Sub to the PPM Patreon to hear the entirety of our hour and a half Kirk Clipping spectacle deep dive: patreon.com/ParaPowerMappingI sat down with Tarence Ray from Trillbilly Worker's Party, a true left podcasting wordsmith, to interrogate the Charlie Kirk assassination aka the Killing of the Kirk spectacle aka the Burger Reichstag Fire aka the Martyrdom of Groyp Wessel aka the Night of the Long Gums... I'm referring to the sniping of the Millennial Buckley Jr. esque campus culture warrior at Utah Valley University two days ago. Be mindful that this was recorded early on the 12th of September with smoke still clearing and dust settling, so information and musings contained herein are subject to change and revision considering how erratically the situation has been developing.We explore the ensuing propaganda fracas; the identity of the most recent suspect Tyler Robinson and his possible military uncle and alleged Discord-to-Kill, America First indoctrination; the AmerIsraeli Years of Lead and Eddington parallels; the Epstein Bday Album and Bibi's suspiciously timed "get ahead of Isntreali-triggered deep event" conservative media tour; who stands to benefit?; Mormon Central and the Latter Day Saints in the CIA; backroom Trumpworld power struggles; Peter Thiel, Musk, and Palantir; AI psychosis and the DARPA-machine of Tension; Groyper Wars; some of the positively deranged TikTokslop that has issued forth, like the Polynesian Mormon Eldertiktok character who soyfaced on live immediately after the shooting and expropriated Kirk merch; the prescience of Pynchon's Bleeding Edge and Inherent Vice; and a whole lot more. I may yet update the liner notes later, but this is all you're getting for now because I stayed up until like 4 AM to get this thing off the ground and airborne.Trillbilly Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/c/trillbillyworkersparty/Tarence's Twitter: https://x.com/tarencerayMusic and Clips:| Matt Akers - "Replicant" | | Matt Akers - "The Exclusive Theme" | | Charlie Kirk Clipping audio | | Trump eulogy || Polynesian Mormon TikTok Influencer Shooting Bystander Effect Phenom vid - Eldertiktok | | Tucker Carlson Puts Sam Altman on the spot re the likely Suchir Balaji hit | | Nick Fuentes' preemptive disavowal of Groyper Wars violence & reprisals post-Kirk death | | Erica Kirk speaks about the future of Turning Point |
Thomas Pynchon es un escritor invisible: lejos de la vida pública, eligió hablar solo a través de sus libros. Un autor del que casi no existen fotos y cuya obra ha intrigado tanto como su vida. Tras algunos documentales, llegó en 2014 la primera adaptación oficial: “Inherent Vice”, dirigida por Paul Thomas Anderson. Ahora, el cineasta vuelve con una nueva apuesta: Una batalla tras otra, basada en la novela “Vineland”.

This week we're excited to present an archival conversation from the 52nd New York Film Festival in 2014 with Inherent Vice director Paul Thomas Anderson and his very large and talented cast. For one week only from July 4-10, join Film at Lincoln Center in revisiting this great American film on 70mm film, ahead of the director's highly anticipated new feature One Battle After Honor. Get tickets at filmlinc.org/vice This conversation was moderated by Kent Jones, former Director of the New York Film Festival. Paul Thomas Anderson's wild and entrancing Thomas Pynchon adaptation is a cinematic time machine, placing the viewer deep within the world of the paranoid, hazy L.A. dope culture of the early '70s. It's not just the look (which is ineffably right, from the mutton chops and the peasant dresses to the battered screen doors and the neon glow), it's the feel, the rhythm of hanging out, of talking yourself into a state of shivering ecstasy or fear or something in between. Joaquin Phoenix goes all in as Doc Sportello, the private investigator searching for his ex-girlfriend Shasta (Katherine Waterston), menaced at every turn by the telegenic police detective “Bigfoot” Bjornsen (Josh Brolin). Among the other members of Anderson's mind-boggling cast are Reese Witherspoon, Benicio Del Toro, Martin Short, Owen Wilson, and Jena Malone.

(Among other things, three major cast members―Schroeder, Lucy, and Linus―initially show up as infants and only "grow" into their final "mature" selves as the months go by. Even Snoopy debuts as a puppy!) Thus The Complete Peanuts offers a unique chance to see a master of the art form refine his skills and solidify his universe, day by day, week by week, month by month.

Devin O'Shea guides us into the world of acclaimed novelist Thomas Pynchon, whose cryptic, sprawling narratives echo the chaotic info deluge of contemporary digital culture. With Paul Thomas Anderson's newest Pynchon adaptation, One Battle After Another, hitting theaters in September 2025, and Pynchon himself releasing a fresh novel, Shadow Ticket, in October, it's time to unpack what makes Pynchon uniquely relevant today. From the hippie noir mystery of Inherent Vice to the critically-panned Vineland, we explore why this reclusive author has captivated (and frequently frustrated) readers for decades. Along the way, we discuss the complex relationship his work has with history, conspiracy, technology, and power.

Episode 250 of the Not A Bomb podcast is now available! To celebrate this milestone, we're discussing one of our most requested films: Movie 43. This comedy anthology, featuring 20 directors, 15 writers, and numerous A-list stars, was filmed over a four-year period and pays homage to classics like The Kentucky Fried Movie. Movie 43, a film so infamous, is often hailed as one of the worst ever made. But is there any fun to be had in the chaos? What possessed so many A-list actors to sign on? And most importantly: should you watch it… or run screaming in the other direction? Additionally, Brad and Troy want to take a moment to express their gratitude to our amazing listeners for their support throughout these 250 episodes. The Not A Bomb community is fantastic, and we can't thank you enough!Movie 43 is directed by way too many directors and stars a lot of people.
