Join us on an Odyssey through the tours and while we put the diss in Odysseus. Ivy Pochoda is back to flex her classical Greek muscles as we explore the Isle of Lobsbos to find the things that made us gayer for tennis. Hint, it's everything Jelena Ostapenko is doing on social media. Plus we cover the 250s and all the new winners in That's So Hades and we debate what puts the Ick in Icarus more - the Alcaraz cornrows or Taylor Townsend's mixed doubles announcement for the US Open. We also talk about the Trojan Horse that could be the new genetic testing system implemented by the WTA and offer up our solution. And we play Yes Gawd where we match top players to Greek gods. You don't want to Artemis it.

In Part 1 of our discussion on Homer's Odyssey, we welcome translator Emily Wilson to discuss Odysseus as a complicated character, the roles of women and divine beings in the poem, and the centuries-old stories within stories that pose questions of hospitality, power, fatherhood, and time still relevant today. Part 2, coming tomorrow (8/4), will center Wilson's reaction to Christopher Nolan's recent film. Emily Wilson is a professor of classical studies at the University of Pennsylvania. She has been named a fellow of the American Academy in Rome, a Guggenheim Fellow, and a MacArthur Fellow. In addition to Homer's Iliad and Odyssey, she has also published translations of Sophocles, Euripides, and Seneca. She lives in Philadelphia.To learn more or purchase a copy of the Norton Library edition of The Odyssey, go to https://wwnorton.com/books/9780393417937. Learn more about the Norton Library series at https://wwnorton.com/norton-library.Have questions or suggestions for the podcast?

Ben and Rob are joined this week by a very special third mast, guest host Amber Poppit for an episode covering Christopher Nolan's The Odyssey, the $250 million, 100% IMAX 70mm adaptation of Homer's original road trip gone wrong epic.Starring Matt Damon as Odysseus, the King of Ithaca who spends a decade failing to simply go home, alongside Tom Holland as his son Telemachus and Anne Hathaway as long suffering wife Penelope, The Odyssey rounds out its absurdly stacked cast with Robert Pattinson, Lupita Nyong'o, Charlize Theron as Circe, and Zendaya as Athena; the goddess whose entire arc has the internet arguing about whether she's a deity, a vision, or a guilt trip with cheekbones. It is, depending on who you ask, either Nolan's most ambitious swing yet or yet another film maker desperately trying to get Matt Damon home.Ben, Rob, and Amber dig into the "shot entirely on IMAX film" claim and what that actually means for a movie shot across real-world locations instead of a soundstage, the casting choices that had half of Film Twitter cheering and the other half frothing at the mouth, what this interpretation of Homer's The Odyssey is doing for culture and cinema as a whole, Ben proves without a doubt that we live in a time of apparent magic and the 3 embark on a journey almost as epic as The Odyssey itself.

Hello everyone and welcome back to another episode of Unseen Incidents. This week we're looking at Real Madrid's big summer rebuild and their reappointment of Jose Mourinho. After two years without a trophy, it's clear that something needed to change, but is this going to fix anything? Is Rodri the solution? Is Diomande a worthy heir to Vini? And is there any way this team can defend at an elite level?Then we open up the Burn Book, which this week features linen shirts, Classics and the response to The Odyssey, and cleaning leather.If you enjoy the podcast please consider subscribing at patreon.com/Patrickvs!

Send us Fan MailWelcome back to Two Kens with my good friend, Ken Fong.Every so often we record a conversation that challenges us as much as it challenges our listeners. This is one of those episodes.We begin with a hilarious - but surprisingly insightful - clip from Leslie Jones that opens the door to an honest conversation about race, the myth of colorblindness, code-switching, white fragility, and the stories America tells itself.Then we turn to Christopher Nolan's The Odyssey, where Odysseus is portrayed not as an untouchable hero but as a man scarred by war. It raises powerful questions about trauma, empathy, and whether compassion still has a place in a culture that rewards certainty.Finally, we welcome musician Joseph Tseng, whose remarkable album Shanghai: An American Story explores immigration, identity, family, and belonging.Ken and I aren't trying to win arguments. We're trying to ask better questions, believing that curiosity, empathy, and honest conversation still have the power to change us.Robin D'Angelo - White Fragility: Why It's So Hard for White People to Talk About RacismLeslie Jones on Colorblind White GuysSupport the showBecome a Patron - Click on the link to learn how you can become a Patron of the show.

Christopher Nolan's The Odyssey serves as a massive anti-war critique of the insatiable appetites of men and the erosion of trust.From useless suitors to disgraced conquerors, and from Agamemnon's bloody fate to the dishonour trailing Odysseus' crew everywhere they go, the film isn't subtle about its themes.We also talk about the terrifyingly atmospheric hell scene, contrast the stunning visual spectacle with its rushed pacing in parts, and question why the dialogue swings wildly between cryptic symbolism and super basic hand-holding.—Hosted by Akhil Arora and Devika Sreekumar, The Long Take is fully bootstrapped.

Matt Damon has faced some interesting foes before: The Bellagio, Mars, Carmine Scarpaglia, and Teddy KGB, to name a few. But this time, he's met his match! Luke & Corrye get way too serious about this beauty of a film from the incomparable Christopher Nolan. They spear the ridiculous criticism out there, while grappling with their own beefs, before expressing their bewilderment over how Nolan slung together another impeccable piece of art. 

C'est l'un des plus grands événements de l'année ciné 2026 : Christopher Nolan adapte L'Odyssée d'Homère, et on en parle forcément dans 24FPS, le podcast ciné avec ou sans spoiler !

Papa, Hans, and Harry debate the merits of Popeye's chicken wings and ponder Odysseus' misfortunes in Christopher Nolan's latest cinematic offering.

There was SO much to say about Christopher Nolan's The Odyssey that we couldn't fit it into one episode — we tried, we failed miserably, and honestly we're thrilled about it, so you're getting a two-parter.This is Part 1, where we set sail into the three-hour epic everyone's been waiting for. We get into the Trojan Horse reimagining that traces back to the Troy movie Nolan never made, and the brutal sacrifice that recontextualises the whole opening. We defend the Cyclops (hear us out — on a rewatch, he's the victim).We break down the slow, skin-crawling transformation scene that out-brutals every battle. And we get into why the first woman to translate The Odyssey, absolutely hates this film — the missing sex, the grim food, all of it. It's epic, brutal and occasionally unhinged. Part 2 drops soon.TAKE THE SPILL QUIZ HERETHE END BITS Find and follow us on socials: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thespillpodcast/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@thespillpod Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/thespillpodcast/ Read all the latest entertainment news on Mamamia: https://mamamia.com.au/entertainment/Support Independent Women’s Media.

We wrestle with the moral cost of war through a modern Odyssey lens, especially what it means to see the divine image in people you might be ordered to kill. We ask whether “necessary” violence can ever be clean, and why the ones who protect everyone else often carry scars the rest of us never have to bear. • Athena's beheading as a symbol of desecration and conscience • war as ugly even when defense feels necessary • Zeus's law of hospitality set against survival and self-defense • the fog of war and our limited moral vision • Plato's Euthyphro as a test for confident moral claims • the “dark knight” role and taking blame for the public good • Oppenheimer parallels and the burden of consequential choices • film critique on flattened characters while still recommending it Please, if you're enjoying this content, give this video a like, hit that subscribe button, and most importantly, if you can, ring that bell. You can go see the full thing over on our Patreon right now.

Send us Fan MailWhat can The Odyssey teach us about leadership when every available choice carries consequences?Chris is joined by Juliet Seuss for a different kind of episode: a conversation about Christopher Nolan's The Odyssey and the questions it raises about responsibility, power, guilt, and shame. They examine whether Odysseus accepts responsibility for the people who follow him, how Penelope exercises power within an unjust system, and what Sinon's story reveals about the shame society places on marginalized people.Along the way, they explore one of leadership's hardest realities: sometimes there is no good decision—only the least-bad one. What matters is not whether a leader can prevent every bad outcome, but how they respond to circumstances they cannot fully control.This conversation contains major spoilers for The Odyssey.

We're living in truly crazy times, and things that would not even be remotely controversial ten years ago now bring ire to certain parts of society. A while ago, the idea of Christopher Nolan filming an adaptation of THE ODYSSEY would bring universal interest, but now any perceived ""woke" decision brings multitudes of vitriol and "discourse".Today we take a look at this film on it's own merits, and see how a myth that has evolved through centuries is recontextualized for our day and age. Join us as we aura farm with Agamemnon and take a journey with Odysseus to Ithaca as we encounter war, trauma, acceptance, and forgiveness on 70mm IMAX (none of us saw it on this format). • • •TRIAD Of The FORCE is a STAR WARS+ podcast hosted by Gus, Nani, Nad, & Chase—Puerto Rican and queer creators sharing deep dives, and heartfelt conversations from a galaxy far, far away.

Ten years of wandering, condensed into a sprint. This time around, we are bringing you a very-special retelling of Homer's epic poem, The Odyssey. It's high on energy but also delightfully low on patience. Because let's be honest: ten years is a long time to spend lost at sea, and we have a podcast to run. Behind the Scenes of "A Condensed-Space Odyssey" Our actors are ready, the sound effects are mostly accurate, and everything is set to go. Well, except for some last-minute edits made strictly for time-management purposes. Clinton is sure the cast won't mind. After all, who wouldn't be thrilled about having their grand theatrical moments reduced to brief cameos? Our story centers on a hero of the Trojan War, Odysseus. Right now, he's just trying to get home to Ithaca. But a petty Poseidon and a very love-struck nymph have other plans. You'll feel the ocean spray during his turbulent raft ride through monstrous whirlpools, hear the beckoning call of rock-loving sirens, and almost taste the tragic consequences of munching on flowers and farm animals.

Christopher Nolan's new Odyssey has revived the world's fascination with the oldest homecoming story in Western literature. But why does the journey of Odysseus still resonate so deeply—and what can it teach us about Parshat Eikev, Jewish history, and the meaning of coming home? The answer lies not in the voyage itself, but in what begins after we arrive home.

V počtu prodaných lístků je film Odyssea režiséra Christophera Nolana je jednoznačný úspěch. „Jde o velmi dobře provedené zpracování klasického hrdinského eposu – ekonomicky, řemeslně i umělecky,” chválí filmová publicistka Julie Šafová. „V Nolanově filmu vidím unaveného starého bílého muže, který se vleče domů a trápí se tím, co v životě způsobil. To není Odysseus, jakého mám v mysli,” oponuje kreativní producent Tomáš Baldýnský.

Khi phim Odyssey đang làm mưa làm gió tại các rạp chiếu phim trên khắp thế giới, thì có một phim đang chiếu miễn phí trên SBS On Demand nói về chuyến trở về của người anh hùng thành Troy - Odysseus - của đạo diễn người Ý - Uberto Pasolini, đó là phim The Return – Trở Về - với sự tham gia của hai diễn viên gạo cội Ralph Fiennes và Juliette Binoche.

Ten years of wandering, condensed into a sprint. This time around, we are bringing you a very-special retelling of Homer's epic poem, The Odyssey. It's high on energy but also delightfully low on patience. Because let's be honest: ten years is a long time to spend lost at sea, and we have a podcast to run. Behind the Scenes of "A Condensed-Space Odyssey" Our actors are ready, the sound effects are mostly accurate, and everything is set to go. Well, except for some last-minute edits made strictly for time-management purposes. Clinton is sure the cast won't mind. After all, who wouldn't be thrilled about having their grand theatrical moments reduced to brief cameos? Our story centers on a hero of the Trojan War, Odysseus. Right now, he's just trying to get home to Ithaca. But a petty Poseidon and a very love-struck nymph have other plans. You'll feel the ocean spray during his turbulent raft ride through monstrous whirlpools, hear the beckoning call of rock-loving sirens, and almost taste the tragic consequences of munching on flowers and farm animals. And in a faction of the time Christopher Nolan took to tell the story! Can a hero survive when his script is cut? The sails are set, the wind is in the bag, and the clock is ticking.

Nathan and Ollie set sail for the shores of Troy to dig into Wolfgang Petersen's 2004 sword-and-sandals epic. They break down Brad Pitt's brooding Achilles, Eric Bana's honor-bound Hector, and that infamous wooden horse, weighing where the film soars, where it stumbles, and how much liberty it takes with Homer.They also give their verdict on Christopher Nolan's The Odyssey, having caught the summer's biggest cinematic event on the big screen. Shot entirely on IMAX 70mm film with a reported $250 million budget and starring Matt Damon as Odysseus, it's Nolan's most ambitious project yet. The guys share their honest impressions and debate how it stacks up against Troy as Hollywood's latest trip into Greek myth.

Kenny and Mike discuss and spot faith elements in Christopher Nolan's latest epic film, The Odyssey. Matt Damon, Anne Hathaway, and Tom Holland lead a strong cast that also includes Zendaya, Robert Pattinson, Charlize Theron, and John Leguizamo. Both Kenny and Mike think John Leguizamo's performance may result in an Academy Award Nomination for Supporting Actor.  Both the film and Christopher Nolan are most likely to be nominated as well.  Filmed with IMAX 70mm cameras and shown in a variety of formats including IMAX, which have sold out for a year, the The Odyssey fits the epic nature and scope of Homer's foundational literary work. Though not an IMAX screening Mike and Kenny shared their experience seeing the film in 70mm film rather than digital screening. Mike shared his appreciation for the rich contrast presented in the low light photography the IMAX film stock allows. Other technical aspects included the use of practical effects including forced perspective.  Kenny questioned why Nolan did not choose more accurate costumes and other production design elements as well as some more modern words and phrase that took him out of the film briefly. Faith Elements Reflected: Among the many elements of faith spotted in the story, Kenny discusses the very nature of faith from a Christian perspective is as an odyssey as one journeys through seasons of struggle and joy as we travel toward our spiritual home, the Kingdom of God. Calypso's instruction to Odysseus to surrender to and trust the ocean waves and tides rather than struggle against them is akin to surrendering to God's faithfulness, grace, and power rather than reliance of one's own abilities and power against the ooverwhelming power of sin and evil. Athena's care, presence, and guidance to Odysseus reflects God's presence and involvement through the Holy Spirit in the lives of individuals as well as the work of God in transforming the broken world into the Kingdom of God. Zeus's Law of Hospitality echoes the Hebrew Bible and the New Testament teachings on hospitality, especially the welcoming and caring for strangers and even enemies, Abram's hosting of Angels, Jesus's parable of the Good Samaritan. The need for humility in living a faithful life. Echoing the teaching of Paul in Philippians 2 to imitate the humility of Jesus. Odysseus's boasting set the stage for many of the struggles in his journey home.     

Nathan Douglas and Thomas Mirus review Christopher Nolan's adaptation of Homer's Odyssey. It is not necessarily a bad thing if an adaptation doesn't reproduce the precise worldview of its source material - an artist makes his own work of art, not a scholarly translation. The movie is not a deliberate subversion of its source material, as many assumed. It is Nolan's honest personal reflection on what the poem means to him. But he does view the story through the lens of modern concerns which, while by no means false or unworthy of exploration or even totally incompatible with Homer's story, result in a less interesting version of Odysseus and a less coherent but overly didactic interpretation of the events depicted.

We are wrapping up our 2026 Summer Blockbusters lineup with the grandest, most ambitious titan of the season: Nolan's massive, star-studded adaptation of The Odyssey. Shot entirely on new IMAX film cameras across global locations, this 172 minute mythic action epic is easily the biggest cinematic event of July.To fuel ourselves for a ten year journey home, Mackenzie is serving up a refreshing custom cocktail - The Lotus Flower - but it packs a punch strong enough to make you forget your own homeland.This week, we dive into how Nolan takes Homer's foundational, 3,000 year old poem and turns it into a high-stakes blockbuster. We discuss Matt Damon's fiercely physical performance as Odysseus, capturing a king who is a brilliant, wily strategist but entirely worn down by war and cosmic obstacles. We gush over the incredible ensemble cast, highlighting Anne Hathaway's fierce, resilient Penelope, Tom Holland's raw and restless turn as Telemachus, the scene-stealing presence of Zendaya as Athena, and Charlize Theron as Calypso. We also break down the film's spectacular, practical effects heavy encounters, from the terrifying scale of the Cyclops Polyphemus to the haunting sound design of the Sirens, and analyze how Hoyte van Hoytema's breathtaking cinematography makes ancient myth feel completely immediate and real.If you have your tickets booked for the nearest 70mm IMAX screen, or if you just want to hear us debate how Nolan managed to make a three hour ancient Greek poem feel like a relentless sci-fi thriller, this is the episode you need. We are blending our awe for a master filmmaker at the absolute peak of his craft with our usual casual banter, making this the true, definitive grand finale of our summer blockbuster coverage.

With the release of Christopher Nolan's adaptation of the Odyssey, it seems like everyone's been talking about a 3,000-year-old epic again. But my guest thinks this ancient tale offers a framework for understanding our modern lives that you probably haven't heard before.Patrick Deneen is a professor of political science and the author of American Odyssey. Today on the show, Patrick argues that Odysseus embodies a tension that has defined the human experience, and especially the American experience: we're both home-seeking and exploring, rooted and restless. We long to settle down somewhere, yet we're equally driven to push beyond the horizon in search of something new. Patrick shares how Alexis de Tocqueville made this observation about our country two centuries ago, how Odysseus navigates the temptation to become both more than human and less than human, and the surprising act Patrick thinks is the most heroic thing Odysseus does. We end our conversation with the idea that having a home can give us the confidence to explore, or as David Brooks put it, "All of life is a series of daring explorations from a secure base."Resources Related to the PodcastAoM Article: 3 Lessons From Homer's OdysseyAoM Podcast #337: What Homer's Odyssey Can Teach Us TodayDemocracy in America by Alexis de Tocqueville"Ulysses" by Alfred, Lord TennysonConnect With Patrick DeneenPatrick's faculty pagePatrick's websiteAmerican Odyssey's page on Creed and Culture's website0:00 Intro & sponsor plugs0:41 Patrick Deneen's American Odyssey & Nolan's film2:28 Nolan's changes to Odysseus's character4:56 Dante's Odysseus in hell7:33 Why Odyssey keeps drawing Patrick back13:02 The most American text: home-seeking vs exploring17:15 Tocqueville's restless Americans20:03 Restlessness as source of American unhappiness21:03 Odysseus vs the temptation to be more/less than human26:14 That temptation in modern American life31:26 Odysseus's underworld talk with Achilles39:41 What today's Americans can take from that41:24 Does Odysseus stay home?

We talked about: the teachers who made us both writers; reading Wallace Stevens's The Snowman — out loud, in full — and the seventh grade class that made Liza stand in the snow for an hour to understand it; Hemingway, Ezra Pound, and the fascism problem; what happened to Columbia's English Department and why it matters for publishing; why Marxism is fundamentally an ideology of resentment (Bertrand Russell said it 100 years ago); the novel Yesteryear and what it reveals about contemporary literary self-righteousness; why writing characters who disagree with you is the whole point; the Emily Wilson translation of the Odyssey and what "a complicated man" does to Odysseus's character; and Christopher Nolan's Odyssey film — specifically the Cyclops scene he cut, why it was the scene that defined Odysseus, and why its absence drains the heroism from the entire story.

Host David Horton interviews Clay about Christopher Nolan's new blockbuster film on Homer's Odyssey. How closely does it follow the Homeric original? What changes in theme and character did Nolan make to turn the ancient poem into a film for our time? What should we make of the culture war dispute over the casting of a Black woman as Helen of Troy and a transgender actor as Sinon of the Wooden Horse episode? Since Homer makes the story a triumphant homecoming of the last of the heroes of Troy, why does Nolan make Odysseus a man of regret for the role he played in ending the heroic age and bringing on the long Greek Dark Ages? Is Matt Damon an adequate Odysseus? How about Charlize Theron as the goddess Calypso? What themes was Nolan attempting to wrestle with, and how successful was he? Does it help to have a deep background in the Homeric epics, or is it best to see the film with little or no familiarity with the epic tradition? This episode was recorded on July 23, 2026.  

Subscribe now for the full episode. Joel Christensen, professor of classics at the CUNY Graduate Center, joins Danny and Derek for a discussion about Christopher Nolan's adaptation of The Odyssey. They talk about the scholarly debate over Homer as an idea rather than an individual; the mythic Trojan War; guilt and moral responsibility in Homer's Odysseus vs. Nolan's; the roles of Penelope, Telemachus, and Agamemnon; the film's monsters, casting choices, and depictions of the gods; and how Nolan's ending departs from that of the original.  Be sure to check out Joel's book Why Odysseus?

First mate Steve Hayes strides across the deck, grinning maniacally at the cowering crew. “Mine” he crows to himself. “Mine! The HMS Remnant is finally mine! Muahahaha!” The crew, downcast, is near despair. Then suddenly, all eyes turn to the gangplank. Haggard, sunburned, stricken, and emaciated, Jonah Goldberg stumbles onto the deck, takes Hayes by the collar, and gasps, “Sand. Nothing but sand.” After recovering down below, Captain Goldberg is back at the helm and ready to dive into the Grand Canyon, advertising, Vegas, Christopher Nolan's Odyssey, the Christianization thesis, black Helen, DSA, voter turnout, the stupidity of abolishing the Senate, “unfettered capitalism,” Hayek v. Friedman, conservative liberal or liberal conservative, Teddy Roosevelt, and postliberal collapse.  Show Notes: —John Podhoretz on The Odessey —Tom Holland on The Odyssey  —Matt Walsh tweet about The Odessey  —Charlie Cooke on abolishing the Senate —Jonah in Commentary:  “Socialism is so Hot Right Now” —Newsweek: “We Are All Socialist Now” —Escalon Insights poll on medicare for all —Live Sarah Isgur Remnant —Ron Bailey Remnant —Ask Me Anything Remnant  —Jonah's book Liberal Fascism  —Live Yuval Levin Remnant —Irving Kristol: “The American Revolution as a Successful Revolution” The Remnant is a production of ⁠The Dispatch⁠, a digital media company covering politics, policy, and culture from a nonpartisan perspective.
