In the suburbs of New Jersey, where temple gossip flows like Manischewitz wine, eleven-year-old Andy becomes entangled in a whirlwind of maternal quirks and religious intrigue. His mother's bizarre obsession with Rabbi Landy transforms their once-quiet life above a candy store into a tale of surprises.Andy's world features a colorful cast: a fiery sister, an invisible brother, a precociously sexual savant best friend with green teeth, and a foul-mouthed neighbor who rivals the 50-Foot Woman. As he navigates from confusion to understanding, his journey is filled with humor and heartfelt moments.When forced into yeshiva with the rabbi's insufferable sons, Andy becomes drawn to his magnetic Talmud teacher, Rabbi Loobling. His exploration of faith, desire, and family secrets unfolds from the streets of the Garden State to the halls of college, revealing the complex adults around him.Rabbis of the Garden State delivers a sharp look at synagogue life laced with teenage yearning. This powerful portrayal of suburban Jewish life in the '60s is both funny and moving. As Andy transitions to adulthood, the mysteries of childhood unravel, exposing secrets and deep truths about family, faith, and the unexpected twists of love. Daniel Meltz's beautifully crafted debut novel captures the spirit of an era and delves into the timeless questions of belonging, belief, and the complicated relationships that shape us all.Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/houseofmysteryradio.

January is the time for Second Breakfast where we call a do-over on one of our mandated movies and try another.

So, I'm taking another crack at the theme with another movie I shoulda seen by now, The Best Little Whorehouse In Texas. All I know is that it's got Dolly Parton in it and that's good enough for me because Dolly's awesome! 0:00 - Trivial Trivia 13:12 - The Best Little Whorehouse In Texas review 1:03:25 - Next episode's mandated movie We'll be back in two weeks with another mandated movie.

Ever wondered what happens when classic cinema gets a modern twist? Our latest episode peeks behind the curtain of Tim Burton and Gillian Flynn's reimagination of "Attack of the 50-Foot Woman," exploring the depths of womanly wrath and current power dynamics. We kick things off with a chuckle, contemplating the hilariously unintended consequences of our deepest desires—yes, even that cheeseburger comes with a side of irony. And while we're at it, we tip our hats to the comedic prowess of Sacha Baron Cohen, whose characters continue to surprise us despite his fame.From there, we switch gears to honor the legendary Carl Weathers, taking you through his journey from the boxing ring right up to the stars in "The Mandalorian." Horror aficionados, fasten your seat belts as we dissect the spine-chilling '90s classic "Wishmaster," with its blend of stunning and cringe-worthy special effects. The Djinn's transformation is on the chopping block as we rate the effects and draw parallels to a certain Dragon Ball Z figure. And for those horror cameo enthusiasts, we've got your fix with appearances from horror greats like Robert Englund and Tony Todd.But wait, there's more! As we look back fondly at "Starman," we also gear up for the upcoming season of 'True Detective' with eager anticipation. We're not just about reminiscing, though; we're here setting the rules of engagement for movie-watching. No spoilers, no incessant questioning—just the pure, thrilling ecstasy of cinematic discovery. Join us as we celebrate the stories that shaped our past and tease those that promise to captivate our future.Visit Loved Again Media:https://lovedagainmedia.com/binge Support the showDrop us a voicemail https://bit.ly/VOICEMAILTHEPODSay hi? host@bwpodcast.comPartner with us? sales@bwpodcast.com

Yvette Vickers was born Yvette Iola Vedder on August 26, 1928. She was an American actress, pin-up model, and singer. Her two most famous films were Attack of the 50 Foot Woman (1958) as Honey Parker, and Liz Walker in Attack of the Giant Leeches (1959). She was also photographed by Russ Meyer for Playboy's Playmate of the Month in the July 1959 issue. Yvette has an interesting life story and I hope I told it well.Here is a link to John O'Dowd website about Ms. VickersREMEMBERING MY FRIEND, THE BEAUTIFUL YVETTE VICKERS
Author Katharine Coldiron wrote her book, Junk Film: Why Bad Movies Matter around thirteen essays exploring movies from the 1940's to the 2010's. Ed Wood's Plan 9 From Outer Space, Attack of the 50 Foot Woman, Staying Alive, and the musical television show Cop Rock are just some of the disastrous projects explored in the book. Katharine feels that bad movies can be unintentional teaching tools for film students and movie aficionados- but you have to watch a ton of bad movies before you can learn anything from them. There are specific elements that all bad movies share: insufficient resources, incompetence in the basics of filmmaking, and bad acting or screenwriting that create unintentional comedy. Bad movies are actually records of ATTEMPTS at making a movie, and you can see the broken mechanics of each project discussed in Junk Film. In writing the book, Katharine chose to focus on movies she was interested in exploring. She didn't want to write about movies that have been well-covered. For example, she chose not to write about Tommy Wiseau's The Room, but instead focused on his follow-up, another stinker called Best Friends. Katharine feels that the problem with most junk films is not the cinematography, which is at least usually competent. Where these films fail is in the directing and editing process, with the director incompetently stringing along narrative logic from one scene to another. After watching so many bad movies, Katharine has a pointer for creating a good movie: if the director, editor and crew is cohesive, competent, and cares about the film's final quality, then your movie will at least be watchable.

W drugim z trzech odcinków dotyczących monster movies przyglądamy się zjawisku najobszerniejszemu, czyli potworom kroczącym na powierzchni ziemi. Morskie bestie pojawiły się wprawdzie wcześniej, ale to sukces filmów z gigantycznymi naczelnymi (z "King Kongiem" z 1933 roku na czele) spopularyzował cały nurt, który rozciągnął się także na olbrzymich rozmiarów homo sapiens, zaginione ogniwa pomiędzy człowiekiem a małpą, owady i pajęczaki, ssaki, gady oraz niezliczone inne kreatury, których nie da się w żaden sposób usystematyzować. Więcej dowiecie się z kolejnego odcinka podcastu Nightslime. Rozmawiamy o nowatorskich efektach specjalnych wykorzystanych w pierwszym "King Kongu" i o szeregu zainspirowanych nim filmów - od dzisiaj zaginionego, japońskiego "Edo ni Arawareta Kingu Kongu" przez "Kongę", której komiksową wersję rysował Steve Ditko po parodię "Queen Kong". Będzie także o przerośniętych homo sapiens na przykładzie chociażby "Attack of the 50 Foot Woman", któremu hołdowali między Quentin Tarantino i Johnny Bravo oraz o gatunkach pośrednich - yetim, sasquatch (już drugi film w historii z jego udziałem był horrorem pornograficznym), a także o wilkołakach. Przywołujemy najpaskudniejsze filmy z gargantuicznych rozmiarów robactwem, które w XXI wieku okazały się całkiem popularne w serwisach VOD (dość wspomnieć produkcje Mike'a Mendeza - "Wilkodupego pająka" i "Lawalantulę", gdzie wyłażące z wulkany pająki mierzą się z niemal całą główną obsadą "Akademii policyjnej"). Będzie także o duńskim gadzie zabójcy z "Reptilicus", polskiej "Klątwie Doliny Węży" i "Pulgasari" - filmie produkcji koreańskiej, ale nie południowokoreańskiej, do czego przywykliśmy, a północnokoreańskiej, co nie zdarza się często (i o związanej z nim przerażającej historii porwania reżysera przez dyktatora Kim Dzong Ila).Patronami odcinka są:Paweł Jaksik, Jakub Kraszewski, Sebastian Wojtasik
Throughout movie history, makeup artists have helped create new faces for the silver screen, whether they were just changing their look to creating a new monster never before seen. As the years progressed, what used to only be images we could dream of, these makeup artists help bring them to life, giving generations and generations both a sense of wonder, and nightmares! We decided to go through the cinematic history and discuss different monsters and makeup creations that have amazed and astonished us. And to help us, we figured why not have a guest that has been in the trenches for over three decades, Mr. Gino Crognale! So hit play, sit back and enjoy this trip down memory lane.

One of the most influential pop culture icons of 1950s scifi comes alive on the big screen in 1958’s “Attack of the 50 Foot Woman”. With some of the most iconic poster art of all time, we dive into this campy classic to see if the film is worth the time. Is this film worth of its long legacy or is it another in the line of over hyped and under performing American monster movies? Find out on this week’s episode of Kaiju Vs. History.

Merry Christmas and happy holidays to all who celebrate! We're taking some time off this week for travel and family fun, but looking forward to sharing new episodes soon. For now, a watershed moment for our community: The Macrophilia episode, #93 from July 22, 2019. Enjoy! -Original Show Notes- Macrophilia is a surprisingly popular fetish involving sexual fantasies about giants — specifically, giant women. Being at the mercy of giants, or being coddled or crushed by them are staples of the community, but size change motifs also are common. Stories and media about giants (like the 1958 horror B-movie Attack of the 50 Foot Woman) or size change (1989's Honey, I Shrunk the Kids) have become touch points for the macrophilia community, though many have also taken to making their own media and pornography using visual effects. Alli and Jen talk with Pete, the webmaster of Giantess City, one of the largest online content and community hubs for macrophiles. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Follow Along You're listening to 51%, a WAMC production dedicated to women's issues and experiences. Thanks for joining us, I'm Jesse King. This week we're continuing our conversations with some of this fall's Logan Nonfiction fellows at the Carey Institute for Global Good. The program is currently remote for the coronavirus pandemic, so unfortunately fellows aren't getting their usual retreat at the Carey Institute's campus in Rensselaerville, New York - but its writers, filmmakers, podcasters, and photographers are still developing their projects and swapping advice through various online seminars and workshops. Tsanavi Spoonhunter spoke with me from Montana while filming her upcoming documentary Holder of the Sky. Spoonhunter is an American Indian reporter and filmmaker, and citizen of the Northern Arapahoe Tribe. Much of her storytelling focuses on Indian Country, including her latest documentary short, Crow Country: Our Right to Food Sovereignty, which has been screening at various festivals and venues. As she heads into the Logan Nonfiction Program, however, her focus is on Holder of the Sky. Tell me about Holder of the Sky. What is your focus with the film? So Holder of the Sky chronicles several tribes in the state of Wisconsin and their struggle to retain their treaty rights that were made with the government back in the 1800s - and how those treaty rights are still being challenged today, and what that looks like in present day. I focus on the Lac du Flambeau up in northern Wisconsin, the Oneida Nation, which is just outside of Green Bay, and then the Menominee tribe. For those who don't know, what are some examples of the treaty rights that you were examining in the film? Like what do treaty rights usually entail? Yeah, so a treaty right is a binding agreement between two sovereign nations. When the U.S. government started relocating tribes to reservations, that affected tribal life, their daily life. Tribes weren't able to go and access their traditional homelands for food or any of the things that they did. And so with those agreements, tribes were able to negotiate, "If I go on to a reservation, I'll be able to go off the reservation to hunt and fish anywhere that I want." That is an example of one of the tribes in Wisconsin that we're following: they were able to go out and practice their traditional spear-hunting rights. And then, you know, there was an uprising known as the Walleye Wars, and this is just one example in the film. Tribal members went off the reservation, and were hunting using a spearfishing tradition, and local, non-tribal folks got really upset, because they felt that tribes were given a privilege - that they were given more privileges than any other U.S. citizen, without really understanding the treaty rights and what tribes sacrificed in order to obtain that right to spearfish. I think that's a good example to highlight, you know about treaty rights in the United States. And it plays to the present day: we're following one character who was recently shot at last spring while he was spearfishing. Most of the tribes you're looking at are in Wisconsin. What brings you to Montana? So there's actually a national organization - it's evolved over time. But that event that I described earlier about the spearfishing, there was an organization called PAR - but today, it evolved, and it's called the Citizens for Equal Rights Alliance. And it's basically a group that challenges the rights of tribes. And so one of the leaders of that organization lives here in Montana. She was challenging the rights of another tribe that we're following in Wisconsin. I found the title Holder of the Sky from a creation story of the Oneida Nation in Wisconsin, and the Oneida Nation is probably one of the most powerful nations in the country. They were originally from New York, and they were moved to Wisconsin by treaty. And so they were given a certain acreage of land. Later on after that treaty, a non-native community wanted to establish a town on that land. And the tribe resisted, and they were like, "No, we do not want a town here. This is our treaty land." And the state said, "No, that's fine. They could start a town on that land." And so ever since then, there's always been some kind of strife between the two communities. But as of recently, it's gotten even worse over jurisdiction. The two communities are the Oneida Nation and the village of Hobart, and the village of Hobart is home to a lot of Green Bay Packers - it's a pretty wealthy suburb outside of Green Bay. And they're trying to expand on the tribal land. And the tribe is saying, "No, this is our land. We want to keep our land." But then Hobart is saying, "No, we were trying to buy land to expand." Elaine Willman is part of the Center for Equal Rights Alliance, which is the group that I had mentioned earlier that challenges the rights of tribes across the country. And so she was flown in to help with a jurisdictional issue that was happening between Oneida and Hobart. And so she's just a very interesting character. So yeah, we're here filming with her in Montana now. And she's actually doing some work against the Flathead Indian Reservation, but that's another subject. But she's still heavily involved with Oneida and Hobart relations. Tell me a little more about what's going on here, from both sides. What argument is the village of Hobart making to say that they should be allowed to expand? Because to me, obviously, I don't know a lot about the situation, but it looks like it should be pretty cut and dry. There's an agreement giving this land to the Oneida Nation. So it's theirs, right? Yeah, that's the thing, that's a good question. And that's what I'm hoping to answer in the film. Because when you look at it, and you learn about it, it's like, "This makes sense. Why are they resisting this?" Right? And with Elaine, that I'm talking to now, and the village of Hobart - their argument is that they want to expand, they want to build development, they want to have the tax base to have a better support for their communities. They just want more money, I guess. And with tribal communities, it's a whole different concept of land management. They don't see it as economic development. They care for their land, like, Oneida bought some land just so that it wouldn't be developed. So there's these different concepts of what land is between the two groups, I think, and that can get a little bit confusing for one to understand. Especially with Hobart, because they sit on the tribe's entire treaty land, it encompasses the village - I get it, you know. They're trying to build more, it was predominantly residential, and they want to build more business development. I mean, I understand. But at the end of the day, it's not right, given the promises that were made to these tribes back in the day. And it needs to be honored and upheld. On another note, I will say, is that CERA, the Citizens for Equal Rights Alliance - their whole mission is to terminate tribes. That's their whole thing. They're like, "We're one citizen. Tribal nations shouldn't get these extra rights. We should all be treated the same." And so there's just...there's a lot of misunderstanding, I think, thrown back and forth on each side. How common are disputes like these between Native communities and their non-native neighbors today? I mean, this was happening at the very beginning of our country, it has not gone away, but are these kinds of disputes ramping up over the past few years? And how is the way that they're taking place changing? You know, that's a good question. Because, you know, with the research I've done, it's always been there. And I think that a lot of times, issues revolving Indian Country and the conflicts that they're fighting don't get as much attention. And so it's very new to a lot of people, and even to myself. Talking to some of the experts about the Walleye Wars that I described earlier, they're like, "Oh, yeah, it was like a really big thing." And maybe it's because it was in the '90s, and I was, like, 10 years old, but I don't remember [it]. I've never heard of it until I came here, and it was like, "Oh, my God. This stuff is still happening." But it's not as overtly displayed as it was before in the past. It's more through litigation, it seems. For example, with Elaine, they're always in a battle. Something that I found in the research as well is that all of this was kind of strategic. I mean, this is a note that I need to explore a little bit further into, but they knew that border towns and these issues were gonna be, perhaps, detrimental to tribal communities. Putting non-native residences bordering them or on them...like, border towns are an issue in Indian Country. And so yeah, people experience a lot of racism and different things like that. In your reporting, what do you see as the biggest issue facing Native communities right now? Oh, gosh. I'm so just embedded [in this film]. I mean, I even moved to Wisconsin, so I feel just so detached from everywhere else. When I think about it now, though, racism is a long, lingering thing. Just that misunderstanding, and not being able to see the issue from both sides - it causes problems for tribal communities. Like with the Oneida Nation, it's just misconception. I feels like [that's] the most detrimental issue that Indian Country is facing right now. You know, you have a misconception of Indian casinos bringing wealth to these tribal communities. And you have Indians relying on federal government services. It's just an entire, like, snowball effect. And so I think that's the main issue. You're just getting started in the next session of the Logan Nonfiction Program. What do you hope to get out of it? Yeah, I met with my mentor of the program yesterday, and even it was only an hour, I was able to download so much information from her about the industry and about how my film can be more impactful. I suppose, like giving creative feedback, constructive feedback - and that was just an hour. And so I'm very excited to go into the Logan Nonfiction Program, because we have workshops set up with different industry folks, and then we're able to go in and workshop our own projects as a cohort. And so that's what I'm excited for. I'm excited to build community, and learn more about the industry. I know it's gonna benefit Holder of the Sky and so that's something that I'm really excited for. Our next guests are using the Logan Nonfiction Program to develop their podcast, 50-Foot Woman. Jillian Farmer is an award-winning journalist and creative writer based in the southern coast of Oregan, and Cheryl Upshaw is the former managing editor of The Humboldt Sun, Lovelock Review-Miner and The Battle Mountain Bugle in Nevada. They met during a brief stint as coworkers in Oregon before the start of the coronavirus pandemic. With 50-Foot Woman, they hope to increase awareness of a number of rare conditions and diseases — starting with acromegaly, a pituitary disease in which the body produces too much growth hormone. Farmer herself was diagnosed with acromegaly in 2018. How did you find out you had acromegaly? Farmer: I was likely born with the disease and the brain tumor that comes with it. I wasn't diagnosed until I was 29 years old, and the diagnosis saved my life. [The tumor] was about a centimeter away from what they said would make me just fall over. The tumor was so large, it was sitting on my cerebral arteries, and it was sitting on my eyes, it was sitting on my eyes. It was actually starting to make me go blind. My symptoms were incredibly severe, but because the disease is such a slow grow - and I've said this on the podcast, anyone who listens when we're finished, will hear this - but I've described it as kind of being like a frog in a boiling pan. You don't notice, and you start to explain away a lot of the symptoms because doctors have been treating the symptoms as symptoms - as they come up. I was lucky enough to have a dermatologist - and everyone has a different diagnosis journey - but it's not everyday that a dermatologist gets to diagnose the brain tumor, and a very rare disease. But she saved my life. They were able to do brain surgery, and it was transsphenoidal surgery through my nose. The podcast, the first season goes through the emotional journey and the medical journey. We're going to be talking to medical professionals, and we're also talking with other patients and how they've experienced their medical journey, both through the U.S. healthcare system and the Canadian healthcare system. So we're going to have a juxtaposing analysis of both. Because this is not only a very rare disease, but it has no cure. Every patient, they could see the tumor grow back. And the difficult thing about acromegaly is every inch you give the disease you cannot get back. And so if your levels get out of control - like your growth hormone, or your IGF-1, which are the big two that they look at - if they get out of control, you know, for me last year, I had a herniated disc. I had a few other things happen. And now it's something I have to be careful about, you know, not happening again. If you don't mind my asking - I just want to make sure that I'm understanding things a little bit better. So let's go a little more into what the disease does in the body and how it works. Being a pituitary disease, it's all hormonal, right? Upshaw: Yeah. And this is going to be the like, simplest version of it, because I don't remember all of the specifics on the scientific end. But essentially, your pituitary gland releases growth hormone. And then as it passes through the liver, a secondary hormone called IGF-1 is then released. And that's just a normal thing that happens with everyone. There's a normal amount of IGF-1 in every person's body. But with a person who has acromegaly, the amount of growth hormone and IGF-1 in their body is quite a bit higher. Jillian mentions in our podcast that when she was diagnosed, the normal person's IGF-1 count would be around 200. And for her, it was 1600. So you know, eight times higher. Once you hit puberty, it stops [affecting] the long bones of your body and starts doing it to your face and to the soft tissues. One of the soft tissues that it can affect is your organs, so your heart can be very dramatically affected, and it can be fatal in that way. Farmer: And this disease has also been known to cause colon cancer and breast cancer as well. Because it's the pituitary, I mean, that is the master gland that affects your entire body. So if something goes wrong with it to this degree, it affects your entire body. After my diagnosis, my doctors put me through a battery of tests to see exactly how affected I was, and to see if there was anything else that needed emergency attention, like, you know, potential heart disease or an enlarged heart. And thankfully, that was not something I had to deal with - but other patients do. For my case, and for the case of many acromegaly patients, but not necessarily all, is the tumor itself can produce growth hormone, too. And so you've got this big mass in your brain producing even more growth hormone. And that's why it's so important for them to cut that out, as well as the size of the tumor. The emergent part of it is also getting your levels under control, so it stops affecting your body. You mentioned earlier that acromegaly is hard to diagnose because the symptoms can creep up on you. What are the early signs of acromegaly? Farmer: In children, I had gigantism as a child. But I'm only 6'1" - we will talk about why I am not taller on our podcast, it's very complicated - but in children, they grow very fast. For example, when I was in third grade, I was as tall if not a little taller than my teacher, who was about 5' tall. One thing I also had as a child, which is something that adults with acromegaly need to look for, if they're not diagnosed, are swollen hands. My family called them, like, fleshy hands. The soft tissues, they swell with this disease, and so your face can get really puffy, your body just gets really swollen. That's what led to my herniated disk last year. Another common one is your teeth will start to move. I had perfectly straight teeth, and they're crooked now. A lot of patients actually get a gap in their front teeth or their bottom teeth. Another common one is the jaw, it will make the growth plates in jaws lengthen, and that'll make the jaw protrude. Unfortunately, it does disfigure you, it does change your face. I remember looking in the mirror thinking, "You know, I don't look...I don't look the same." And as an adult, you don't see that often. You don't have that issue. Like my mom, she stopped me at one point, and she just kind of grabbed me and looked at me and said, "You look different. You look different." And so I mean, that's a symptom. But one of my common symptoms that I had early on was skin issues. I got really big cysts, and that's what eventually led me to be diagnosed by my dermatologist. And so you've decided to make this podcast on your story here. What are you learning from speaking with other patients and medical professionals? Farmer: Yeah, we've already been able to speak with a woman in the United States who has become a huge advocate for bringing awareness to the disease, and her name is Jill Cisco. Upshaw: Jill Cisco is a really fascinating person to talk to in that, in addition to being a patient, she spends a lot of time talking to both doctors and other patients. A lot of what she does is bringing people together to discuss the disease. And I think that's a big thing that we've kind of been learning: because it is so rare, finding a community of like minded people who are suffering the same things is really valuable, because no one else gets it. Farmer: I still haven't met an acromegaly patient except you know, through our support group on Facebook. And the woman we spoke with in Canada, she talks about this as well. When she was able to meet her first accurate patient, yeah, you meet people who who get it. And it's a difficult disease to understand. Most people can only identify it through thinking of celebrities that have it, such as Andre the Giant, and the actor who played Lurch. For a woman with this disease, you can't really look to a celebrity who has it. I went on a journey after being diagnosed with trying to find a woman with this disease - because a lot of the symptoms are not flattering. They are often called by the medical world as "course features." As a woman, I really wanted to talk with other women about this, and some other issues that I had to face, things that can be embarrassing. And finding that support group was invaluable. Not only that, but after I found that group, Jill actually pointed me to a women-only acro support group. And that provides a really safe space for women with this disease to talk about this disease and how it impacts some more embarrassing topics and relationships. And there's also a support group for men with this disease to provide them a safe space to do the same. How are you doing now? Farmer: I am doing a lot better now. Of course, there are some things that the disease had done to me back in 2018, and up to 2018, that we're still dealing with. Like issues with my jaw. I was told recently that I've got arthritis of the jaw, and it's been giving me migraines, so they're trying to figure out what to do. I'm on treatment, and I will be on treatment for the rest of my life, to keep it under control. That is OK, like, you get used to it. And you're able to function a normal life and have like a normal lifespan - so long as the disease is kept under control. But right now, I am probably the healthiest I've been. I think a good scope of when I say that is I've had one doctor say to me, because I was likely born with a tumor, I don't even know what being healthy feels like. So for me to say I feel good? Like, yes, I do feel good. For a normal person, I don't know what that would look like. But for me, I am doing very well right now. Upshaw: And to that point, part of the reason we want to do this and help create awareness around acromegaly, and create awareness around the U.S. healthcare system, is despite the fact that that tumor is gone, she still has symptoms, she still needs care. And the U.S. healthcare system, and insurance companies in particular, have made it really difficult for her to receive that care. That actually does lead into one of my next questions. What does that treatment and monitoring look like, and as you're getting treatment and speaking with others, what are some of the differences you're noticing between having to navigate that in the U.S. versus in other countries? Farmer: One of the big ones is access to treatment. Some of these treatments are chemotherapies that treat you know, carcinoid tumors of the small intestine, for example. I'm on one of those, on a low dose. That treatment I get every six weeks. And that treatment, last I heard, was about $37,000 a dose. Last year, it was a bumpy journey keeping insurance due to many different reasons, and getting consistent treatment was difficult. When I got a steady insurance and things were approved, had to get this treatment through a specialty pharmacy, because I live remotely. And that's something we discuss also in the podcast, is how living remote can affect treatment as well. But dealing with a specialty pharmacy, and trying to get the first order, that copay was, I believe, about $3,000. That's a copay I would have had to pay every dose. They didn't ask my financial situation, they just said I can't afford it unless [I] have copay assistance. And to somebody who has an incurable, very rare disease, that was devastating. My husband and I had to have a very serious conversation if I could even get treatment, and what that could mean. Because in past experience, if I don't have treatment, say for two months, my levels could get out of control. And who knows what could happen. It's kind of like a Russian roulette game, you don't know what the disease will do next to the body and how it can end you up in the ER, or give you something else you can't roll back, something else that will then have to be addressed by specialists. And so thankfully, my doctors, though, are very aware of all of this. And they coordinated with a copay assistance program that they do for many, if not all, of the acro patients that they treat. And that has been taken care of. Without that copay assistance, I would not be able to afford my treatment. As it is, I meet my out-of-pocket max deductible every year, usually in January. But then in comparison, Cheryl, if you want to tell her about what we've learned from who we interviewed in Canada? Upshaw: Yeah, absolutely. So the woman that we spoke to in Canada, one of the things that she told us was, and it kind of blew my mind - she has a nurse that just drops by her house, I think it's once a week to give her her treatment. That's not an additional cost for her. It's just something that's provided, because she also lives remotely. So there's that. And it's not that Canadian healthcare is perfect, as she explained to us. It's not that she doesn't have to pay anything, but it's not as devastating to her. No one would ever say to her, "Give us $37,000 per month, or per six weeks, to get care." Farmer: The $3,000 copay per dose. That was not something that she faced either. Upshaw: No, she didn't have to worry about that. There is private insurance in Canada, there are things that she does have to worry about and work with. But basically, they work with the drug companies directly to make it a lot more affordable. And some of the patients that she's worked with, they don't have to pay anything, which is not something that we're hearing from American patients. Farmer: No, and it's very interesting. Like in the support group, a lot of patients in the United States go there seeking advice on how to deal with insurance or other issues caused by the American healthcare system. And patients internationally express amazement sometimes, because they don't face the same issues. Well, I feel like there's so many other things that I could ask, but we are running a little bit low on time. So I'm just going to have one more question for you. You're wrapping up your time with the Logan Nonfiction Program. How has that experience been? Farmer: It's been a very fun, very intense fellowship. And working with Cheryl has, I mean, I wouldn't have the interest in telling this story alone. It's a very difficult story, and to have a partner help navigate some of these more difficult conversations of, you know, facing death, dealing and thinking of death as an acro patient, and dealing with the potential hereditary aspect of this...And raising awareness for a disease people don't know about, that people in the medical world are very interested in also learning more about. I have a great partner in doing this. Hopefully, our goal is it's going to make an impact. Thank you for listening to 51%. 51% is a national production of WAMC Northeast Public Radio.

Film noir vibes at times. Murder subplot. Portrayal of female stereotypes (emotional, irrational, mental, sex driven, jewelry obsessed) all to make Nancy's ultimate revenge that much more satisfying when she defies the expectations of the male gaze. THE BAD Sense of scale is all over the place. Sometimes 50 feet seems too tall or too short. Idk. Ending is supes abrupt and leaves no sense of true resolution. If you don't prescribe to the "feminist-subversion-of-female-stereotypes" theory of Nancy's world, then it's difficult to look past the misogyny of the story. Personally, considering how much Nancy fights to maintain her position and property in this terrible situation, I'm led to believe in the female empowerment angle. THE DOWNRIGHT CAMPY I've never seen paper-mache used in a giant monster movie before. Huh. . . . A lot of great moments and despite the production flaws, stands the test of time thanks to its newfound analysis as a tale of female empowerment. Considering the decade it was made, such stories are always welcomed. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/camp-kaiju/support

This time, we're taking a look at the giant monster throwback film Eight Legged Freaks and along the way we'll ask, why was there a time where David Arquette was a leading man in Hollywood, why don't more citizens have guns in rural Arizona, is this movie nightmare fuel or just plain parody and how can improvising lead to a pretty decent movie title? Let's dive in…. Cast & Crew Directed by Ellory Elkayem: The New Zealand born director was chosen by the producers to adapt a full-length version of a short film he had directed titled Larger than Life which centered around a giant man eating spider. He has since directed several direct-to-video films including a sequel to the comedy Without a Paddle. Starring David Arquette as Chris McCormick: Arquette had developed a reputation for playing goofy comedic characters following appearances on Friends as well as the character Dewey in the Scream Kari Wuhrer as Samantha Parker: Wuhrer's big break came on the MTV show Remote Control and had appeared in films like Thinner and Anaconda Scarlett Johansson as Ashley Parker: While she's now known as one of the highest paid actresses in Hollywood, Johansson had humble beginnings but would later break through the following year with performances in Lost in Translation and The Girl with the Pearl Earring Also Starring: Scott Terra as Mike Parker Doug E. Doug as Harlan Griffith Rick Overton as Pete Willis Leon Rippy as Wade Jay Arlen Jones as Leon Eileen Ryan as Gladys Riley Smith as Randy Matt Czuchry as Bret A Brief History of Giant Monster Films Beginning with the Godzilla films, the popularity of giant monster (usually giant insect) films exploded in the United States. The Godzilla films were originally created as a warning for the unknown effects of radiation following the numerous atomic tests conducted in the Pacific during the late 1940's and 1950's. There were also concerns as the United States and the Soviet Union entered the Cold War and nuclear destruction was at the forefront of the world's population. This international strife made a rich ground for Hollywood to mine as films like The Beast from 20,000 Fathoms, Them, Attack of the 50 Foot Woman, Attack of the Crab Monsters and The Blob all become drive thru cinema fodder for the decade of the 1950's. These films are basic to say the least. Similar to how studio's would make westerns in the 30's and 40's, the plots of these films usually involved some sort of radiation or chemical leak that affects local wildlife and transforms it into a giant monster that wreaks havoc on a small town, kills some of the local populace until the military arrives to kill the creature or some smart scientist who happens to be nearby finds a way to destroy the creature or the film would substitute giant local wildlife for a giant alien and the rest of the plot would remain the same. Obviously, this formula became dated and soon after the 50's were over, these films quickly fell out of the style and television was quickly becoming the new desired media in Hollywood. The giant monster or kaiju genre has experienced a resurgence in recent years following films like Pacific Rim (which we have recently covered on Force Fed Sci-Fi) as well as Godzilla and its subsequent sequels such as Godzilla: King of the Monsters (which we covered in 2019) and Godzilla vs Kong (which will be covered in a future Bite Sized episode). It's unclear what the genre will be like in the future but it is exciting to see great films being released with such a reverence for the genre. David Arquette as a Leading Man? While hard to believe now, David Arquette was a prolific actor in the late 90's and early 2000's. Besides appearing in the films previo usly mentioned, he had also starred in Airheads, Never Been Kissed, 3000 Miles to Graceland and The Grey Zone but as Sean and Chris note during the episode, it's hard to buy into him as a leading man that's meant to...

In this episode, we discuss sideways Who and how this story type was not too common in the classic Who era, but has come into its own with the show's revival and is, perhaps, in its golden age under Chibnall's tenure as showrunner. Opening music is "Univers Sideral" composed by Paul Bonneau and closing music is the main title theme for the "Attack of the 50 Foot Woman" composed by Ronald Stein. We recorded this episode on 3 May 2020.

Macrophilia is a surprisingly popular fetish involving sexual fantasies about giants — specifically, giant women. Being at the mercy of giants, or being coddled or crushed by them are staples of the community, but size change motifs also are common. Stories and media about giants (like the 1958 horror B-movie Attack of the 50 Foot Woman) or size change (1989's Honey, I Shrunk the Kids) have become touch points for the macrophilia community, though many have also taken to making their own media and pornography using visual effects. Alli and Jen talk with Pete, the webmaster of Giantess City, one of the largest online content and community hubs for macrophiles.

Episode 141 of the Jason & Scot show was recorded on Tuesday, August 7th from the eTail East tradeshow in Boston. http://jasonandscot.com Join your hosts Jason "Retailgeek" Goldberg, SVP Commerce & Content at SapientRazorfish, and Scot Wingo, Founder and Executive Chairman of Channel Advisor as they discuss the latest news and trends in the world of e-commerce and digital shopper marketing. Transcript Jason: [0:25] Welcome to the Jason and Scott show this episode is being recorded live at the e'tae least trade show in Sunny Boston on Tuesday August 7th I'm your host Jason retailgeek Goldberg unfortunately Scott had a personal conflict and wasn't able to make this show so you guys are stuck with just me but we have some great guess this week and first up we are excited to have dr. Laura's mark delete from cooked tail on the show or as is head of Behavioral research cook tail and she's going to share some fascinating psychological research that that she's been conducting about online Shoppers and their behaviors welcome to the show with us. Liraz: [1:10] Thank you I'm very blessed to be here. Jason: [1:12] The president Charlie R's one thing I was like to do to get things started on the show is just for a little bit of background about the guest so maybe you could take just a minute and tell us how you came into the doesn't seem like online marketing is necessary the first place you think of her psychology. Liraz: [1:29] So interesting the fact that there is no such a degree in web sites out or web psychology or digital say Call of Duty and people keep coming to me and ask, how can I become a psychologist and there is no one answer so for me I have a PhD in Psychology. Specialize in decision-making processes and cognition also Game Theory and over the past 5 years I've been utilizing model from cognitive psychology neuropsychology and behavioral economics how we can understand and identify customers behavior and did you deter work because we know that there is a slight difference and you don't like it's not so slide, there are differences between how people behave online and in the physical world and they are communicating frankly even their personality trait. James like if someone is an extrovert become an introvert and vice versa so I think there is a huge need to understand how people behave in those Windows media and those Arenas so a disability. Jason: [2:37] That's very cool and I'm excited to dig into it before we go too deep maybe we should tell our listeners just a little bit about cooked tail for anyone that's not for me. Liraz: [2:45] Sure she looks so cute Bella is an experience analytics company so what we do is that we, how to analyze and understand the customers Behavior the motivation for example what makes them motivate them to purchase certain products and why they would has it, before clicking on a call to action their Journey at the differences we can have different Behavior patterns we're talking about, thousands of visitors all together so we can take a view of individual visitor of thousands of visitors all together and this is how we can have heat inside into what's going on in your mind before deciding to purchase or to leave website or what is there Experian. Jason: [3:32] Wonderful in the way I sort of think of it there's lots of tools out there that I'll call Page analytics tools that sort of keep track of how I consumer moves from page to page and what unique about could tell as in my mind you were one of the very first tools that were what I'll call on page Analytics and you could actually see all the micro behaviors of the consumer wow they're spending time on a page so are they you know are they scrolling are they hovering I mean not I know there's a small part of it but like. Gray superficially I think people always think about the heat maps and understanding where like the real fold is on the page how far down is the consumer really going. Liraz: [4:10] Exactly so there is a common mistake that we are a heat map company goes much deeper than heatmap so if you think about it I can understand how you feel I can understand what you are going to remember from The Experience only based on how you interacted with the different pages I can under, if you're going through shift from positive to negative negative to positive and I can take, into consideration all your behaviors and actually see who you are or your personality traits are you crying to mine said so there is a whole lot of things we can detect only based on your micro-level behavior. Jason: [4:49] I feel like I'm never going shopping again I love online shopping and now I'm terrified that all my deepest secrets are going to be revealed by my my my mouse behavior. Liraz: [4:58] It's so now it's all I have. Jason: [4:59] Just made me very self-conscious. Liraz: [5:02] I have actually I can use it up for you because I don't care where you are I mean I care a lot about you. Like from we can we are not going to save the information about you the gender only based on what you doing what you did online so that's it and it means that I don't know who you are I can only see what you're doing online. Jason: [5:26] And that is it that is another interesting thing like a lot of times when people think about personalization or even, I I care more about relevancy necessary then personalization they think about like storing and collecting data and knowing who is user is individually and accumulating more insight that you can somehow use to change the experience one of the things that's that's cool about this field is you can use kind of contextual signals in a single session so I can be entirely Anonymous Shopper or shopper you've never before and you can instantly start getting some signals you can use to make the experience more relevant for her. Liraz: [6:03] Exactly exactly so is I look at it ice I've used the language model meaning that at the bottom of the mother we have the letters of course so these are like. Peaks and espola to have hers and then you go one level up and then we can talk about words for example if you click and butt before you click to hezzy. So I will call it hesitation are you at school really fast or really slow and then at the app we have the mindset for example if you are gorgeous. So I would see a direct action and then click so meaning that you know exactly what you're looking for and how to accomplish. On the website so I can actually understand your mindset if your focus if you're frustrated so this is like the the sentences in Thai language. Jason: [6:51] Very cool and it's this is maybe a silly analogy but the the expanse I feel like Moe's online consumers have had that makes this sort of apparent is the the little button I am not a robot. Right and everything goes well that's stupid like if I were a robot I would be able to quit that. I am in what what you're not realizing is that that which it is watching how you move your mouse, the button and the the unique way that a human being moves the mouse is different than the perfectly linear way and I'll order them is likely to do a. Liraz: [7:26] This is the magic word actually the house because actually my whole research is focus on the how customers behave and not what you're doing and also you know there are many many companies today. Dad or like your your detect that you use bad. I think that it doesn't matter because you know 70% of our day-to-day interactions are actually based on nonverbal signals meaning. Hope you're saying to one another so I can ask you if you like to come over and you will say yes because you are being polite but from the way you say from how you say I can infer that you really don't like to come over so it's about our body gestures and her facial expression when we're talking about the physical world but when were talking about the online it is also about the how is that it as you described right now. Jason: [8:14] Yeah it's super exciting let's jump right into it now you've done for the three big areas of research and I want at least be able to touch on all of the the first one is when we talk turn it down on the show we talk about this thing we call the mobile Gap right and in general you got all the traffic on the web is predominantly moving to mobile devices but if you're an e-commerce site people don't tend to shop as frequently and successfully on mobile devices that used to on desktop so you so that's a scary Trend and we're always talking about how sides can do better what we can fix in the customer experience and you know frankly you have a chance to settle up our way in on his dispute Scott and I always have without putting words in Scott's mouth while he's not here but he's not here so I might as well. He thinks some of that Gap is in friends and that it just harder to shop on mobile devices in the screens last. Liraz: [9:08] I would like technical issues. Jason: [9:10] Yeah not all of it I don't think you would say but I think he would you know just say hey it's West convenient and and I argue that a lot of it is inferior experiences and execution that as we get better we can remediate and and that we should expect to see. The mobile Gap certain Arab so I love to hear your perspective on that and tell us tell us a little bit about the study and what you learned. Liraz: [9:36] So yeah I'm sorry Scott but I will have to go with you or with your assumptions about it, if I say we we are calling it The Mobile man mindset meaning that I think exactly as you described we have a different mindset as we go on mobile and if you think about it it is done unconsciously it start with her body posture meaning that when you when you browse. Add to desktop when you add to your table to your straight up so he's actually affect who you are what you think what you do and when we on our mobile device where usually on the go and for us I would mobile we have an association between our Mobile in our social social life and we are. Conscious about about what we do and that is why we like to buy more precious thing on the mobile and you know our mobile is like an extension of our body so we treated completely differently you know. I thought that was conducted about people how they treat their mobile they found it if I will give you my mobile people we always start being jealous at you for touching my mobile if they make us feel more emotional about her mobile so also it from wanting that we have discovered is the three of you in completely different types of corn. [11:04] Lake Murray Sports Bar social media on our mobile Facebook and Instagram for for Generation Z and the desktop so. Most of us will also feel most secure like to complete the purchase so like there is a processing cycle you start with your mobile your brows for things and you landed at your desk but they also because we feel more emotional. When we are holding our mobile so we will be more people's purchaser meaning we we are not going to think about it too much we're not going to use a rational system because you know we have two different systems operating in or my system 1 system too so system to is the rational system. [11:50] And 61 is the emotional it is more at o matic so it is based on war base you don't. Too much so this is exactly how you behave on your mobile you don't, too much you play out of habit so this is a habit forming most of the mobile website or the mobile apps these are habit-forming apps and when you are like you lost yourself you don't think too much so that is why we will buy more I will be engaging more impulse purchase and for the desktop we are more self-aware and we are price-conscious and the reason address, because you have this big screen so so are exactly is called said so because you have this big screen this is an illusion that you can see clearly you can see all the details so I'll for some people most for the elderly guys out if they feel like they feel more safe to purchase order this. Jason: [12:48] Very cool and so and I imagine it's all somewhat relative like so for example I always talk about how in ux design Everyone likes to, to act very rational right and you know my promise is the overwhelming majority of all purchase decisions are made with that fast system they're made with the irrationals not that I work the subconscious portion of our brain and and so what you're saying is on the mobile device it's even more so. Into one of my takeaways from that is what you there's been this big Trend and they slightly misused word but we'll talk responsive-design like one one experience and it's just kind of fluid in a liquid so it can, Flex to fit a big desktop screen or small Mobile screen and well that's certainly better than have any experience that doesn't fit the screen it's probably not the optimal experience because your point, there there could be more emotional triggers that I want to deliver to someone on that mobile device and there might be more. Rational objective information that I want to deliver to that. Liraz: [13:56] Yeah definitely that's what I keep saying to our client it's not about the designer design shouldn't be different what you'd be different is the content. Contact because on the mobile we are on the ghost so mostly we are not, to be interested in all the details and information we want to to see images we want to be to have an access to the information and we want the more emotional con. Like like for example if you're talking about our social media so we want to be connected to our social media we want to know what my friend bought before me but on the desktop this is completely different on the desktop you want to review all the details, very carefully we want to have access to two Idol reviews so yeah it's not about the design it's about the content to be completely different and it should feed our minds at her mobile or desktop. Jason: [14:49] Yeah that's pretty cool until I think of that is sort of like on the desktop I might want a deep dive into all the reviews in the numerical rating. On the mobile I want to see a picture of the person from my social network that I know that that bought this product and had a good outcome yeah that's that's super interesting and exciting part of me it's sad because I feel like most designers work on these super expensive giant monitors and if anything they they did say their best most emotional visual experience is. For the big screen and then when they say hey what's the mobile experience they're like oh it's much smaller I'm just going to give him a thumbnail and give him. Attacks and and what you're funny cuz that's exactly opposite of the. Contacts to the user very interesting I can talk about mobile with you all day but I'm super interested to Diamond to the the next two studies and the next one that we were talking about is this. I think it's a huge opportunity for people to improve their customer experience it's shopping stress. Liraz: [15:56] Exactly so you know there are different tips to the shopping stress there different finding so first we know that for some of us, is like an addiction it's like you like to go shopping the same as you like to smoke it's relaxing and fun and you get to forget about yourself and just be like. When you play a mobile repair like mobile game so for some people it is exactly the same mostly women but. [16:25] I also some men that like to shop ever. Although we know that is supposed to be fun and enjoyable it can be all so it can also be stressful especially when we're talking about the checkout process and especially for men because what we have found that you that we can we have. [16:44] Different mindset for men and for women I think the differences between how men shop and how woman chokes is extremely important here. Because we said that men they want to find what they want to go shopping they know what they want. Ahead of time and they want to find it as quickly as possible looking for similarly related items and they are a price conscious and it's not about the fun it's not about the pleasure fat woman it's not about the end result so we found it sometime woman will enjoy the process itself they derive pleasure from The Experience they say calf and sensory stimulation when they are shopping so it's all about applying the associative thinking so they can start with I don't know why I baby back in skin care and they will find out go find himself they're going shopping for bags for example, so it's all about the pleasure in the fan and the association so you can see why it is less stressful for women if you are going to focus on the experience itself but for men if you are looking for something and you cannot find it especially play in the holiday season or if you really need something so then it become pretty stressful. Jason: [18:00] And it is interesting to me I often feel like the best opportunities to improve experiences and in increase conversion is shockingly sometimes it lasts about. More tools for task completion in more about this stress avoidance that like the low-hanging fruit is usually what can I take. Out of the experience that's causing the stressors and releasing like all those hormones into the bot like it's it's a. Liraz: [18:30] Espressos yeah exactly because what we see is the people the designer for example about the customer State of Mind what do you need like what would I need to find out they don't think about the actual experience so let me give you one example we found that the most stressful thing for some people is that they are entering a voucher or there is a voucher and they don't have it so they keep comparing himself to the other people because we are all engaging social comparison so oh my God. I could have this item in the lower price and I can't have it even if it is even if it is not so we need to think about this ecology over customers because those types of things they are what make them stressed. Jason: [19:22] Yes and that that particular use cases a huge pet peeve because not only is it it hideous it's at the exact wrong point it's at the very end of that purchase. They're 99% of the way through and you just said a new anchor change their pricing perception and made them feel like they're stupid if they make this purchase. Without a and none of us none of us like to feel that way another one that I talk a lot about is just the underlying Speed and Performance of the the site and it's shocking to me how much stress it induces just when the page loads slow or a button someone clicks. Liraz: [20:01] Because you feel wasn't what went wrong and oh my God what about my money because whenever it comes to your money because if you think about it. Long I mean of course we have the internet for many years now but still like the money is going somewhere we cannot see it's not like we can feel the actual money so everything about what's going on with the transaction can make a really really stressful even if you just like a slight error and everything because and then even if it was a slight error and everything comes back to normal afterwards we will still. Have a negative feeling about experience this is the. Jason: [20:42] Yeah that memory effect from that so there's a steady out and I'm terrified some was going to do bunk this study because it's one of my favorite studies in the space but they weren't they were studying, the the level of stress induced meant from different experiences and the Baseline was watching a horror movie and and they actually found that like, the average subject was releasing more cortisol and having you no more of a stress reaction to a slow mobile page. And watching a horror movie and I think that's hysterical like the most talented creative people in the world that are intentionally trying to stress you out. Just having a slow web page can accomplish the same experience on the part of the user. Liraz: [21:28] Exactly and you know what's the interest another interesting finding was that when I talkin about the holiday season so when you need. To buy to buy something you will feel much more stressful and then we can see more at disoriented behavior and because when we shop about a stand when any told about the van and we don't have a certain purpose purchasing then it could be relaxing and fun and we can avoid everything else in the neighborhood but when we need to do something it becomes press for, and we need to pay it. Jason: [22:00] And again like when you're getting practical advice to people and you're saying like so maybe that that best experience during a particularly task-oriented season like like a holiday season or your big annual sale needs to be different than the browsing experience that. Yeah any other like cheap pieces of advice that you give clients based on the emotion research. Liraz: [22:24] Yeah based on day is stress research so we know that we were actually analyze how men and women shop and we found that men that don't like the broad selection and Foot Woman if they don't have the road selection it's like they did in the if for example I'm going to buy seven jeans and I find exactly what I wanted like the exact same size as the exact course I will feel a frustrated because. It so if it's all about the shopping I like to have a road selection it's part of the fun to try it out in the brake and rotors service also when I talkin about the online experiences we need to have the accessories and we need to have a broad selection and we need something that fits the hours to see a patient so are we really need to create a different experience for men. Jason: [23:14] That that's super interesting and like so there's this a book in a principle that's out there in that a lot of women are familiar with the Paradox of choice right I think Dan ariely. Yeah and. Really smart guy lots of super interesting insides I feel like that particular inside is now. It has been difficult to repeat like that the whole notion that that the original test for westerners it maybe don't know is you bring a shopper to a Shelf with a bunch of jellies on it and if there's more. Liraz: [23:52] 54 vs 6 the word to two flavors are like they were trying to have the septic station of gems so in the grocery store that was at 21st flavors of jam and only six people of course came to the 24 but when I talking about how many purchase. Purchase three times more only six flavors. Jason: [24:18] Which is fascinating right inside the original inside there was. Liraz: [24:22] But this is Walden Diner really this is what she not anger but yeah he's talking about yourself. Jason: [24:27] Yeah he is talking about her study and he made it very popular by writing a consumer book and any is very approachable and joy is his reading quite a bit but. The takeaway from there was like oh my gosh Apple they have 47 different kinds of laptops and when Steve Jobs made them normalize it down to three laptops it reduce a lot of shopping stress and did all these things and and they sold a lot more and so they were suddenly this huge Trend towards curation. And I think what we've seen in further studies is there are context in which, that that affect is very real. Your point you know from the differences between men and women. Liraz: [25:08] Exactly depends but not for everyone. Jason: [25:10] Text where it's actually a mistake to assume that curation is. Liraz: [25:15] So it's all about Sigmund Tatian is all about I mean when I talk about personalization what is prisonization it's actually the realization that we have different types of customers so we have to provide them with different types of experiences and you know the two words that I hate the most in all these, online arena is. What are best practices we have a common basis for everyone we don't we don't we need to treat everyone as an individual and on state taste and this is the opposite of press. Jason: [25:54] Yeah but the actual technical definition of best practices is whatever I say. I'm totally teasing yeah but you're course right right in and it's I mean that's a cognitive bias to write like the clients are overwhelmed with all these decisions that they have to make and sometimes it just easier to Advocate some of these decisions and say hey what have people done before. And had a good outcome and what they don't understand is there's an unlimited number of variables that affected that outcome that are not the same. Liraz: [26:27] Sometimes you're not aware of all these variables. Jason: [26:29] Can't be in many cases it's it's it's fascinating but still for my clients just feel free to just take my advice. And is my clients hopefully no I don't recommend that either right like it's interesting to have hypothesis is but like it's it's really good to test those and pierpoint the old model of one-size-fits-all something and then you know that's why I like frankly we had all this a b testing and multivariate testing in the world for a long time and there's this interesting phenomenon. Conversions no better than it was 10 years ago everything regresses to the mean in mini case. And part of it's because the the experience that succeeded for Shopper age does not succeed for sure. Liraz: [27:16] And it's not only that because if you actually mentioned maybe says there is not a problem with a B test because when I talk to designers or two product analyst and they're trying out some tests they don't really have the notion. Maybe like the evidence we should maybe three work maybe it's not but it's not based on a committee the Samsung it's not based on psychological research and at the end of the day we are dealing with human being so it's not about okay so I have an idea let's try that it's about how people will behave in about reading the secret vehicle research and I know that you don't have time for this but it will at the end of the day of the long run we save you so much. Jason: [27:56] Yeah and it and then side note because most people are using his test to validate a preference rather than actually learn permit test like they're all so they're there generally the math is horribly flawed and people don't don't use proper sample sizes in the Simpson but we don't have time to talk about that you have a third study which I've only recently just wondering about an emotion so tell us about that. Liraz: [28:22] Right so we know that for example in the reported first a reason to release day Road brands that want to break away from the pack should focus on emotions, and you know what the part is I like the most is how an experience makes customer feel is a big influence on the loyalty to abandon Effectiveness series of using nearly every industry. And you know what we know it's not only Foster over the past five years we have been hearing about the significant fall off emotions and driving engagement and experience and brand awareness organization. No one really knows and no one really tells you how what is the mechanism behind it you know what's the relationship between emotions and experiences and how emotions can be utilized to drive digital experiences so this is exactly what we said to do and what you need to ask is how our brain, memorizes daily experiences and what do we need to be discussing his emotion emotion as a gateway to our memory. [29:23] Let me check with you a personal storage is to demonstrate it so it was a few minutes ago we were sitting in your family after Friday family dinner we were sitting in the living room and then my oldest daughter she turns to me and asked how we met her daddy so I told her the story I told her that I went because of my friends to a dance club and as we entered the club I saw him standing there the battery cover. And he was so good looking and then we went to the dance floor started dancing and after a few flat it looks he came over cancel my friend and ask if he can see me away from them. [29:57] And this is how we talk again and he is there sitting there listening to me telling the story and says oh my God liraz it was nothing like. [30:05] And for a minute there I was doing. But you wasn't eating and you know today after starting the dynamic nature of our memory I know that you wasn't kidding because our memory is greatly influenced by. Our recurrent mindset and our private stations in our emotions of course and that is why and this is very important lesson it doesn't matter what we need happened to the digital experience what matters is what we're going to remember from The Experience right so in order to study emotions in the digital world we have developed this mother According to which the emotions evoked are the result of our private stations and a recurrent mindset. [30:48] And by private spectation I mean the actual wrong. Interacting with digital work we have developmental model that guide our XP patient is to what to expect from different online experiences and what do I mean by mental model for example you are going to rest. [31:05] You know how to behave you know this need to wait for the hostess first date you know how to behave so we have mental after interacting with him so he's the actual interaction play online interactions meets our expectation it is considered to be an an event and no emotions are involved so for example if I want to buy a certain the product this is what I expected, and that's it but if the actual interaction at least below our expectation meaning that is -2 what we expected then the experience would be associated with a negative emotion however if their experience rises above our expectations then we can do, talk about Peak experiences and delight and then the experience will be associated with a positive emotion so it is extremely important to understand our products spectation in just to give you an example, there's something that we need to understand about our brain a brain did not develop as fast as our technology, in one of the basic human needs is the traffic control and the response to the loss of control is the same and it doesn't matter. [32:20] If you find the jungle fighting for a life if we are trying to possibly the street or if we are on stage in front of a big crowd so recently we have one of our clients music station do analyze the customers behavior on the pages and they were trying to push video content by having them load automatically. [32:36] On your pages so what me so when we observe the behavior is it whenever the customer and to the website and counted the video immediately clicked on the pause button. [32:46] 85% of the customers think I called you the video and click on the start button because clicking on the pulse by then put the control back into their own hands so it's not about the video was click and well-designed it's not about the video it's about our private station and our emotion and you know different emotions affect. Whole different functions today influence information processing in-memory in different ways and it is extremely important to understand it. Jason: [33:16] Andrew thinks of that autoplay video took the control away from me my expectation was birth control so there was this negative Delta of the experience versus my expectation and the. The further the Delta is from the the expectation positive or negative the more likely that emotion is to be preserved in our memory. Liraz: [33:42] I need it depends because if you think about it from ever and evolutionary. Negative experiences are quicker and more likely to form long lasting memories because. It is much more valuable to hold on to those negative experiences and there is something that we need to know about our brains memory system Brands memory system work something like a pen in and out. So for a brief time before the ink dries it's possible to smell what's written. Did the memories Consolidated it changes very little so you need to be self-aware about the emotions that are revoked in your websites and products. Jason: [34:21] Yeah and that's exactly what happened to you and your husband at your meeting right is you you both had this expectation and smudge the memory. The time and now they're heavily imprinted years later and I'm sure your memory was the accurate one by the. The another thing that's odd about that emotional memory that I've heard and tell me if I have this wrong but I've heard that sequence can also have some impact so we've always had this this piece of common advice that like the first and last experience in a a path are more likely to be imprinted in that memory than some of the inner. Yeah okay. Liraz: [34:57] So for example if you go on vacation so when let's say that you are visiting to different states so the shift. Between when you move from one state to another then you're going to print it as well. And I you know the continent has a really great analogy about emotion he says that in one of his letter in the Q&A session there was a man and the man says that he has been listening to Symphony and it was absolutely a glorious music I need the very end of the recording there was a dreadful stretching song, and any of the really quite emotionally it's ruined all experience for me I think about it it hasn't had to experience it had 20 minutes of Glorious music. Accounted for nothing because he was left with a memory the memory was ruined and the memory was hold your garden. Jason: [35:49] Yep and so I think there's even things like I have a three-year-old at home and you know going to the doctor or stressful and they give you all these immunization shots and now they like they give you a dose of sugar. At the end of the shots and I I presume that part of that is so that like the last. Liraz: [36:07] Find Alex. Jason: [36:08] Final experience that kid has is like a nice nice dose of Sugar Rush which I feel like every time I go shopping if someone would just give me a hit of caffeine at the end I feel like that would be a really smart. That's why I think it's interesting cuz I talked with plants a lot about. The the role of brand and Tumi brand works both ways there's a psychologist at Stanford Professor Samsung that does. Is a principle called the absolute value and essentially it's hey brand has often been a surrogate for Quality when we can't judge the quality of products we associate quality with the familiar brand but they didn't the modern world it's much easier to judge, the true quality of products we have access to all this information at our fingertips and in an environment where it's easy to get objective information. Brand becomes less important as a surrogate for Quality Inn. Liraz: [37:06] Yeah I think that it's not about the fact that Brands become less important it's about that people. Meaning of the growing flag of information goods and services the emerging middle in our memory and we cannot separate one brand from another and that is why, when our brain needs to choose a product for my multi to the product that are more that's the same characteristics the deciding factor will always be the emotions that are, so deciding to buy a certain brand has nothing to do with the features of and benefit of that product, think about your own smartphone how many of you can celebrate yours on the differences between your smartphone to the competition maybe if you like, most of us choose based on emotions that are attached to that bread so if there is an association between dead product in a positive emotion you think about the benefit you. You feel and you know Gladwell wrote in his book playing about the emotional shortcut hero they're the only way that you meant being could have ever survived the species for as long as we have, is that we have developed another kind of decision-making apparatus that is capable of making very quick judgment based on very little information, so if you have these emotional shortcut you don't need to think you just need to feel. Jason: [38:25] Yeah exactly and that's always liked it when I do that to Value thing to a very famous brand they're always just hard in like oh my my friends is valuable in and then that's my Counterpoint no brand still has super important roles it's it's a it's a shortcut to these emotions. Liraz: [38:42] Play The Association. Jason: [38:44] I can be permanently associated with these emotions now the one downside of that is the relative to expectations. The expectations. Go up with that brand and then it it becomes increasingly difficult for Apple which is already beloved if they make a product that like disappoints customers in anyway it's a negative association versus. Yeah Samsung where we're at. Liraz: [39:12] Yeah I wouldn't expect too much and yeah and it is very easy to disappoint our customers I think this is the most easiest thing in the world. Jason: [39:21] And in you mention that like you know most of us like pick our phone and couldn't, describe why we we pick it up I would even argue it's worst most people will try to describe it the rationalize it. And not even realize that actually those rational reasons you just ate it had nothing to do. With why you until I always like on the internet where this big Echo chamber and you know you follow my Twitter feed and you'll see thousands of studies and all these studies are like surveys of stated preferences and I hate those two studies because again those are consumers that are rationalizing why they did something instead of observed study. Liraz: [39:59] Yeah we keep seeing these in psychological studies there is a God. People weekly inhabited really feel and you know what it's not because you're lying to you. Not lying it's because we just don't have it true regarding what motivates our behavior and there is a great experiment that was recently conducted the demonstrated so customers brainware scan using fmri device. And this technique measure changes in blood flow to correspond to increase and decrease in mental activity and the interesting finding all that customers were showing different products is part of the go-to-market strategy of these brother and interesting be if customer declares that is going to purchase a certain product but it was not an increase in the emotional brain Terraria those products usually felt, so it's not about asking people it's about trying to find out a different measurement to understand how they felt. Jason: [40:52] Very cool and that's actually going to be a great place to leave it because it's happening again we've used up all our a lot of time. And I know it it it goes too fast and I could deep-diving a bunch of these topics with you would be be fascinating but it wouldn't want to continue the conversation or they have further questions we have a Facebook page they're welcome to go to Facebook and post questions and I'll be happy to forward them to you. Liraz: [41:16] Always would be great. Jason: [41:17] We we can continue. The Dying Light there is listeners want to get in touch with you directly are you like is there a you have a preferred like you are you active on Twitter or do you. Liraz: [41:28] Sure on Twitter on LinkedIn and of course if they are going to post question to the Facebook I will be more than happy to address the person.

And, per usual, we run the gamut from a 1950's sci-fi classic(?) mostly due to the poster, two Bollywood movies starring Aamir Khan, a Dreamworks animated movie (also with a giant woman), a chilling new horror film set in merry old 17th century New England, and The classic Humphrey Bogart detective picture that set his career for years to come. 1) BOLLYWOOD (3 IDIOTS and LIKE STARS ON EARTH) 2) ATTACK OF THE 50 FOOT WOMAN 3) THE WITCH 4) MONSTERS VS ALIENS 5) WILD TALES 6) THE MALTESE FALCON 7) CITY OF WOMEN wagesofcinema@gmail.com
Derek and Andy W. are back for another of their monthly webcomics episodes, and for April they discuss three exciting titles, two currently ongoing webcomics and one completed series. They begin with Kristen Gudsnuk's Henchgirl, the story of a young villain trying to find her way (and her fortune) in a world of super-powered crime. However, her heart and her relationships keep getting in the way, making her a unlikely and often-torn protagonist. As the Two Guys point out, this is more of a relationship-based story than a superhero one, and Gudsnuk is adept at showing the unglamorous and untold side of villainy. Manga-influenced and reminiscent of the style and tone of Scott Pilgrim, Henchgirl is probably a story aimed at a younger (Millennial?) readership, but it's humor and playfulness can be enjoyed by all. Next, the guys, not intending to be alliterative this month, discuss another H-heavy webcomic. Huge Hana is a relatively recent title created by Ian Burns, with a first installment posted on December 30, 2013, and an active Patreon campaign underway. As Andy describes it, it is a scientific science-fiction tale with a bit of Attack of the 50 Foot Woman thrown in and complete with devastating meteors, mutations, and enough of a medically based premise to set the Center for Disease Control on edge. It's the story of a young woman transformed into a giant and in search of answers to her dilemma, all the while trying to navigate a world that now sees her as a monster. Finally, the guys look at what could arguably called a "classic" in webcomics, Ursula Vernon's Digger. Running from February 2007 to March 2011, Digger is an epic that may have you reaching for your copy of Joseph Campbell's Hero with a Thousand Faces. It involves an anthropomorphic wombat far from home and in an unlikely team-up with the Hindu deity, Ganesh -- or at least a wooden statue of the god. Accompanied by an exiled hyena skin painter, a mentally unstable worshipper of Ganesh, and a shadow born of a white bird that just may be a demon, the story's hero, also known as the Digger-of-Unnecessarily-Convoluted-Tunnels, reluctantly undergoes a journey to uncover the source of evil magic that is gumming up the world. If you're a fan of such quest narratives as Tolkein's The Hobbit, Dave Sim's Cerebus, or Jeff Smith's Bone, then Digger is definitely a webcomic for you.

Yvette Vickers played supporting roles in two unforgettable 1950's science-fiction movies: "Attack of the 50 Foot Woman" and "Attack of the Giant Leeches". As far as I'm concerned, she stole the show both times. But, Yvette Vickers is now dead. Or rather, she was found dead, on the 27th of April last year (2011). The conditions under which she was found, and the conditions under which she apparently lived her life near the end of it, evoke floods of compassion. They simply have to. How could this have happened? How could Yvette Vickers, our once-and-future (saucy) flame, have ended that way? This podcast -- I wouldn't mind calling it pastoral -- is an attempt to understand.

When it was released on a 1958 double bill with "War of the Satellites", no one could have predicted that this mini-budget exploitation film would become one of the most famous titles in movie history.
