It's Die Hard in a simulation!This week, hosts Phil and Liam are following the white rabbit into one of the most prophetic and influential movie of the 90s - The Matrix (1999) - with special guest Matt Zoller Seitz, the renowned Editor at Large of rogerebert.com. He is a Features Writer at New York Magazine, and is the author of many books, including books on Wes Anderson, Mad Men, The Sopranos, and many more. Matt not only loves this movie, but talks eloquently about how it changed his life. Released in the banner year of 1999, The Matrix follows Thomas Anderson, a mild-mannered software engineer who moonlights as a notorious hacker known as Neo, discovers to his horror that the world he lives in is actually an elaborate simulated reality created by intelligent machines who have subjugated humanity. Guided by the enigmatic resistance leader Morpheus (Laurence Fishburne) and the skilled warrior Trinity (Carrie-Anne Moss), Neo learns the truth about the Matrix and his potential role as "The One," a prophesied savior who can bend, and perhaps break, its rules. As he battles powerful Agents led by the ruthless Agent Smith (Hugo Weaving), Neo must embrace his destiny and free his mind to prevent the machines' enslavement of humanity.We talk about the film's unexpected connections to Die Hard (Kinda blowing Matt's mind), the movie's philosophical complexity (Plato! Descartes! Baurdrillard!), it's appropriation by both the right and left-wing, and if it can be seen, 26 years on, as being somewhat optimistic. We also talk about the culture-chaning action, the amazing performances by Reeves, Moss, Fishburne, and Weaving, and how the movie's style hasn't aged a day. So call your operator and strap in for one of our most mind-blowing episodes yet!Listen now, wherever you get your podcasts! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Love them or hate them, reality TV dating shows are one of the most enduring formats of the small screen. It seems like TV producers will take any concept and turn it into a dating show. They run the full gamut, from the earnestness of First Dates to the artifice of Love Island and the questionable 90 Day Fiancé. But if they didn't net big ratings for TV execs, they wouldn't keep making them. So what keeps us going back for more? Self-appointed ‘hunk correspondent' for The Irish Times, Patrick Freyne, loves to review these shows as Features Writer. In this episode of In The News, he analyses the good, the bad and the ugly and why they make such compelling viewing. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

April Gargiulo is the Founder & CEO of California-based skincare brand Vintner's Daughter.  With only two products on the market, the brand has refused to play ball with beauty industry - Vitner's Daughter runs without a marketing team, it refuses to release products for the sake of it, and focusses on 100% active products. April created her Active Botanical Serum because she was tired of compromising on quality. She didn't have a background in beauty; instead coming from the world of fine winemaking and applied that same level of dedication and commitment to quality seen in the historical industry to her brand. In her own words – “You can't take shortcuts.”In the latest episode of The Beauty Edit podcast, April joins Tom Shearsmith, Senior News and Features Writer, to tell us how she founded the business, her choices of raw ingredients, the brands dedication to sustainability and slow-production, product development and innovation, and how ignoring all the rules has allowed her to stand out in a crowded beauty marketGet breaking news as it happens and be the first to know when our podcasts go live by following:  INSTAGRAM
