Ramp up the violence and turn down the storytelling; it's Part Two of our Alien franchise reappraisal! This week, we pick up with "Alien 3" and analyze why it's so fit for reclamation from fans and cinephiles alike. At the 24-minute mark, Chance is joined by the hosts of the Alien universe podcast "Perfect Organism." Jaime Prater and Ryan Zeid discuss why the narrative hardship of "Alien 3" appeals to them and why the cutesy self-awareness of "Alien: Resurrection" certainly does not. At 44 minutes, your hosts jump back into "Resurrection" and consider whether creative gore is enough to merit a "bad-good" rating. Finally, at 59 minutes, Noah and Chance debate whether the fact that "Alien Vs. Predator" is better than you might think is actually a good thing. It's six more hours of aliens and a lifetime of images you can't un-see! Listen to our guests' wonderful podcast here: https://perfectorganism.podbean.com/
Nasir and Matt talk about the changes at Starbucks that have led to many disgruntled employees and customers. Full Podcast Transcript NASIR: Welcome to our podcast where we cover business in the news and add our legal twist. My name is Nasir Pasha. MATT: And I’m Matt Staub. NASIR: And we are talking about our second favorite food item, I would say, right? After pizza. Would you say? Coffee. MATT: Is that a food? NASIR: No, uh… that’s true. MATT: I guess you could freeze it and then eat it, but it seems more like a beverage. NASIR: Well, you know what I mean – at least we talk about it. I know you and I tend to talk about coffee a lot for some reason, too. It seems like it comes up. I don’t know if it’s on the podcast or otherwise. Or we’re just happy to be drinking coffee at a coffee shop. MATT: Well, it’s possible. I mean, I don’t like Starbucks – which is what we’re going to talk about today – and I think I’ve mentioned that many times how it’s more of a convenience. Basically, if I need coffee and it’s the only option available, that’s the only time I go there. Even when people want to meet at Starbucks, I’m always reluctant and try to go somewhere else. NASIR: Try to go somewhere else. MATT: I don’t really necessarily try. I mean, now, I oftentimes just suggest where we should go. NASIR: It’s not that I don’t like Starbucks nor do I like it. it’s just that I have had great coffee and there’s a difference but I’m also very tolerable to different degrees of quality. MATT: Yeah, that’s the thing. I will say, I mean, I only drink iced coffee. NASIR: That makes a big difference. MATT: Their cold brew that they’ve had this last year – maybe more than that – is actually not bad. I’ll give them that. NASIR: Okay, we’ll give them that. MATT: Yeah, I can drink that. I don’t drink hot drinks so maybe that’s the problem. NASIR: Maybe they’ll be a successful company now that they have some good iced beverages. MATT: Yeah, I was looking up the numbers for how many stores they have. We can get to that in a bit. NASIR: How many stores do they have? MATT: More than 23,000 in 2015. NASIR: Wow. MATT: Looks like about half of that… NASIR: Half of them are right next to each other. MATT: They’re on the same block, basically. NASIR: Yeah. MATT: About half of that looks like to be US locations but that number is a year older. I don’t know. It’s somewhere in there. But it’s quite a bit, obviously. Let’s get into this. First, it all kind of stems from this – I assume it’s a barista who started this post – basically saying the morale at Starbucks amongst the people working there is at a low – maybe an all-time low – or at least it’s sinking because a slew of issues, the first of which being the hours that the baristas are working there. I think it’s well-documented that Starbucks offers benefits to its employees which I think has been a huge selling point for a long time now. It’s something they’ve gotten a lot of praise for. But, if you work there for the requirement to get those benefits or you have to work at least 20 hours a week so obviously the workers want to do that, but I would guess that most of the people working there probably see this as a full-time job just because, if you’re working a minimum 20 hours a week during the day, I mean, it’s tough to work two part-time jobs – just from a logistics standpoint – to make it all sort out. The problem that it looks like a lot of these workers are having are it’s very difficult to work more than 25 hours a week there based on the scheduling that’s been done in recent months or I don’t know how long it’s been going on but that seems to be the case. NASIR: I think for a little bit now. And so, one of the reasons we’re talking about this is because this barista – like you were saying – Jaime Prater, he started this campaign on this website. I’ve never heard of it. it’s called coworker.org and it’s basically an open letter to Starbucks where you can get multiple signat...
Jaime Prater grew up in the christian commune Jesus People USA Evangelical Covenant Church. Years later he went back to make a documentary about his experience growing up in the commune and what he discovered was a dark underbelly of abuse and manipulation. Jaime and I discuss the making of the documentary, growing up gay in a christian commune and life after living in such a closed off community.
