Podcast appearances and mentions of Christopher Nolan

Welcome to The B-Side! Here we talk about movie stars! And sometimes we get to talk to stars about their own B-Sides! Today is a big one for us. The legend Josh Hartnett is on the podcast to talk about his new film Verity and dish on some of his B-Sides, including Town & Country, August, and Valley of the Gods. We chat with Hartnett about his growth as an actor, his memories on the chaotic set of the Warren Beatty-starrer Town & Country, his love for the underseen August, his joy making Lucky Number Slevin, and the luck and stress of having both his big movie (Verity) open mere days before his big new show (Below). We make mention of this fascinating Vanity Fair piece from 2001, as well as his intentional disappearance from Hollywood in the mid-2000s. There's also a brief mention of his potential regret in dismissing a chance at playing Batman for Christopher Nolan early on.

This week, the boys head to London and Paris to discuss 1948's “The Red Shoes”! Our first Powell and Pressburger film; we got to drinking and kept it positive while talking about this absolute classic. From groundbreaking dance sequences to technical achievement to sensational performances, this film blew us away almost as hard as it did Martin Scorsese, who stole some filmmaking ideas for “Raging Bull” and led a restoration effort on this film. John also talked about “Digger”… sort of, and John and Jeff discussed “Resident Evil” (2026).

¿Qué puede enseñarnos La Odisea sobre emprender? Tras el estreno de la película de Christopher Nolan, en este episodio comparto 7 grandes aprendizajes de la obra de Homero que podemos aplicar al emprendimiento y también a la vida. Hablamos de perseverancia, mentores, ego, tentaciones, paciencia, lealtad y de la importancia de saber hacia dónde vamos sin olvidarnos de vivir el camino. A través de Odiseo, Penélope, Telémaco, Atenea, Polifemo y las sirenas, reflexionamos sobre nuestros propios monstruos, tormentas y distracciones.

Why has Batman remained one of the world's most popular superheroes for nearly 90 years? From the dark, pulp-inspired Batman of 1939 to Adam West's colorful 1960s TV series, Christopher Nolan's Dark Knight trilogy, and even The LEGO Batman Movie, Batman keeps reinventing himself. In this episode, we trace the history of Batman to discover what makes the character so enduring—and what separates a great Batman adaptation from one that misses the mark. How much can you change Bruce Wayne, Gotham City, the tone, the setting, or even Batman himself before he stops being Batman? And what can Batman teach us about the difference between honoring an artistic tradition and merely copying it?

Achilles, the greatest warrior in Greek mythology, knew his fate: stay and fight at Troy and die young with eternal glory, or go home and live a long, forgotten life. He ended up with the glory and the early grave. Then, in the land of the dead, he told Odysseus it wasn't worth it. It's one of the most powerful scenes in Homer's Odyssey, and Christopher Nolan left it out of his film.This episode goes back to the Iliad and the Trojan War to find out why Achilles ended up there. He thought he was making reasoned choices, but his passions were deciding for him the whole time. Most of us live the same way: sure of what we want in theory, hedging in practice, and letting our worst days settle the questions we never answered. Achilles shows what that costs, and what it takes to make a choice that's truly your own.---------------------------------Sign up for 'BTMC: Protagonist Edition', where you get the full story the day it releases, plus EXTENDED VERSIONS of the episodes, access to all the Character Analysis episodes, and early access to the next book.

This is Episode 5 of the 12-part Culture Matters Podcast series examining Christopher Nolan's interpretation of The Odyssey. This first series is intentionally focused on the movie rather than Homer's texts; I'll come back to the books separately.The doctrine/thesis I've been repeating throughout the series is:“Culture is the invisible architecture that makes civilization possible. It isn't made of stone. It isn't made of laws. It isn't made of governments. It's made of trust, sacrifice, honor, truth, courage, mercy, and the agreements people choose to keep. Every decision strengthens that architecture—or weakens it.”What happens when someone's status rises faster than their character?In Episode 5 of The Odyssey series, Jay Doran examines Antinous as a case study in power without character: an intelligent and politically capable man who learns how to acquire influence without developing the substance necessary to carry it.Beginning with the childhood lottery scene between Antinous and Sinon, Jay explores how a moment of avoided sacrifice eventually becomes a narrative Antinous uses to construct an identity and pursue control of Ithaca.The episode explores:The difference between earned status and manufactured statusHow narrative manipulation creates political powerWhy intelligence without character can make someone more—not less—dangerousAntinous's ability to manipulate Penelope, the suitors, and the people around the royal householdWhy how someone treats people who cannot advance them reveals characterThe difference between creating visibility and creating valueHow inheritance can transfer status without transferring the character necessary to sustain itCorporate climbers and political operators inside organizationsWhy leaders should watch the gap between someone's words and behaviorsHow accountability can prevent an early mistake from becoming an identityThe bow as a symbol of competence, sacrifice, history, thought, word, and deedWhy objective performance eventually forces narrative to encounter realityThe organizational “bows” leaders can use: KPIs, client outcomes, peer trust, execution, subordinate feedback, and measurable resultsThe difference between talking about leadership and actually being capable of leadingA major idea running through the episode is:Narrative can outrun reality temporarily. Eventually reality catches up.The bow becomes the ultimate test.Antinous can manipulate people and stories, but he cannot manipulate the bow. When Odysseus strings it, years of reputation, politics, inheritance, and storytelling encounter something that cannot be negotiated with: reality.The episode then becomes personal. Jay asks where his own reputation, status, and self-concept may have outrun his character or competence—and simultaneously confronts the places where years of reading, writing, advising, interviewing, and client work mean that he actually has earned the ability to “string the bow.”The question becomes:Which bows can you actually string—and which ones have you merely convinced yourself you can?The episode closes with an unexpected connection between Antinous and Odysseus under Calypso: two very different people becoming separated from reality through the stories they inhabit.The way back begins with listening.Previous episodes:Episode 1 — The Lie That Broke the WorldEpisode 2 — Zeus's LawEpisode 3 — Odysseus: The Leader Who Could Not Let GoEpisode 4 — Eurylochus: The Number Two

Talk about an odyssey! Danny and Kevin saw Christopher Nolan's latest epic in July, recorded a conversation about it in August, and spent September editing it. Now we know how all those poor sailors felt traveling with Homeric Greece's wiliest, unluckiest king. The Odyssey is both a classic example of both the bygone and the modern blockbuster. Perhaps it's not as good as all the other dreadful movies in its' budget range but, come on...it's really good. Follow us on Instagram at coffeeanddeathpod or email us at coffeeanddeathsticks@gmail.com

In this episode, we dive together into the mystery of time and how God uses time to fulfill His plan into our lives, while we are living in faithfulness.Augustine once admitted that he knew perfectly well what time was until somebody asked him to explain it, and most of us live in the same condition, carried along by something we cannot define and cannot escape. Even those who believe nothing at all are still held inside this timeline, which is perhaps why we return to the subject again and again, in our philosophy and in our films, and why a man like Christopher Nolan can say he is obsessed with it.We answer questions such as:Is time a fixed four-dimensional block in which every moment already exists, or does it truly move forward, one second at a time?If the future does not yet exist, how can God possibly know what is going to happen?Does God's foreknowledge destroy human freedom, or is certainty something different from necessity?Can anything we do bring God's plan closer, or hurry it along?What does it mean that God does not erase the past but redeems it?What are we supposed to do in the long interval between the promise and its fulfillment?How do we live faithfully when we cannot see, and do not understand, what God is doing right now?

Tonight I talk about Christopher Nolan's epic film and why Penelope should've gone to Costco within the 20 year waiting game for odysseus.

Proletarian writers | 2 August 2026 Even while staying true to the spirit of the original epic, Nolan has created a deeply thought-provoking parable for our own time. The Odyssey is both stunning in its depiction of the ancient world and bang up to date in showing the brutalising consequences of wars for domination and conquest. --------------------------------------------- Subscribe!

Hello!Anders Holmes is back with a new solo Anders Reviews. . . episode.Spooky Season is now in session, summer is over, the days are getting shorter and colder. It is the perfect time of the year to sit down and watch a horror film or two. Or many if you're a big horror nut, like Anders.On this episode, Anders reviews and discusses Sir Alfred Hitchcock's classic and influential film from 1960: Psycho. Much like Peeping Tom released earlier that year, Psycho was one of those thrillers/horror films that helped lay the groundwork for what would become the slasher genre. John Carpenter's Halloween, for instance, owes a lot to Psycho. Along with talking about how Psycho was a tremendous film that left an enduring mark on cinema, Anders looks at the three sequels featuring Anthony Perkins's classic character Norman Bates. And the 1998 Psycho remake that was directed by Gus Van Sant. An almost shot-for-shot remake of the Hitchcock film. It uses the same Joseph Stefano screenplay and the same shot compositions. A truly cinematic experiment gone wrong. Nevertheless, the original Psycho was a groundbreaking film that subverted expectations and challenged the restrictions of the time, laid down by the Hays Code. A very taboo breaking film. Subscribe to the podcast and stay tuned for more horror themed solo episodes from Anders. The next one will be on the Psycho Franchise.Be sure to check out our Monument Valley Film on our YouTube Channel.Anders's screenwriter work can also be seen at work in the horror, car chase thriller Delivery Run, co-written with & directed by Joey Palmroos. The film has been released digitally and also in select cinemas in the US and the UK. In Finland it was released on Apple TV after finishing its limited cinema run and was the Number 1 film for multiple weeks. You can read a review about it here on the Fangoria website. The film is now available to watch in the other Nordic territories like Sweden, Oslo and of course Denmark. If you live in Denmark, you can watch the movie here on Apple TV by clicking this link.Follow us on our Instagram page. For obvious reasons, we are no longer on Twitter. You won't find us there.

Alex discusses the increasing use of paywalls by major news organizations such as CNN, BBC, and Reuters, arguing that basic news information should remain accessible while readers can pay for deeper analysis and opinion. He also reflects on how his pink hair has revealed different reactions and biases in people around him. Finally, Alex discusses Christopher Nolan's The Odyssey and critiques translator Emily Wilson's negative assessment of the film, focusing on differing interpretations of the ancient story, its characters, and themes.

Tras su estreno el pasado mes de julio, la Odisea de Christopher Nolan sigue generando polémica y no es casualidad: pocas adaptaciones se prestan tanto a la discusión de “¿qué se puede tocar del original y qué no?”. Es la pregunta base de Mariajo Noain para analizar, desde diferentes aspectos, el blockbuster del año en su sección, los Viajes de Aspasia. Lo hará desde su mirada de arqueóloga e historiadora, deteniéndose en matices que quizá no habíais advertido. Lo hará acompañada de nuestro presentador, Mikel Carramiñana En la segunda propuesta, estrenamos una sección, nada menos que de la mano de Rubén Ibarzabal que desde Japón, inaugura por todo lo alto Orient Express, en la que abordará historias de todo el continente asiático. Esta primera entrega la arranca en su país de adopción, y es que nos hablará de los orígenes, la historia y de las curiosidades del castillo de Edo, la imponente fortaleza de los shogunes de la dinastía Tokugawa que, con el paso de los siglos, se acabaría convirtiendo en la residencia oficial del emperador de Japón. Y, de paso, acabaría también dando nombre a la actual ciudad de Tokio, la capital del país del Sol Naciente. En la clásica repetición, esta vez recuperamos un monográfico de Por los Dioses, con Sergio Alejo y el inquisidor, con el fatal e incierto destino de la Legio VIIII hispana como protagonista. Repasaremos su historia y su controvertida desaparición. Escucha el episodio completo en la app de iVoox, o descubre todo el catálogo de iVoox Originals

If you're going to see Christopher Nolan's The Odyssey, or you've already seen it, there's a much bigger story behind the film.In this conversation I talk to Dr. Joel Christensen, Professor of Classics at the City University of New York Graduate Center, and author of the book ' Why Odysseus?Survivor, Scoundrel, (Anti) Hero.'  We talk about the ancient Odysseus,  the brilliant strategist, liar, trickster, survivor and deeply complicated hero at the centre of Homer's Odyssey.Nolan's film brings this ancient story to a modern audience, but Homer's Odysseus is very different from a straightforward Hollywood hero. He is courageous and resourceful, but he is also manipulative, deceptive and capable of making disastrous choices. His greatest weapon isn't strength, it's his ability to adapt, persuade and think his way out of impossible situations.Joel explains what the film can and can't tell us about Homer's original story, why the Odyssey is much more than an adventure about getting home, and why Odysseus remains such a compelling character more than 2,500 years later.In this episodeWho was the real Odysseus? And why was he so different from heroes like Achilles?Why the ancient idea of a “hero” is very different from our modern understanding of one.The Odyssey as a story of survival, and the price that survival can carry.Odysseus, the Trojan Horse and his extraordinary gift for deception and adaptability.Whether Odysseus is responsible for the deaths of his men mand how Homer explores blame, responsibility and human agency.Why simply reaching Ithaca isn't enough: what does it actually mean to come home?The Odyssey's fascination with family, community and the damage heroic behaviour can leave behind.Why Odysseus can be seen as an ancient version of the modern antihero.What Walter White from Breaking Bad can tell us about Odysseus and our fascination with complicated characters.How Christopher Nolan's interpretation changes our understanding of Odysseus.Why Nolan's Odysseus appears more traumatised and guilt-ridden than Homer's.The fascinating difference between Homer's Odysseus and the hero modern audiences may want him to be.What polytropos, “the man of many ways," reveals about Odysseus.The meaning of nostos, the ancient idea of homecoming from which our word “nostalgia” ultimately derives.Why the Odyssey was originally a performed song rather than a modern-style book.How Joel's own experiences of fatherhood, loss and family changed the way he understood Homer's story.Beyond the filmOne of the most interesting questions in the conversation is whether we actually like Odysseus.Joel's answer is complicated. For him, Odysseus is less a hero to admire than a face in the mirror: a character who forces us to confront compromise, bad decisions, persistence and the things people do to survive. The ancient poem isn't simply about monsters, gods and an extraordinary journey across the sea. It's about what happens to a person after war, what survival costs, whether returning home can make someone whole again, and how much of ourselves we are willing to compromise along the way.About Dr. Joel ChristensenDr. Joel Christensen is Professor of Classics at the City University of New York Graduate Center. He is a scholar of Homer and Greek epic and the author of Odysseus: Survivor, Scoundrel, and Antihero.If you haven't read The Odyssey, Joel recommends getting familiar with the main characters first, then exploring different versions of the story rather than assuming there is one single “correct” Odyssey. He also recommends Gareth Hinds' graphic novel adaptation as an accessible introduction to the story.This version deliberately doesn't give away Nolan's film plot, so it can work both as a companion for people who have seen it and as an introduction for people planning to see it.LinksBook: ' Why Odysseus?Survivor, Scoundrel, (Anti) Hero.'  Question or comment?

Culture is the invisible architecture that makes civilization possible. It isn't made of stone. It isn't made of laws. It isn't made of governments. It's made of trust, sacrifice, honor, truth, courage, mercy, and the agreements people choose to keep. Every decision strengthens that architecture or weakens it.How do you know what someone really believes when there is no reward for behaving well?Episode 2 of The Odyssey: A Culture Matters Series explores Zeus's Law the ancient obligation of hospitality toward the stranger and the beggar—and what Christopher Nolan's The Odyssey can teach us about culture, leadership, power, character, and human dignity.Jay examines the beggar as a cultural test: the person who seemingly possesses the least power can reveal the most about the person who possesses the most.The episode moves between the microscopic and the cosmic. At the individual level, Zeus's Law asks how we treat the stranger who appears incapable of helping us. At the civilizational level, it represents the invisible agreements that make trust, exchange, leadership, organizations, families, and civilization itself possible.The discussion returns to the Trojan Horse from Episode 1. The Greeks did not merely deceive Troy they weaponized Troy's willingness to receive a gift. What was supposed to be an offering of peace became an instrument of destruction. Once that sacred agreement was violated, the cultural domino effect began.The episode then moves to Ithaca, where Odysseus eventually returns to his own kingdom disguised as a beggar. The suitors possess status, inheritance, food, and proximity to power, yet repeatedly demonstrate contempt toward those beneath them. Their treatment of the beggar exposes what their outward status conceals: a lack of character, competence, coherence, and earned authority.Telemachus offers the counterexample. Early in the film, he treats a beggar with dignity, listens to him, and receives guidance that ultimately sends him on the journey necessary for his own development. The interaction raises a critical leadership question: What information might exist at the bottom of a hierarchy that the people at the top cannot see?Key ThemesZeus's Law and the sacred obligation of hospitalityThe beggar as the cultural testWhy power reveals characterThe difference between material hierarchy and moral hierarchyThe Trojan Horse as the violation of hospitality and trustTelemachus listening to the strangerWhy information travels downward through organizations more easily than truth travels upwardLeadership and the responsibility to listenHospitality as a source of informationCharacter, competence, merit, and inheritanceThe suitors as an example of status without substanceThe difference between helping and enablingWhy boundaries and hospitality must coexistHow leaders model what becomes permissible throughout a culturePersonal reflections on generosity, boundaries, discernment, and learning to say noCentral Ideas“The beggar is the cultural test.”“Zeus's Law is the fulcrum of the culture.”The person who appears to possess the least materially may reveal the most about the character of the person possessing the most.If respect exists only when another person is useful to us, respect is not actually a value—it is a strategy.Hospitality without discernment can become enabling. Discernment without hospitality can become contempt. Leadership requires the ability to hold both.A beggar may possess nothing materially while retaining dignity and character. A suitor may possess status, inheritance, and access to power while possessing very little internally. Material hierarchy and moral hierarchy are not the same thing.Healthy cultures allow information and truth to travel upward. The people at the bottom of an organization often see things that those at the top cannot.Have you listened to the first episode in this series? If so, below is how this episode connects to that one:Episode 1, “The Lie That Broke the World: How Civilizations Collapse Long Before the Walls Fall,” examined what happens when trust itself becomes a weapon.Episode 2 moves from the cosmic to the microscopic.If Episode 1 asks what happens when a civilization violates its invisible agreements, Episode 2 asks how those agreements are maintained in ordinary human interactions.Zeus's Law is the fulcrum.The beggar is the test.A question you can ask yourself for reflection is: How would your culture behave toward someone it believed had nothing to offer—and what would that reveal about who you really are?

This week on Movie Mistrial, we embark on an epic voyage across myth, monsters, and the human spirit as we dive into Christopher Nolan's ambitious adaptation of The Odyssey.The Odyssey transforms Homer's timeless epic into a breathtaking cinematic spectacle, blending Nolan's signature scale with intimate character drama. Featuring Matt Damon as Odysseus and an all-star cast, the film pairs stunning practical filmmaking, groundbreaking IMAX cinematography, and mythological grandeur to create one of the most visually ambitious adventures ever brought to the screen.While many have praised its scope and craftsmanship, some viewers argue that Nolan's streamlined adaptation sacrifices key characters and mythological elements from Homer's original poem in favor of a more grounded, psychological narrative. Others may find its dense storytelling and nearly three-hour runtime as demanding as Odysseus' journey itself.Join us as we chart a course through The Odyssey. Is Christopher Nolan's latest epic a triumphant reimagining of one of history's greatest stories—or does even a master filmmaker struggle to improve upon a legend nearly three thousand years in the making?Connect with us and share your thoughts:Twitter: http://tiny.cc/MistrialTwitterFacebook: http://tiny.cc/MistrialFBInstagram: http://tiny.cc/MistrialInstaVisit our website, www.moviemistrial.com, for more captivating episodes and to stay up-to-date with all things movies.

Welcome to the seventeenth episode of our ongoing series: Fascism On Film. Each episode of this series, the Holmes Brothers look and review a film that has to do with fascism. During the episodes, the brothers look and see how the aspects and portrayal of fascism shown in the film relate to current and/or past events.On this Fascism on Film episode, the Holmes Brothers sit down to discuss Archie Mayo's film Black Legion, starring one of their favourite actors Humphrey Bogart. This was in the early days of Bogart's career, and he wouldn't blow up as an actor and as a movie star until 1941 with High Sierra. He reunites with Archie Mayo who directed him in The Petrified Forest, for this hard-hitting drama set in the Midwestern parts of the United States. Frank Taylor (Bogart) is a blue collar factory worker who is expecting a promotion any day now. When he is passed over for a younger Polish immigrant, it takes a toll on Frank. He becomes bitter and mean. He is influenced to join a secret hate group called the Black Legion. Being part of the group alienates everyone from Frank. His family and friends. It all builds to a tragic conclusion. The Black Legion were a faction of the Klu Klux Klan. They were active in the 1920s and 1930s, they grew to prominence in the Great Depression. The film is based on the real life kidnapping and murder of a Work Progress Administration organiser: Charles S. Poole.We hope you enjoy this episode and stay tuned for more episodes of this Fascism On Film series.Be sure to check out our Monument Valley Film on our YouTube Channel.Anders's screenwriter work can also be seen at work in the horror, car chase thriller Delivery Run, co-written with & directed by Joey Palmroos.

Especial The Odyssey, el retorn de Christopher Nolan a la gran epopeia, la mitologia i l'aventura cinematogràfica. Analitzem el viatge d'Odisseu, interpretat per Matt Damon, des de la Guerra de Troia fins al seu retorn a Ítaca, i repassem alguns dels episodis més mítics de l'aventura: Polifem, els lestrígons, Circe, l'Inframón, Escil·la i Caribdis, les sirenes, Calipso i el retrobament amb Penèlope. També ens fixem en què aporta Nolan al relat original: una narrativa fragmentada, una mirada més fosca i terrorífica i, sobretot, una nova interpretació d'Odisseu marcada per la culpa i les conseqüències de les seves decisions a Troia. Un programa per als amants de la mitologia, del cinema d'aventures i de totes aquelles històries que, milers d'anys després, encara ens conviden a embarcar-nos cap a l'impossible. Us acompanyen l'Ignasi Arbat, la Marta Sanz i l'escriptora i professora Meritxell Blay, com a estrella convidada.

Why are vintage Mary Maxim sweaters so good? What happens when gorpcore actually goes camping? Did American fashion miss its America 250 moment? Sol and Michael are back on Pair of Kings Podcast to talk knitwear, outdoor style and American identity.After a month apart, the boys reunite for a conversation about the clothes we collect, the places we wear them and the culture that makes us want them in the first place. From an Idaho vintage-store discovery to the 2016 fashion revival, this September 2026 episode connects menswear, archive fashion, craft, film and the great outdoors.Why do Mary Maxim sweaters deserve more attention?Pair of Kings Podcast explains the appeal of vintage Mary Maxim knitwear through its graphic knitting patterns, animal motifs and the individuality of sweaters knitted at home. Sol shares the cardigan his friend Bailey identifies as the No. 415 Totem Pole pattern, the wolf-head design he keeps coming back to, and why collars and proportions can make similar sweaters wear completely differently. The discussion takes in Cowichan-style cardigans, Undercover and Yohji Yamamoto knitwear, an Ultraman sweater grail, and the work behind a custom Newcastle football-kit sweater. Is learning to knit the answer to finding your perfect sweater? And is the "sweater curse" really about knitting, or about how much effort you're willing to put into a relationship?What does gorpcore look like beyond the city?Sol recounts hiking from Pettit Lake to Redfish Lake in Idaho's Sawtooth Mountains, where thunderstorms, overpacking and increasingly stripped-back camping setups put outdoor style into perspective. The pair talk tents versus tarp shelters, the people you meet farther along the trail, and how experience changes what hikers carry. This is gorpcore through an actual camping trip: outdoor clothing, backpacking culture and the difference between dressing for a lifestyle and living it. Sol also thanks The North Face for providing gear for the trip.Did fashion drop the ball on America's 250th anniversary?Sol and Michael debate whether America 250 was a missed opportunity for American fashion, or whether its political associations made participation complicated. Ralph Lauren, Levi's and L.L.Bean become starting points for a bigger conversation about Americana, heritage brands, national identity and the relationship between fashion and politics. Can a brand sell a vision of America without getting pulled into the politics of being American? And are new ideas in menswear slowing down, or are we just looking in the wrong places?The conversation continues with Logjam Vintage, formerly Beankeepers, vintage L.L.Bean and a couple restoring Moose Peak Lighthouse on Mistake Island. Add old Champion T-shirts, heavy Filson wool trousers and the pleasure of finding clothes with a life before yours. Heritage menswear gets a lot more interesting when there's an actual story attached.Which movies make you want to change your wardrobe?The Lighthouse means wool coats, chunky knits and workwear; The Lost Boys means leather, a peacoat and Kiefer Sutherland; No Country for Old Men means Western shirts, worn-in jeans and cowboy boots. The boys also discuss Interview with the Vampire, Robert Pattinson in The Batman, military surplus and C.P. Company comparisons. Earlier, Christopher Nolan's Batman trilogy leads into Glen Powell and Robert Pattinson's GQ fashion editorials, Diesel, Balenciaga and why a great actor willing to get weird can sell a look better than a safe shoot.Are vintage cowboy boots worth the money?M.L. Leddy's and Lucchese lead a debate about Western boot craftsmanship, exotic leathers, resale prices, heel wear and the elusive combination of price, style and fit. Sol talks about his Lost Control boots, while Michael gets into repairing his Balenciaga Santiago boots. Beautiful boots are one thing. Beautiful boots that fit and aren't worn through are another.What is the 2016 fashion revival getting wrong?Sol and Michael argue that people keep confusing 2016 style with the earlier 2010s "swag era." They revisit Haider Ackermann velvet bomber jackets, Vetements Metal logo hoodies, Yeezy 750s and 350s, Rick Owens DRKSHDW fishtail parkas, skinny jeans, drop-crotch trousers and the outfits that once defined Grailed wish lists. Which archive pieces deserve another run, and which memories are getting the decade wrong?Further, the boys get into Portugal, Lisbon natural wine, New York street style, Crocs cowboy boots, Balenciaga denim versus Levi's 501s, hemming jeans at Self Edge, a vintage 1999 Slipknot T-shirt, the relationship "swag gap," niche fragrance samples, Future Diary, Fogland, Hunter x Hunter and songs of the week from Timbaland and Justin Timberlake and The Black Dahlia Murder. The tangents are part of the outfit.This is integrated fashion: our season's exploration of brands expanding beyond clothes into culture and lifestyle, while people bring their hobbies, communities and interests into what they wear. In this episode, knitting, camping, cinema, music and vintage collecting all become ways of thinking about personal style.Glad to be back in your ears (no diddy).Lots of love,Sol and Michael.This season is sponsored by Scent Split.Follow Pair of Kings on Instagram: @pairofkingspodEpisode Tags: Mary Maxim sweaters, vintage knitwear, gorpcore, America 250, American fashion, heritage menswear, vintage L.L.Bean, M.L.

It stars Ryan Gosling, who also produced the film, as Ryland Grace, and Sandra Hüller, James Ortiz, and Lionel Boyce play supporting roles. The story follows Ryland Grace, a middle school teacher who awakens aboard an interstellar spacecraft with no memory of how he got there. Pre-production began in 2020, before Weir's novel was published. Filming took place throughout 2024 in the United Kingdom, both on location and on sets. All scenes aboard the spacecraft Hail Mary were filmed on a practical set that was constructed for the film. Project Hail Mary premiered in London on March 9, 2026, and was released in the United States by Amazon MGM Studios on March 20, with Sony Pictures Releasing International releasing in other territories. It received positive reviews, with praise for Lord and Miller's direction, Gosling's performance, the character of Rocky, as well as the humor, themes and visuals. It was a commercial success, grossing over $685 million worldwide and becoming the seventh-highest-grossing film of 2026. Plot In the near future, middle school teacher and former molecular biologist Ryland Grace wakes up from an induced coma on the interstellar spacecraft Hail Mary, suffering from amnesia. Grace learns that he is the sole survivor of a three-person crew that was traveling towards the Tau Ceti system, 11.9 light-years from Earth. In a series of flashbacks, Grace recalls that scientists discovered a "Petrova line" of infrared light stretching from the Sun to Venus; an alien microbe in the line, dubbed "astrophage", was proliferating on the Sun's surface, dimming the Sun at a rate that would cause catastrophic global cooling within thirty years. The head of the Petrova Taskforce, Eva Stratt, recruited Grace to study it due to his background in speculative astrobiology. Grace experimented on a sample and discovered that astrophage was composed of unicellular organisms that absorb electromagnetic radiation from the Sun and expel it for propulsion. Grace joined Stratt's Project Hail Mary, an international "long-shot" mission to send a crewed spacecraft to Tau Ceti, the only star in Earth's solar neighborhood not occluded by astrophage. The flight to Tau Ceti would be a suicide mission, as the ship could only carry enough fuel for a one-way trip; any findings would have to return to Earth in smaller space probes. In the present, Grace encounters an alien spacecraft that docks with the Hail Mary. It is made of a solid form of xenon, which Grace dubs "xenonite". The ship's occupant is a rock-like, five-legged alien from Erid, a planet in the 40 Eridani A system. Grace names the alien "Rocky", deduces that Eridians "see" via echolocation, and creates a machine translation system to interpret Rocky's musical language into English. Rocky is a mechanical engineer and the sole survivor of the Eridians' mission to save their own star from astrophage infection. Grace and Rocky agree to work together, and become close friends. As neither can survive in the other's atmosphere, Rocky works aboard the Hail Mary inside a pressurized ball of xenonite. Grace and Rocky study the Petrova line of the planet Tau Ceti e, which Grace names "Adrian",{{cite web |url=https://www.techradar.com/streaming/entertainment/project-hail-mary-ending-explained |title=''Project Hail Mary'' Ending Explained: What happens to Ryland Grace and Rocky, will there be a sequel, and more on Ryan Gosling's new sci-fi movie |last=Power |first=Tom |website=[[TechRadar]] |date=March 20, 2026 |access-date=May 26, 2026 |archive-date=March 21, 2026 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20260321104440/https://www.techradar.com/streaming/entertainment/project-hail-mary-ending-explained |url-status=live}}"}},"i":0}}]}">[a] and discovers that the line hosts an entire microbial biosphere. Rocky theorizes that microbial organisms in Adrian's atmosphere are consuming the astrophage, keeping the population in check. Learning that Grace cannot return home, Rocky offers to share some of his own ship's astrophage fuel with the Hail Mary. Grace remembers that an astrophage explosion killed the original crew's science officers. With no time to train replacements, Stratt asked Grace to join the mission. During a risky maneuver to gather the astrophage predator from Adrian's atmosphere, a fuel leak causes the Hail Mary to spin uncontrollably, rendering Grace unconscious. Rocky breaks out of his ball to save Grace but is severely injured. While Rocky recovers, Grace studies the captured astrophage predator, dubbing it "taumoeba"[b] and selectively breeding it to survive the nitrogen in Venus's atmosphere. Rocky revives, and the two celebrate their success; Grace recalls that he fearfully refused to join the Hail Mary crew, but Stratt had him drugged and put aboard the ship anyway, believing he was the only one capable of completing the mission. Rocky and Grace say their goodbyes and begin their journeys back home. Shortly thereafter, Grace discovers that the taumoeba has evolved to escape its xenonite breeding tanks and is starting to consume Hail Mary's astrophage fuel. Grace stops the taumoeba leak, but realizes that Rocky's ship, being entirely made of xenonite, will have no way to contain the taumoeba; it will eat all of Rocky's fuel, stranding him and dooming Erid. Grace decides to use his remaining fuel to rescue Rocky and the Eridians rather than return home, and sends his video logs and taumoeba samples to Earth via the probes. Stratt and her team receive the probes and use the taumoeba to cure the Sun's astrophage infection. Meanwhile, on Erid, Grace lives in an Earth-like biodome the Eridians have constructed for him. Rocky informs him that Eridian scientists can prepare the Hail Mary for the return voyage to Earth. Grace ponders the news before beginning another day of teaching science to eager Eridian children. Cast Ryan Gosling, who portrays Dr. Ryland Grace, also served as a producer on the film Ryan Gosling as Ryland Grace, a middle school science teacher and former molecular biologist on a mission to save humanity[7] Sandra Hüller as Eva Stratt, the head of the international task force behind Project Hail Mary[8] James Ortiz as Rocky, an alien Grace encounters on his journey.[9] The character was effected through a puppet controlled by a team of five puppeteers led by Ortiz, dubbed the "Rockyteers", with Ortiz also providing the artificial voice assigned to him[10] Ortiz also has an uncredited role as a television presenter[11] Lionel Boyce as Carl, a member of security personnel Ken Leung as Yao Li-Jie, the Chinese commander of the Hail Mary spacecraft Milana Vayntrub as Olesya Ilyukhina, a Russian engineer on board the Hail Mary Priya Kansara as the voice of Mary, the Hail Mary's onboard computer[9] Malachi Kirby as Martin Dubois, the original scientist of the Hail Mary[12] Liz Kingsman as Annie Shapiro, a backup scientist of the Hail Mary Mia Soteriou as Dr. Browne Orion Lee as Dr. Li Michelle Greenidge as Chimamanda Additionally, Eunice Huthart (the film's stunt coordinator), Damien de Froberville (co-president of Sony Pictures Animation), Ray Porter (the audiobook narrator), and Meryl Streep provided the rejected alternative voices for Rocky.[13][14] Production Development In March 2020, Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer was nearing a deal to acquire adaptation rights to the then-upcoming Andy Weir novel Project Hail Mary (2021), with Ryan Gosling set to star in and produce the film.[7] The rights for the novel were acquired for $3 million.[15] In May 2020, Phil Lord and Christopher Miller were hired to direct and produce the film.[16] Due to Lord and Miller being unable to work on the screenplay because of commitments to Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse (2023), Drew Goddard (who previously adapted Weir's 2011 novel The Martian into a 2015 film) was hired the following month to write the screenplay.[17][18] In April 2024, Amazon, which acquired Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer in 2022,[19] revealed a possible 2026 release window for the film.[20] In May 2024, Sandra Hüller joined the cast, with Greig Fraser hired as cinematographer.[8] Milana Vayntrub joined the cast the following month.[21] Filming The film's crew, actors Ryan Gosling and Sandra Hüller, writer Drew Goddard, author/producer Andy Weir, and directors Phil Lord and Christopher Miller visiting NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory on February 25, 2026 Principal photography began on June 3, 2024, in the United Kingdom and wrapped on October 26, 2024.[22][23] Filming took place at Shepperton Studios.[24] Location filming occurred at The Hemel Hempstead School, the South Parade Pier in Portsmouth,[25] the Mullard Radio Astronomy Observatory in Cambridge,[26] and Durdle Door and Man o' War Cove in Dorset.[27][28][29] The film was "filmed for IMAX" by using large-sensor Arri Alexa 65 cameras, which provide 6.5K (20 MP) of resolution, with an aspect ratio of 2.1:1,[30] utilizing the whole sensor with anamorphic lenses rotated by 90 degrees to achieve the IMAX standard 1.43:1 aspect ratio. For regular presentations, the common 2:1 format (Univisium) was derived by cropping the top and bottom of the IMAX image. The film switches between taller and wider aspect ratios. When a scene takes place in the present, a taller aspect ratio is used—1.43:1 for IMAX 15/70 mm or Dual Laser, 1.85:1 for Xenon or Single Laser, and 2.00:1 for non-IMAX presentations. For scenes in the past, an aspect ratio of 2.39:1, a standard ratio for anamorphic process cinematography, was achieved with the regular use of anamorphic lenses.[31] In an interview with The Hollywood Reporter, Miller mentioned that no chroma keying was used in the film, with the entire set being shot practically.[32] Fraser had previously collaborated with visual effects supervisor Paul Lambert on the Dune films; their disdain for green and blue screens, which impacts lighting and visuals through color spill, led them to use blackouts and grey screens on the film instead.[33] Miller had previously stated that VFX was used to depict the spaceship from the outside, while shots of Gosling in space were shot against a black or varying color backdrop.[34] NASA provided support through both the input of scientific experts and astronaut Kjell N. Lindgren visiting Gosling during filming to share insights on human spaceflight.[35] Post-production The visual effects were developed by Framestore (which also collaborated on the film adaptation of The Martian),[36] Industrial Light & Magic (ILM), Sony Pictures Imageworks, BUF and Wylie Co. VFX, with Mags Sarnowska serving as visual effects supervisor alongside Lambert.[37] While puppeteer Ortiz voiced Rocky during filming with Gosling, it was initially thought that a more high-profile actor would replace him. However, Lord and Miller felt that Ortiz's performance could not be improved upon during screenings of the film.[38] Lord praised the collaboration between practical and visual effects in the creation of the character Rocky's performance: Rocky was built and designed by the legendary Neal Scanlan and his creature shop and is performed by puppeteering legend James Ortiz and his team, who were on set with Ryan in every scene. Rocky's performance is a beautiful collaboration between James and the other Rockyteers on set and the wonderful animators at Framestore led by the funny soulful Arslan Elver.[39] Miller noted that by the end of the film shots with Rocky were about 50% VFX animation and 50% puppetry.[40] The digitally shot and produced film was transferred to film stock and then re-digitized to achieve the "warmth" of analog film.[31] The initial test screening of the film was 3 hours and 45 minutes long, and was cut down to the final length due to feedback from the screenings.[41] Joel Negron served as film editor.[42] Music Main article: Project Hail Mary (soundtrack) It was announced at San Diego Comic-Con that Daniel Pemberton would score the film. Pemberton worked with Lord and Miller on Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse (2018) and its 2023 sequel, which they produced. This is the first film directed by Lord and Miller to not be scored by Mark Mothersbaugh.[43] The score, consisting of 38 tracks, was released digitally on March 20, 2026.[44] The film also includes fourteen other songs, including "Sign of the Times" by Harry Styles, "Two of Us" by the Beatles, "Rainbows" by Dennis Wilson and "Gracias a la vida" sung by Mercedes Sosa.[45] Marketing The film's title on the marquee of Moreland Theater in Portland, Oregon in March 2026 The first trailer was released on June 30, 2025.[46] It was the most-viewed trailer for any original film in the first week of its release, accumulating 400 million views globally.[47] Lego released a model of the Hail Mary spacecraft on March 1, 2026, as part of the Lego Icons series.[48] Release Theatrical Project Hail Mary was released on March 20, 2026, in 4,007 theaters by Amazon MGM Studios in the United States and Canada, and Sony Pictures Releasing International in all other territories.[5] It was also released in select IMAX theaters, with a 1.43:1 aspect ratio.{{cite web |last=D'Alessandro |first=Anthony |title=Ryan Gosling, Lord & Miller Amazon MGM Studios Space Adventure ''Project Hail Mary'' Sets Launch for Spring 2026 |date=April 18, 2024 |website=[[Deadline Hollywood]] |url=https://deadline.com/2024/04/ryan-gosling-project-hail-mary-release-date-1235889844/ |access-date=April 18, 2024 |archive-date=April 19, 2024 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20240419002823/https://deadline.com/2024/04/ryan-gosling-project-hail-mary-release-date-1235889844/ |url-status=live}}{{cite web |last=D'Alessandro |first=Anthony |title=Amazon MGM Studios & Sony Pictures Ink Multi-Year International Theatrical Distribution Deal |date=June 27, 2025 |website=[[Deadline Hollywood]] |url=https://deadline.com/2025/06/amazon-mgm-studios-sony-international-distribution-1236444141/ |access-date=July 1, 2025 |archive-date=June 27, 2025 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20250627130223/https://deadline.com/2025/06/amazon-mgm-studios-sony-international-distribution-1236444141/ |url-status=live}}{{cite web |last=Gray |first=Jeremy |date=June 30, 2025 |title=''Project Hail Mary'' Film Adaptation Looks Like a Visual Feast |url=https://petapixel.com/2025/06/30/project-hail-mary-film-adaptation-looks-like-a-visual-feast/ |access-date=July 1, 2025 |website=[[PetaPixel]] |archive-date=July 12, 2025 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20250712225014/https://petapixel.com/2025/06/30/project-hail-mary-film-adaptation-looks-like-a-visual-feast/ |url-status=live |language=en-US}}{{cite web |last=Kim |first=Anny |date=December 16, 2025 |title=Everything to know about ''Project Hail Mary'', coming soon from Amazon MGM Studios |url=https://www.aboutamazon.com/news/entertainment/project-hail-mary-ryan-gosling-amazon-mgm-studios |access-date=December 31, 2025 |publisher=About Amazon |language=en-US}}"}},"i":0}}]}">[c] Home media The film was released on digital streaming platforms on May 12, 2026.[53] It began streaming on the MGM+ subscription streaming service and Prime Video on June 18 and July 3, respectively.[54][55][56] It was also released on 4K Ultra HD Blu-ray, Blu-ray, and DVD on August 11, 2026, by Alliance Entertainment.[57] Following the standard disc release will be an Amazon exclusive three-disc SteelBook gift set, scheduled for October 13.[57] It will include a third disc with the film in its full 1.43:1 IMAX ratio, plus additional bonus material and a collectible booklet.[citation needed] Reception Box office As of September 11, 2026 Project Hail Mary has grossed $344.1 million in the United States and Canada, and $341.2 million in other territories, for a worldwide total of $685.3 million.[4][5] In the United States and Canada, Project Hail Mary was released on March 20, 2026, and was projected to gross $63–65 million in North America from 4,007 theaters in its opening weekend.[58] Initially, publications estimated that the film would gross $45–55 million.[59] After grossing $31 million on opening day, including $12 million in previews, the film debuted to $80.6 million in the United States and Canada,[60] and $60.4 million overseas for a worldwide total of $141 million,[61] becoming Amazon MGM Studios' biggest debut to date.[60] In its second weekend, the film made $54.1 million (a drop of 32.8%), remaining in first.[62] It was surpassed by The Super Mario Galaxy Movie in its third weekend, grossing $31.7 million.[63] In Japan, the film became the highest-grossing foreign film of 2026 in terms of box office revenue attendance on its first day of release.[64] Critical response The performances of Ryan Gosling, Sandra Hüller, and James Ortiz were praised by critics On the review aggregator website Rotten Tomatoes, 95% of 430 critics' reviews are positive, with an average rating of 8.2/10. The website's consensus reads: "A visually dazzling space odyssey that's carried along effortlessly by the gravitational pull of Ryan Gosling at his most winning, Project Hail Mary is a near-miraculous fusion of smarts and heart."[65] Metacritic, which uses a weighted average, assigned the film a score of 77 out of 100, based on 60 critics, indicating "generally favorable" reviews.[66] Audiences polled by CinemaScore gave the film an "A" on an A+ to F scale.[67] The film received an average rating of 8 out of 10 from Cine21.[68] G. Allen Johnson of the San Francisco Chronicle deemed it "a masterpiece of a family popcorn movie, with eye-popping hand-crafted production design and outstanding creature design and puppetry work."[69] Randy Myers of The Mercury News gave the film a 3.5/4 rating, writing: "While you can't help but marvel at the visuals and applaud the commitment of Gosling's endearing performance, what also makes Project Hail Mary so gosh darn lovable is that it imbues us with child-like wonder from scenes that pay homage to such classics as E.T., Flight of the Navigator and, yes, Rocky."[70] Cosplay of Ryland Grace with a fan-created Rocky prop at NärCon 2026 Robbie Collin of The Telegraph concluded in his review: "Does it have many original ideas of its own? Perhaps not. But its greatest hits mixtape of other people's has been compiled with such flair – as well as a sound comprehension of why they worked so well the first time – that it's hard not to be swept up regardless."[71] Barry Hertz of The Globe and Mail shared a similar opinion, writing: "At almost every turn, Project Hail Mary attempts to convince you that it is groundbreaking, innovative filmmaking. But in actuality, the movie lands as a grand act of cinematic recycling – the fusing together of familiar, comforting bits and pieces into something determined to please crowds and warm hearts."[72] Amy Nicholson of the Los Angeles Times wrote: "While Stanley Kubrick's unsentimental 2001: A Space Odyssey inspired the iPad, Lord and Miller want to inspire a better version of us."[73] Brian Truitt of USA Today gave the film a four out of four rating, writing that "Project Hail Mary is one of those old-school popcorn movies with big ideas, the kind of film that Steven Spielberg and George Lucas would have made back in the day and kids of all ages would have obsessed over and bought the toys."[74] Ryan Cooper of The American Prospect wrote that the film portrayed a "shockingly realistic view of heroism" and was "one of the rare films that is quite a bit better than the book".[75] Peter Bradshaw of The Guardian wrote: "Gosling is an effortlessly charming screen player, and he keeps it watchable, though the film itself has moments of dullness and a sort of puppyish silliness [...] Perhaps refreshingly, the film doesn't aim for the stunned awe and rapture of, say, Christopher Nolan's Interstellar or even Jon Spaihts' underrated Passengers, but it does have the classic sci-fi spacecraft tropes: the huge, mysterious architecture with its vertiginous tunnels in which legacy pop music is played to soothe the inhabitants."[76] GVSU anthropology professor Deana L. Weibel praised Grace's intellectual humility in the film.[77] Nicholas Barber of the BBC declared it one of the best films of 2026, writing: Project Hail Mary is an unusual science-fiction blockbuster in that it's mostly about people using their brains to solve problems [...] Does that approach sound a bit dry and academic? If so, rest assured that Project Hail Mary is touching and inspiring – and surprisingly fun [...] it's directed by Phil Lord and Christopher Miller, who take a complicated, potentially bleak narrative and make it as fast-paced and cheerful as their animated hit The Lego Movie. Meanwhile, Ryan Gosling brings all of his goofball charm to the role of an amnesiac biologist who is trying to save the world.[78] Conversely, Owen Gleiberman of Variety called it "not a very good movie", adding that "it's baggy and incredibly derivative of movies you've seen before [...] More crucially, everything to do with the onboard alien is far too cute and formulaic".[79]

What if civilizations don't collapse because of armies, economics, or politics?What if they collapse because the invisible agreements that hold people together begin to break?In the opening episode of The Odyssey series, Jay explores Christopher Nolan's portrayal of the Trojan Horse and not simply as a military strategy, but as the moment trust itself becomes weaponized.The discussion examines Zeus's Law, the fragile architecture of culture, and the idea that the fall of Troy began long before its walls came down. Through philosophy, leadership, business, and personal reflection, this episode argues that culture is the invisible foundation beneath every organization, every family, every civilization, and every lasting relationship.Key TopicsCulture as invisible architectureThe Trojan Horse as the weaponization of trustZeus's Law and the civilizational compactWhy the culture was already cracked before the lieLeadership, strategy, and how we winFounders, organizations, and the responsibility of protecting culturePersonal responsibility, conscience, and redemptionPractical leadership lessons for entrepreneurs, executives, and organizationsMemorable Ideas"The Trojan Horse was the weaponization of trust.""They won a game and lost the ability to play any longer.""How we win matters.""The lie didn't create the crack.

Al, Zach, Christian, and John Luke dig into The Odyssey, comparing Christopher Nolan's interpretation with Homer's original, from the diminished role of the Greek gods to Penelope's complicated fight to preserve her family and kingdom. They explore Telemachus' struggle to grow up without his father and the stark contrast between men who build and protect and those who simply live off what others have built. The guys ultimately contrast Odysseus' long journey home with Christianity's radically different picture of God bringing his people home.

Christopher Nolan is one of the few directors in the world of film using traditional techniques mixed with practical modern effects to make his movies. For years he was accused of whitewashing and downplaying women alongside of criticism for telling his stories in a non-linear fashion with variations in the audio. He is also criticized for relying on explanatory dialogue instead of an overload of stimulating images. Suddenly, however, his movie The Odyssey is being called "woke" for the casting of racially-different actors and for interpreting the original story in a modern way, even portraying Odysseus as weak because the movie relied on the psychology of trauma. Ironically, the so-called diverse cast saw very little air time, and some of them were not horrible performances. Portraying Odysseus as more human and interpreting his journey through a modern lens is not in any way new to a Nolan film. Most of his films rely heavily on psychology and somewhat unorthodox dialogue. Some castings don't work, but others do; like when he was criticized for casting Heath Ledger as the Joker, which turned out to be one of the single greatest performances in cinema history. When asked about the "woke" accusations, Nolan doubled down on his body of work and made no attempt to justify it based on politics, race, gender, etc. In other words, it appears that accusations of "woke" are based on nothing but broken, hollow arguments that are looking for conspiracies and something to be angry about. In this case, it is coming from the right rather than the left. Furthermore, Nolan uses practical effects to create plane crashes, atomic bombs, and even giant cyclopes, instead of relying on CGI, something that again, ironically, something the anti-woke people are usually complaining about in Hollywood needing to change. *The is the FREE archive, which includes advertisements.

Emily Wilson is a classicist whose translations of The Iliad and The Odyssey are popular and controversial. Recently, she was at the center of the discourse surrounding Christopher Nolan's film adaptation of The Odyssey. Her new book of essays reflects on translation and the role of classics in modern society. In it, she argues that "it is a waste of everyone's time if a retranslation takes more or less the same approach as one or more existing published translations." In today's episode, she speaks with NPR's Joel Rose about Crossing the Wine-Dark Sea.Support public media with NPR+ and enjoy perks for over 25 podcasts like this one.

A goddess offers Odysseus immortality. He says no.Eight years on Calypso's island. Paradise, more or less. And he spends his days sitting on the beach, weeping for a rocky little kingdom he may never see again.Welcome to Part 2 (of 6!) of our series on Homer's great epic.Part 2 covers Books 5 to 8. We finally meet the man himself, and he arrives naked, half drowned, and buried under a pile of leaves. Why would anyone choose death over eternal life? And why does the greatest hero of the age get home on charm rather than force?Follow Odysseus as he builds his own raft, survives Poseidon's wrath, and talks his way into the most powerful household on the island of the Phaeacians. Meet the women who hold the real power: Calypso, the princess Nausicaa, and Queen Arete, honored like no woman of Homer's own day. Plus King Alcinous, and the blind bard Demodocus, whose song brings Odysseus to tears.Christopher Nolan cut three of these four books from his film. They may be the ones that tell you most about who Odysseus really is.Timestamps:00:57 Women, Power and Odysseus03:19 Hermes Visits Calypso05:25 Odysseus Trapped and Weeping06:14 Zeus Orders Release11:03 Calypso's Final Offer14:07 Why Mortality Matters17:45 Raft Building and Agency20:32 Poseidon's Storm and Shipwreck23:29 Phaeacia's Backstory24:10 Nausicaa's Dream28:10 Nausicaa Meets Odysseus30:54 Winning Nausicaa's Trust39:47 Athena Guides Odysseus40:53 Bronze Age Heroic Lens43:48 Arete and Royal Honor46:32 Palace Splendor and Supplication49:19 Clothes Test and Charm52:53 Cleos and the Bard56:12 Feast and Demodocus Song01:02:04 Games and Odysseus Flexes01:06:46 Aphrodite and Ares Trap01:13:03 Gifts and Nausicaa's Farewell01:14:56 Trojan Horse Song and Tears01:22:43 Closing ThoughtsCallouts:Special thanks to Dr. Richard Johnson for his longtime support of the show.
