Drew and Rory start with eyeball horror, Stranger Things hype, and the idea of AI-powered contact lenses before stumbling straight into the real mind-melt: Midjourney, Grok Imagine, Mystic 3, and Flux all colliding in one episode. They roast their own prompts, trigger an accidental NSF-DoubleU moment live inside Grok, argue about “flux face,” and still somehow manage to pull out real, practical tips for people trying to make better AI images without losing their minds.Across an hour of chaos, they unpack Midjourney v8's subtle shifts, hidden personalization signals, Style Explorer tricks, Smart Search shortcuts, Grok's Sora-style infinite feed, Mystic 3's scary-good skin detail, and why Midjourney still owns lo-fi, lived-in, “shot-on-a-phone” energy. If you care about composition, cinematic ratios, editorial portraits, food realism, or just want to hear two people dunk on Flux and node editors while actually teaching you something, this one hits.Listeners will come away knowing how to use stills archive for composition, when to skip upscales for more analog realism, how Grok Imagine's image + video workflow really behaves, and where Mystic 3 can replace Midjourney in a serious portrait or product stack.--⏱️ Midjourney Fast Hour0:00 Intro, eyeballs, and a Friday brain check2:05 Contact lens horror stories, Mission Impossible, Black Mirror eyes3:07 Stranger Things Season 5 hype and binge vs weekly TV4:51 Movies, biopics, sports docs, and couch season setting in6:23 Cowboys documentary, sports pipelines, and TV as passive story feed7:00 AI overload, nobody keeping up, and why this pod exists8:30 Midjourney profiles, Style Creator, and new personalization talk9:29 Like/dislike buttons as hidden training data and 7:3 aspect ratio love10:35 Stills Archive, cinematic framing, and cleaner compositions12:00 Style Explorer vs old-school SREF and what quietly vanished13:16 Three under-the-radar Midjourney Smart Search + right-click + Option-upscale tweaks15:35 V8, fewer wall-of-text prompts, and a move toward visual controls18:12 First look at Grok Imagine's interface and infinite scroll feel19:35 Sora-style endless bottom feed, variants, and “make video” in Grok22:51 Cinematic looks, color grading, and Grok as “idea and curate” engine24:19 Live NSFW surprise inside Grok Imagine and instant rating change25:23 Finding Grok history, stills, and video exports with sound26:31 Who actually gets Grok video and Drew's first real reaction to using it27:38 Mystic 3 enters the chat and upscaling less for analog vibes29:02 Why “too sharp” screams AI and how grain + smart detail saves realism30:18 Outpainting, editing, and why Midjourney still wins surgical compositing35:01 Mystic 3 V3 screen-share and first impressions35:45 Editorial portraits, skin detail, eyelashes, and hands that finally look human37:26 Mystic 3 model comparisons: Zen, State-of-the-Art, and weird description blur39:16 Zooming all the way into pores, fingerprints, and micro skin texture43:44 Cocktail and food prompts where Mystic falls behind Midjourney50:05 Nano Banana 2 rumors, native 4K wishes, and how Midjourney might respond50:58 Why Midjourney still rules lo-fi, disposable camera, and Polaroid-style shots52:16 Grok Imagine vs Flux vs Midjourney for lived-in Y2K flash photos53:39 Flux face, direct flash tests, and “go flux yourself” is born55:30 Nodes, Grok workflows, and why scrolling is faster than wiring graphs56:01 Why Midjourney is avoiding node-based interfaces on purpose57:05 Final sendoff: go flux yourself and get out of here

Le shutdown est fini, mais l'ambiance… comment dire… c'est plutôt “gueule de bois nucléaire”. Entre une tech hors de prix, un marché qui panique mais fait semblant de ne pas paniquer, Tesla en coma léger, Bitcoin en mode PLS avancée, les semi-conducteurs à l'hôpital et Ubisoft en blackout total… on se demande si on n'a pas tous raté un épisode. Et pourtant : les indices tiennent. Pas glorieux, mais debout. Comme un type qui a trop picolé et qui refuse de reconnaître qu'il aurait dû rentrer se coucher il y a trois heures. Dans cette vidéo, je te raconte : Pourquoi la séance d'hier a été l'une des pires de l'année Pourquoi tout le monde est devenu baissier d'un coup Pourquoi Nvidia pèse 16 % du PIB US (oui, tu as bien lu) Pourquoi Tesla souffre… et pourquoi ça ne devrait surprendre absolument personne Comment Trump solde le bœuf, les bananes et le café pour sauver sa côte d'amour Pourquoi les data centers deviennent les nouveaux “too big to fail” Et ce que nous raconte vraiment le chaos chez Ubisoft On est dans un marché qui tangue, qui flirte avec la panique, mais qui n'appuie toujours pas sur le bouton rouge. Est-ce le début du carnage… ou une opportunité en or ? Tu vas voir : la vérité est rarement là où tout le monde la cherche.

Will Bridges https://www.imdb.com/name/nm2782297/ shares his method for making every meeting an opportunity. And he explains what he did that let him come from 10 years of working random jobs and trying to make shorts here and there, to becoming the newly discovered talent, suddenly writing for hit series like “Black Mirror” and “Stranger Things” as well as being a co-creator with Charlie Brooker.Matt and Oren get Will to open up about what he learned from "Shaun of the Dead" and how those filmmakers pitched. And they break down the process of showing decision-makers a concept and the steps needed to get them to truly understand what it will look like, feel like, and clearly see the audiences it will resonate with.If you're looking for ideas to improve how you direct actors, you too will get a lot from this episode. And Will goes into the secret of freeing up established actors to do their best work.

Have you ever seen the Black Mirror episode called "Be right back"? It aired back in February 2013 and sees a character called Ash die in a car accident, leaving behind his pregnant wife Martha. During Ash's funeral, Martha's friend Sarah tells her about a company which creates AI versions of dead people, by using personal data they had shared online. Initially reluctant, Martha eventually caves in and tries the service. As a result, she's able to chat with an Android Ash as if he was alive. Now, Black Mirror is well known for delving into possible future technological developments, which are sometimes purely the stuff of fantasy. But the scenario portrayed in that particular episode may become widespread in the near future. Are we saying this may actually be possible then? Do businesses see a lot of potential in deadbots? In under 3 minutes, we answer your questions!

Είμαι ο Δημήτρης και ακούω τον γρύλο από το μικρόφωνο της Μαριλένας. Μαριλένα: [0:30] Τελικά είναι γρύλος ή συναγερμός; Δημήτρης: [0:32] Είναι ένας γρύλος, ο οποίος εδώ και εβδομάδες παίζει και ακούμε αυτό το [ήχος] [ήχος] που κάνει ένας γρύλος (ναι) και είμαι σχεδόν σίγουρος ότι προέρχεται από κάποιον συναγερμό αυτό το πράγμα, αλλά δεν μπορώ να το εντοπίσω με τίποτα. Μαριλένα: [0:46] Ξέρεις τι μου θύμισε αυτό τώρα, όπως το είπες; Είναι σαν να 'ναι ένας σιδερένιος, έτσι, γρύλος και θυμήθηκα εκείνο το απαίσιο επεισόδιο... λογικά απαίσιο αφού είναι «Black Mirror»... του «Black Mirror» με τις μεταλλικές μέλισσες. Άκου τώρα τι θυμήθηκα... Άσχετο! Δημήτρης: [1:04] Ναι, το επεισόδιο που είναι οι μέλισσες που έχουνε αντικαταστήσει τις πραγματικές μέλισσες νομίζω και κάπως χακάρονται και επιτίθενται σε όποιον γίνεται cancel. Κάπως έτσι δεν ήτανε; Μαριλένα: [1:20] Δεν θυμάμαι. Δεν θυμάμαι τώρα την ιστορία, αλλά ήταν η πρώτη μου επαφή με το «Black Mirror». Πρέπει να κάνουμε ένα podcast γι' αυτό, γιατί πολλοί Easy Greekers δεν το ξέρουνε και είχα φρικάρει. Θυμάμαι αυτό ότι δεν υπήρχαν πια μέλισσες στον πλανήτη και θα τις αντικατι-... αντικαθιστούσαν με αυτές τις μεταλλικές και ήταν πολύ δυστοπικό και... δεν ξέρω, αυτό μου θύμισε τώρα. Δημήτρης: [1:44] Ναι, δυστοπικά... δυστοπικά πράγματα. Μαριλένα: [1:48] Ε, σαν αυτά που συμβαίνουν. Δημήτρης: [1:50] Όπως μας έχει συνηθίσει το «Black Mirror». Μαριλένα: [1:52] Ναι. Δημήτρης: [1:53] Αλλά η τελευταία σεζόν του «Black Mirror» είναι πολύ ωραία, δεν την έχω δει όλη βέβαια. Βγήκε πριν κάποιους μήνες, αλλά είχε κάποια επεισόδια φοβερά! Δηλαδή... μου μείνανε! Νομίζω ότι μετά από κάποια σεζόν που 'χε κάνει κοιλιά το «Black Mirror», η τελευταία πάλι είναι εξαιρετική. Μου θύμισε το παλιό καλό «Black Mirror». Μαριλένα: [2:12] Ωραία. Ίσως και να το δούμε μαζί. Δημήτρης: [2:14] Κάποια στιγμή, ναι. Λοιπόν, Μαριλού, σήμερα θα μιλήσουμε για διάφορα πραγματάκια, αλλά πριν μιλήσουμε για τα διάφορα πραγματάκια (ναι), θέλουμε να συζητήσουμε... Ναι, πες εσύ!

When does comedy become more than a laugh? Ben Mangrum of MIT joins RtB to discuss his new book, The Comedy of Computation: Or, How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love Obsolescence (Stanford UP, 2025), which in some ways is organized around “the intriguing idea that human knowledge work is our definitive feature and yet the machines we are ourselves made are going to replace us at it.” Comedy has provided a toolbox (Charles Tilly calls them "collective repertoires") for responding to the looming obsolescence of knowledge workers.John's interest in Menippean satire within science fiction leads him to ask about about the sliding meanings of comedy and its pachinko machine capacity; he loves the way Ben uses the word and concept of doubling,; Ben explains how the computer may either queer (in an antisocial way) or get assimilated into romantic heteronormative pairings. John asks about Donna Haraway's 1985 A Cyborg Manifesto and teh way it denaturalizes gender roles and the way new technological affordances (from the Acheulean axe that Malafouris discusses to the Apple watch) redefine human roles. Ben delves into the minstrelsy pre-history of the photo-robots going as far back as the late 19th century. They unpack the distinctively American Leo Marxian optimism of The Machine in the Garden (1964) that spreads back as far as the proto-robots like The Steam Man of the Prairies(1868) and good old Tik-Tok in the Wizard of Oz novels. John asks about double-edged nature of Ben's claim that comic “genericity provides forms for making a computationally mediated social world seem more habitable, even as it also provides Is for criticizing and objecting to that world." First you get description says Ben--and then sometimes critique. John asks about the iterability of the new: how much of what seems new actually New New (in the sense of that great 1999 Michael Lewis book, The New New Thing)? Mentioned in the episode: The Desk Set a play William Marchand and a movie starring Katherine Hepburn. How might a computer be incorporated into the sociability of a couple? Her (Spike Jonze,, 2013) computer meets human makes the rom-com into a coupling machine. WarGames (1983( ends with Matthew Broderick and Ally Sheedy (not Ione Skye—silly John!) paired. But also with Broderick and the formerly deadly computer settling down to “how about a nice game of chess”? Black Mirror as the 2020's version of the same dark satire as the 1950's Twilight Zone. John asks about Stanislaw Lem's Cyberiad, and the comic coupling of Kirk and Spock and the death-as-computer comedy of Douglas Adam's Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy (1979). Leo Marx, The Machine in the Garden (1964). Dave Eggers: the joke structure as critique in The Circle and The Every. John Saybrook wrote in the New Yorker about an eye-opening conversation with Bill Gates in 1994. Istvan Csicsery-Ronay's Seven Beauties of Science Fiction on the “fictionalization of everyday life" Recallable Books: Elif Batuman The Idiot (2017) Richard Powers, Plowing the Dark (2000) Sally Rooney, Conversations with Friends (2017) Listen and Read here.

You'll know Letitia Wright from her standout roles in Black Panther, Wakanda Forever, Black Mirror and Top Boy. She won the BAFTA Rising Star award in 2019 and is currently starring in Not Your Superwoman at The Bush Theatre, London. But Letitia's journey hasn't always been lined with red carpets. Born in Guyana and raised in Tottenham, North London, she's faced her share of challenges including depression, anxiety and experiencing the pressure to fit in from a young age. In this episode, Letitia opens up about dealing with online bullying, rejection and the lessons she's learned along the way. She speaks powerfully about the importance of faith, friendship and resilience, sharing how those pillars helped shape the person she is today. ✨ IN THIS EPISODE: 02:36 Childhood Memories 11:44 Audition Failures 22:20 Online Bullying and Its Impact 24:40 Struggles with Acting Roles 25:53 Dealing with Negative Thoughts 26:51 Overcoming College Torment 28:59 Finding Purpose in Acting 30:12 Battling Depression 35:41 Directing Debut Challenges 43:36 Processing Grief and Moving Forward

If a technology existed that matched you with your soul mate – the one true person you're destined to be with – would you take it? Would it lead you to your happily-ever-after? Or is love too vast and complicated a thing to be pared down to a science like that? These are the questions posed by All Of You, a new romantic drama by our guests today, William Bridges and Brett Goldstein. William is a writer-director you may well know from his contributions to the shows like Black Mirror and Stranger Things. Brett, meanwhile, is the writer-performer known for Ted Lasso, in which he plays hardman Roy Kent. He's also the co-creator of Apple TV's Shrinking and hosts a very entertaining podcast named Films To Be Buried With. In All Of You, Brett plays Simon – a journalist whose best friend is a woman named Laura. The pair have undeniable chemistry but their timelines have never quite aligned, romantically. Instead, when the film begins, their relationship is strictly platonic. Laura has found her supposed 'one true love,' according to science. But something remains unresolved – Simon and Laura's attraction to each other unable to be fully dimmed. The film began life in 2013 as a short that later was developed into an AMC anthology series named Soulmates, which lasted one season. In the spoiler conversation you're about to hear, Brett and Will reflect on that journey to this feature version of the script – what it was they just couldn't quit about this concept and these characters, whether they'd take the test themselves, how their attitudes towards the idea of soul mates have shifted over time. Plus, of course, what it is that's happening in the heads and hearts of our two protagonists during the film's heartbreaking final scene.

While we kick off Season 3, check out the killer horror anthology OMINOUS THRILL by Jeff Schmidt! Ominous Thrill is a multi-award winning anthology of dark fiction, horror, thrillers, and suspense brought to life with exceptional actors and vivid sound. It's like Black Mirror meets American Horror Story, where the monster is always close to home. Here's my favorite episode: SECRET IN SILVER FALLS When mysterious blasts rock the small town of Silver Falls in 1984, two nuclear engineers, and their teen daughter must confront suspicious townsfolk and survive the horrific results of their secretive work. This Cold War-era creature feature blends a bit of the horror classic “The Thing” with a sprinkle of “Annihilation,” a dash of “Them,” and a sprig of “Lovecraft Country.” Stir well, and enjoy!

In this ClockingOut live stream, we went deep on a question everyone faces: what's harder starting something new or coming back after a break?From doubles at work, falling out of routines, and forcing ourselves back into old habits, to conversations about parenting, tech privacy, Roblox, streaming, Apple updates and how social media is changing this episode is full of raw honesty and real talk.We also hit on topics like:.The struggle of staying consistent with fitness, work and passion projects.Technology's double edge: convenience vs. privacy.The future of social media (subscriptions, ads, and paywalls).Nostalgia for old tech vs. the endless “updates” cycle.Why movies like Black Mirror, Lost in Space, and Star Trek feel closer to reality than fictionOf course, we kept it fun with shoutouts to supporters, random laughs, and even a little chaos toward the end.If you missed it live, tune in now and don't forget: supporters in the chat claimed ClockingOut Hustle Proof POAP #6, which doubles as this week's raffle entry.Each POAP = 1 entry toward this week's VeeFriends graded card giveaway.

“You have to love all your characters. Even if you're writing a bad guy. You, the writer, have to write them with love and empathy, and treat each character, give each character, a full life and a full arc in your story, even if their screen time is small. Essentially, if you were following that character, they also have a full story, a full life,” says actor/writer Brett Goldstein about how he approaches writing characters in film and TV.  On today's episode, we chat with writer/director Will Bridges and writer/actor Brett Goldstein about their new film All of You, starring Imogen Poots and Brett Goldstein. The film centers on two best friends, Laura and Simon, who harbor an unspoken love for one another even after a futuristic test matches one of them up with their supposed soulmate. Though the set-up of the story sounds like science-fiction, the movie stays firmly grounded in reality and examines the human need for love and how we often sabotage that love.  If you're a fan of the show Black Mirror, you likely know Will Bridges' Emmy-winning episode “USS Callister,” the only Black Mirror episode to get a sequel. Brett Goldstein is perhaps most famous for playing Roy Kent on Ted Lasso, where he was a writer on the show before acting on it. He talks about his self-taped audition for the show and how taking that one risk changed everything for him.   Bridges and Goldstein talk about working together on an early project where they were forced to bunk in a “spider infested Airbnb,” and they also discuss the nuances of their writing in the film All of You, including why they left out all exposition. “We never wanted to be too specific about where Simon and Laura are in their relationship, but we want to draw you in quickly. We want you playing detective: Where are they now? What's going on with them? So we just trusted the audience would get it,” Bridges says.  They also discuss why you never see Laura or Simon separate from each other. “One of the rules of the film,” says Goldstein, “we only see them when they're together. We don't see their lives when they're apart, and that's kind of fun and interesting to me, that we are watching the film of them. We are not watching the film of what it's like to be Simon, what's it like to be Laura, we only know what it's like to be them.” To hear more, listen to the podcast.

A journalist. A forgotten 90s video game. A murder that won't stay buried. Plaything scratches at the edges of sentience, control, and what it means to upgrade humanity. Join us as we peel back the layers of Black Mirror's latest twist—and wonder whether the ending is hopeful, terrifying, or something in between.

LOOK OUT! It's only Films To Be Buried With! Join your host Brett Goldstein as he talks life, death, love and the universe with the glorious writer, producer and director WILL BRIDGES! As the pre-victory lap continues in celebration of the release of All Of You continues, Brett is joined by colleague and friend Will who directed it and worked on the writing side. Naturally you can expect some fabulous behind the scenes gossip from the set (sometimes a studio, sometimes the great wild outdoors), as well as loads to do with the process from all angles, but alongside that we get to hear about ADR grunts, misjudged horrors from Dad, Isle Of Wight repping, what got him into the whole wide world of media, and being a highly tuned beepboop emotion robot. It's a joy from start to end, and for those excited to see / to have seen All Of You, consider this another episode in your podcast companion series! ⁠Video and extra audio available on Brett's Patreon!

Quello che è stato profetizzato da serie come Black Mirror, oggi è realtà. Molto facilmente chiunque può creare un clone digitale di se stesso che possa "rappresentarlo" dopo la morte, interagire con i suoi cari. Ne parliamo con Davide Sisto, filosofo e tanatologo.

On this episode of the Blue Alchemist podcast, Siquoyia Blue dives into Jordan Peele's Out There Screaming, an anthology of Black horror stories that fuse folklore, history, and speculative dread. Featured tales explore racist violence, ancestral magic, domestic monsters, restless spirits, and a digital paradise that becomes a prison. Through close readings of standout stories, the episode argues that horror can reveal harsh truths and resilience, imagining the collection as a potential Black Mirror–style series and asking listeners to consider where they would rather face danger: on the bus or in the dark outside.   Subscribe to Blu Alchemist Podcast Substack Newsletter: https://siquoyiablue.substack.com/ Podcast ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Website: https://www.blualchemistpodcast.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Siquoyia Blue Website: https://siquoyiablue.komi.io⁠⁠⁠⁠ YouTube: @blualchemistpodcast Buy Dating Assassins Card Game: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.datingassassins.com ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ If you want to either be a guest on or find guests for your podcast, please sign up here: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.joinpodmatch.com/siquoyia⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Donate via Cashapp: @KingSiquoyia or Venmo: @KingShay Thanks for listening!
