Vegas, la ville de tous les possibles Ça aurait dû se passer comme ça : Las Vegas, tout allait être possible. Jack et Morgan auraient pris quelques trips et autres substances chimiques bien nerveuses et se seraient retrouvés quelque part sans savoir comment. Mais c'est pas du tout comme ça que ça s'est passé… Remerciements : Silvain Gire, Mathieu Sapin, les éditions Dargaud, Razamé de la Crackers, John Wise, Jesse North, Ben Fong-Torres, Guadalupe Layz, Tray, Ali, le gang des GX1000 et Paul Gresham. GONZO PARANOEn mars 2023, le dessinateur de bande dessinée Morgan Navarro embarque le reporter Jack Souvant dans un road trip aux Etats-Unis, sur les traces du sulfureux journaliste de la contre-culture américaine Hunter S Thompson. Mort en 2005, Thompson avait en son temps inventé le concept de « journalisme Gonzo », un journalisme engagé, raconté à la première personne. Il est aussi célèbre pour son roman Las Vegas Parano et son goût prononcé pour les excès en tous genres. Morgan est un fou de la culture américaine, du skate, du LSD et se prend pour Raoul Duke dans Las Vegas Parano, interprété par Johnny Depp.Jack, curieux mais pas amoureux de l'Amérique, tente de comprendre la fascination de Morgan pour ce pays. Dégainant son micro en toute occasion, il enregistre son compagnon dessinateur de jour comme de nuit, tout en dressant un portrait de l'Amérique post Trump, façon Gonzo : « la subjectivité est totale, le sujet n'est qu'un prétexte… ». Des heures de voiture, entre montagnes et déserts : Aspen, Denver, Las Vegas, Los Angeles, San Francisco… Jack et Morgan croisent la route de cow-boys enthousiastes, de Navajos engagés, d'un house-keeper désabusé, d'un vendeur complotiste de viande séchée à l'Alien, d'une militante de la NRA et d'anciens camarades de Thompson abîmés par les années… Que reste-t-il du rêve, ou plutôt du cauchemar américain ? C'est ce qu'ils vont tenter de comprendre.

E.T. et les Navajos Ça aurait dû se passer comme ça : Anita Thompson aurait invité Jack et Morgan à fumer de l'herbe chez elle, Morgan aurait dessiné tout ce qu'il voyait et ils auraient fait l'interview du siècle.

We can't live like every day is a vacation – we'd probably die (and we'd definitely blow through our savings). So most of our days on the road are like real life, with a vacation thrown in here and there. Back in more optimistic times, we had planned to spend my 40th birthday in Vegas. But then things went weird again. What was it like in Vegas in September, 2021? We'll tell you what we saw. 1:26 - Why Vegas? 4:16 - Checking in like Raoul Duke 7:57 - How things felt both the same and different 17:36 - All the ways Nevada is an underrated state 20:18 - Camping around Vegas Link to the wave speech from Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas: https://www.goodreads.com/quotes/1074-strange-memories-on-this-nervous-night-in-las-vegas-five This episode was written, recorded, edited, and produced by Lisa McNamara, with additional recording and editing by Paul Olson.

Marc and Luke take a look at the pitch centered around journalist and cultural icon, Hunter S. Thompson.  Following the arc of the pitch, Marc and Luke take a look at a very interesting period in Thompson's career and life."We know the Hunter S Thompson of lore, the hard drinking, gun shooting outlaw and literary genius holed up in his Colorado ranch. Who we don't know is the man that came before and the circumstances that shaped his transformation from the optimistic intrepid reporter to the rogue anti-hero known as Raoul Duke. How did he get there and who did he meet along the way until he eventually blurred the lines between his own persona and the lead character in his most famous novel Fear And Loathing In Las Vegas?"

Raoul Duke is a long-standing player of the series faithfully representing the European community for many years. He acted as a “lighthouse” for the european community. A member of the famous theot clan which was formed during THPS3- he was one of the first members to get invited at the onset of THPS4. He has never quite considered himself as a pro, but wouldn't call himself casual either. He starred in the infamous THUG1 Video: THUG - Televizzle, along with multiple other great style lines videos, improv videos and was a great Create A Park creator.

Our tenth episode in which we watch and review the 1998 film Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas. Starring Johnny Depp and Benicio del Toro, and directed by Terry Gilliam, the movie is a satirical film based on the 1971 book of the same name written by Hunter S. Thompson, based on his own experiences. The loose plot follows journalist Raoul Duke and his attorney Dr. Gonzo's trip to Vegas to cover the Mint 400 race, which devolves into a drug-fuelled exploration of the city which brings to light the failure of the American Dream. We give our rating and give recommendations, then look back on our first ten episodes.

Terry Gilliam's adaptation of Hunter S. Thompson's acclaimed memoir is a diatribe against Nixonian America, account of a motorcycle race, drug travelogue, and only now the kind of advertisement that the Las Vegas chamber of commerce could get behind.  But it's really the story of Thompson's proxy Raoul Duke's (played by Johnny Depp channeling a sort of mumbly Jim Carrey) desperately trying to channel the destructive energy of his drug buddy/lawyer Dr. Gonzo (played by Benicio del Toro channeling some kind of potbellied, vomit soaked, sweat demon.)  So it's funny. If you'd like to watch ahead for next week's film, we will be discussing and reviewing Jane Campion's An Angel at My Table (1990) with special guest host's AJ and Richard of Cult Popture. 

Desert raised, art school attendee ; metal head for life, 18 years strong tattoo artist, secretly invented 8 biker slang terms, and is credited for using the name Raoul Duke when checking into different hotels in the Vegas desert area. Jim Warf is one unique soul who's the nicest guy this podcast host has had the pleasure of knowing since 2004. Sit back relax and listen to the tale of JIMORDIE.

Heading off for a savage journey to Heart of the American Dream, Matt and Mark discuss the pros (Matt) and cons (Mark) of the Hunter S. Thompson adaptation Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas by Terry Gilliam. Matt attempts to slice and dice the absurdity, comparing such existential musings with the likes of Sartres and Camus, while Mark shrugs his shoulders at the irredeemable assholes which are Raoul Duke and Dr. Gonzo. It's hard to argue either way.Download: 116 Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas

In this episode, Alan and Joe are pleased to invite comedian and video artist Todd Graham onto the show to discuss his Overrated pick; Terry Gilliam's adaptation of Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas. Come with us on a savage journey into Hunter S. Thompson's iconic tale of the depraved and paranoid exploits of Raoul Duke and Dr.Gonzo. Is there any sympathy for this devil of a film, or is it all one bad acid trip? We'll also discuss another film about an equally madcap pair of bohemians struggling to survive the end of the 60s. We'd love to hear what our listeners think of these films, but first you gotta buy the ticket, take a ride... and press play.

Let's get down to brass tacks. We're talking about FEAR AND LOATHING IN LAS VEGAS for this episode of the Nighthawks Podcast. This deceptively deep movie is from film auteur and former Python, Terry Gilliam, and stars Johnny Depp as the enigmatic Dr. Hunter S. Thompson- er... Raoul Duke. Hunter S. Thompson's book is said to have defined a generation, and within it beats the soul of a man who is looking for one last grasp at the sixties. What follows is a true-to-some-degree story about a drug addled journalist and his drug addled attorney taking on Sin City. Will Vegas be the paradise they seek, or just another money making shill? We lost Dr. Thompson 11 years ago, this month. The Nighthawks present this discussion as our humble tribute to an American folk hero.

This week we're talking about a trio of films created from the works and character of the late doctor of Gonzo Journalism, Hunter S. Thompson: Where the Buffalo Roam, Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas, and The Rum Diary.

Tonight we took calls the entire show and went over Spiderman 3, Zombie Flicks, Day of the Dead Remake and tons of other horror topics and off topics. Listen to John, Neal and Troy along with our regular favorites Nightrider, Riren, El Santo and Raoul Duke now before it's too late !!!!! --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/withoutyourhead/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/withoutyourhead/support
