Thank you for listening to the Following Films Podcast. Today, we're diving into a film that's as much about cinema history as it is about the raw, unsettling power of horror. Fifty years after Tobe Hooper's The Texas Chain Saw Massacre shocked the world and permanently altered the landscape of filmmaking, a new documentary is taking a hard, fascinating look at its legacy.It's called Chain Reactions—winner of the Venice Classics Award for Best Documentary on Cinema and an official selection at festivals like Telluride, Sitges, and BFI London. The film brings together voices like Patton Oswalt, Takashi Miike, Alexandra Heller-Nicholas, Stephen King, and Karyn Kusama, weaving their personal impressions, memories, and even traumas into a dialogue about how one scrappy, no-budget horror film embedded itself into our collective nightmares—and never left.The documentary is written and directed by Alexandre O. Philippe, a filmmaker who has carved out his own space as the leading voice in what he calls “cinema essays.” From 78/52 to Memory: The Origins of Alien to Lynch/Oz, Philippe has built a career exploring not just movies, but the cultural and artistic forces behind them. With Chain Reactions, he once again peels back the layers of a cinematic landmark.Today's episode of the Following Films Podcast is brought to you by Google Workspace.

The killing of Charlie Kirk in Utah this September didn't just extinguish the life of a polarizing activist. It set off a cascade — an implosion in the civic square whose blast radius is still expanding. To make sense of it, we should borrow metaphors not from politics but from physics and history: Sarajevo, Versailles, Oppenheimer.A nuclear bomb is not powered by TNT. It's powered by the precision of small charges — explosive lenses — that compress a fragile core until it becomes supercritical. A spark, carefully timed, unleashes apocalypse. Politics often works the same way. In 1914, a 19-year-old assassin fired a pistol in Sarajevo, compressing a fragile Europe into the First World War. Versailles, intended as peace, functioned as a pause that guaranteed an even larger conflict. Small detonations in brittle systems yield catastrophe.Charlie Kirk's assassination was one such detonation. The details are familiar: a public event turned deadly, footage ricocheting across feeds, and the immediate conversion of murder into symbol. President Trump ordered flags at half-staff, awarded a posthumous Medal of Freedom, and vowed vengeance. JD Vance promised to dismantle left-leaning institutions. Cardinals compared Kirk to St. Paul; entertainers dedicated songs; world leaders offered tributes or warnings. At the same time, critics mocked, skeptics questioned, and conspiracy theories metastasized.What mattered was not the biography of Kirk but the implosion his death triggered. Employers fired staffers for tasteless jokes. Activists launched doxxing campaigns. Governments warned immigrants not to mock. Online mobs demanded ever harsher retribution. In days, one act of violence became a referendum on loyalty, identity, legitimacy.This is the ladder of escalation I've written about before: speech treated as violence, violence treated as mandate, mandate hardened into purge. Every rung climbed makes descent harder. Kirk, adored by some and despised by others, became less a man than a trigger. Like Princip in Sarajevo, he ignited forces far larger than himself.The analogy to nuclear weapons is not hyperbole. A conventional blasting cap — a tweet, a joke, a jeer — may seem trivial. But when the system is brittle, those charges compress the civic core until it reaches criticality. The implosion is not the joke itself; it is the convergence of fury, fear, and fragile legitimacy. The fission that follows is outrage weaponized into governance: firings, bans, purges, crackdowns.Theology sharpens the picture. The Gospels say: “Go, and sin no more.” Mercy paired with responsibility. What we see instead is vengeance paired with purification. Kirk is canonized as martyr; his critics are cast as heretics. But civilization depends on protecting the square — the messy forum where ugly words are countered with argument rather than annihilation.The lesson from Sarajevo and from Los Alamos is identical: once the charges fire, you cannot un-detonate them. A bullet, a tweet, a public assassination: each can become the blasting cap that compresses a democracy into criticality. If we keep mistaking outrage for justice, we will not be mourning just one man in Utah. We will be mourning the republic itself.

For episode 257, I'm joined once again by my co-host Myles Hughes, with producer Steve Prusakowski working behind the scenes. This episode is an Oscar season vibe check, as Myles and I do some category pondering. There's no big declarations or anything of the sort, though some potentially narratives are emerging. We also talk about The Long Walk (reviewed here by yours truly) now that Myles has seen it, while I tell him about Megadoc (reviewed here), Chain Reactions, and Strange Journey: The Story of Rocky Horror. Throw in your questions and it's an episode with something for everyone...As always my friends and faithful listeners/readers, I do hope you all enjoy the latest episode of the Awards Radar Podcast, our 257th one to date (here's to many more). Of course, feel free to revisit the previous installments by clicking the Podcast tab (here) on the top of the page. Plus, listen to us on Apple Podcasts (iTunes), Spotify, and other platforms. More to come each and every single week, so from the bottom of my heart, thank you for listening! 

It's a jam-packed, mid-week episode of our Breakfast All Day podcast. We begin with a super-early, spoiler-free review of "One Battle After Another." Paul Thomas Anderson's latest epic doesn't come out until Sept. 26, but we couldn't wait to talk about it. We'll do a spoiler-free LIVE YouTube chat at Noon Pacific on Tuesday, Sept. 30, so mark your calendars for that. And! Join us before a showing of ONE BATTLE AFTER ANOTHER on opening weekend. We'll be at CinemaWest Beach Cities before the 6pm showing on Friday, Sept. 26. Say hello to us in the lobby bar starting around 530pm, then head into the theater and see the movie on their GIANT screen. Find out more and get tickets here: https://web.cinemawest.com/films/One-Battle-After-Another/HO00000209 Also in this episode, we have reviews of two movies about movies: the documentaries "Megadoc" (about Francis Ford Coppola's "Megalopolis") and "Chain Reactions" (about Tobe Hooper's "The Texas Chain Saw Massacre"). We catch up with the charming indie rom-com "The Baltimorons," about an unlikely relationship that develops on Christmas Eve. And we spend some time remembering Robert Redford, who died this week at his Utah home at 89. Words like "legend" and "icon" don't feel like enough in describing Redford's life and career. He was THE movie star. We'll honor him with our Off the Menu poll on our Patreon next month, so keep an eye out for that. Thanks for being here!

In Episode 39 of Chain Reactions, we're joined by Fabrizio, co-founder of Legion, to explore one of the most misunderstood truths in crypto: capital formation is the killer application for blockchain.We go deep on the broken incentives in today's launchpad meta, how Legion is flipping the script with reputation-based fundraising, and why public token sales can, and should, outperform traditional IPOs. Fab also shares his personal story, from growing up on food stamps to working with Rolls Royce to becoming one of the most respected operators in web3 fundraising.We also dig into:How Legion is building a two-sided marketplace for reputation and allocationWhat founders get wrong when preparing for a TGEWhy attention markets, not airdrops, are the real unlockWhat it means to grow beyond CT and take on IPO-scale distributionAnd what's coming next in Legion 2.0 (hint: it's big)This one's packed with insight for founders, investors, builders, and anyone who thinks crypto should aim higher.Timestamps00:00 – Intro and Fabrizio's background: from geoscience to crypto06:00 – Falling in love with DeFi Summer08:00 – The broken incentives in launchpads and token listings11:30 – Why Legion was founded and what it solves in capital formation15:00 – What is Legion and how the reputation score works20:00 – Regulatory tailwinds and the bet on MiCA and Project Crypto24:00 – Vetting process for Legion deals and what curation looks like28:00 – Business model and why Legion only wins if the project wins30:30 – Cookie3, attention markets, and fronting capital as commitment34:00 – Deep dive into Legion Score and future roadmap40:00 – Projects launched: Pulse, Almanac, and beyond42:30 – Legion's vision to take on IPO-level scale45:00 – Community, storytelling, and the future of tokenized fundraising48:00 – Moving beyond CT through partnership marketing49:00 – Rapid fire: underrated and overrated tactics, top projects, and lessons52:00 – Fab's biggest founder learning and advice to others building in Web357:00 – Founders reflect: Blake and Polina's takeaways58:30 – What's next for Legion and key dates to watch

In Episode 38 of Chain Reactions, we talk with Louis and Jinelle, the duo behind Nozomi, an open-source YC-style platform built to support the next generation of crypto founders.We unpack how Nozomi is helping Web3 founders with three key things: resources, funding, and network.Louis shares how years of work in digital marketing, early-stage infra, and advisory at Immutable led him to realize just how hard it is to build in crypto. Jinelle walks through her journey from working in advertising with brands like Porsche to navigating India's early e-comm & Bitcoin scene, to leading ecosystem work across crypto.Together, they break down:Why building in crypto is way harder than it should beWhat founders get wrong when pitching VCs (and how to fix it)How ecosystems can go from ghost chains to kingmakersWhy Nozomi is backing community-first raises through LegionThe ECAI framework: how to convert yappers into real contributorsIf you're fundraising, incubating, launching a token, or trying to retain users without just farming attention — this is one to study.Listen and mint the episode at pods.media/myosinxyz

For EP34 of Chain Reactions, we sat down with Aixa Rizzo, ecosystem lead at Sophon, to explore how they're making blockchain invisible, rewarding users for daily data, and building fun apps over jargon-heavy ones.We trace Aixa's journey from Mad Men-inspired advertising in Argentina, through agency life and Web 2 startups, to crypto via payments and a viral shitpost that landed her at Sophon. She breaks down Sophon's vision: data rewards, easy onboarding via Google/X, and entertainment to attract non-natives.We dive into ecosystem apps like health trackers with ZKTLs, AI companions, and games; branding inspired by Apple and Coca-Cola for emotional ties and "aura farming"; and plans to expand beyond crypto Twitter via TikTok, Instagram, and bold activations like Paris Fashion Week jackets.If you're navigating Web3 marketing, scaling consumer apps, or aiming mainstream without the hype, this one's for you.Please enjoy, and as always, don't forget to subscribe, give us a five-star review, and mint the episode at pods.media/myosinxyz!

For EP33 of Chain Reactions, we sat down with Azeem Khan, longtime crypto operator and now co-founder of the privacy-first ZK blockchain Miden*,* to discuss what it takes to build a next-gen L1 in today's market.We trace Azeem's journey from Bitcoin blog posts and Kardashian cease-and-desists to running major BD at Gitcoin, closing partnerships with UNICEF, and now helping lead Miden, which just raised a $25M seed round co-led by a16z, 1kx, and Hack VC.We went deep on what it means to be a non-technical co-founder in a zero-knowledge protocol, why founder-led BD still beats most Web3 growth strategies, and how Miden's Pioneer Program is flipping the playbook by taking a venture studio approach to ecosystem building.Plus, we talk about astronauts as mascots, Taylor Swift as a blueprint for community, and why the best crypto brands borrow from culture, not crypto Twitter.If you're building an L1, supporting one, or just want to hear how thoughtful storytelling and asymmetric relationship capital can help turn a new chain into a category-defining ecosystem — this one's a must.Please enjoy, and as always, subscribe, drop a five-star review at https://bit.ly/chainreactions-spotify, or mint the episode at pods.media/myosinxyz!

Maybe grab a poncho because in our latest ep you will get wet! We take a look at the grisly, gleeful gore of the splatter sub-genre. The absurd, nihilism, and the tenuous nature of our society all underpin a genre that cuts much deeper than it seems on the surface.Includes discussions of The Shrouds (2025), The Great God Pan (short story by Arthur Machen, 1894), Chain Reactions (2024), Jigoku (1960), Blood Feast (1963), The Gore Gore Girls (1972), The Beyond (1981), Demons (1985), Ichi the Killer (2001) and The Sadness (2021).Follow us on Instagram and Facebook.Contact us at crystal@spookybitchgang.com and scott@spookybitchgang.com.

For EP32 of Chain Reactions, we sat down with Jay Kurahashi-Sofue, longtime crypto marketer, former head of marketing at Avalanche, and now CMO at Eco, all to unpack why stablecoins might just be the real unlock for mainstream crypto adoption… if we can fix the UX mess first.From his early days running a music blog during the Bloghouse era, all to way to helping launch Circle before USDC even existed, building Avalanche's brand from the ground up, and now reimagining how we use stablecoins with Eco, Jay shares what he's learned leading crypto marketing through multiple cycles — and why good storytelling always beats hype.We dive into how Eco is building a Plaid-like experience for stablecoins, what it means to go B2B-first in Web3, and why the real challenge in infra marketing is figuring things out when there's no playbook.Jay also shares his team's 4-1-1 content strategy, why search and SEO are underrated (and Twitter overrated), how dev-focused YouTube content is winning right now, and what it actually takes to build developer trust from scratch.If you're working on crypto infrastructure, building dev funnels, or trying to launch anything involving stables — this one's required listening.Please enjoy, and don't forget to subscribe, leave us a five-star review, and mint the episode at pods.media/myosinxyz!

For EP31 of Chain Reactions, we sat down with Bettina Sosa — one of the newest guild leads at Myosin and our DevRel whisperer — to unpack why every founder building in crypto needs to treat Developer Relations as a core part of their go-to-market motion.We trace Bettina's path from researching self-sovereign identity at Imperial College (shoutout to her Venezuelan roots and her early hopes to fix broken ID systems) to helping major DAOs like Aragon and Bankless with their onboarding UX. Along the way, she shares what it was like moving from research to shipping product, how she started writing dev-focused content to demystify EVM and MEV, and why so much DevRel in Web3 misses the mark.We go deep on what great DevRel actually looks like — beyond just hackathons and bounties — and explore everything from niche TG groups and cold outreach to AI learning tools, dev onboarding trends, and the regions everyone's sleeping on (spoiler: it's not just Asia anymore).If you're serious about growing your protocol, building developer ecosystems, or just want to understand why “just having docs” won't cut it — this one's for you.Please enjoy, and as always, don't forget to subscribe, give us a five-star review, and mint the episode at pods.media/myosinxyz!

For EP30 of Chain Reactions, we sat down with Kiko (KZ), co-founder of [Chomp](https://chomp.so/), to dive into one of the most unexpectedly delightful and high-signal consumer products in crypto: a daily opinion game that's part Reddit, part Polymarket, and fully powered by Solana speed and second-order thinking.We explore Kiko's path from working at Mattel and Deloitte to leading business at Orca and ultimately co-founding Chomp — and how her background in user research, education, and design at IDEO helped shape her vision for what trustworthy information markets should look like in a world flooded with AI-generated noise.Kiko breaks down how Chomp uses game mechanics to turn subjective questions into trusted signal, what she's learned from thousands of hours of user research, and why streaks, cute mascots, and good vibes might be the secret to onboarding the next million users to crypto. We also cover the deeper mechanics behind Chomp's surprisingly powerful prediction engine — including Bayesian Truth Serum and why betting on second-order beliefs yields alpha.If you're building in consumer crypto, curious about the future of trustless UX, or just want a smarter way to kill time on the toilet — this one's for you.Please enjoy, and as always, be sure to subscribe, give us a five star review, and mint our episode at https://pods.media/myosinxyz!

Single White Female from 1992 is an interesting movie. It seemed to be a big deal at the time, but neither of us remember anything about it. The rumors of Jenna Ortega starring in a remake are certainly interesting, however. The Saw franchise brings back a lot of pleasant memories. Sure, the vast majority of them are tied to the first, but the same can be said about most long running movie series. Naturally, we have opinions about the cancellation of Saw XI and its future.Though we do not have the opportunity to cover them as much as we would like to, we enjoy short films. In this episode we get to talk about three shorts from the Boston Underground Festival. A gory anthology, the truth about banjo strings, and a really cool stop motion flick all caught our attention.Another movie from BUFF that interested us was Chain Reactions. That it was about The Texas Chainsaw Massacre was cool enough. Chainsaw is one of the most important horror movies of all time and has a special place in our childhoods. That Stephen King is also prominently featured made it impossible for us to ignore.Alexandre O. Phillipe is a great filmmaker who has made tremendous documentaries about David Lynch, Alien, and The Exorcist. His signature style is on full display here as Chain Reactions is a perfect mix of nostalgia, theory, and opinion on Tobe Hooper's classic. It is a must watch.It has literally been years since we have reviewed a documentary about a cult. So, we were very excited to watch AUM: The Cult at the End of the World. We knew it would be interesting, but we had no idea what to expect. One of us was so dumbfounded by what they saw that they could only use one word to describe it.Aum is unlike any other cult. (Somehow, it is still in existence - kinda.) At its peak, it could legitimately claim worldwide membership that was in the tens of thousands. The existed in full view of the public, Worst of all, they had a relationship with the media that can only be described as friendly. It is a truly wild documentary.

For EP19 of Chain Reactions, we talked to Fran, the co-founder and CEO of Superfluid, a leading streaming protocol that is completely changing the meta for how tokens are distributed for salaries, airdrops and beyond. Fran is a proper crypto OG, and as a builder in the space, was even there when Uniswap had their first airdrop. And we had an incredibly insightful and nuanced conversation around the history, present, and future of airdrops and points. tl;dr: we need to completely rethink how we frame and architect points and token distributions, and streaming tokens AFTER token launch as rewards makes a lot more sense. This is an awesome conversation for any marketer or founder trying to understand how to successfully launch a token that doesn't immediately dump and creates long-term value!
