Scarlett Johansson playing a cold, indifferent alien probably wasn't something her fans expected from her. She was an A-lister who was a key figure in all those Marvel movies, but here she was in Under The Skin, the only actor of note in a detached art film. The movie star even gets nude a lot in her role as a succubus who learns how to feel empathy. Jonathan Glazer's strangest film to date is Kubrickian (and Lynchian) in its style and also its themes of gender roles, sexual assault...and even meat-eating. So Under The Skin isn't perfect, but there are shots that really stay with you. Plus, it's interesting...and we mean that in a good way. This 612th podcast on the Have You Ever Seen channel tries to figure out what's going on in Glazer's 3rd motion picture (perhaps unsuccessfully), so tell us if you think we're onto something...or if ou think we're way off. Well, Actually: Gemma Arterton's first name is in fact pronounced with a hard "J" sound, not a soft "G" sound.

Tis' Kubrick Month! Dhruv, Amartya, and Hemant will spend the entirety of July revisiting and discussing 10 (of 13) Kubrick-directed films (the Horror and Noir films will be discussed in October and November, respectively!) plus 1 conceptualized and obsessed over by him but eventually directed by his dear friend, Steven Spielberg. In Part 2 (of 4), we focus on Kubrick's historical epics, which feel like a continuation of his War films and, at times, a counterpoint to them. We start by discussing the only film he believes he never had a final cut on—"Spartacus" (1960)—a swords-and-sandals epic whose main point of value for us lies in debating the limits of the auteur theory and the behind-the-scenes shenanigans that made the production a living hell for most involved. Then, we pivot to focus extensively on "Barry Lyndon" (1975), best described as a "rebound" for Kubrick after he couldn't get his "Napoleon" project off the mark. But what if—we discuss and argue—"Barry Lyndon" is his best film? What if it retains the utter silliness of "Dr. Strangelove" but somehow also works as a heartbreaking character tragedy? Listen to the full episode and much more about Yorgos Lanthimos ("The Favourite," "Poor Things") and Sofia Coppola's ("Marie Antoinette") Kubrickian touches in their period pieces!

This week's movie is truly baffling as the guys look at the Christmas (adjacent) film Pottersville, which is somehow not about the fantasy town from It's a Wonderful Life. Nope, it's about a sasquatch... and the furry community? Nathan and Brendan of course discuss all the furries content (especially the Kubrickian dance party in the woods), a detail about Thomas Lennon's character that left a bad taste in Brendan's mouth, the references (with no jokes) to Jaws and that Christian Bale rant and much more. This is a bizarre one, folks. Plus: Nathan makes a promise to all the Patrons. Next week: our last full episode of the year! What We've Been Watching: Rye Lane "Joe Pera: Slow and Steady" Questions?

Cinema has had a long relationship with cigarettes, starting in the early 1920's right through to the 50's where your favourite star was almost certainly aggressively hawking their product directly to you in their latest film as well as hacking up globs of green and brown sputum in between takes. Legislation and the momentum of social opinion saw a dramatic decline in depictions of smoking on screen over the years but let's face it, if you ever want to establish your character is tense or hedonistic or self-destructive, if you ever need to show they are stressed, have just had sex or are about to undertake a heroic suicide mission, if you need a single thing to show your audience that your protagonist is impossibly cool then you're not going to be doing that with a vape are you. We take time off from our busy lives to bring you the Top 5 Cigarettes, a discussion so good it will take your breath away. GET OUT is Jordan Peele's sensational 2017 horror and follows photographer Chris as he runs a dizzying gauntlet of trying to remain politely affable whilst attempting to not be too offended when he meets girlfriend Rose's liberal parents for the first time in a wearying weekend away. It's MEET THE FOCKERS with racism then, right? Well not quite. A movie which intentionally plays on the fear of white people, for example the worry that young black males might reasonably have of experiencing violence in predominantly white American suburbs or the existence of apparently well-meaning surface-level non-racist liberals who turn out to be monsters perpetuating schemes of marginalization, subjugation and literal appropriation, this is an astonishing debut with Kubrickian style attention to detail and foreshadowing, clever dialogue, tight writing, a moody and evocative soundtrack and new ideas and discussions represented on screen. An absolute must see from a unique voice, already its targets seem a little dated with the US having culturally and spiritually regressed about a century since 2017 and the subtle threat of neoliberal racism now far outweighed by the more overt xenophobia and bigotry of the hard right, which seems to have more of a platform than ever. It's the end of winter and Quack the duck has just finished his latest installation of Snow duck art in PEEP AND THE BIG WIDE WORLD. When a bored Peep and Chirp discover the astonishing things you can do with beaver, life will never be the same for either of them again.

Troy Howarth returns to The Remedial Film Class Podcast for his first non-italian (and non-horror) film discussion. As we trace the roots of Nolan's film The Dark Knight, we begin with an early heist noir movie from a fresh faced upstart filmmaker who very shortly would go on to the highest artistic plane. Stanley Kubrick is no stranger to the show, and George is no stranger to his later works, but will Dan convince the guys that this film school classic is worthy of discussion in the same sentence as The Shining, Dr. Stranglove and The Dark Knight? Will George catch the nuance of the "proto-Kubrickian" camera work? Will he recognize Dix Handley himself, Sterling Hayden? Will he at least recognize the Joker's mask from the robbery scene? Will Travis be won over by a swearing Parrot? Will Troy buy Dan's rather specific theories on John Carpenter movies? Did Dan just find someone that agrees with him on film scoring method? Tune in to find out! And after the episode, check out the Extra Credit Discussion group on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/groups/remedialfilmpod Did you know we are now on YouTube?

Holy monarchy, Batman! We were absolutely blown away by this (as the film labels itself) “fable of a true tragedy”. Join us as we dive into the Kubrickian elements of this film and the ways in which the audience is supremely unsettled by Diana's experience in the Royal Family. Kristen Stewart shines brighter than all the Crown Jewels combined, as her outstanding performance makes us question over and over what is real and what is imagined. The film features ghosts, hauntings, and characters interacting with their own preoccupations - Steven Knight was definitely wearing his Peaky Blinders hat when he wrote this script. This film challenges our modern view of the Royal Family (particularly that born from The Crown), and is a tragically, horrifically, and devastatingly beautiful portrayal of Diana Spencer.

It's the big 5-0 as we hold court for the mighty mister Flanagan once more--this time for his vastly overlooked Doctor Sleep. It's another King adaptation widely considered impossible, but he handles it with a deft hand and may have crafted a worthy, but wildly different, follow-up to a Kubrickian classic. Come find out if the world needs to wake up to this one!
Sidey starts things up by spoiling NO TIME TO DIE so if you are a Bond fan and you don't want that to happen, be warned! Peter is back and being a pain in the neck as we conclude vampire week with a look at the Top 5 TV and Movie Vampires, as reasonable a place as any to start. Peter's abundant free time means he has seen a fair share of classics featuring the fanged antagonists over the last few weeks, will the rest of the Dads be able to match his knowledge, or do we just suck? Whichever way you look at it, LET THE RIGHT ONE IN is a dark Swedish horror movie exploring the relationship between a creepy kid with a terrible haircut and violent tendencies and a decades old vampire who looks like a 12-year-old girl. I love this movie, but it genuinely baffles me that people think this is a romance; mostly this is about need and co-dependency and control which are just some of the amazing things that I bring to a relationship which are not ideal. Taking the main themes and metaphors associated with the vampire mythology - craving, eroticism, impulsivity - and jamming them into a macabre, slow-paced drama about social alienation, with plenty of Kubrickian shot composition and transgressive sexual elements, this is great stuff. Well done Sweden. When Nanny accidentally poured ketchup into the reincarnation chamber instead of blood little did she know that she would accidentally unleash upon the world the full terror of a DANGER MOUSE spin-off called COUNT DUCKULA. This one appears to be big in the UK and in South America, two cultures not necessarily known for their shared cultural darlings. Duckula himself is said to be the last in a long line of vampire barons, however as you and I both know, the continental title "Count" is equivalent to an earl, which outranks both viscounts (vice counts) and barons. NO SAX PLEASE WE'RE EGYPTIAN sees the vegetarian vampire in Egypt along with his trusty vulture manservant (vultureservant?) Igor and gigantic oafish chambermaid Nanny, chased by The Crow Brothers, in search of a mysterious saxophone protected by Humite, a priest of Ra the Egyptian sun god, and his assistant, Yoobee, with some witty Two Ronnies style misunderstandings along the way.We love to hear from our listeners!

Vidi Shining al cinema, con il mio compagno di banco, e dopo andammo a passeggio nel porto, al buio, di notte, in piena maestralata, per avere paura. TRASCRIZIONE TESTO La notte scorsa, prima di andare a letto, il mio giro solito di televisione dopo che spengo Netflix, sono capitata negli ultimi dieci minuti di Shining il film di Kubrick. Vabbè che fai quando capiti nelle ultime scene di Shining, non rimani a guardare? Certo, sono rimasta a guardare fino alla fine gli ultimi dieci minuti. Shining è un film pazzesco. Kubrick non è il mio regista preferito però è nell'Olimpo dei miei registi, tra quelli preferiti, anche se non il preferito in assoluto. Sì, Shining lo vidi quando uscì nelle sale cinematografiche. Ricordo esattamente la situazione. Io ero ragazzina, era inverno, era una di quelle sere d'inverno con un fortissimo maestrale che soffiava, Cagliari è molto esposta al maestrale soprattutto soprattutto d'inverno. Andai a vedere il film col mio amatissimo compagno di banco. Andammo al cinema, era inverno, quindi era già buio, e mi fece tantissima paura, mi colpì tantissimo il film, saltai e gridai in tutti i in tutti i passaggi dove il regista voleva che io saltassi e gridassi. Sì, e la cosa divertente è che tutti e due rimanemmo molto, molto scossi, ci piacque tantissimo il film, e una volta finito, il cinema dove andammo a vederlo era vicino al porto, e dopo finito i film andammo a fare una passeggiata al porto. Voi immaginatevi questa scenografia: il porto di Cagliari di notte, perché ormai era già buio, con questo maestrale pazzesco, e mi sa che noi andammo proprio per avere paura, perché, tipo perché uscimmo dal cinema ancora molto scossi e dicemmo, te lo immagini adesso andare a fare una passeggiata al porto al buio? Sì dai, perché noi andiamo a fare una passeggiata al porto al buio? E lo facemmo. Facevamo cose del genere con il mio amatissimo compagno di banco. Sì ho visto con molto piacere gli ultimi dieci minuti del film. No non vi racconto il finale, casomai qualcuno ancora non lo avesse visto. Sì concludo questo armacord kubrickiano spiegandovi che i rumori che sentite in sottofondo sono dovuti al fatto che in questi giorni, oggi ma anche nei giorni seguenti (perché ho sentito che la temperatura si aggirerà verso i 40 gradi) sto registrando i miei tre minuti grezzi giornalieri con la finestra aperta, perché sudo da morire e non voglio essere condizionata che non mi piace e comunque farebbe ancora più rumore, quindi i rumori dal vivo.ENGLISH TRANSLATIONLast night, before going to bed, on my usual TV channel surfing after turning off Netflix, I happened upon the last ten minutes of Kubrick's The Shining. Oh well, and what do you do when you chance upon the last scenes of The Shining, don't you stay and watch? Sure, I did watch until the end. The Shining is an amazing movie. Kubrick is not my ultimate favorite director, but he is in the Olympus of my directors, among the favorite ones, even if not the absolute favorite. I saw The Shining when it came out in theaters. I remember it vividly. I was a girl, it was winter, one of those winter evenings with a very strong mistral blowing, Cagliari is very exposed to the mistral, especially in winter. I went to see it with my beloved classmate. We went to the cinema, it was winter, so it was already dark, and the movie scared me so much, it made such an impression on me I jumped and shouted in all the right places, where the director wanted me to jump and to shout. Yes, and the funny thing is that we were both very, very shaken, we loved the movie. Once it ended, you see, the cinema was near the harbour, and after the movie, we went for a walk in the harbour. Just imagine: Cagliari harbour at night, already dark by now, with this crazy mistral, and I think we went just to be afraid, because, it was like, we leaving the cinema still quite shaken and then, can you imagine now going for a walk in the harbor in the dark? Yes come on, why don't we go for a walk in the harbor in the dark? And we did it. We used to do things like that with my beloved classmate. Yes, I was very pleased to watch the last ten minutes of the film. No I won't tell you the ending, in case someone hasn't seen it yet. Yes, I conclude this Kubrickian blast-from-the-past by explaining that the noises you hear in the background are due to the fact that in these days, today but also in the coming days (because I have heard that the temperature will be around 40 degrees) I am recording my three daily uncut minutes with the window open, because I sweat to death and I don't want to be conditioned which I don't like and in any case it would make even more noise, hence the live noises.

Today, we sit down to discuss one of Nicholas Winding Refn's most accessible and cinematically astute films, the Ryan Gosling-led arthouse noir sendup, Drive. We explore the thematic use of color; the poignant performances of Gosling and co-star Christina Hendricks; the caustic, yet slightly Kubrickian direction Refn imbues in his movie; and the cars that make up the backbone of this film.

Why Are Dads is a show in which hosts Sarah Marshall and Alex Steed attempt to understand what the hell it means to be the grown children of dads and other dad-like figures. And, as they do with all difficult subject matter, they do so by looking through a pop culture lens.
Brooklyn-based writer and podcaster Matthew Perpetua (Fluxblog) joins the pod for an extended conversation about Steely Dan, a Boomer band that Gen X had to learn to like (as they got older) but which had a different appeal for Millennials and Gen Z thanks to their music being sampled in hip-hop and their inclusion in “Yacht Rock” subculture. Along the way we discuss the cinematic properties of the band's music through their storytelling and Kubrickian approach to production, the heavy use of irony and subversion in their lyrics, the usual reasons why people bear grudges against their music, and an appreciation of their 1980 album Gaucho as the perfect soundtrack for people just vibin' in COVID-era solitude.

Episode 42 : Kubrick's Hour : End of Year Round-Up 2020 with the team from SKAS 2020. The year that took years, and took years off our lives; and with terrible sadness and personal grief not lost to those of us in Kubrick’s Universe, years away from far too many souls. 2020. That was the year that… sucked. Two-thousand and twenty. The year we… avoided contact. Your friends at our humble podcast have had difficulty keeping up with providing new episodes, but not because of a shortage of an amount of great interviews or content, but because of the very same things most of everyone listening has had to contend with — because unforeseen circumstances and survival itself got in the way. In fact, we’ve had some fascinating interviews and great conversations with Kubrick scholars, collaborators, and fans during 2020. We are hanging onto them, archiving them, and working on getting them out to you just as soon as we can. In the past few years, the Kubrick’s Universe team has put out a “year in review” edition, cultivated by our research, before the holidays. This time around, we’re here to say “And now for something completely different”. If 2020 was many unprecedented things, it was also the year of remote video conferencing — the year of Zoom. Enter our intrepid Mark Lentz, media maestro and man of many kind deeds. Mark, along with two of the greatest and coolest Kubrick scholars, James Marinaccio and James Sherman, stepped up and orchestrated a very cool and brand new concept, “The Kubrick Hour” on Zoom, as a way to keep enthusiasts connected during the most difficult year any of us can remember. We present this unique concept and approach for us to our Year In Review episode this go-around. What you’re about to hear is the result of Mark and James’s efforts to orchestrate a virtual roundtable discussion of the year in Kubrick news, two thousand-twenty, with a moderated group of venerated enthusiasts. For this episode we were privileged to have discussion among John Harig, Mike MediaMan, Mark McKennon, Jorge Albararán Riquleme, Ian Roscow, Anne Strauss-Weider, Max Rendon, Maria, Jerry Furst, and our very own and very lovable producer, Stephen Rigg. We hope you enjoy this new idea. We’re proud of it. Just remember, if you’re on a Zoom call with a Kubrick fan you’ve never met before and you feel put on the spot when they ask you what’s your favorite food then, simply reply “French fries and ketchup” and you’ll get along fine. So it is with great pleasure that we present to you a round-table discussion from the 19th December 2020 with our wonderful Kubrickian friends.

"You don't find reality only in your own backyard, you know," Stanley Kubrick once told an interviewer. "In fact, sometimes that's the last place you'll find it." Oddly, this episode of Weird Studies begins with Phil Ford hatching the idea of putting a replica of the monolith from 2001 in his backyard. As the ensuing discussion suggests, this would amount to putting reality -- or the Real, as we like to call it -- in the place where it may be least apparent. Perhaps that is what Kubrick did when he planted his monolithic film in thousands of movie theatres back in 1968. Moviegoers went in expecting a Kubrickian twist on Buck Rogers; they came out changed by the experience, much like the hominids of great veld in the "Dawn of Man" sequence that opens the film. This is what all great art does, and if you look closely, maybe 2001 can tell you something about how it does it. Because in the end, the film is the monolith, and the monolith is all art.

To cap off this exciting excursion off the list, Brendan and Jason examine a film that may be a cautionary tale for our current world situation. Okay... maybe that is a BIT exaggerated but the movie looked intriguing and we needed a reason to watch it, alright? Anyway. The guys discussed the film The Girl with All the Gifts, a film that focuses on a small band of survivors in the midst of a zombie outbreak. If that sounds familiar, that's because it has all the structure of a familiar movie but takes a lot of left turns. They also examine how the film utilizes Kubrickian imagery, the notion of nurture vs. nature (it's not as pretentious as it sounds), they analyze the very polarizing ending and much more. The guys also roll the dice to find out what they'll be watching next week. Join us, won't you?

This week, the guys chat about "Doctor Sleep," the movie that hardly anybody saw last year, and it's a crying shame. The long-awaited sequel to The Shining is a Kubrickian, spooky but affectionate swan-song to all things Overlook. We discuss Mike Flanagan's legacy as a Master of Horror, the staying power of Stephen King, and unfortunate Marlon Brando anecdotes... --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/thelatenightpictureshow/support
The Constant Viewer podcast turns its eyes on Stanley Kubrick's 1980 adaptation of The Shining. This is one of the icons of the horror cinema, and to do it justice we got in film reviewer and genre expert Vincent M. Gaine to wield the scalpel as we dissect this masterpiece. We also take time to check Dr Sleep's temperature, and look how Mike Flanagan's 2019 adaptation of The Shining's sequel continues the story of the Torrance family. This episode was hosted by Richard Sheppard, with research and support from Dr Linda Sheppard, and technical and sound production by Stephen L. Parkes.

This geological epoch, Matt and Mark review the Sword and Sorcery/Sandal 80's fantasy film The Beastmaster. Chronologically speaking, a simultaneous release (more or less) with the Milius classic Conan The Barbarian, The Beastmaster lacks the exotic "Je ne se quoi" of the former with a more "back lot" quality that speaks to its production quality. Is it a watchable good film? Kind of... But for a non-discerning 10 year old in the early 80's it was Dungeons and Dragons gold! Shot with Kubrickian precision, it's Barry-Lyndon quality night-shots give it a peculiar look that makes for an honest effort. The Beastmaster knows what kind of film it is, and it serves it up well. That and Rip Torn is a decent stand-in for the ominous "Thulsa Doom" villain archetype.Download: 313 The Beastmaster
Fair warning here: We’re going to talk a LOT about Melba Koh on this one, because even when Clarissa Explains It All™ she is still the most opaque, SIMPLE character in all of The Expanse. On more positive notes, we talk about the easiest work week Steven Strait ever had, what happens when you trap two great antagonists in a room with farming equipment, the place of Kubrickian psychedelia in our formerly grounded SF drama, and the lesson Anna Volovodov learned.

What did you think of Jonathan Glazer's 2013 minimalist sci-fi UNDER THE SKIN, starring Scarlett Johansson? Did it all make sense when you watched it the first time? Or did it only reveal it to yourself after another viewing? Today your hosts, Bill and Renan, come at it from different perspectives and have, well, different perspectives on it. Topics discussed include how the film was made and what it means, how it differs from the book and early scripts, and how it relates to ScarJo's stardom. Plus: other films that double as commentary on their actors, big stars in weird movies, and possible foreshadowing in Glazer's music video career.

Think you've got what it takes to talk Alex Garland and hard sci-fi? Then step into the Shimmer with freelance film critic Kristen Lopez! This week on After the Credits, Matthew and Kristen talk about Alex Garland's oft-discussed Kubrickian nightmare, Annihilation. Does the movie live up to the books? Will audiences ever learn to fully appreciate Jennifer Jason Leigh? And why, exactly, is Gina Rodriguez's side-cut the solution to world peace?
Rolfe Kent and Face2Face host David Peck talk about Alexander Payne’s new film Downsizing, creating chemistry though music, experimentation, writing by walking and relentless enthusiasm. Biography Unexpected texture, sounds and a signature musical personality are the hallmarks of British film composer Rolfe Kent, who has scored more than 50 films, including Academy Award nominated Up in the Air (for which he won a Golden Satellite award), Sideways (for which he was nominated for a Golden Globe and Critics Choice Award in 2007), Labor Day, Bad Words (Jason Bateman’s directorial debut), Dom Hemingway, About Schmidt, Election, Mean Girls, Legally Blonde and Legally Blonde II, Wedding Crashers, The Matador, Reign Over Me, The Hunting Party, and Thank You for Smoking. Kent also composed the Emmy-nominated main title theme for the Showtime hit, Dexter. In 2012, he received the Richard Kirk award for career achievement. Born in England into a non-musical family, Kent intuitively felt at age 12 that he wanted to be a film composer, although his early musical training was brief and not so formal. Citing Jarre’s Lawrence of Arabia and Morricone’s The Good, The Bad and the Ugly, as inspirations, Kent took the advice of an early music teacher to avoid rigid course work that would dampen his enthusiasm. He followed an entirely different path and, taking counterpoint to what is often cited as culture mired in cynicism, profited from his early course work in theology to relate it to music. After enrolling in psychology sutdies at Unviersity of Leeds in Yorkshire, Kent’s musical career was casually begun at a dance club when the director of a play offered him a chance to “do” the music. His jump start was his composition for a stage musical Gross at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival, a springboard for Authors, composers and performers. In the confines of his musically busy studio, one can immediately see why his musical personality is as distinct and his own. Constantly on the go, adventurous and curious, Kent has developed a style that is not only distinct, but indicative of his aversion to the-anticipated-score in tone, texture and rhythm. The walls are lined with many familiar and many more unfamiliar instruments, gingerly handled and gleefully demonstrated for their sonic qualities. Among his collection are the Indonesian percussion instrument the angklung, the shawm (first used in military maneuvers as a psychological weapon), the melodica, used for the light, soothing effect in Kent’s jazz-infused score for his Golden Globe-nominated Sideways, and an instrument he discovered and cannot name that sounds like the world’s beaches at their most romantic high tide... combined. Kent has the distinction of attracting and sustaining relationships with directors as popular and diverse as Alexander Payne, Mark Waters, Jason Reitman, Burr Steers, and Richard Shepard. Synopsis “Alexander [Payne, writer/director] asked for the score to be beautiful classical music,” Kent described. The composer wanted to avoid movie-score clichés and took a different route. “I figured a Kubrickian approach was best, where the music sounds like it existed outside of the film, and was discovered to match the scene perfectly.” Known for using unexpected textures, sounds and his own signature musical personality this opened the floodgates for Rolfe. “As ever, Alexander was open to hearing unexpected sounds, so when I threw him the curve of an opera aria sung in Norwegian, or some bagpipes. He loved it.” In addition to writing the original score for the film, he also co-wrote the original song “A Little Change In The Weather,” performed by The Swingles.

Sylvia Browne, self-described psychic, has gotten herself a new act in the Next World. Just wait til you hear what's getting her on the talk shows these days. The pro-Trump rallies in the Afterlife continue as do the counter-protests led by Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. And his BFF, Adolf Hitler. The Fuhrer, by the way, is sporting a radical new look these days. We'll tell you what it is. Donald Fagen, co-founder of Steely Dan, just arrived in the Next World. He immediately received several job offers, including one from someone we haven't heard from in a while. Who is it and why does his offer raise some intriguing questions? Stanley Kubrick is rumored to have finished principle photography on the movie he wrested control over from Jean-Michel Basquiat and Salvador Dali. In typical Kubrickian fashion, rumors are swirling about a sub-plot he supposedly added to the film at the last minute. What is it and whose hackles is it likely to raise?
S for Stanley and Kubrickian coke addicts?! Rm 237 & 432 hurts! Ariel and Nicky D. dissect "Dr. Stranglove," "2001," (it was Saturn in the books fools!) "Killers Kiss," "Lolita," "The Shining," and "Eyes wide Shut" the hell up! And find me a baby giraffe, cause we pranked the POTUS.
Special thanks to Judd Blevins, who as a Marine has a special place in his heart for Stanley Kubrick's Full Metal Jacket and thus pulled the metaphoric trigger on this commission. A tale of two movies if there ever was one, and featuring what A.Ron describes as a very "un-Kubrickian" structure and asthetic, they guys talk about life in the military, ethics and morality in times of war, season two of Serial Podcast, and probably ill-informed commentary on geopolitics.

READY TO UNLOAD: with Cal & Sanpete Episode # 11-31 LIVE Thursday, October 20th Here's what went down: With Cal running a little late, Sanpete and PJ discuss their top five favorite Kubrickian movies, and what sports story would Kubrick want to take on. Cal jumped in for an in depth discussion about the specialization of pitching in the post season, and how perhaps the saying should be changed to "good specialized pitching beats good hitting". The Jets then got their due as the Fellas figured out if Rex Ryan will burn out before the Jets have a chance to win, and is he indeed the second coming of John Madden. Cal got a primer on how to handle Sanpete live at a Jets game. Then in the RTU: Funload, the boys got into how you view the teams you loved as a kid now, with revelations of drug use, drinking beers on the bench and Popeye's ruining your playoff chances. All in all, a fantastic 2 hours of sports and stuff talk... Check it out! You can subscribe to the podcast by clicking on the ITUNES Icon on the blogtalkradio player!
