Matt and Jordan review Netflix's massive true crime tabloid horror hit, The Crash, a direct-to-streaming look at the tragic Mackenzie Sherilla case. Jordan walks away feeling like he needs a shower for his soul, while Matt thanks his lucky stars that social media didn't exist when he was a youngster. For Rec Seg, Matt challenges the "drek" of the true crime genre by recommending an Oscar-nominated Netflix doc and Jordan counters with a 2018 indie drama that offers a nuanced take on the endless scroll. Listener requests yield recommendations for a 1945 "hardcore British" romance and 2012 Sundance indie featuring an ex-con who hangs out with a robot. Finally, Producer Sam steps in to host a true crime-inspired game called If You Can't Do the Time, Don't Watch the True Crime (on Amazon Prime). Plus, dabbing, dad jokes, and brief thoughts on box office phenomenons Backrooms and Obsession, and Masters of the Universe.

In which the Mister joins me in reviewing EIGHTH GRADE (2018), from writer/director Bo Burnham.  An introverted teenager named Kayla (Elsie Fisher) navigates the final, agonizing week of middle school while filming upbeat self-help YouTube videos that mask her profound real-world social anxiety.  As she pushes herself into uncomfortable social situations—from high-stakes pool parties to daunting high school orientations—the film captures the visceral, sensory-rich awkwardness of being an adolescent in the digital age.  Amidst these pressures, Kayla struggles to bridge the gap between her curated online persona and her vulnerable private self, all while navigating a fragile, evolving connection with her well-meaning but overbearing father.  The film clocks in at 1 h and 33 m, is rated R and is currently in streaming and to buy/rent on Prime Video.  Please note there are SPOILERS in this review.#EighthGrade #BoBurnham #ElsieFisher #Kayla #JoshHamilton #Mark #EmilyRobinson #Olivia #JakeRyan #Gabe #CatherineOliviere #Kennedy #ComingOfAge #Comedy #Drama  @PrimeVideo  #FridayFamilyFilmNightOpening intro music: GOAT by Wayne Jones, courtesy of YouTube Audio Library

A fun cast that includes Dennis Franz, Barbara Crampton in her first role, Craig Wasson being convincingly pervy, and a fearless Melanie Griffith! All that and more in this unapologetically 80s thriller that explores the seedy underbelly of Hollywood, and may be the pinnacle of HitchSchlock! In addition, Tim recommends Sam Raimi's Send Help, K-Tron discusses the trippy 1961 film The Mask, while Alex gives his spoiler-free thoughts on Lee Cronin's The Mummy, the new Faces of Death, The Super Mario Galaxy Movie, and the Netflix shark thriller Thrash!

Why Are You Laughing?

George Carlin became one of the most influential stand-up comedians in history by constantly reinventing himself. In this episode of Why Are You Laughing?, we break down the full history of George Carlin, from his early radio work, Air Force years, and clean-cut beginnings to his rise as one of the most controversial and respected voices in stand-up comedy.We examine Carlin's early career as part of a comedy duo, his appearances on The Tonight Show Starring Johnny Carson, and how he first found success as a suit-and-tie comic inspired by performers like Danny Kaye. The episode then follows Carlin's transformation as drugs, counterculture, and frustration with traditional show business pushed him toward a new style of stand-up comedy.The discussion also dives into Carlin's battles over free speech, including his arrests and the legendary “Seven Dirty Words” routine that became a Supreme Court case and changed the boundaries of what comedians could say in public and on broadcast media.We also cover Carlin's landmark HBO specials and comedy albums, which revitalized his career and introduced him to new generations of fans, along with lesser-known chapters like his failed sitcom with Sam Simon and the financial struggles that followed.Finally, we look at where George Carlin belongs in the all-time rankings of stand-up comedy, comparing his legacy to figures like Richard Pryor and Lenny Bruce while examining his influence on later comedians such as Louis C.K. and Bo Burnham.This is a full comedy history deep dive into George Carlin's career, reinvention, controversies, and legacy — and why his voice still defines stand-up comedy today.FOR ALL THINGS BLIND MIKEhttp://blindmike.netFOR ALL THINGS CRAIGGERShttp://www.verygoodshow.orgFOR ALL THINGS HACKRIDEhttp://hackridethedemon.comFOR ALL THINGS DJ ELECTRA FRYhttp://djelectrafry.com

Welcome to another episode of Death Don't Do Fiction, the AIPT Movies podcast! The podcast about the enduring legacy of our favorite movies! This February we're continuing our new “Fast February” series, where we cover the movies that made Vin Diesel a star and taught the world to live their lives one quarter mile at a time, The Fast & Furious franchise! In this week's episode, Alex, Tim, and returning guest Bill Mueller discuss 2003's awkward attempt to recapture the magic of the surprisingly successful first movie, 2 Fast 2 Furious! An incredible title! Those silly visor hats! Pepsi and NOS product placement! Trying to pick up girls during a dangerous undercover mission! A Sound Designer-approved audio mix! Loud, somewhat gaudy visuals thanks to that clumsy early thousands aesthetic! A possible influence on the Wachowskis' Speed Racer movie! A larger budget but a less tangible story with somehow even cringier lines! A third act you'll barely remember! The introduction of characters who would go on to be staples of the series! John Singleton trying his hand at directing a silly blockbuster! Race obstacles that would lead to expensive automotive repairs! A great car jump stunt that's wasted due to poor editing and unnecessary visual effects! A cast that includes a returning Paul Walker, James Remar, Eva Mendes, a pre-Yellowstone Cole Hauser, Mark Boone Junior, Devon Aoki, Ludacris, and Tyrese Gibson starting out as somewhat of a Dom Toretto wannabe before finding his character as the movie goes on! The entry of the series with possibly the least sense of "family," you never realized you could miss Vin Diesel so much! In addition, Alex shares his spoiler-free thoughts on Crime 101, Psycho Killer, and the original Hunger Games quadrilogy!

#4 Greg Dember: Metamodernism and the Defence of Interiority

The Living Philosophy

"The protection of interiority is the central motivation of Metamodernism." So says Greg Dember, a Seattle-based musician, songwriter and independent researcher in Metamodernism. As the co-founder of the What Is Metamodern? website with Linda Ceriello, PhD, Greg's writing and podcast appearances speaking on metamodernism have helped popularize the terminology outside of academic discourse through accessible writing. He is the author of Say Hello To Metamodernism!: Understanding Today's Culture of Ironesty, Felt Experience, and Empathic Reflexivity (2024 Exact Rush). He is also a co-editor of the forthcoming multi-author volume, My Impossible Soul: The Metamodern Music of Sufjan Stevens (Bloomsbury/Lexington). He holds a BA (1987) from Yale University.____________Greg and Linda's Metamodern site - https://www.whatismetamodern.comGreg's article on the 11 methods of Metamodernism - https://medium.com/what-is-metamodern/after-postmodernism-eleven-metamodern-methods-in-the-arts-767f7b646cae Greg's book on Metamodernism - https://www.amazon.com/Say-Hello-Metamodernism-Understanding-Reflexivity/dp/B0DHGFKZ8W/__________In this conversation, I sit down with Greg to explore metamodernism as the cultural backdrop that's emerged since roughly 2000, taking over from postmodernism's ironic detachment. We discuss how metamodernism oscillates between modern earnestness and postmodern irony to defend the significance of interiority and felt experience. Greg introduces his framework of 11 metamodern methods—including empathic reflexivity and the double frame—and we examine how artists like the Daniels (Everything Everywhere All At Once), Wes Anderson, Bo Burnham, and even The Beatles navigate this territory. The conversation ranges from David Letterman's evolution to Don Quixote as a proto-metamodern text, exploring how this sensibility has spread from indie niches into mainstream culture, and what it means for how we make and experience art today._____________⏳Timestamps0:00 Episode Intro2:26 Greg's current work: Sufjan Stevens book3:26 What is metamodernism?

Send us a textMeet MacKenzie Lee, a Boston-based singer-songwriter who's crafting a unique musical identity she calls "dark pop." Stepping into our studio with the confidence of someone who's found her authentic voice, Mackenzie shares the winding path that led her from childhood singing to college acapella performances and finally to her current work with Red 13 Records.What makes MacKenzie's approach fascinating is her refusal to be boxed into conventional genres. Drawing inspiration from artists like Billie Eilish and Lana Del Rey, she's equally influenced by comedic musicians such as Bo Burnham and The Lonely Island—creative minds who blend impressive musical ability with clever, thought-provoking content. This unexpected combination hints at an artist determined to create music that's both emotionally resonant and intellectually engaging.The conversation takes us through Mackenzie's formative experiences, including how her acapella background trained her ear to deconstruct songs into their component parts. "You really learn to appreciate every single piece that goes into a song," she explains, describing how this shapes both her listening habits and creative process today. We also discover the emotional significance behind the grand piano visible during our interview—a treasured inheritance from her grandmother, the only other musician in her family.After discussing Mackenzie's debut single "Bad Taste on Love" and her upcoming release "The Ghost of Us," we shift to the latest country music news, covering artists like Chris Stapleton and Miranda Lambert supporting Texas flood victims. The episode culminates in a spirited debate about the greatest vocal collaborations of all time, with listeners passionately defending their favorites from Kenny Rogers and Dolly Parton to modern pairings like Jason Aldean and Carrie Underwood.LinksJay Franze: https://JayFranze.comVirtually You: https://www.virtuallyyouva.com/ Support the show

A lovable cast that includes Bob Hoskins, John Leguizamo, Samantha Mathis, Mojo Nixon, and Dennis Hopper doing T-Rex arms! A sequel tease and post-credits scene years before Marvel made them common! A visually insane movie with impressive sets and costume designs, an Oscar-winning cinematographer, and great dinosaur/creature FX that slightly predate Jurassic Park! All that and more in this endearingly uneven, cyberpunk-influenced adaptation that would have an even bigger cult following if it weren't for the shame of the creatives involved!In addition, K-Tron shares her spoiler-free thoughts on the horror comedy Slotherhouse, while Alex does the same for Bring Her Back, the John Wick spinoff Ballerina, the Shark serial killer thriller Dangerous Animals, Romy and Michele's High School Reunion and Mission: Impossible - The Final Reckoning (with some additional thoughts from Tim)!You can find Death Don't Do Fiction on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or wherever you get your podcasts.

In dieser Folge wird gewichtelt – und zwar mit Filmen! Alper, Xenia und Lenny haben sich gegenseitig ihre cineastischen Lieblinge aufs Auge gedrückt – und besprechen jetzt, wie die so angekommen sind. Mit dabei: Bo Burnhams emotionaler Pandemie-Höllentrip INSIDE, das Kult-Kinojuwel CINEMA PARADISO und der Studio-Ghibli-Liebling KIKIS KLEINER LIEFERSERVICE. Aber das ist noch lange nicht alles – haltet euch fest: Ryan Gosling im neu angekündigten STAR WARS-Film STARFIGHTER?! Wir besprechen, wie das gehen soll, und was wir davon halten. Xenia hat außerdem auf eure Empfehlung hin den Anime VAMPIRE HUNTER D: BLOODLUST geschaut – und teilt ihre Reaktion mit uns! Zum Schluss werfen wir wie immer noch einen Blick auf die Filmstarts der Woche: Lenny hat sich THE ACCOUNTANT 2 reingezogen, wir reden über die Game-Verfilmung UNTIL DAWN und überlegen, ob Netflix' HAVOC mit Tom Hardy wirklich so hart zuschlagen kann, wie der Name verspricht. Und damit hallo und herzlich willkommen hier bei CINEMA STRIKES BACK!
