi Vadde is Associate Professor of English at Duke University.

Shola von Reinhold is the author of LOTE, a novel about getting lost in the archives and finding what the archives have lost. LOTE won the 2021 James Tait Black prize so who better to join Shola on Novel Dialogue than Ben Bateman of Edinburgh University, lead judge of the prize committee? This conversation takes listeners back to all yesterday's parties as Shola, Ben, and Aarthi time travel to the Harlem Renaissance and the interwar modernist era. Shola offers up Richard Bruce Nugent as their current figure of fascination (or “transfixion” to use a key image from LOTE), and wonders what it would have been like to move through Harlem and London by Nugent's side. Recovering the stories of black writers and artists is essential to Shola's literary project. It is also inseparable from restoring queerness to the once hyper-masculine and “muscular” paradigm of modernism. In a stirring discussion of the aesthetic forms and moods of historical recovery, Ben and Shola sink into the “purpleness” of the fin-de-siècle and explore the critical power of black sensuousness. Talk of decadence, ornamentality, and frivolity shapes the latter half of this episode, and Doris Payne, the West Virginian jewel thief, emerges as an exquisitely improbable modernist heroine!
