The home computer market implodes,  Atari announces 7800 & Console software dries up. These stories and many more on this episode of the VGNRTM!

Laserdiscs! Remember those things? Govier is pumped for his dated, but healthy new collection of LD's. Jeremy Irons appreciation is strong on this show in case you didn't know. Luke defends the acting of Campbell Scott who is the son of the legendary figure George C. Scott. Get ready for laughs when George lights up a heater in an old interview. Luke may have beef with Cameron Crowe & Citizen Dildo. Somehow Dave Pirner gets in the mix because he was in Reality Bites, but really his composition for Chasing Amy's title credits is what really stands out when Pirner comes to mind. Steve finally gets to talk about the non-fiction book called Among The Bros. There is no way you will be bored or zone out when you hear this story. It's funny, terrifying & absurd all at once. Also get ready to not be shocked when Steve reads off the names of well known people who come from a fraternity background known for its racist tendencies across multiple generations. We got your emails! Joe writes us for the first time in a bit & he's got a brief email about the Telegram app & the possible scumbag Pavel Durov who owns it. Mark Zuckerberg through the United States government recently, but neither of these parties can be trusted. Govier recalls the 1995 classic film Full Body Massage starring Mimi Rogers & Cocktail's Bryan Brown. There is a classic scene involving Bryan Brown asking Mimi's character,"Is this how Doug does it?". It was constantly repeated by the entire crew of this show for many years starting back in 2004. Check it out if you've never seen it! Our most dedicated podcast lover Mr. Pink emails the show! Pink has an undying passion for Luke's sexy vocal prowess. Cinema 9 Podcast host & indie horror director Eric Branstrom emails the show about his latest Sopranos rewatch & has questions about personal experiences with mob ties. Luke makes it clear he does not want to be near a dead body. Would you rat your friends to avoid jail time? Luke & Steve learn about a shared family history related to the OSS formed by the United States government back during World War II. Govier still cannot find that damn clip from Full Body Massage. Have you heard the comedic stylings of Nato Green? Check out Steve's new show Small Screen Sessions & support our friend Van Lee over at the Boob Tube Boys. We love you all! This talk show is not the same without you listening & emailing us your highly entertaining & thoroughly analyzed thoughts. We close the show with Strange Condition by Pete Yorn. If any of our nonsense provokes your thoughts, please share them with us at isitsafepod@gmail.com or check out our Discord:https://discord.gg/wXPdgujdSj

The Idiots talk ice cream, movies and decapitation.  Luckily, almost no one was stabbed.   

Rod Heaton was one of the fiercest football players in Rio Hondo Prep history. His intimidating presence and intense athleticism put him amongst the all time greats to ever wear the crest on their helmet. Back when I was in 4th grade, Mr Heaton was in his 20s and served as an assistant coach of mine that had a tremendous impact on me and my Gator teammates. He would pick us up for Church and take us on all kinds of fun unique outings. I used to love hearing stories from his high school playing days as we rode around in his pickup truck listening to the latest movie soundtrack music. Mr Heaton was a joy to be around, and I smile often when I think back to some of the best times with him when I was a kid. I really wish I could have seen him play on the field. Rod's team made it to the 1987 Title Game in his senior year. Unfortunately, he and his legendary teammates such as Dave Carson and Randy Johnson finished their incredible careers as a Runner-Up. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/a-charge-to-keep/message

Simon and Eugene discuss the evolution of Bugs into a slicker but more standard thriller, whether ministers in Bugs are dealt with any more consistently than in Doomwatch, and we reminisce about LaserDiscs.

Gab es nicht meistens diesen einen "Film-Nerd“ im Bekanntenkreis, der immer die neuesten VHS-Kassetten, LaserDiscs, DVDs oder Blu-rays besessen hat und die erste Anlaufstelle für einen Filmabend gewesen ist? Egal ob Giallo, 80´s Action-Klopper oder Screwball-Komödie, für jeden Geschmack etwas im gut sortierten Repertoire. Was früher Bewunderung erntete, sorgt heute insbesondere bei der jüngeren Generation eher für mitleidige Blicke: Warum noch einen Haufen Plastikmüll ansammeln, der ohnehin nur Platz blockiert? Aber ist das nicht vielleicht zu kurz gedacht, schließlich gibt es die meisten Filmperlen überhaupt nicht bei den Streaming-Anbietern und eine physische Filmsammlung hat nicht nur bei Enthusiasten ihre Daseinsberechtigung. Schon sind wir aus der Sommerpause und es geht direkt wieder um die existenziellen Fragen... "Willkommen in der letzten Videothek".

We're looking back at Dragon's Lair, released in arcades in 1983. As part of the discussion, we'll look at all the technology that surrounded it, including Videodiscs and Laserdiscs. We'll also briefly look at the career of Dragon's Lair's animator, Don Bluth, and also talk about the career of its game designer, Rick Dyer. Finally, we'll talk at length about why it was such a special game on today's trip down Memory Card Lane.

NOTE: I apologize for the chainsaw sounds in the background. The crew picked an amazing time to endlessly cut trees outside. 😫I recently read Reid Hoffmann's article, Why 10 Year Plans are Wrong. In it, he states:”You will change. The environment around you will change. And your allies and competitors will change.” I agree with what he is saying about planning. Of course, career plans will need to change. A 10-year plan is a bit silly because the world does change so much in a decade. Who could have predicted the impact of the pandemic? Who could have foreseen the massive disruption smartphones would have on our personal and professional lives? Who envisioned all of the novel opportunities enabled and created by online platforms? Strategies and plans will always need to adapt to the changing times. But, if you created your long-term vision the right way, it shouldn’t keep changing. It should endure and stand the test of time. So, don't get distracted by the shiny objects screaming for your attention today. Surface-level trends come and go. If you try to predict the ripples on the surface, you will fail. The hot new profession today may be gone in a few years. That hot new industry everyone is talking about may go cold next year. The technological marvel that all of the investors are pumping may fizzle soon (e.g., Clubhouse). Focus on the core truths of the human condition, if you want to choose a professional path that will endure. Dive deeper and deeper still. What have people always wanted and will always need (until we evolve beyond carbon-based lifeforms)?Let’s use the entertainment industry as an example. What evolution have we witnessed?Stories told around a fire at night. Live plays enjoyed in the village square. Theater performances on stage. Films projected on screens in movie theaters. VHS tapes, Laserdiscs, and DVDs watched in the comfort of your home. Cable television pay-per-view. Netflix delivered DVDs to your home. And now, an explosion of streaming video, gaming, and other entertainment experiences is consumed on tiny computers in the palm of your hand. If you try to predict what's coming next, you might be correct, but you might be so very wrong. If you try to plan a 10-year career and place a bet on where it's all heading, you might win or lose. That's why Reid is correct about the fallacy of concrete 10-year plans. You can't predict the future with enough accuracy for planning that far into the distant years ahead. However, you can return to the core truth that human beings enjoy being entertained. Our brains are large enough (and our modern world is safe enough) that we can frequently focus our minds and senses on fun instead of survival. In some way, shape, or form, people will still want to be entertained — and distracted from reality — ten years from now, 100 years from now, and probably for the rest of your professional career. So, if you tell me that your long-term career goal is to be an executive at Netflix, I will caution you against that decision. For all we know, Netflix could implode in the next five years (e.g., a competitor might kill them just like they killed Blockbuster). Heck, I will say that you're making a mistake even if you tell me that your long-term goal is to be a leader in streaming video. Sure, it seems like it's not going anywhere. But, we said the same thing about many technologies that have gone to the high-tech graveyard in the past 20 years. However, if you want to create a long-term goal of climbing to a leadership role or founding a startup in the business of entertainment, I say go for it! People will always want to be entertained. Just be ready to adapt to the changing “how” of how entertainment will be provided. Invincible Career® is a reader-supported publication.

As Amy Webb said in an HBR article about strategic planning like a futurist:“Nice, linear timelines offer a certain amount of assurance: that events can be preordained, chaos can be contained, and success can be plotted and guaranteed.”Unfortunately, no amount of vision work or planning can control the future. Outside forces collide with the best-laid plans and wreak havoc on expected outcomes (e.g., natural disasters, pandemics, wars, competitive moves). That’s why so many organizations get into a pattern of cycling between strategy and tactics repeatedly and churn their teams. Individuals fall into this trap, as well. I’m just as guilty. I enjoy long-term planning and vision work. But, we can’t predict precisely how our futures will turn out. “Man Plans, and God Laughs.”— Yiddish proverb As a quantitative futurist, Amy Webb suggests a different framework for strategically thinking about the future. Her timelines aren’t lines — they’re “time cones.” The image below illustrates her framework. The tip of the cone lives in the here and now, and tactics come into play because we have the highest degree of certainty, data, and evidence. But, as the cone moves to the right with more time (5 years, 10 years, and further out), it expands more broadly, and details are fuzzier. Outcomes and destinations are less precise and could fall within a broader range of possibilities. Your longer-term vision and strategies become much more useful than tactics. What’s also interesting about her model is that the cone moves. It is not the fixed timeline that most planning exercises use. “Unlike a traditional timeline with rigid dates and check-ins, the cone always moves forward. As you gain data and evidence and as you make progress on your actions, the beginning of the cone and your tactical category is always reset in the present day. The result, ideally, is a flexible organization that is positioned to continually iterate and respond to external developments.”— Amy Webb, How to Do Strategic Planning Like a FuturistControl, influence, or adapt?This topic of long-term goals and trying to plan your future reminds me of the concept of “Locus of control,” which was created by the psychologist Julian Rotter. Your life is full of actions you take, actions others take, events in the world around you, and outcomes. If you have a greater external locus of control, you tend to place the power over outcomes in the hands of others, luck or fate, or other “powers that be.” You say things like:“I just got lucky.”“He was in the right place at the right time.”“I can’t do anything about it. What will be, will be.”“I received a bad grade because the teacher doesn’t like me.”“The boss only promotes her favorite employees.” If you have a greater internal locus of control, you believe your actions determine or influence outcomes. You say things like:“I worked really hard to get where I am.”“He received that award because he’s super smart and talented.”“I know that I control my destiny.”“I received a bad grade because I didn’t study enough for the test.”“The boss promotes people who get results.” Of course, this concept isn’t black and white. Most of us have a belief system somewhere along a continuum. We either tend to think we are more in control of the outcomes in our lives or those outcomes are more out of our hands. Interestingly, people with a greater external locus of control have higher levels of depression and anxiety. They feel like nothing they do matters. A pure internal locus of control isn’t so great, either. If you do that, you blame yourself completely for every failure. The reality is that it is a balance. Yes, you can take action and shape outcomes. But, other people and the world around you will have a significant impact on outcomes too. And, people who are more balanced in how they think about external vs. internal control report being happier (April, Dharani, & Peters, 2012). I've coached several people who told me that their career "just happened to them." They took the jobs that came their way, but they never intentionally pursued what they wanted. At some point, that approach failed them, they had a bad experience, or their career stalled. However, when they shifted their locus of control more internally, they decided that they could control the path of their careers. They could intentionally decide how to prepare and position themselves. They knew they could influence the outcome. They ended up in a much better place. I created a worksheet (available below) that is a useful way to examine a situation you might be facing that feels out of your control. It can help shift your locus of control away from external forces and reduce feelings of helplessness. The exercise challenges you to identify what you actually can control, what you might be able to influence, and what you probably have to accept. The downloadable worksheet is free for the first 1,000 people who claim it. Grab yours today!"Do you remember who you were, before the world told you who you should be?" — Charles BukowskiYour heart is stablePeople don't change. We mature, evolve, learn, and grow. But, we don't fundamentally change. I've observed that truism in my children as I've watched them grow up from babies to young adults. I still see the core of their personalities, likes, and dislikes despite the other changes in their lives. I've seen it in myself. I've watched my life come almost full circle. Sure, my career has transformed — often radically — about every ten years. Blue-collar workAcademic pursuits to receive my Ph.D.Software designManagement and leadershipStartup lifeBuilding my own businessCoachingAnd who knows what will come next?However, what has remained surprisingly stable and accurate is my ideal vision for my life. That has lasted more than 50 years. I got sidetracked along the way and distracted by false goals, but I'm finally returning to that vision of what I always wanted. I'm slowly but surely finding my way there (and have never been happier). What's always been true:I'm an introvert who prefers mainly working alone. I'm a creator who brings what's in my head to life with words, art, and music. I wither when I'm trapped in the concrete world of cities. I thrive when I'm in the mountains, deep in the woods, and away from crowds. It took most of my life, but I've come full circle to what my heart always wanted. So, sure, a 10-year rigid career plan is ridiculous. Who knows what the world will be like and what you'll have to do to survive?But, having a lifetime vision, mission, sense of purpose, and meaning? Yes. Yes, that is possible. I think it’s so important that I dedicated a chapter in my book to it. Will you learn more about yourself and course correct over the years? Yes, I’m sure you will. But, without a vision and a sense of purpose, what are you? A tiny boat on the surface of a stormy sea being thrust wherever the winds of fate blow you? That's surviving, not thriving. It's ok for the short term but pretty miserable as a lifelong lifestyle.Yes, be agile with your tactics in the near term. Be flexible with your strategy for the next few years. But, don’t be afraid to create an enduring and inspirational long-term vision for your life. ”And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition.

One day in the distant future, when everyone will get around in flying cars, movies will be watched with LASERS.  Well, let's not get ahead of ourselves.  We might not have flying cars but the home video industry runs on Lasers.  Actually it has been for almost 40 years.  And it all started with Laserdiscs.  Join Carlos today at GeekFest Rans as he covers his personal experience with the easily forgotten video format of Laserdiscs.  Was it a failed niche format for movie snobs or the beginning of a new technology that continues to this day?  Actually it was all of the above.

Remember: everything we currently consider obsolete was cutting-edge at some point. 8-tracks, vinyl, older-generation game consoles, VHS, Laserdiscs, past-their-prime computers — we've all used a medium or a piece of tech that looks a little dusty by current standards. But there's a reason we loved them at the time, and why part of us still does. Join Saint and Jim as they take a look back at some bygone technologies, and wax a little nostalgic.

Movie Meltdown - Episode 544 This episode we create our own Fantasy Video Store filled with a staff made up of film characters. Inspired by a weird dream, this concept may be the greatest idea ever... or pure insanity. You be the judge. And while we try to convince people that laserdiscs really are the optimum way to watch a movie, we also mention… The Last Blockbuster, we are totally out of that, a beaded curtain, over there take a left fourteen down, and they can live broadcast it to the public access channels, I remember I was in Morocco, he’s why we had to put a limit on our free popcorn policy, the special room, Wet Wednesdays, the town drunk, Spanish Clint Howard, VHS, eat anyone who tried to break in, call the HR department, multiple old lady customers, your friend with the vest has to leave, both of them have to wear an overcoat, trying to explain to people how cool Jami Gertz is, Mom and Pop, a very loud curtain, very clean, there’s gum stuck to everything, he’s constantly sniffing the movies… and I don’t know why, don’t mess with him… just let him have his popcorn, breaking into the satellite feed, well nobody’s returning their tapes without rewinding them more than once, which movie stars are you ok going to the bathroom with, I didn’t even know I had this movie in stock, living lips and Sour Patch Kids.  “I feel like there’s going to be some wacky hi-jinks at your store.”

In the final episode before their first mid-summer break: It's summertime, and Chris and Holly are moving, which means packing up all of their physical media (and we're talking A LOT of physical media) and that begs the question: Digital or Physical - which medium of media is superior? Or is it all just based on preference? And also, where are those LaserDiscs that were just on this shelf...?!?! ********** Some of the hosts' favourite audio dramas, as promised. Listen to them most anywhere you enjoy podcasts already: 'Limetown' (by Two-Up Productions), 'The Adventure Zone' (by MaximumFun), 'We're Alive', 'We're Alive: Lockdown' and 'We're Alive: Goldrush' (by Wayland Productions), 'The Black Tapes' (by Pacific Northwest Stories) and 'Blood Ties' (by Wondery). --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/housebound/message

Mike Ranger takes you inside his movie library to talk about his collection. Lets rewind to the beginning, back to the days of Betamax and rental stores. Join us as we travel down the long and winding road of Home Video and sort threw stacks of Beta, VHS, DVDs, and Laserdiscs. 

In this episode: Fan Mail from John’s brother, John’s nipples, “My Kingdom of Thirst,” The Ascent of Stan, Justin gets a phone call or two, otters are rapists, “God’s Valentine/A Duke’s Rose,” Justin mentions syphilis, we completely fail to talk about “Frontier Diplomat,” “Candles in the Wood,” and “Mail-Order Sins,” but we do discuss the movie Se7en for like 15 minutes. Justin talks about Laserdiscs even more often than John talk’s about the Pitt pelvis. Justin issues a serious challenge.

In 1086 William the Conqueror commissioned a survey of England that would come to be known as the Domesday Book. 900 years later the BBC would create a similar survey, called the Domesday Project. This new survey spanned two LaserDiscs holding over a gigabyte of data and 200,000 images, most of which were collected by students. It presets an amazing time capsule of the UK in 1986. Also contained within the disks were 3D virtual walks of the country side, and an entire computer generated gallery. So how did such strange technology come together to commemorate a 900 year old manuscript? We now have Advent of Computing merch! http://tee.pub/lic/MKt4UiBp22g

This week Mike and Kelly set a record for tangents prior to the recommendations.  Sorry. Mike’s Recommendation – Technology Connections YouTube Channel This channel is a treasure trove on all sorts of technology tidbits ranging from closed captioning, LEDs, DVD-RAM, Laserdiscs,etc… Mike specifically mentioned the segment on the history of cassette tapes as a “must listen” Kelly’s Recommendation – Walking Dead Our World app Great game play, augmented reality, and zombies (!) in the Pokemon Go meets the Walking Dead app.  Available on Android and iOS, this joint effort between Google Maps and AMC is extremely fun to play.  Game … Continue reading →

This week we chat about fake camping, jerks who brag about pirating movies, Disaster Artist at TIFF, liking movies to be under 90 minutes, Luc Besson, Ben Wheatley, Laserdiscs & VHS, strangely positive distribution changes thanks to having a multiplex nearby, and we forget the name of the late great Michael Parks. We also discuss the movies screening the week of August 4th - 10th: Dawson City: Frozen Time, The Big Sick, A Ghost Story, Hard Boiled, The Ghoul, Raw Meat (aka - Death Line), and we neglect to mention the family matinees of Captain Underpants! Corrections Department - We got her name backwards, it's Rooney Mara, not Mara Rooney

Has critical and box office salvation finally arrived for a DC film? It certainly has. Join us at GeekFest Rants as Carlos, Kyle and Kim review the newest DC superhero film, Wonder Woman. What's the secret of it's success?  The lead actress? the director? the story? Probably all of the above.  About time DC gets a hit on their hands.   Then Carlos takes a nostalgic look back the Laserdisc format especially with Star Wars films.  What were these CD looking, record size, movie discs all about?  And how did the Star Wars franchise contribute to it's special important technological life span?

Face off: Wir nehmen uns „Alien: Covenant“ zur Brust. Dazu noch die „Jahrhundertfrauen“, „Song to Song“, das „Berlin Syndrome“ und ein wenig „Pirates of the Caribbean: Salazars Rache“. Volle Plakat-Power gibt’s mit „Mother“, „Planet der Affen: Survival“, „The Killing of a Scared Deer“ und „It Stains the Sands Red“. Und außerdem News zu „Hellboy“, der „Witcher“-Serie von Netflix und den neuesten Diebstählen im Filmzirkus. Dafür haben wir uns nicht nur ein paar Laserdiscs, Facehugger und die Obstgabel im Winter auf die Couch geholt, sondern auch Journalist Michael Müller.

Sternzeit 70974,2: Laserdiscs sind ein Medium, welches mir vollkommen unbekannt war, bis ich Max kennenlernte. Max sammelt Laserdiscs und weiß eine ganze Menge darüber zu erzählen. Bis es soweit war, mussten wir aber erst einmal über Bürostühle, Ikeamöbel, Loriot, Alfred Tetzlaff und die Flippers reden. Und wer am Ende der Sendung mitgezählt hat, wie oft ich “Ach was!?” gesagt habe, gewinnt einen Rundflug mit dem Herzblatthubschrauber über Köln Hürth.

VHS vs. DVD vs. Blu-Ray. Cassettes vs. CDs vs. MP3s. That's right, today's episode is all about media formats and how the method of consuming content affects what gets made and what we like. We talk about everything from LaserDiscs to gaming consoles to polaroid cameras to the ill-fated Microsoft Zune.

August, 1986 was a landmark for Marvel Comics fans. After years of seeing DC heroes in theaters, Marvel struck back. The very first Marvel Comics movie was released by Lucasfilm, starring actors from Back to the Future, Amadeus, and Top Gun. Before there was Iron Man there was...Howard the Duck!! Now celebrate 30 years of duckiness! Howard the Duck stars Lea Thompson and Ed Gale join Arnie, Marjorie, and Justin on this look back at the movie--and all the collectibles from it! Candy cigars, trading cards, View-Master slides, Laserdiscs, DVDs, video games, and more -- all based on Lucasfilm's adaptation of Howard. They're not just toys, they're Mallardlicious!

Two years after he created LAW & ORDER, Dick Wolf co-created a sci-fi cop show about a macho detective and his sexy robot partner.

But, was MANN & MACHINE canceled too soon? Join your hosts William Bibbiani and Witney Seibold as they poke around inside MANN & MACHINE's chassis, ponder the complexities of artificial intelligence and fantasize about a future world in which donuts are healthy and LaserDiscs are alive and well and still the home video format of choice.

Movie Meltdown - Episode 327 This week we hangout with comedian and movie fan Ian Douglas Terry, as we talk about working as a stand-up comic today versus years ago, translating comedy to film, inappropriate kids movies and then we round things out as we discuss this week's Sofa Theater feature: Forgetting Sarah Marshall. And as we contemplate teaching chimps to fly planes, we also mention... Mad Max: Fury Road, acting wrestlers, Captain Ron, escaping from your hometown, The Dark Crystal, Jason Segel, Malcolm X and 311, hawkmen, How I Met your Mother, Russell Brand, Fast and Furious, I'm just all about references, Return of the Jedi, cell phones killing people, Judd Apatow, Xanadu, that always never works, The Muppets, Paul Rudd, dragging your microphone cord out into the audience, George Miller, Cash for Cats, Slap Shot, terrifying vulture people, Kristen Bell, Ready to Rumble, the punk bank approach, Dracula, Mila Kunis, The Rock, Denver, Neil Patrick Harris, that's the way I wish every woman would look at me, drumming to Rush, Babe, No Holds Barred, alligators and juggalos, I feel like most of my 20's I would view relationships as like - that person was crazy. I did nothing wrong. Like I was the hero. I tried my hardest, they obviously messed up, paint-by-numbers romantic comedy, Linda Cardellini, DIY, Flash Gordon, Nicholas Stoller, improv vs. Scientology, Labyrinth, hypnotism, LaserDiscs and the career arc to becoming a weird boat captain. Spoiler Alert: Full spoilers for Forgetting Sarah Marshall, so watch the movie beforehand - you have been warned! "You have to find what YOUR Dracula musical is... you have to find someone who appreciates what your Dracula musical is."

We take a good, hard look at all the various services that will put your music in iTunes, Spotify and everywhere else. Which ones offer the best deal to release your music? Also: What would we do without '4 chord songs' in our lives? A listener's tweet sparks our conversation.

The Duo covers more ground than an oil spill. Dying industries, Circuit City, LaserDiscs, and why the Marvel Cinematic Universe is better than DC's.
