Happy Halloween from The B-Side! Here we talk about movie stars! Not the movies that made them famous or kept them famous, but the ones that they made in between. Today we talk about one of the greats––Vincent Price! Our guest this episode––as with every Halloween episode––is Gavin Mevius, co-host of The Mixed Reviews Podcast of The Glitterjaw Queer Podcast Collective. Make sure you listen to their own comprehensive episode on Vincent Price as well! Our B-Sides today are: The Baron of Arizona, Champagne for Caesar, War-Gods of the Deep, and finally Cry of the Banshee. We talk about Price, his interesting life and family history, and the diversity of roles he took on, some reflected in the above B-Sides. Price's Nic Cage-like professional prolific-ness and “respect for the dollar” comes up, as does the real-life Charles Van Doren quiz show scandal from the ‘50s (the basis for the masterful Robert Redford film Quiz Show). There's mention of the growing respect of filmmaker Samuel Fuller over the years as well as an appreciation of the great Jacques Tourneur and a brief delve into underwater photography. We mention this insightful comedy observation from Tina Fey, this incredible Bill Hader impersonation (and this one), and Price's iconic work as Ratigan in The Great Mouse Detective. Last but not least, we discuss Gavin's upcoming, exciting The Q Division Podcast, A James Bond Movie Marathon. Be sure to give us a follow on Twitter and Facebook at @TFSBSide.

"Somebody tragically killed him. We don't know who, we don't know why."At approximately 5:30 PM on 17 January 2020, authorities were called out to an apartment in Ballston, a Virginia neighborhood on the outskirts of Washington D.C. There, a young man had been discovered bloodied in his bedroom, and was believed to have gone into cardiac arrest. By the time medics arrived at the scene, however, the victim was already dead of an apparent homicide.Later, it would come to light that 24-year-old Scott Ratigan's potential killer had prepared extensively beforehand, donning dark clothing and a facial covering before arriving at the scene. Surveillance footage would capture some of this individual's movements in the time surrounding this crime, including their unusual manner of walking...To see the footage of the unknown subject on the Arlington County Police Department's YouTube channel, please do so at the following link:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=njY2yh_9HzgResearch, writing, hosting, and production by Micheal WhelanMusic composed and created by Micheal WhelanLearn more about this podcast at http://unresolved.meIf you would like to support this podcast, consider heading to https://www.patreon.com/unresolvedpod to become a Patron or ProducerBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/unresolved--3266604/support.

Last month we looked at the Disney animated film that almost took down Disney animation as we know it. This month we look at the film that brought it back from near death, 1986's THE GREAT MOUSE DETECTIVE. To help us look at this magical film, we brought in animation MEGAFAN Paul from the Flicks and Friends Podcast. How did a animated Sherlock Holmes story with mice and an evil rat help save a studio? Why was Vincent Price the perfect choice for the voice of the villain Ratigan? Those questions and so much more get answered in this episode. It's time to venture into late 1800's London and try to solve the case of this underrated Disney classic. OH RATIGAN!

On January 17th, 2020, 24-year-old Scott Ratigan was found murdered in his Arlington, Virginia apartment. Police shared little information publicly about the case until a year later when they released surveillance footage of a person of interest, yet no arrests have been made.

Smaller financial companies like tasty are predicated on empowering individuals. The problem they run into is the engrained culture within finance that pushes passivity. The message around the complexities of investing and argument for passivity has been around for as long as any of us can remember and it's turned into an incredibly profitable message for traditional financial companies. Central to that message is the exploitation of people's belief there is someone out there who knows more and has some sort of advantage. Convincing people otherwise is a tough hill to climb. On this week's episode, Tom and Dylan discuss the challenge of disruption in an entrenched industry.

It's been a brutal year for equities and no stock better exemplifies that than Tesla. There are other stocks that have been beaten down, but it's different when the market darling of the last few years gets crushed. When leaders fall, followers question their own ability to survive. If the best of the best are not indestructible, what does that say about your chances? According to Tom, it's all about how you view risk and limiting exposure.

It used to be that banks had a monopoly on customer information. They see where you spend money and how often. Today, places like Amazon, who know virtually everything about you and social media companies, who know what you think, arguably have more information at their disposal than even banks. There is legitimate reason to discuss how this information and the lists those companies can create should be used. Tune in to this week's episode to hear Tom and Dylan discuss how these lists can be used and whether or not their use should be regulated.

We've seen too many examples of what happens when corporate governance fails. The most recent example, Sam Bankman-Fried and FTX. It's hard enough to get a business started and keep it running. Inadequate corporate governance isn't sexy but it can be incredibly expensive when not done correctly. Deciding upon a corporate structure with adequate oversight is too often overlooked until something has gone horribly wrong. On this week's episode, Tom and Dylan discuss how to create the correct governance structure and how to create an effective board of directors.

Fresh on the heels of Powell's rate hike slowdown, Dylan Ratigan and Tom Sosnoff observe its impact on the market. With volatility down, equities up, and the US dollar getting whacked, what's ahead for the rest of the year? What about 2023?

If you're a consumer of financial news, the crypto space appears toxic at the moment. However, crypto assets are still trading; they still have value. The space isn't going away but its weaknesses have been exposed. For the firms that survived, this is an opportunity. For regulators, this demonstrates the need to get oversight in place. For investors, this could be the chance for crypto and the firms that support it to prove themselves. On this week's episode, Tom and Dylan discuss what the FTX fallout means for crypto and what comes next.

Feeling distracted lately? We have gotten to the point where embracing the chaos seems normal. Fractures are emerging. Nothing seems to make sense anymore. Whether it's Elon Musk's latest antics with Twitter or the divisiveness of the midterm elections, the noise is deafening. On this week's episode, Dylan, and Tom debate whether distractions have any bearing when it comes to the markets.

Is the best course of action to blindly believe that markets are efficient by design and simply trust the process? In trading you make investment decisions based on all the information made available to you – and trust that stocks have been priced accordingly. However, could your decision still be based on nothing more than a guess? Does all that information reflect the true value of the stocks you are trading? Decisions can have many outcomes. Today, Tom and Dylan discuss if we should trust the motivations behind every decision.

Remember the 1987 market crash? Some of you do, but many don't because they probably weren't even born yet. In those days, if you were out and about, you probably didn't know until the evening news broadcast – no cell or smartphones and no 24-hour access to news touting the latest financial and economic woes. Today is very different. Anyone can change the day's narrative, be it politicians, Kanye West, or Elon Musk. Is that a good thing? Because ethically speaking, especially from a journalist's standpoint, where fact-checking is a must, it erodes information and adds to audience distrust. Is 24-hour access to news feeds keeping us informed, or is it overkill, desensitizing us to the worst atrocities being reported? Tom and Dylan discuss the implications of misinformation on today's Truth or Skepticism.

For capitalism to work, you need ideas and money. Money will naturally flow to the best ideas… In theory. Steve Jobs had no way of knowing whether Apple would be a success when he started the company, but he kept his eye on the prize at all costs… He believed in his vision and got others to believe in it too. Google didn't know what they would become either or Amazon. Ideas that offer the greatest chance of success are relatively low risk, right? But who's the driver of capitalism? Is it the banks? Politicians? Idea generators? On this segment of Truth or Skepticism, Tom and Dylan discuss capitalism and the tenets for its success.

When you're an opportunist, your survival is dependent upon capitalizing on an opportunity when it presents itself. But at what point is the line drawn in the sand? Can you be to opportunistic? Is it okay for a hedge firm to want more than fair value on a stock they are selling you just to cover their losses on a short position? If you're on vacation and a natural disaster destroys every hotel in the area except one, is it okay for that hotel to ask for $1,000 a night when a room at that same hotel typically costs $200 a night? When does it become exploitation and taking advantage of a situation for their own means? Tom and Dylan discuss the fine line between what is morally correct in the face of opportunity.

How do you know? You don't. But the lows and highs of the market are to be expected. Unfortunately, the less than stellar state of the IPO market right now has investors running toward greener and albeit safer pastures. People don't like to be devalued and neither do companies. However, fear-based decisions have no place in trading where risk is a constant. The best opportunities to be had are when a little public fear mongering keeps you on your toes. Be bold. Where there's a downside there's almost always an upside. On today's Truth or Skepticism, Tom and Dylan contest this distorted point of view.

The Fed raised rates. Then suddenly there was a big sell-off in the markets, adding to Tom's argument that knowing the news cycle in advance has little to no effect on an efficient marketplace. Systems are put in place for a reason. But does that same efficiency push companies to establish monopolies to survive or is this an antiquated remnant of business practices that go back to the Industrial Revolution? Can it even sustain itself in a highly capitalistic world that is rife with competition, and does it even apply to today's modern markets? Tom equates monopolizing an industry as the go-to strategy of the big dumb animal (elephantine monopolies) - and the disruptors are the small but wily field mice. Those creative thinkers and entrepreneurs who live to disrupt and shake up those massive conglomerates to their core. And they often do. Those that try to hoard the entire pie instead of sharing with the masses are setting themselves up for extinction. Those innovators (field mice) will eventually and quite purposefully give them a run for their trillion-dollar money. Is the rate of innovation and subsequent lowering of barriers to entry forcing companies to seek a monopolistic advantage in order to insulate themselves from the competition? Insulation is, at best, a myth and, at worst, a house of cards. Tune in and hear Tom and Dylan figure it all out on this week's episode.
