This week we get alllll spooky and cinematic! We talk Zombie apocalypse with World War Z by Max Brooks (also, this one has an incredible audiobook)! Thanks for reading along with us! Our next book will be Station Eleven by Emily St. John Mandel, because we just can't get optimistic. Host: Nic Co-host: Mike Burns and Mike Carroll "We survived the zombie apocalypse, but how many of us are still haunted by that terrible time? We have (temporarily?) defeated the living dead, but at what cost? Told in the haunting and riveting voices of the men and women who witnessed the horror firsthand, World War Z is the only record of the pandemic.   The Zombie War came unthinkably close to eradicating humanity. Max Brooks, driven by the urgency of preserving the acid-etched first-hand experiences of the survivors, traveled across the United States of America and throughout the world, from decimated cities that once teemed with upwards of thirty million souls to the most remote and inhospitable areas of the planet. He recorded the testimony of men, women, and sometimes children who came face-to-face with the living, or at least the undead, hell of that dreadful time. World War Z is the result. Never before have we had access to a document that so powerfully conveys the depth of fear and horror, and also the ineradicable spirit of resistance, that gripped human society through the plague years." From the Three Rivers Press back cover.

This week, host Elisa is joined by David Wessel, economic expert at the Brookings Institution, to discuss how economic and debt policies can strengthen or weaken national security.

When prescribing a homeopathic remedy aphorisms 1, 6 and 153 are important to remember.  Prescribing as unprejudiced and open to understanding the patient and the remedy that both share a similar experience, source, rare and peculiar.  No matter whether you are looking for the characteristics of the case, the keynote, and or the source words or characteristics of the substance, in the end it must be the rare, unusual and very peculiar that leads the homeopath and the prescriber to the Similimum – best indicated remedy for the totality of symptoms before you. Question for today – What is ‘experience' in comparison with ‘feeling'? Recommended reading for prescribing remedies include: Translators: Kunzli, Naude and Pendleton, Sixth Edition of Samuel Hahnemann's Organon of Medicine,  1982, Cooper Publishing, USA.

Dean Sluyter has spent a lifetime learning authentic methods of natural meditation from eastern and western sages and making them accessible to thousands, including prisoners, tech innovators, filmmakers, high school students, and entrepreneurs. He has completed numerous retreats and pilgrimages in Tibet, India, Nepal, and Europe, and for decades has led workshops throughout the United States. He is the author of The Zen Commandments (Tarcher/Putnam 2001), Why the Chicken Crossed the Road and Other Hidden Enlightenment Teachings (Tarcher/Putnam 1998), Cinema Nirvana: Enlightenment Lessons From the Movies (Three Rivers Press 2005), Natural Meditation: A Guide to Effortless Meditative Practice (Tarcher/Penguin 2015)Interview Date: 4/23/2015  Tags: Dean Sluyter, Beingness, The Musk Deer Story, thoughts, Nature of Mind, enlightenment, Sri Mooji, Mickey Mouse, blank mind, Meditation, Buddhism

Sluyter says not to worry about thoughts during our meditation; they are inevitable. Often we must deal with such sounds as voices or traffic rolling by. He instructs that, “It's all a texture of the silence, which actually you are at your core. It's just resting in what you are in your own essence.” He also suggests that we find the meditation style that suits us. Dean Sluyter has taught natural methods of meditation and awakening throughout the United States and beyond since 1970. He's taught at colleges, yoga studios, corporate offices, and maximum-security prisons. He's known for his funny, down-to-earth style, and for making life-transforming teachings accessible and easy. He is the author of many books including The Zen Commandments (Tarcher/Putnam 2001), Why the Chicken Crossed the Road and Other Hidden Enlightenment Teachings (Tarcher/Putnam 1998), Cinema Nirvana: Enlightenment Lessons from the Movies (Three Rivers Press 2005), Natural Meditation: A Guide to Effortless Meditative Practice (Tarcher/Penguin 2015), Fear Less: Living Beyond Fear, Anxiety, Anger, and Addiction (TarcherPerigee 2018)Interview Date: 4/23/2015  Tags: Dean Sluyter, Zen meditation, Mahareshi Mahesh Yogi, Transcendental Meditation, principle of least action, boundless happiness, Nirvana, guided visualization, beingness, monkey mind, attention, sky meditation, Bugs Bunny, Daffy Duck, worry, prisoners meditating, benefactor meditation, mediating on the breath, Mr. Rogers, Sri Mooji, Meditation, Personal Transformation, Self Help, Buddhism

Hello, kaiju lovers! Jimmy's (former?) flame war nemesis, tokustasu scholar John LeMay, returns to discuss the second banned film to be covered on MIFV: Prophecies of Nostradamus. This infamous disaster film—which is as different from Submersion of Japan as night is from day—was Toho's biggest hit of 1974 and features the last appearance by Takeshi Shimura in a Toho tokusatsu film, which only makes its banishment to the back of the vault all the more puzzling. Nate and John explain that the film was banned because of a 30-second scene (that wasn't even real!) featuring “Soft-Bodied Humans” that was seen as offensive to atomic bombing survivors. Nate also gives a history lesson on who the popular but misunderstood French seer Nostradamus was and his book of prophecies, which inspired this bizarre film. Yes, we know that this episode went over the Board-mandated time limit for “mini-sodes”—and we don't care! You can buy John's latest books here and here on Amazon. We'd like to give a shout-out to our MIFV MAX patrons Travis Alexander and Michael Hamilton (co-hosts of Kaiju Weekly); Danny DiManna (author/creator of the Godzilla Novelization Project); Eli Harris (elizilla13); Chris Cooke (host of One Cross Radio); Bex from Redeemed Otaku; and Damon Noyes! Thanks for your support! You, too, can join MIFV MAX on Patreon to get this and other perks starting at only $3 a month! This episode is approved by the Monster Island Board of Directors.

In this episode we talk The Monkees, Mama Cass and Keith Moon!If you are a fan of The Monkees, then you know that that quirky quartet was perfectly cast. But did you know that hundreds of actors and musicians, some we know very well today, auditioned for one of those 4 sacred slots? We'll tell the story of Peter Tork and how he became a Monkee, thanks in part to one famous musician and former roommate! Rock has a list of famous faces that left us too soon. And Mama Cass of The Mamas & the Papas and Keith Moon of The Who are at the top of that list. However, the are a number of eerie similarities between their early demise...

If there is one thing that needs to be improved upon now a days its communication. We communicate in all sorts of ways, yet people rarely feel the need to improve upon it. I would say, at best we have found ways to do more of it, but more of it does not mean that the communication is always healthy. We somehow have managed to do more of communicating badly in some instances. This episode we talk about how communication happens; the value and liability of communication in relationships; and techniques for better communication in relationships.

Max Brooks is an American actor and author. He is the son of comedy legend Mel Brooks and actress Anne Bancroft. Much of Brooks’s writing focuses on zombie stories. He is known as the godfather of the cultural phenomenon of the zombie genre. His first book, The Zombie Survival Guide (2003), published by Three Rivers Press, describes in depth the origin and lives of zombies. The book was followed up by The Zombie Survival Guide: Recorded Attacks (2009), a graphic novel depicting several of the events detailed in the first book’s latter section. In 2006, Brooks followed with World War Z: An Oral History of the Zombie War, which deals with the war between the human race and zombies. Paramount Pictures acquired the movie rights, and Brad Pitt’s production company, Plan B Entertainment, produced the film. The #1 bestselling author of World War Z returns with a horror tale that blurs the lines between human and beast, and asks, What are we capable of when we’re cut off from society? Max has a new book out called Devolution: A Firsthand Account of the Rainier Sasquatch Massacre

¡Primer especial de verano! No es nuestro regreso, pero esperamos que este episodio especial haga la espera más corta. En 1985, Phil Collins estaba prendido fuego y todo lo que tocaba se convertía en oro. Para ese año, su carrera estaba explotando. Esta carrera incluía haber sido número uno con el álbum Face Value en el Reino Unido y número uno en Estados Unidos con el álbum No Jacket Required, el que tiene ese single tan famoso: Sussudio. Además de seguir con Genesis, su banda, tocó con Robert Plant. Sting y Eric Clapton, produjo un álbum para Anni Fryd Lyngstad de ABBA, Earth Wind and Fire, salió en un episodio de Miami Vice y casi gana un Oscar. El futuro parecía perfecto. Hasta que se vio involucrado en una serie de hechos desafortunados que harían que lentamente el mundo comenzara a odiarlo. Su carrera sería excelente, más no la visión que el público tendría de él. Y algunos dicen que el inicio de esa caída fue un siniestro episodio donde algunos lo acusarían de causar la separación definitiva de nada menos que Led Zeppelin… Imagen: Obviamente es Phil Collins lanzando los dados al aire.

In this episode, writer/producer Kristin Newman makes me giggle even more than usual and shares some great advice on writing for television. Kristin's credits include: "That's 70's Show," "How I Met Your Mother," "Single With Parents," "Chuck" and most recently, "The Neighbors." She also has a book coming out in the near future that I can NOT wait to read: "What I Was Doing While You Were Breeding:  A Memoir of Sex on Vacation." We talk about everything from what a McGuffin is to hanging out with Ashton Kutcher, Demi Moore and a chimpanzee to writing a pilot about one's family. KRISTIN NEWMAN'S BIO Kristin Newman has been writing for American television for thirteen years, on shows such as "That '70s Show," "How I Met Your Mother," and "Chuck."  She also wrote and produced a half-hour pilot for ABC starring Alyssa MIlano and Beau Bridges called "Single with Parents" and has also written and sold pilots to CBS, NBC and the CW networks.  She is currently a writer/producer on ABC's "The Neighbors," and just sold her first book to Three Rivers Press, a memoir called "What I Was Doing While You Were Breeding:  A Memoir of Sex on Vacation."

When she emerged triumphant in a legal battle with the Texas beef industry, Oprah Winfrey took to the steps of the Amarillo court house and declared: “Free speech rocks!” She was likely a little less enthusiastic about the First Amendment following the publication of Kitty Kelley‘s unauthorized book Oprah: A Biography, which is now out in paperback. The match-up of the daytime television queen and the unauthorized biographer, Kitty Kelley, is one for the ages. The author of eight books– five of them New York Times number one bestsellers, all of them about living people and none of them authorized– Kelley has spent thirty years writing unflinchingly candid accounts of the most influential celebrities of our age. Even the New Yorker allowed that “A Kitty Kelley biography of Oprah Winfrey is one of those King Kong vs. Godzilla events in celebrity culture.” With the help of over 800 interviews and four years of research, she provides an insightful analysis of Winfrey's cultural significance, as an African-American woman and a survivor of sexual abuse. But, perhaps the biggest contribution of Oprah: A Biography is that it picks away at the seemingly impenetrable persona Winfrey has presented and paints a nuanced portrait of a woman far more complicated, ambitious and interesting than the one seen on TV.
