Podcasts about Blade Runner

Send a textExplore the chaotic and visionary mind of Philip K. Dick, the legendary author behind Blade Runner, Total Recall, and Minority Report. In this episode of The Day's Grimm, Brian Michael Day and Thomas Grimm dive deep into a life that was arguably weirder than the science fiction stories it inspired.From the tragic infancy of his twin sister to his final days on the cusp of Hollywood fame, Philip K. Dick (PKD) lived on the edge of reality. We examine the "amphetamine-fueled" writing sessions where he produced up to 11 novels in two years, his five failed marriages, and the deep-seated paranoia that led him to believe the FBI was monitoring his every move.A central focus of this deep dive is the bizarre 1974 "2-3-74" event, where Dick claimed a pink beam of light transmitted divine information directly into his brain. This experience sparked an 8,000-page journal known as the Exegesis, where he wrestled with questions about ancient Rome, Gnosticism, and the nature of our reality—decades before "The Matrix" made these concepts mainstream.Whether he was a prophetic genius or a man struggling with substance-induced psychosis, PKD's influence on modern pop culture is undeniable. Join us as we break down the drugs, the delusions, and the legacy of the man who dared to ask: "What is real?" If you enjoyed this deep dive into PKD's chaotic life, hit the subscribe button and drop a comment below letting us know which author or historical figure we should cover next! TIMELINE: 00:00 - Introduction to Philip K.

The full scale invasion of Ukraine began four years ago today. Ukraine Unbroken is an evening of five new plays written in response to the war. David Edgar talks about his, Five Day War, which imagines the puppet government waiting to move in when Kviv falls, and the other dramas. Between the plays Ukrainian musician Mariia Petrovska sings and plays the bandura. She talks about her involvement and the bandura, the national instrument that was once banned. And Mariia plays and sings live in the studio.As Oscar-winning British cinematographer Sir Roger Deakins looks back at his career through his visual memoir Reflections: On Cinematography, he talks to Samira about his practical and inventive approach to working on many iconic films such as 1984, O Brother Where Art Thou, 1917, tackling sci fi on Bladerunner 2049 and Bond with Skyfall. The government has announced the introduction of new legisation to introduce monitoring by Ofcom of streaming services. Front Row explores the implcations of this.And we consider the novels selected for the International Booker Prize longlist, announced today with writer and head judge Natasha Brown. The books in contention are: The Nights Are Quiet in Tehran by Shida Bazyar, translated from German by Ruth Martin We Are Green and Trembling by Gabriela Cabezón Cámara, translated from Spanish by Robin Myers The Remembered Soldier by Anjet Daanje, translated from Dutch by David McKay The Deserters by Mathias Énard, translated from French by Charlotte Mandell Small Comfort by Ia Genberg, translated from Swedish by Kira Josefsson She Who Remains by Rene Karabash, translated from Bulgarian by Izidora Angel The Director by Daniel Kehlmann, translated from German by Ross Benjamin On Earth As It Is Beneath by Ana Paula Maia, translated from Portuguese by Padma Viswanathan The Duke by Matteo Melchiorre, translated from Italian by Antonella Lettieri The Witch by Marie NDiaye, translated from French by Jordan Stump Women Without Men by Shahrnush Parsipur, translated from Persian by Faridoun Farrokh The Wax Child by Olga Ravn, translated from Danish by Martin Aitken Taiwan Travelogue by Yáng Shuāng-zǐ, translated from Mandarin Chinese by Lin KingPresenter: Samira Ahmed Producer: Julian May

Conforme avanzamos hacía el año de 1983, nos vamos topando con escoria rebelde dadas las películas de #BladeRunner, #RockyIII, #Caracortada y #StarWars #ElRetornodelJedi. Quiero creer que es demasiado obvio para especificarlo, así sólo queda disfrutarlos como yo lo hizo al repasarlas de nuevo.

The Spin Chagrin, a concept that finds Frank having to watch a movie he's never seen before based on the random spin of a wheel filled with off-the-wall genres, continues into its fourth year. All the categories are quotables from Frank himself. In this episode, Frank's category was "Scoop Legs." For this, he reviewed the Lifetime movie Oscar Pistorius: Blade Runner Killer from 2017, co-written by Buffy's Amber Benson.

What if the loudest stories about the future—AI gods, Mars colonies, digital immortality—aren't science at all, but science fiction masquerading as inevitability? In this episode of The Radical Candor Podcast, Kim Scott and Amy Sandler are joined by science journalist and astrophysicist Adam Becker (PhD in computational cosmology), author of More Everything Forever. Adam breaks down the “big three” myths that dominate Silicon Valley's imagination: space colonization, superintelligent god-like AI, and the singularity. He explains why both the utopian and apocalyptic versions of AI stories often share the same assumption—unimaginable AI power—and why that assumption doesn't match reality. They also explore the deeper pattern underneath these myths: the belief that every problem can be solved with technology (usually computer technology), even when the barriers are political and social—collective action, persuasion, solidarity, and power. Along the way, Adam shares how he stayed sane while writing about “seriously disturbing ideas,” and why reconnecting with the natural world (and real human relationships) is a necessary antidote to screen-mediated life. If you've ever felt overwhelmed by the “AI will save us” vs. “AI will doom us” debate, this conversation offers a clearer, more grounded frame—and a reminder that being human matters. ⁠⁠⁠⁠Website⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠Instagram⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠TikTok⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠LinkedIn⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠YouTube⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Bluesky⁠⁠⁠ Resources for show notes: ⁠Adam Becker's website⁠ ⁠More, Everything, Forever book page⁠ ⁠Adam Becker on Star Talk podcast⁠ ⁠Dave Troy presents: Understanding TESCREAL with Dr. Timnit Gebru and Émile Torres⁠ ⁠Why Silicon Valley's Most Powerful People Are So Obsessed With Hobbits⁠ Referenced in conversation: Blade Runner (as an example of dystopian sci-fi being misunderstood) Star Wars / Jabba the Hutt (as an example of misreading stories) Lord of the Rings / Palantír (as a cautionary reference) Jurassic Park (“they didn't stop to consider whether they should”) Public libraries (as a civic good worth supporting) Chapters: (00:00) Introduction Kim and Amy welcome Adam Becker to unpack Silicon Valley's stories about the future.

Joanna Cassidy has never fit neatly into one lane, and that is exactly why she is unforgettable. In this episode of Still Here Hollywood, Joanna takes us from Syracuse University as an art student to a cross-country leap that landed her in Los Angeles and changed everything. She talks about her first film set experience with Walter Matthau and Bruce Dern, the shock of realizing she could actually act, and how her creative life has always lived in two worlds, performance and painting. We also dive into the legacy roles that keep getting rediscovered. Joanna shares what it was like stepping into Blade Runner as Zhora, working with Ridley Scott's meticulous vision, and why that film's impact only grew with time. She opens up about Six Feet Under and her love of dark humor, the craft difference between comedy and drama, the realities of aging in Hollywood, and what she believes keeps a creative person alive. Plus: animals, modernism, bungee fitness in Burbank, and the mindset that keeps her curious and working. Still Here Hollywood with Steve Kmetko. New episodes weekly.

Episode 122 - Welcome back to DePalma month. This week we are joined by one of our old friends OOTim. If you enjoyed OOTim's analytical breakdown of Blade Runner, then you are sure to enjoy his breakdown of a less analyzed film; The Fury (1977). The Fury is DePalma's lesser known psychic supernatural thriller film that came out in the mid-1970's. The more well-known version of this would be Carrie (1976). We do have a supplemental style discussion of Carrie towards the end of this one, but do tune in for our explosive discussion of The Fury.And tune in next week for our discussion of Blow Out (1981) and the supplemental Snake Eyes (1998). You know how much we love Nick Cage here at MRAC so a discussion could pop up.We also may be joined by another special guest!email us at mracfilmclub@gmail.com

Four Play begins a brand-new Cyberpunk Arc with a deep dive into Blade Runner: one of the most influential science-fiction films ever made. Released in 1982, Blade Runner didn't just define cyberpunk aesthetics,  it also reshaped how cinema explores identity, consciousness, artificial intelligence, capitalism, and what it means to be human. Decades later, its themes feel more relevant than ever. Visit https://prizepicks.onelink.me/LME0/FOURPLAY and use code FOURPLAY and get $50 in lineups when you play your first $5 lineup!

In this episode of the show we are transitioning from discussing 80's fantasy to our February deep dive into 80's dystopian science-fiction. And you couldn't really ask for a better movie to kick off this series than the Ridley Scott-directed Blade Runner. Over the course of our conversation, which was just as ethereal and meandering as the movie itself, you will hear us talk about the many troubles this iconic cult classic faced when released, how the movie stacks up against the book, and where it brings novel material to the table. We also discuss Harrison Ford as a noir detective who wonders if he is real, Rutger Hauer as a haunting presence, the perils of listening to Vangelis while falling asleep and also how the movie prompted some of us to question the fabric of reality and wonder if we are all replicants after all.

This week, we review Blade Runner (1982), Ridley Scott's neo-noir sci-fi masterpiece that redefined the genre. Harrison Ford stars as Rick Deckard, a weary “blade runner” tasked with hunting down rogue replicants in a dystopian Los Angeles.

In our first episode of 2026, we return to one of Blade Runner 2049's most quietly devastating moments: K's memory of the Morricole orphanage, and what that memory actually means within the larger story at play. On the surface, we're watching a synthetic being (whatever a Replicant ultimately is) recount a memory he knows to be false to his superior officer. But this retelling doesn't happen freely. It happens under pressure. Under surveillance. Under the constant threat of erasure. And in that moment, the scene crystallizes something essential about K's existence: the psychic cost of obedience in a world governed by deeply unhappy, emotionally stunted humans. What begins as a test of authenticity becomes something far more unsettling. A performance of belief. A ritual of submission. A reminder that even false memories can carry real emotional weight and that belief itself may be more dangerous than truth. In this discussion, we peel back the layers of that scene and uncover implications that reach far beyond the orphanage. We talk about memory as control, trauma as programming, and why Blade Runner 2049 insists that meaning doesn't come from whether something is “real,” but from how it changes the one who carries it. This conversation surprised us. It took us places we hadn't anticipated, and it reshaped how we understand K, Wallace's world, and the fragile boundary between human suffering and manufactured experience. We hope you enjoy the discussion, and as always, thank you for listening. // For more on this and our other projects, please visit www.bladerunnerpodcast.com  // If you'd like to join the conversation, find us on our closed Facebook group: Fields of Calantha. // To support the show, please consider visiting www.bladerunnerpodcast.com/support.

Brand expert, author, internationally recognized designer, and TEDx speaker Kevin Finn joins the show to talk about Blade Runner starring Harrison Ford, Rutger Hauer, Sean Young, Edward James Olmos, M. Emmet Walsh, Daryl Hannah, Brion James, and Joanna Cassidy. Deckard, played by Harrison Ford, is brought back to an elite unit that hunts and retires rogue Replicants, bioengineered beings virtually identical to humans but often used for slave labor. We also discuss the movies Alien and Aliens, as well as Blade Runner 2049 and Barry Lyndon.-Kevin Finn is a brand expert, author, internationally recognized branding designer and TEDx speaker. Having begun his career in Dublin, he later moved to Sydney, where he became Joint-Creative Director of Saatchi Design, part of the Saatchi & Saatchi global network.

Kolb, and Neil Harbisson, a real-life cyborg, among many others. During a time when weblogs and Tumblrs had overtaken the design landscape Open Manifesto's print publication was a refreshing approach. In 2022, Open Manifesto, An Anthology was published by Formist. In 2007, Finn founded his independent design practice, TheSumOf, in remote Australia before moving to Brisbane in 2010, where he now lives and works.

MONSTER PARTY POWERS UP AN OLD TOPIC! JAMES GONIS, SHAWN SHERIDAN, LARRY STROTHE, and MATT WEINHOLD revisit one of their earliest talking points! It's a celebration of mechanics, synthetics, and cybernetics, certified to scramble your circuitry called… ROBOTS REBOOTED!!! During the first year of MONSTER PARTY, when the show was recorded on a stone slab with a live pterodactyl beak, we did an episode simply titled… ROBOTS!!! The show was quite a bit shorter than our current entries, but displayed a primitive charm that would soon morph into what can only be described as a juggernaut of charisma. But now, with over a decade of experience under our belts, and robots and A.I. on the verge of making the world of TERMINATOR a reality, we knew this was the right time hit this subject again. Aside from discussing some of the most beloved robots from film and TV history, like Robby from Forbidden Planet, B-9 from Lost In Space, Gort from The Day The Earth Stood Still, and C-3PO and R2-D2 from Star Wars, we'll also focus on the world of androids and cyborgs. We're talking Data from Star Trek: Next Generation, the replicants of Blade Runner, The Daleks from Doctor Who, Bender from Futurama, Robocop, The Terminator, and more! And by more, we mean toys, of course. Joining us for this robotic rager is a guest making his MONSTER PARTY debut! He's an amazingly talented comedian, writer, actor, columnist, and activist, who also happens to be an award-winning hip-hop artist and juggler. Please welcome to the show… NGAIO BEALUM! (THE SARAH SILVERMAN PROGRAM, STAB!, COMICS UNLEASHED, CANNABIS PLANET) IF YOUR SAFE WORDS ARE "GORT VARINGA," THIS EPISODE WILL DEFINITELY COMPUTE!

Last time we took a diversion to talk about Blade Runner after Kojima talked it up in the Creative Gene, so of course it'd be foolish of us to not talk about it's surprisingly great, years later sequel: Blade Runner 2049. And we have so much to say about it, from it's many great performances (and one notable bad one), it's amazing production, our various feelings about the ending, and the one universal truth: Dave Bautista is the man.Episode 77: If Only He Tried Acting

Mark Mangini is a six-time Oscar-nominated, two-time Oscar-winning Sound Designer. He won his Oscars for Dune and Mad Max Fury Road. Mark's also well known for designing sound for numerous films, including: Blade Runner 2049, Star Treks I, IV and V, Beauty and the Beast, TheFifthElement, Space Jam, Poltergeist,Gremlins, Aladdin, and Raiders of the Lost Ark, among many more.Mark has spent his 49-year career in Hollywood imagining and composing altered sonic realities for motion pictures. He's a frequent lecturer, an outspoken proponent for sound as art, and a guitarist/songwriter with compositions that can be heard in sex, lies and videotape, Star Trek IV, and more.Mark believes that all organized sound is music. He sees his work in movies as every bit a composition as those of Beethoven and the Beatles. He just happens to use dissonance, melodic content and arrhythmia to its fullest advantage. His work is no less considered, designed, created or manipulated. It just isn't usually what we think of as hummable.His first job in the entertainment industry was at the age of 19 in the sound department of Hanna Barbera Studios making funny noises for children's cartoons. His ears have been keenly trained by years of language study and playing guitar, which suited him well for a career of critical listening and creating unimagined aural worlds and fabricating sonic realities for motion pictures.Mark founded and ran the successful post-production sound company, Weddington Productions, for 25 years. Today he works at Formosa Group in Hollywood, continuing his work as a Supervising Sound Editor, Sound Designer and Re-recording mixer.
