In a city where the rents are too high, the subways are too slow, and morale barely hovers above cope, repertory options might make such troubles worthwhile. So one thinks while looking over Mikio Naruse: The World Betrays Us, a career-spanning, 35mm-rich, two-cinema retrospective that began last weekend at Japan Society and will continue at Metrograph. It was my pleasure to sit down with those theaters' respective programmers, Alexander Fee and Edo Choi, for a discussion of Naruse's necessity in both theatrical and celluloid contexts, titles of particularly special note, and––most importantly––the best places to eat in each institution's neighborhood.

Each touches on the idea of letting go.  In “Hawaii,” Aoko Matsuda imagines a afterlife for garments.  It's read by Maria Dizzia.  In “Sunrise,” by Erika Kobayashi, a woman's life parallels the world of nuclear power.  The reader is Rita Wolf.  And Hugh Dancy meets a mermaid in Hiromi Kawakami's “I Won't Let You Go.”

Immediate dentin sealing is a commonly known technique even outside of advanced adhesive and biomimetic restorative dentistry. Originally developed in the 1990's to solve the issue of temporization contamination, its uses once refined were immense when applied to dentin adhesion. Yet for doctors currenting using immediate dentin sealing as part of their restoration protocols, there may be more benefits left untapped when not used as part of a larger system of protocols that aim to mimic the natural function of a tooth: the Six Lessons Approach to Biomimetic Restorative Dentistry.Dr. Alleman discusses the history of immediate dentin sealing, its early pioneers and how doctors can use this technique in their own practice to save pulps and maximize adhesion.Publications discussed in this episode:Paul SJ, Schärer P.

In Slow Down: The Degrowth Manifesto, Kohei Saito explores the relationship between capitalism and the climate crisis. He argues, controversially, that to have any chance of achieving true sustainability, we must move to a system which deemphasizes growth, adopts different metrics of progress, expands the commons, and places value on goods and services which are not currently considered as part of the economy, like caregiving and nature.Saito is an associate professor of philosophy at the University of Tokyo and a recipient of the Japan Society for the Promotion of Science prize, which is awarded to the top scholar in Japan under the age of 45. His book, published previously in Japan, became an unexpected bestseller, shipping more than half a million copies to date.Together with Martin Reeves, Chairman of BCG Henderson Institute, Saito discusses the arguments for fundamental economic system change, explores the feasibility of less radical alternatives, and assesses implications for business leaders. The book's propositions will likely seem very radical to many of our business listeners—but as Saito notes, sometimes utopian ideas can be a stimulus for generating new thinking for complex intractable topics like climate change.Key topics discussed: 01:50 | Defining the problem and the need for system-level change06:21 | The relation between capitalism and technological progress08:41 | Exploring alternative, less radical solutions13:32 | The need for a new measurement of economic and social progress17:08 | The feasibility of a transition to a new system21:41 | Implications for business leaders25:35 | Reasons to remain hopefulThis podcast uses the following third-party services for analysis: Chartable - https://chartable.com/privacy
