Lee, Daniel & Jack hunker down in a van full of sweaty tech bros and spy on everyone in this week's episode covering "Enemy of the State" (1998), directed by Tony Scott, and starring Will Smith and Gene Hackman. Is this a sequel to "The Conversation", as movie discourse seems to demand it be these days, or it it just a massive piece of shit? This is talked about, and more, including what the hosts have watched this week. Now quick, sweep for bugs before you listen! "Enemy of the State" IMDB Jack and Daniel can be heard together on the I Don't Speak German podcast. The Art of Storytelling and The Book of Henry, by Dan Olson, as mentioned by Daniel in the episode. Daniel's Bluesky and Patreon. Jack's Bluesky and Patreon.

Julius the Nice Dragon offered us a true Patron's Choice: Return to The Dunks or choose a new path. We still had plenty of iced coffees to trade, so we made the only choice we could as Bostonians. We rarely recommend prerequisites for episodes, but we think you should check out our review of the first book in this series before listening to today's episode because a) it's a good episode and b) we'll address elements of the series in that episode that we skipped today: Episode 165 - First, Impressions (Book #1 of Last Intentions) by SJ Saunders Patron's Choice Musings and derailments in this episode include: Boston, the MBTA, Mass Metal Gear Solid, store brand names, and a brief glimpse into Fourth Wing horrors (this was recorded much earlier this year and was perhaps where Chris got his idea to surprise Paris on the 200th episode). *Local primaries and the general election are both coming up fast! Head to vote.org to check your voter registration, register to vote, preview your next ballot, or request a mail-in or absentee ballot.* Referenced in this episode: Weird Studies - Visions of the Wasteland: On George Miller's 'Mad Max' Films: On the post-apocalyptic sci-fi glory of the Mad Max franchise Folding Ideas - Contrepreneurs: The Mikkelsen Twins: Another fantastic Dan Olson piece on a book publishing MLM/pyramid scheme/scam In addition to our usual barnyard language, today's episode discusses body horror, action-movie violence, suicide, guns/weapons, and medical experimentation like cloning, mind control, and genetic alteration.

In this interview I spoke to Jonathan Mann (@songadaymann), also known as the Song A Day guy, who has, in case you can't tell, published a new song every day for the past ~14 years. There's a good chance you've heard one of his songs at some point since many have gone viral in the past! He has also turned all of his songs over the years into NFTs which has formed the basis for the creation of a larger project called SongADAO Coop (for full transparency, I also own one NFT of one of his songs which is played at the end).During the interview we talked about his experience of making a song every day over the internet, how became interested in NFTs, starting SongADAO Coop, and how it's changed his practice and life. We also talked a bit about his interview with Dan Olson before his Line Goes Up video came out on his podcast Digitally Rare and what he left out, how he went about making sure SongADAO adhered to cooperative principles and the libertarian to cooperativist pipeline. You can also find the interview I did on Digitally Rare here a few months ago.Mentioned SourcesHow Jonathan started in crypto and ended up making SongADAOPodcast series on how Jonathan goes about making his songsIf you liked the podcast be sure to give it a review on your preferred podcast platform.

I have friends who've earned literally hundreds of thousands of dollars leveraging the NFT shell game to great effect. But they did so with no delusions of grandeur, just wanting to take part in the early stages of an obvious MLM scheme. So I guess good on them for getting in early and milking the cash cow. But I still find the whole thing distasteful. Ha.
The hype around cryptocurrencies has reached a fever pitch. There are Super Bowl ads for crypto companies featuring celebrities like Matt Damon and Larry David. The Staples Center in Los Angeles is now the Crypto.com Arena. And behind that hype is a distinct vision: a more decentralized economy where individuals have more autonomy over their finances, a grass-roots internet free of the not-so-invisible hand of Big Tech, and a cultural ecosystem where artists and musicians can fairly monetize their work.But what if that vision is deeply flawed? What if the technology undergirding cryptocurrencies isn't what it's cracked up to be? Or what if the technology does work, yet the world it creates isn't a decentralized utopia but a hyper-financialized dystopia?Dan Olson is the creator of a two-hour-YouTube video, “Line Goes Up,” that has now been viewed nearly seven million times. “Line Goes Up” is the single most comprehensive critique of crypto that I've ever heard. And that's because Olson isn't just focused on cryptocurrencies as a technology or an asset class, but on the crypto universe as a distinct culture underpinned by a powerful ideology. It's easy to think about the lingo, the acronyms and the myths associated with the crypto world as incidental to the value of cryptocurrencies and NFTs as assets. But for Olson, the culture and the currency are inextricably linked. And once you've made that connection, suddenly a lot of the problems, warning signs and potential dangers of crypto become visible in a new way.Mentioned:“A Crypto Optimist Meets a Crypto Skeptic” from “The Ezra Klein Show”“How NFTs Create Value” by Steve Kaczynski and Scott Duke KominersYou Are Not a Gadget by Jaron Lanier“Web3 Is Going Just Great” by Molly WhiteThe Gift by Lewis HydeBook recommendations:The Power Broker by Robert A.

Jared, Oriana and Ned talk about Ned's choice of topic: Ralph Bakshi's animated film adaptation of The Lord of the Rings. A heavily promoted effort at the time due it being both the first ever version of Tolkien's work done for film as well as due to Bakshi's notable reputation as the most well known American animator since Walt Disney and Chuck Jones, the 1978 movie was a reasonable success but not a smash, and the fact that it was only the first half of a planned two-film sequence – but not marketed as such – led to confused audiences and an upset Tolkien reader fanbase. At once a surprisingly faithful if still heavily redacted version of the book and a very unusual mix of animation styles that grew out of Bakshi's earlier movies, the film has retained a cult following since, and the resulting contrast with the later Peter Jackson movies has proven illuminating to both. What makes the sequences like the Flight to the Ford both compelling viewing and something of a slog? Which voice actors bring a notable depth to their characters along with the script and animation efforts – and which ones end up undercutting their characters completely? How does the shifting between particular animation styles, even within scenes, both act as intriguing experiment aiming to solve particular problems and yet also a confusing mess? And what is up with that incredibly generic musical score?SHOW NOTES.Jared's doodle. Jackson riffed on this scene for a reason.And Jared did bake a cake for Megaphonic's Kitchen Party! Check it out.The new Tolkien Estate page, worth a poke around.The Tolkien Society's announcement of Priscilla Tolkien's passing.Ralph Bakshi's site. The specific Lord of the Rings page has a variety of stills, behind the scenes shots and preparatory work from the production.The IMDB entry for Bakshi's production. (The film is available for streaming from a variety of services.)The AFI catalog entry for the production.Ralph Bakshi: Forging Through the Darkness, a short documentary.The Tolkien Experience, Episode 32: Ralph Bakshi, an extended interview by Luke Shelton.An Exhaustive History of Ralph Bakshi's Lord of the Rings by Dan Olson of Folding Ideas. (And as we spoke about in the episode, Olson's two hour plus video on NFTs and crypto is an absolute must-watch.)Three Rings For Hollywood, Janet Brennan Croft's short comparative study of various film script adaptations of The Lord of the Rings up through Bakshi's adaptation.‘Will the Video Version of Tolkien Be Hobbit Forming?,' John Culhane's late 1977 New York Times story on the Rankin-Bass Hobbit which also includes separate quotes from Bakshi on his then-forthcoming adaptation.Vincent Canby's review of the film for the New York Times.Roger Ebert's review of the film for the Chicago Sun-Times.Mythlore 19, Winter 1979, which contains two reviews of the film from Steven Walker and Dale Ziegler.Information on Amon Hen 39, published in June 1979, which contains four separate reviews of the film, including the Mythlore review from Steven Walker.‘Hobbits On Film,' Glenn Gaslin's 2001 retrospective consideration of the Bakshi production for Slate, written in the run-up to the release of Peter Jackson's Fellowship of the Ring.Bakshi's 2015 interview with TheOneRing.net.Austen Gilkenson's extended 2018 study of the film for Tor, part one and part two.Ned's own 2018 piece about the film and other Tolkien adaptations of the time, published in the Quietus.A TV ad for the film.The Electric Company Magazine! And like Ned said, there was a tie-in issue.As for the board game, it had Shelob at least.You know the Spider-man meme. As for Bakshi on his Spider-man experience, he's not thrilled…That Legolas reaction. It's a choice.The Flight to the Ford scene – well worth watching even if you don't know the full film, it sums up both the strengths and oddities of the adaptation.An example of the intriguing angular design of the Shire woods in the Shadow of the Past Goes Outdoors sequence. (Compare to Eyvind Earle's work on Disney's Sleeping Beauty.)The full Lothlorien sequence, with Galadriel's fashion sense, the strange elf choir, the training montage as such and the Mirror of Galadriel highs and lows.Two notable sequences showing how Bakshi's Aragorn is as Jared puts it ‘his' Aragorn (costume aside): his meeting with the Hobbits in the Prancing Pony parlor and Boromir's death, especially with the wordless reaction from Aragorn near the end of the clip.The Council of Elrond sequence definitely is a moment. Not a GOOD moment…The Shadow of the Past sequence, with the quick cuts of the seasons, Gandalf being crabby and stagy, Frodo's agape reaction to the Ring being tossed into the fire and so forth.Gandalf meets Saruman – or Aruman, depending on the line. Orthanc's design and Saruman's MANY COLORS! included.The hobbits first encounter the Nazgul, and it's a truly creepy moment.Ah yes the Balrog. We agree with the title of this clip.Aside from the opening credits, the prologue sequence is really impressive as we note. But yeah that one Elves bit.Our episode on Peter Jackson's Fellowship of the Ring. And our orc episode.Gollum being Gollum. And almost being redeemed towards the end of this clip. (Per Jared's comparison, here's Quentin Crisp on Letterman.)Grima petting Theoden. Can't put it any plainer.Sam, Sam, Sam. Where to begin? So many examples. And then there's that ‘moment.'Aragorn takes a tumble. Helm's Deep here is not exactly Jackson's.That's one big skull in Moria. Meantime, is Rivendell a lamasery?If you REALLY want to hear the soundtrack… But yes, just listen to Rosenman's Star Trek IV soundtrack instead as Jared suggests.The heroic ending! Sorta. Maybe.

A strangely off-beat throwback to the Final Fantasy of yesteryear? A sunny journey into the heart of existential crisis? A relic outdone by its shinier successor? Final Fantasy IX is many things to many people. Only recently has the general gaming population begun to look back and notice the entry in Square Enix's long-running series that came only a year before X moved the series into a new console generation. Dan Olson from Folding Ideas joins the podcast for a two-part episode discussing Final Fantasy IX's fascinating development history and subtly powerful narrative. Does a PlayStation 1 title from the turn of the millennium earn a place in video game canon? Is Final Fantasy IX one of the best games period? Part one focuses on our special guest, the development history of Final Fantasy IX, and our individual experiences with the title. Part two delves into an attempt at summarizing the intricate plot and some narrative dissection in an effort to get at the heart of why IX has always felt different from the rest of the franchise.
