[originally published on Patreon Nov 1, 2022] Today's the first of two episodes on the hardboiled novelist Dashiell Hammett. Today I go through the first half of Hammett's life, including his early life and family history, his time as a Pinkerton operative, and what being a Pinkerton op entailed. I discuss the Mining Wars and tell the story of Frank Little, an IWW organizer. I finish the episode with a discussion of the novel, Red Harvest. Note: the Hammett episodes are, I believe, the last episodes with annoying sound quality issues, for which I apologize.

Look out, the Holodeck's malfunctioning and we're all trapped inside! And the safety protocols have been disabled! And the holograms are self aware! Today we're looking at the Holodeck in three different shows and all the horrors it can cause. First up is The Big Sleep, which introduces Picard as the private dick, Dixon Hill and his entourage can't stop touching things. We also both attempt to re-create Picard's epic speech from the end of the episode. Then we've got Kobayashi, where Dal tries to get through a Holodeck Kobayashi Maru with some of the best people in Starfleet (and Odo who's not technically part of Starfleet). Finally, Bashir and a very sassy Garak play at spies in Our Man Bashir, facing death traps and their comrades who think they're characters in a campy spy film! We also get into some musical acts who gave us psychic damage, a nemesis of the pod and use this as an excuse to talk about a rare musical track that's featured in an episode. 00:09:54 TNG: The Big Sleep 00:40:29 Prodigy: Kobayashi 01:03:12 DS9: Our Man Bashir Talking points include: Visionaries: Knights of the Magical Light, Arnold Judas Rimmer, Dune (1984), Dune (the SyFy movie), Sting's movie career, Lil Gator, the Pokemon Fuecoco, Dead Ringers, The Maltese Falcon, Miles' patronising clapping, Charlie's egg-shaped head, the facial hair of all the different Poirots, D&D novels, Macross, Reboot, Ba Weep Granna Weep Ninny Bong, LA Confidential, Blob Detective, Red Harvest, Brad Dourif, Thunderstruck, Rock Band, Maximum Overdrive, Star Wars: Rebels, Pandemic, Will Self & Gareth Gates' musical career, Explaining The Wombles & Britpop to Americans, James Bond movies, The Man from UNCLE, Alien, LeCarre, GoldenEye.

Join us as we fanboy more than usual over one of our shared favorite authors.

Chris's brother Adam is here (gasp) instead of Paris to review another novel from a long time ago in a galaxy far, far away. This review comes at the request of our Patron Crimson Paladin, who said, "There's a book in the legends canon called Red Harvest. It's a horror book set in the Star Wars universe that involves a Sith Academy, zombies, a sentient flower, and a wookie. I wouldn't say it's bad by the usual standards of your show, but it's definitely bizarre." Many thanks to Crimson Paladin for their patronage and to Adam stepping in so that Paris could take an episode off! We all deserve a little time off here and there.

Welcome to Dev Game Club, where this week we turn to a second bonus interview with Patrick Redding, credited as Story Designer on Far Cry 2, though we would tend to call that a Narrative Designer today. Dev Game Club looks at classic video games and plays through them over several episodes, providing commentary. Podcast breakdown: 0:45 Interview 1:16:50 Break 1:17:20 Outro Issues covered: happening to start listening at the right time, a background in physics, avoiding computer programming, applying problem-solving skills, hearing about new media, exploring story and design through tabletop, thinking about how to incorporate story into existing games, coming on to an existing team, getting thrown into the deep end, why you'd drop the PS2, string of pearls, wanting to reinvent the wheel, tearing apart the macro structure of the game and piecing it back together, moving from camera designer to narrative designer as a field promotion, shipping another retail game while joining a second, not designing the story but tightening the linkage between authored content and player-driven play, waterfall vs iterative and maintaining consistency, making a shooter and not an rpg, systemically reflecting the choices of PCs and growing out that modularity to the whole game, hitting thresholds and dealing with levels of chaos to expose the Jackal, freedom being required in time *and* space, anteing up your buddies, counterpressure and infamy, analog parameters becoming indistinguishable from random, the main wager of putting your buddy in play, a real deal-breaker for the PC, carrying through everything to achieve a pressure dynamic, having far more underlying variables to affect, the simulation of sensibility, offloading computation to the player brain for narrative meaning, creating a narrative from a sports team, the difficulty of getting parseable human interactions in games, thinking about the approach and where the tension is coming from, pie-slice approach and shells of interaction, the emotional whiplash of going from closing mode and tempo to passivity, the big switch, enjoying the camaraderie, narrative design vs writing, the emergence of narrative design in the industry, changing expectations when you ship.

In this episode we have a collaborative review of the Lore in Red Harvest with Aaron from the Mortal Realms and Story Phase. We discuss our thoughts on the lore within the new Warcry box set and the branching quests within.
Yeah, the way this movie was advertised is a bit different from how I took it. That happens. This is a detective x magic crossover event that might get you your fill of both (or not!) and it's called "Cast A Deadly Spell". My DVD copy is "Hechizo Letal" as it's in Spanish. I realize now that I didn't do a great job at relating this to Halloween (as it's actually release on the 31st of October as opposed to November 1st or, as I have so hackishly declared, Noirvember 1st). At the time of this writing I'm actually really sick and coughing out a lung or sleeping most of the day. It's not COVID, thankfully. I did need to record this in various sessions (re-record it at that--I could have nailed it the first time but I figured all I had to lose was time, ironically enough, and it is irony because I'm considering it from the point of an omniscient narrator with knowledge of the future but choosing to not intervene or change the events). But that means there is zero latitude to record pickups or just do it over for the third time. So there is some errata and missing pieces. "Mulholland Drive", the David Lynch picture, came out in 2001. I got "Mulholland Drive" vibes from "Witch Hunt". I wonder if he caught "Witch Hunt" (1994) at some point and it rattled around in his brain--there were two Lynch alums in it so it's quite possible. "Lost Highway" didn't come out until 1997, so my timeline of these movies is wrong, by the way. I don't know if I stated a timeline in the podcast but the way I was thinking about it was a little backwards. "Blue Velvet" and "Twin Peaks: Fire Walk With Me" had already come out so the aesthetic was there but the main points of my Lynch influence had not taken shape just yet. That's a wild fact check for my dumb ass. I misquoted Lovecraft in this movie. He says "show it some water.. but be discreet". Whoops. I didn't talk about the music in "Cast A Deadly Spell" at all. It actually won an Emmy. A Primetime Emmy. For this song: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NQm7ZAkfkYI. It was also nominated for sound editing. That's pretty rad. Curt Sobel did the music on this movie and it was good. I liked it. He's also done a ton of other work. His most recent credit was for "Rumble" and I was very much hoping that it was a movie about Link Wray & His Wray Men but it was not. Disappointing. Here's the link to a live stream from Sound Speeds Allen Williams about the IATSE stuff. He's also got a ton of sound capture stuff on his channel which is super useful or super interesting--depending on how you approach it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cnFTEWvejXY. I know that I talked about "Yojimbo" being an adaptation of Red Harvest but Kurosawa went on record as saying it was actually The Glass Key. I haven't read The Glass Key (just yet) but it lines up pretty good with Red Harvest so.... shrug. I probably also got the timetable wrong there, too. The advertising material paints it as "Who Framed Roger Rabbit?" but with witches and zombies and that's honestly not a connection I would have made. I really overlooked that completely, but I also really like "Who Framed Roger Rabbit" quite a lot... it's just the shoe scene. Wow the shoe scene really messed me up. H. P. Lovecraft was a bit of a weirdo but I did learn, coincidentally, between the recording and the publishing of this episode that his father was committed and died in an asylum which what might have been late-stage syphilis. His mother was also committed at one point and died shortly thereafter. Lovecraft, himself, was plagued with mental health issues for most of his life and I can't help but think that it's linked to early tragedy combined with an intelligence that allowed for learning with out the life experience to contextualize information. That's an incredibly unscientific theory but it feels like it could be true. He also apparently didn't marry his cousin? I don't know. It seems that she was a fiction author. I did finish watching "Witch Hunt". I felt compelled. It wasn't that bad but it also wasn't that good, either. It lives in the middle. They definitely went for it with CGI that was of dubious effectiveness. There's also a trans madame in a magic brothel and a really loose analogue of magic use for The Red Scare which is really just cover for homosexuality or non-cishet or nontraditional (and I know that traditions vary wildly from what we think they are so I mean puritanical American traditions--I took a class on sexuality in college. I'm hip. I'm cool. That was like 15 years ago. I'm so old) sexuality which was also how HUAC was used in blackballing Communists and homosexuals in Hollywood. We do see a very young Clifton Collins Jr. at the brothel which is located in the Millard House, a Frank Lloyd Wright-designed house that has shown up in more than a couple of things--most lately that I can remember it's in Westworld (which might have an entire season that I haven't seen yet--yikes). I started to feel better about the plot and the mystery but then, after a little bit, I didn't? Does that make sense. Maybe it was illness and medication. Maybe I wasn't paying enough attention. Doesn't change my opinion of the movie. I also found out the name of the other theater in the Hollywood hills (or in the hills at least, not sure what exactly defines the "Hollywood" hills)--it's The Ford. I've been to the Hollywood Bowl and that was actually really cool. I think, in the animated movie "Sing", when their theater collapses (spoiler) the stage they end up on is an homage to The Ford but I could be wrong. Ward is wearing a really cool Hamilton watch, though. Hamilton Watch Company is an American company that got swallowed up by Swatch in 1969 and now, I guess, they are Swiss. But sir, ve are Sviss! ....them too! God bless Eurotrip. I went looking for and and, with the help of Bandrew Scott I found it to be a Piping Rock. That's a 1928 model, however, those were seemingly all gold. Watchcastage sleuth Bandrew then found that there was a reissue of the 1928 Yankees World Series version which is pretty cool. Check out the very fun podcast Boars, Gore, and Swords. Red Scott also has another podcast that I listen to called Failure to Adapt which is a good time if you read books and watch book movies. I talk good and stuff. Neil Gaiman's A Study In Emerald as a PDF exclusive on his website. I was unable to find the link that leads to the PDF at the moment (and it may have been lost in the website redesign shuffle) but the standard rights apply--don't resell or reproduce this story it's Neil's property, etc. There is a graphic novel that is available if you want to support the author. Support local booksellers if you can. There's also a board game which is, roughly, a deck builder. Check out Austin Grossman's work. Soon I Will Be Invincible is where I jumped on that train and I haven't jumped off. He's also a game designer and the list of games he's worked on include System Shock, Deus Ex, and Dishonored which are very much my shit. I think a really good representation of Lovecraft's work--but in a visual medium--is Polish painter, photographer, and sculptor Zdzisław Beksiński. Apparently his style is characterized as "dystopian surrealism" and holy shit is this Lovecraftian. Zdzislaw Beksinski - 707 artworks - painting (wikiart.org) gabe on Twitter: "don't want to go through whatever Zdzisław Beksiński went through https://t.co/CNcgVfERFe" / Twitter

Released in 1961, Akira Kurosawa's Yojimbo was an international sensation and put jettisoned star Toshiro Mifune into the pantheon of cinematic badasses. It's the story of merchants who manipulate two factions of gangsters in a small town. Our main character -- a man with no name -- comes to the town and after sizing things up decides that he'll make a bit of money playing both sides against one another. Along the way we discover that perhaps he's not the unscrupulous amoral bastard he pretends to be.Eric Cohen and Jordan Blossey join Mike to discuss Yojimbo, it's sequel Sanjuro and a few other "Yojimbo movies" as well as Sergio Leone's A Fistful of Dollars, Dashiell Hammett's Red Harvest, Walter Hill's Last Man Standing and a raft of other similar films.Learn more about your ad choices.

LG 65UH6150 65-Inch 4K Ultra HD Smart LED TV We have been talking about 4K TVs for about three years. We were pretty early to the 4K scene and as being early adopters we missed out on TVs with HDR and support for the wider color gamut. Such is the problem with being an early adopter. But we knew it was only a matter of time before one of us would buy another TV and this time it would support HDR and Wide Color. As it turns out Ara was the one who recently purchased an LG 65UH6150 (Buy Now $1079) and is quite pleased with what LG has sold him. Features: 4K UHD IPS Panel - in-plane switching maintains consistent color regardless of viewing angle HDR Wide Color Gamut 4K Upconverter TruMotion 120Hz - reduces motion blur on fast moving objects WebOS 3.0 Smart TV - The latest generation of LG's exclusive Smart TV platform Installation and Setup The TV is relatively easy to get off the truck and into the house. You will definitely need a pickup truck to get this home. While it will fit in a lot of SUVs laying flat it is not recommended to move such a large TV like this. The glass is heavier in a large TV and going over a bump could break the screen. Shipping weight is 72 lbs (32.7Kgs), it's only 60 lbs when you get it out of the box. You lift the box off of the TV and then carefully attach two legs with a philips screwdriver. Once on the TV stand we connected power and an HDMI cable from the AppleTV. We didn't bother connecting a FireTV since the TV comes with an Amazon app that is capable of 4K HDR and Wide Color Gamut. We also opted to use the built in Netflix app since it too supported HDR and 4K. The first thing we did was connected to our 5Ghz wifi network and once connected the TV notified us of a firmware update. The update took about 20 minutes. Once that was completed we logged into our Amazon and Netflix accounts and we were good to go! There are more apps than Netflix and Amazon but that was all we were interested in. Other apps include: Hulu Channel Plus Youtube Vudu Pandora Crackle Spotify And more We did not do any formal calibration or did we tweak the settings. We simply set the TV to Cinema mode for the majority of our viewing and HDR Effect when we were watching UHD Discs or streamed content that supported HDR. There are ISF calibration setting levels for those who want to have the TV calibrated. Note - to turn on 10bit color go to the General/HDMI ULTRA HD Deep Color setting and turn this on per HDMI input. If the device does not support 10 bit color it may not work in this mode. Performance We recently did a review of the Oppo Digital UDP-203 (Podcast #777) where much of the viewing was done on this TV. For the performance portion pertaining to UHD discs we'll just repeat that here. We'll also add watching 1080p television content and streamed 4K HDR content from Netflix and Amazon. Overall the TV has great color and good blacks. In content that was encoded with HDR the Blacks looked almost plasma like. Other times they looked like they had a tinge of gray. We found that much of the picture performance depended on what you are feeding the TV. The other pleasant surprise was the speakers. Typically it's hard to hear dialog on modern TVs. This one did not have that problem. UHD Disc First up was “Keeping up with the Joneses” Other than the noticeable improvement in detail there wasn't much of an improvement. There were scenes where I could notice more realistic color and shadow details. This is a limitation of the disc not the player or the TV. Which brought us to a revelation. You really need to pay attention to your entire chain to get the most out of HDR. That includes the content. While I felt the Oppo and TV did a great job with the movie, I was let down by the movie itself. Next up was Independence day Resurgence. This was another disc that didn't meet my expectations. There are a lot of dark scenes and HDR should have made a bigger difference. The shadow detail really didn't look better than the Blu-ray. Again this is a limitation of the content. I had high expectations for Magnificent 7 and the LG did not disappoint! The detail and color were so lifelike it felt as though I was transported to the wild west. I found myself watching the detail at times and not the movie. It felt like I was being introduced to HDTV for the first time. Skin tones were the most natural I have ever seen. The beard/stubble on Chris Pratt's face was so detailed I felt that he looked too groomed for the wild west. The detail in the dark scenes were really pronounced. In fact the blacks seemed almost plasma like. The war paint on Red Harvest's face looked so good, again, it was almost too good! There were no visible artifacts that I could see even when I got up very close to the screen. This is why you want to upgrade your HDTV and Blu-ray player. Streaming Content For this I watched content on Amazon Prime and Netflix. On Amazon Prime I viewed Bosch and Man in the High Castle. The Man in the High Castle is already a dark film so HDR should have helped quite a bit. I noticed that is seemed a bit soft. It's not really the best use of HDR. Since I have seen some great HDR on UHD discs I only concluded that it is shot/produced this way. Then I watched Bosch. Again, it did not look that good. I don't know if it's a bandwidth thing (I get 50Mbps down consistently) or an encoding thing. Regardless, Amazon was not the best example of HDR. Moving over to netflix the only thing I tested was Do Over. It an Adam Sandler show that looks like it has some potential. Netflix HDR looked better than Amazon's but again not as good as the The Magnificent 7. Television There wasn't much to say about watching TV signal. The LG upscaler did a good job with taking 1080p content and turning it into 4K. I did not notice any artifacts or any other defects that would have resulted in the upconversion. Colors looked good, especially on the network channels. In general, 1080p television content looked fine. Conclusion If you are in the market for a new TV it makes sense to buy a 4K HDR set now. The content still has a way to go as far as consistency of application of the HDR and wide color gamut technology. But costs are low enough where it's OK to buy the TV now and wait for the content to catch up. Do not buy a 4K TV that does not support HDR and the wide color gamut. It will be very difficult to see any difference. The LG 65UH6150 is a great TV in this regard. With the right content it will make watching TV and movies more lifelike than anything you've seen to date. Sure there may be better TVs on the market. But none at $1000!
Oppo UDP-203 4K Ultra HD Blu-ray Disc Player Many of you (us included) have gone out and purchased a 4K TV sets but still have Blu-ray players connected to them. Sure these TVs do a good job at upconverting your 1080p content but we want more. We want native content at full bandwidth! There have been UHD players on the market for about a year that run about $300. Still many decided to wait. Some hoping for lower prices and others waiting for Oppo Digital to release their UHD player. If you were like us and waiting on the Oppo, your wait is over! The Oppo UDP-203 Ultra HD/Blu-ray player is available and it's only $549. We say only because it packs a lot of features in for that $549: Audio and Video Processing that has made Oppo a staple among those who are particular about their entertainment. Oppo has designed a custom quad-core processor for the video processing and they use a 32 bit 8 channel DAC from AKM to support audiophile grade audio. Fast Disc Loading using an optimized laser mechanism. HDR/Dolby Vision, the UDP203 supports the HDR10 format and will support Dolby Vision via a firmware upgrade. Upscaling is what put Oppo on the map in the early days of HDTV. Their new play takes that to a new level with the ability to upscale your Blu-ray discs to 4K. For the audiophile there is support for lossless audio All the latest surround formats are supported 7.1 Analog Output Well integrated with IR, RS-232, third party IP Control system, and HDMI CEC commands. The player also supports Trigger In and Out, so it can automatically turn on and off other devices connected to it for the ultimate convenience. Setup Setup was easy! We pulled out the old Oppo player and put this one in it's place. We did have to swap out all but the Ethernet cable. The HDMI cable only needs to be swapped out if it's not certified as high speed. Since Oppo includes one in the box we just used the one that came with the player. Since our receiver is HDMI 2.0 and HDCP 2.2 certified we went through it. But if you have a situation where you don't have a receiver that supports the latest standards you can use the HDMI 1.4 output on the Oppo to go to the receiver and use the HDMI 2.0 output to go to the TV. This will make it possible for a lot of people to enjoy high quality video and audio without having to buy a new receiver! For our testing we used two TVs. One that was 4K but did not support HDR and another one that did support 4K and HDR. The entire chain is described below: Oppo UDP203 ----> Yamaha RX-850A ---> Vizio 70 inch P-Series UHD TV Oppo UDP203 ---> LG 65UH6150 The Vizio was used for watching HDR content on TVs that don't support HDR and the LG was used for the full experience. BTW, you can find the LG 65UH615A at Costco or Sam's club for about $200 less than the 65UH6150 and from what we can tell they are identical in specs. After everything was connected we updated the firmware which took about 20 minutes. After that we were on our way. The menus are very basic but very functional. There are menus for Music, Photos, Movies, Network, Setup, and Favorites. The only menu we explored however is the network. We were somewhat surprised to see our Plex Server show up. It was a crude implementation but all our content was there. We were able to play some movies but the results weren't very good,. The playback was choppy. This was with a hardwired connection as well. Since that wasn't our main purpose of the review we got a few UHD discs and pushed forward. The Oppo allows you to tweak some video parameters. For our review we did not touch any of them. In fact the TVs were also left in their respective movie/cinema modes. We felt that this is how most people watch their TVs. If you have a professional calibrate your TVs you can expect even better results than what we experienced. Performance Our evaluation was conducted with The Magnificent 7, Independence Day Resurgence, and Keeping up with the Jones. By the way, buy the UHD version of any movies you plan on watching in the future even if you don't have a UHD player since they all have a Blu-ray option for purchase. First up was watching Blu-rays on the Vizio. For this we went back in our vault and pulled out Blackhawk Down. We were really looking at the night scenes and in particular the scene looking through the night scope. In these cases we were looking at how much detail was present. There would be no way to compare it against an HDR version but we were hoping that we would see more than the Blu-ray. And for this we were surprised. It did look better than the Blu-ray. The black levels were deep but not so deep that you couldn't see detail. You could easily make out details in people's faces and see the sweat and grime from a day of fighting. The night vision shot had clarity and a crispness that seemed to be enhanced by the player. The upconverter in the Oppo is very good. When examined up close we could not see any artifacts like in the old days of upconverting SD to HD. We wouldn't say that it made the picture and more detailed or sharper, but it certainly didn't make it worse. Then we watched Magnificent 7. For this movie the UDP-203 had to go from HDR to SDR on the Vizio. What we saw was very impressive. The movie was sharp and detailed. Colors were natural and warm. With that said, we didn't find the improvement over the Blu-ray really compelling. We felt the same about Independence Day and Keeping Up with the Jones. The audio in all cases sounded like it was at another level. Whether it was Dolby or DTS the audio made the movie. We did experience a few lipsync issues while watching however. We hit pause and then play and it got better. We had to do that about 6 times over the course of five movies. We only experienced this on the Vizio and attribute the issue to the video processing. The LG has a newer processor and did not have this issue. The real test was going to be with a TV that supports HDR. For that, Ara took the UHD player to his condo where he setup his recently purchased LG 65UH6150. Full review of the TV in an upcoming show. There is no receiver in this setup. Braden was not able to view on the LG so the remainder of this section is written in the first person. First up was “Keeping up with the Joneses” Other than the noticeable improvement in detail there wasn't much of an improvement. There were scenes where I could notice more realistic color and shadow details. This is a limitation of the disc not the player or the TV. Which brought us to a revelation. You really need to pay attention to your entire chain to get the most out of HDR. That includes the content. While I felt the Oppo did a great job with the movie, I was let down by the movie itself. But that's OK I knew Magnificent 7 was going to be awesome! Next up was Independence day Resurgence. This was another disc that didn't meet my expectations. There are a lot of dark scenes and HDR should have made a bigger difference. The shadow detail really didn't look better than the Blu-ray. Again this is a limitation of the content. But that's OK I knew Magnificent 7 was going to be awesome! I had high expectations for Magnificent 7. It looked really good on a non-HDR 4K TV after all. The Movie, TV and most importantly the UDP-203 did not disappoint! The detail and color were so lifelike it felt as though I was transported to the wild west. I found myself watching the detail at times and not the movie. It felt like I was being introduced to HDTV for the first time. Skin tones were the most natural I have ever seen. The beard/stubble on Chris Pratt's face was so detailed I felt that he looked too groomed for the wild west. The detail in the dark scenes were more pronounced than on the Vizio. In fact the blacks seemed almost plasma like. The war paint on Red Harvest's face looked so good, again, it was almost too good! There were no visible artifacts that I could see even when I got up very close to the screen. This is why you want to upgrade your HDTV and Blu-ray player. Odds and Ends Load Times are very good. Nothing like the first Blu-rays. In general we were up on screen in less that 15 seconds The menus are simple and easy to navigate. Quite honestly you won't be in them very much. The remote has a ton of buttons. Most you will never use. If you have a Harmony or other remote you can reduce it to the essentials. Dolby Vision firmware upgrade is slated for early 2017. To us that mean by tax day. Let's see if Oppo agrees For the audiophiles out there the UDP-203 can pretty much handle any file you throw at it. Multi-channel DSD64/128, as well as 192kHz/24-bit PCM in all the popular formats are supported. HDMI Input so external devices can take advantage of the UDP-203's audio and video processing. Conclusion If you have upgraded your HDTV to a UHD set that supports HDR you would be committing a crime if you didn't upgrade your Blu-ray player. There are a few options out there and while the Oppo costs a little more you get so much more. The best audio playback support of any UHD player on the market today, coupled with ability upconvert to 4K video streamed over your local network or played through the USB and HDMI inputs makes the UDP-203 the most capable UHD player available at any price. Support for Dolby Vision via a firmware upgrade makes this player the only one on the market today that is future proof!
