The prophesied right wing sellout moment has finally arrived. Leyla and Aaron, in an attempt to prepare for Francis Ford Coppola's "Megalopolis," have decided to dive into a classic of objectivist philosophy, Ayn Rand's 1943 doorstopper, "The Fountainhead." Follow us down the rabbit hole as we discuss a high schooler's ideology, explain why objectivism is appealing to lonely kids, and cut the novel in half by asking these dudes to just kiss already.  --- Our theme song is "Obsolete" by Keshco, from the album "Filmmaker's Reference Kit Volume 2."

A conversation with American classicist, military historian, and conservative political commentator Victor Davis Hanson.We discuss:Why Epaminondas remains one of the most underrated commanders in Greek history, and how the loss of Plutarch's Life of Epaminondas has obscured his legacyThe pivotal liberation of Thebes in 378 BC: how a small band of conspirators overthrew the Spartan-backed oligarchy and sparked a democratic revolutionEpaminondas's strategic masterstroke at Leuctra — the deep oblique phalanx on the left — and how it shattered 200 years of Spartan military supremacyHow freeing the Messenian Helots and building Megalopolis, Mantinea, and Messene permanently encircled and emasculated Sparta as a great powerThe fatal miscalculation of 335 BC: why Thebes revolted against Alexander on the basis of a false rumor, and how every potential ally abandoned themThe recurring pattern of doomed civilizations — from Thebes to Carthage to Constantinople — that share delusions about allies, enemies, and their own declineWhat ancient history reveals about America's current strengths and vulnerabilities, from demographic pressures to the China threatSubscribe to the Cost of Glory newsletter for detailed maps, images, and analysis of this pivotal moment in ancient history: https://costofglory.substack.com/Get in touch at:Website: https://costofglory.comX: https://x.com/costofglory

Your co-hosts take a detour to explore the dark side of Francis Ford Coppola's self-funded dream project that was nearly 50 years in the making. Sex, drugs and Megalon!

I've been doing this for fifty years! Welcome to pcmc, your one-stop-shop for non-toxic fandom and pop culture ephemera. On today's episode, Mike is joined again by good friend of the show, Nadia Kader.Mike and Nadia sat down to discuss Megadoc (2025), the feature-length documentary that chronicles the disastrous production of Francis Ford Coppola's Megalopolis (2024). Neither Mike nor Nadia have seen Megalopolis, but it's not really a prerequisite for enjoying this film. If you want to see an out-of-touch artist you once admired lose a battle of wits to Shia LaBeouf, this is the film for you! And this is the podcast for you! It's hilariously tragic and a must see for cinema lovers.

They say lightning never strikes twice, but Hollywood keeps proving otherwise. In this budget-busting pair of episodes, Shane and Duncan return to the cinematic graveyard for a fresh look at some of Hollywood's most spectacular recent failures: the tangled mess of Megalopolis, the glossy fizzle of Tron: Ares, and a few other high-budget disasters that left studios scrambling. It's a behind-the-scenes look at big swings, bigger misses, and the brutal math of modern moviemaking.   ~ Support the show by becoming a Midnight Minion, Menace, or Maniac, and unlock exclusive bonus content over at PATREON ~ Join the MFFI community and vote on episode topics via DISCORD ~ Join the Midnight Masses!

This edition of the IPS DEPROGRAM, recorded on February 2, 2026, explores the intersections of ancient holidays, systemic media deception, and the "manufacturing of history" through space programs and entertainment. The host argues that the public is being conditioned through predictive programming and manufactured news events to accept a controlled, "hyper-reality".The Ritual of Groundhog Day and Candlemas: The host connects Groundhog Day to the Christian holiday Candlemas and the pagan holiday Imbolc, marking the midpoint between the solstices. He dismisses the groundhog as a "ceremonial prop," claiming the weather outcome is actually determined by a human committee.Moon Mission Skepticism (Artemis II vs. Apollo): Drawing a parallel between the current Artemis II mission and the Apollo missions, the host questions why modern space agencies lack the confidence to land on the moon today if they achieved it decades ago. He posits that the original missions were "manufactured miracles" and that NASA is currently waiting for more sophisticated generative AI and LED technology to pull off a more convincing fake landing.Predictive Programming and Fictional Counterparts: The broadcast analyzes how world leaders and events are foreshadowed in movies. For instance, characters in films like The Madness or Megalopolis are seen as media counterparts to figures like Elon Musk and Donald Trump, used to habituate the public to specific narratives like assassinations or "mind viruses".The Rebrand of "Trutherville" and Content Theft: The host critiques the "alt-media" ecosystem, specifically targeting "content thieves" on platforms like X who regurgitate information from smaller channels without credit. He emphasizes the need for a new branch of media outside of both controlled mainstream and alternative outlets.Systemic Fakery and Psychological Condition: A significant portion of the show discusses how hoaxes—such as the Charlie Kirk "assassination" event—are used as litmus tests for public discernment. The host argues that the public is trapped in a "Mystery Science Theater 3000" scenario, forced to watch "bad science fiction" until they lose their ability to distinguish reality from theatre."Obviously, the groundhog is just a ceremonial prop. It doesn't really determine anything. It's just tradition.""My theory as to why they haven't landed on the moon again in all these decades is that the rear screen projection wouldn't fool anybody today.""History is lies agreed upon... Space with its angels, which we call aliens, is an acceptable version of heaven that everybody agrees on.""The correct answer is entertainment is synchronized with fake news events... they're manufacturing history.""We're collectively in the Mystery Science Theater 3000. Forced by evil scientists to watch bad B-movies until we break."Clarifying Question: Are you looking for a more detailed analysis of the specific "number codes" mentioned (like 33 and 113) for a research project, or should I focus on the media deconstruction aspect for a general summary?Topic BreakdownNotable Quotes

MEGADOC (2025) - The Film Buff Megalopolis Documentary Review

Tad discusses Megalopolis and more with writer, editor, all round industry veteran Chris Ryall.

Cherry, Divert, and Inundate lead us to new doo wop music, Pez Dispensary, fork in the road, Megalopolis, spam emails, and more.New episodes every Tuesday.Editing by: Julia WD HarrisonTheme by: Arne Parrott Logo by: Casey BordenSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

In 1991, Nelson founded Sound Dogs, a studio that has since grown into Canada's premier sound editing, recording, and design company with hundreds of film and television titles to their credit. Nelson has worked with renowned directors such as Darren Aronofsky on Requiem for a Dream and Guillermo del Toro on The Shape of Water, which earned Nelson both Oscar and BAFTA nominations. Nelson's other film work includes: The Breadwinner, Dual, Priscilla, Nutcrackers, Francis Ford Coppola's Megalopolis, and Guillermo del Toro's Frankenstein. 

First pod of the year and we just saw the Mike Figgis documentary "Megadoc" about the making of Francis Ford Coppola's troubled epic "Megalopolis". This leads to a big chat about aging as artists, delusion, and the vulnerability of taking big swings.Take a deeper dive into our world at https://weirdertogether.substack.com

Mike Thompson and Rob St. Mary join Mike to step into the rubble, rhetoric, and Roman cosplay of Megalopolis, Francis Ford Coppola's self-financed, forty-years-in-the-making cinematic fever dream. A film obsessed with power, legacy, architecture, and Great Men Thinking Great Thoughts, Megalopolis feels less like a movie than a manifesto—one that demands to be taken seriously while daring you to laugh at it. Cesar Catalina (Adam Driver), the troubled genius nobody appreciates (write what you know, Francis), strides through a New Rome built on vibes, speeches, and a miracle substance called Megalon. The episode also explores Megadoc, Mike Figgis's fly-on-the-wall documentary which attempts to chronicle the chaos, conviction, and sheer force of will behind Coppola's production. Seen together, the film and the documentary form a portrait of an artist betting everything—money, reputation, legacy—on a single idea. Love it, hate it, or remain profoundly confused by it, Megalopolis refuses to be ignored. And once it gets into your head, it doesn't leave.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-projection-booth-podcast--5513239/support.Become a supporter of The Projection Booth at http://www.patreon.com/projectionbooth

This is our final film review of Season 7, and we decided to go out with a bang: a bizarre labor of love that provokes as much confusion as it does admiration. A film fifty years in the making, equal parts science fiction, political allegory, and personal manifesto from one of the greatest living directors. It's proof that some people still haven't processed 9/11, and quite possibly the only place you'll see an Asian Elvis impersonator singing “America the Beautiful.” It's Megalopolis, written, directed, produced, and funded by the legendary Francis Ford Coppola.Check us out on...Twitter @TSMoviePodFacebook: Time SensitiveInstagram: @timesensitivepodcastGrab some Merch at TeePublicBig Heads Media 

Japan's political scene is changing—from new parties rising in visibility to historic moments in national leadership—so the Krewe is bringing you a timely crash course. Political analyst Tobias Harris (Founder & Principal of Japan Foresight) joins the pod to break down the foundations of Japan's government system, how it compares to the U.S., and why voters view politics the way they do. We explore the major and emerging parties shaping the landscape, the issues driving debate today, and how international pressures and global events influence domestic policy. Tobias also sheds light on the media's role in shaping public perception and political accountability.------ About the Krewe ------The Krewe of Japan Podcast is a weekly episodic podcast sponsored by the Japan Society of New Orleans.

There's zero doubt, Absolute Batman Annual #1 will be one of the year's most talked-about comics. Featuring three stories by Daniel Warren Johnson, Mike Spicer, James Harren, Dave Stewart, Meredith McClaren, and Clayton Cowles, this hefty comic centers on the early Absolute Universe adventures of Bruce Wayne, revealing how that chonky Batmobile came to be, and just how Black Mask's party animals first encountered the Dark Knight. We read the comic a couple of weeks back, and the instant we flipped that last page, we were compelled to get Daniel Warren Johnson into a Zoom room. Thankfully, he obliged. Johnson's untitled story makes up the bulk of the Absolute Batman Annual. It propels Absolute Batman against a white supremacist horde, showcasing some of the most brutal action from the ongoing series so far, while doing so in a way that questions that violence's effectiveness. As Daniel Warren Johnson has showcased in other comics like Murder Falcon, Do a Powerbomb!, and his recent run on Transformers, badass, jaw-dropping visuals are only half his might as a creator. DWJ breaks hearts as often as he breaks bones. “It's in my blood and it's boiling, and I have to get it out.” In an exclusive conversation with Comic Book Couples Counseling, Johnson explains how his tale in the Absolute Batman Annual came to pass. We discuss his reluctance to contribute to the world so expertly crafted by Scott Snyder and Nick Dragotta, and how one single image eventually caused him to put everything he had into this character and universe. Daniel Warren Johnson tells us why supplying only compelling, catastrophic action isn't enough for him as a storyteller. He requires more than an exclamation point to climax his stories. He needs a question. Absolute Batman Annual is now available from DC Comics. Make sure you're following Daniel Warren Johnson on Blue Sky, Instagram, and his Website.

We all crave a good meal. The challenge is savoring it once it's placed before you. Kelley Jones and Matt Wagner have wickedly, and delightfully, discovered a way to make Bram Stoker's Dracula not one good dish, but three...and possibly four and five. For the last several years, they've transformed the classic vampire novel into a feast impossible to gobble down in one sitting. By taking throwaway sentences in the book and building two graphic novels out of them (Dracula Book I: The Impaler, Dracula Book II: The Brides), they've miraculously extended their love affair with Vlad, and ours in the process as well. Now, with Dracula Book III: The Count, which only has a week left on Kickstarter, Jones and Kelley properly excavate Bram Stoker's book. This third entry tackles the iconic plot, but only from Count Dracula's perspective. We all know this story from Jonathan Harker, Mina, and Van Helsing's point of view, but how did the vicious beast at the center of their fear experience the whole endeavor? No more letters. Only the Count's singular, hungry howl of self. We've read and watched many Dracula adaptations, but none as exhaustive and creative as this. As a result, this week's podcast had to match Jones and Wagner's studious passion. All together, we dig deep into their previous entry, Dracula Book II: The Brides. We discuss how, in chaining themselves to Dracula's perspective, they create unparalleled empathy for the monster and his godless pursuits. Is there danger in that? Again, Dracula: The Count only has seven days left on its Kickstarter campaign. Please visit the crowdfunding project by clicking HERE.

Transplanting the Doughboys from one medium to another demands collaborators with a firm grasp on both worlds. Podcasters Mike Mitchell and Nick Wiger know their realm, but require a few comic book maniacs to hurl them confidently into the sequential playground. Enter writer Alex Firer and artist Fred C. Stressing (also, colorist Meg Casey). Not only did Firer and Stresing grow up stewing in comics, but they've spent the last several years working together on the Rick and Morty books from Oni Press. They bring with them a strong passion for Harvey Kurtzman, Grant Morrison, and Krazy Kat. They're equally pickled in Doughboys lore, and after a little back and forth with Mitch and Wiger, could decipher the podcast into the epic quest called Doughboys: The Comic Book - Mitch and Wiger Chew America - Crisis on Infinite Girths. Last week, we spoke with Mike Mitchell and Nick Wiger about how they found their way into a comic book, and this week, we're speaking with Alex Firer and Fred C. Stresing about how they helped make that wild fantasy a reality. Also, as a result of hosting the Harvey Awards at New York Comic Con last weekend, we're stewing in Harvey Kurtzman's world ourselves, and his influence is easily identified in the Doughboys Comic Book. It's a joy to discuss madcap comedy, especially the funny book variety, with these two. Make sure you're following the Doughboys on your favorite podcast app, or just click here. Follow Alex Firer on Blue Sky and Instagram. Follow Fred C. Stresing on Blue Sky and Instagram.
