“Toss a coin to your Witcher…”Netflix's The Witcher series, adapted from the popular series of books by Andrzej Sapkowski and the critically acclaimed video games, is full of striking visuals and unique takes on traditional fantasy and sword/sworcery concepts. As embodied by Henry Cavill, the series protagonist, Geralt of Rivia, is a distinctive, stoic action hero. Cavill, of course, is no stranger to playing superhumans, but playing a Witcher is a little different than playing a Kryptonian. Most notably, a Witcher's powers aren't naturally born with them, but rather brought out by intense physical, magical, and even chemical means.One of the most iconic visuals in the Netflix series is when Geralt's pupils fully dilate, giving his eyes an unsettling, all-black appearance. This is to symbolize the change brought about by one of the Witcher's potions, which enhance his already considerable abilities, a key one being the ability to see in the dark.Sure, The Witcher is fully in the realm of fantasy, full of ideas that would never make it in the scientific world. But considering the remarkable structure and function of the eye, and the broad spectrum of vision that exists throughout the animal kingdom, the idea of adapting and expanding our existing senses doesn't seem so far-fetched. So we're tackling night vision in the world of The Witcher this episode, and you might be surprised by what we found.You can also check this episode out on our YouTube page! FURTHER READING Do you want to delve a little deeper into the facts, concepts, and stories Hakeem and Tamara referenced in today's episode? Of course you do! How Eyes WorkBefore we can get into the really fun stuff, it helps to just have a little bit of an understanding of how the human eye is structured and why it works the way it does. This is the most detailed explanation we found that also still makes sense for a layperson.Night VisionTo start, let's take a look at the upper limit of human night vision capabilities. We're honestly pretty unspectacular compared to the rest of the animal kingdom, but it's good to get a baseline of where our eyes are at in this area. The other thing to consider is how electronic night vision works, because this will give us a better understanding of how light behaves and how it's perceived. But then take a look at the biology of animals with superior night vision and think about how this might map on to the human eye. It's a long shot, but it helps support the idea as explored in The Witcher.Averted Vision“Our dark sensitivity is way greater than most people realize.” The technique Hakeem describes to see more faintly lit objects is explained in considerable detail here.Henry Cavill's Witcher Transformation“I know there've been a lot of questions about cat's eyes and all sorts online. For me, his eyes had to look like normal human eyes unless he's staring into direct sunlight, where he has the ability to contract his pupils into a cat's eye so he can gain an advantage against an opponent in direct sunlight. I wanted it to look slightly terrifying, but also a little enthralling at the same time.Read the full interview with Henry Cavill here!SUGGESTED VIEWING For some of the points specifically discussed in this episode, check out The Witcher season 1 episode 1 “The End's Beginning”, season 1 episode 3 “Betrayer Moon”, and season 1 episode 8 “Much More.” Obviously, we suggest you watch all three seasons, because the show is excellent. But you should also check out the prequel anime, The Witcher: Nightmare of the Wolf, which details the rigorous and painful transformation process it takes to create a Witcher!WANT MORE FROM DOES IT FLY?From fantasy fantasy to space fantasy, have you checked out our episode on Star Wars' lightsabers yet?

A diretora brasileira Gandja Monteiro acaba de marcar presença no Universo Cinematográfico da Marvel (MCU) com a estreia do sexto episódio de Agatha Desde Sempre, que entrou no ar na última quarta-feira (16), na plataforma Disney+. A cineasta dirigiu este e os capítulos oito e nove, que finalizam a minissérie e estarão disponíveis em 30 de outubro e 6 de novembro, respectivamente. Cleide Klock, correspondente da RFI em Los AngelesGandja é hoje uma das cineastas brasileiras com maior destaque na direção de séries de TV norte-americanas, com produções que trazem à tona narrativas autênticas e complexas e representam um avanço significativo na busca por uma indústria do entretenimento mais inclusiva. Mas nem por isso é fácil, muito pelo contrário: o sucesso individual da cineasta, embora inspirador, não apaga a realidade de que as mulheres latinas ainda enfrentam desafios sistêmicos em Hollywood."Estamos bem longe de uma representatividade real em Hollywood. Acho que a representatividade latina é bem minúscula e de mulheres também, os números parecem que não sobem. Pré-pandemia, os números estavam mais altos, aí caíram durante a pandemia e isso faz uma diferença muito grande", afirma Gandja."Eu acho que todo trabalho ajuda o próximo, então é lógico que a Marvel tem um certo espaço na indústria. Mas, é interessante porque o estúdio não estava em um lugar tão brilhante nos últimos tempos e eu acho que dirigir uma série como Agatha ajuda, porque ela é uma desconstrução do que a Marvel tem feito", destaca a cineasta brasileira.Agatha Desde Sempre explora a origem e a história da poderosa feiticeira Agatha Harkness, personagem icônica dos quadrinhos. Após sua aparição marcante em "WandaVision" (2021), a série se aprofunda no passado de Agatha, revelando seus segredos, poderes e conexões com outros personagens do MCU. A minissérie foi dirigida por três diretoras."Todas mulheres e muitas roteiristas mulheres, a criadora também é mulher, a executiva da Marvel, também. É bem feminino o universo", constata.Um olhar único para a magiaGandja nasceu em Nova York, mas é filha de pais brasileiros. A cineasta morou no Rio de Janeiro e em Belo Horizonte quando era criança, e vive há 14 anos em Los Angeles. Apesar de estar há pouco tempo dirigindo produções de TV nos Estados Unidos, já carrega no currículo grandes títulos do universo da fantasia e do terror.Além deste lançamento da Marvel, de 2022 até agora ela dirigiu dois episódios de Wandinha, a série de Tim Burton sobre a adolescente de A Família Addams, e episódios de The Witcher (Netflix) e Dead City, spin-off do sucesso The Walking Dead."Eu ando dirigindo TV nos Estados Unidos há uns 6 anos. Foi a série que menos esperaria que chamou a atenção da Marvel: uma série de terror chamada Brand New Cherry Flavor, que acabou sendo um sucesso underground, um sucesso cult. Eu acho que essa série queria um pouco disso, uma textura um pouco mais cult, mais dark mesmo", revela a cineasta.Cenas dos próximos capítulosGandja revelou à RFI que o foco não é apenas uma carreira em Hollywood, mas internacional. Além de projetos nos Estados Unidos, tem outros no Brasil, onde também já assinou produções como a série documental Outros Tempos e o curta Quase todo dia."Eu acabei de dirigir a série nova do Vince Gilligan, que foi o criador de Breaking Bad. Fiz uma outra série com um ator maravilhoso que é o Sterling K. Brown e a Julianne Nicholson, e estou com vários longas e projetos", antecipa. A atual contração da indústria cinematográfica impacta diretamente o número de empregos e, consequentemente, a representatividade latina e feminina. Com os estúdios priorizando projetos de menor risco, tudo continua "como era antes", avalia a brasileira.Mas, a cineasta é um exemplo de como a resistência e a criatividade florescem mesmo em tempos desafiadores, abrindo caminho para que outras identidades e histórias ganhem mais espaço. "Eu sou brasileira. Nasci nos Estados Unidos, mas meus pais são brasileiros, de Minas. Acho que tudo que eu vivo, tudo que eu penso tem essa pegada. Tem muito Brasil nisso", conclui.

One of our guests from this past summer, Kate Wickers, introduced us to the work of British nonfiction writer Ben Aitken. His books are funny, intelligent, poignant and we're thrilled he agreed to speak with us from his home in London. We chatted with him about his many books, particularly The Marmalade Diaries which was just published in the US in June. Ben is funny in that understated way that Americans like us find charming. The Marmalade Diaries: The True Story of an Odd Couple follows Ben's experience being a millennial lodger with a 80 year old widow as COVID shut everything down in 2020.

On this week's episode, Marc talks about The Witcher Netflix series after rewatching the first season and a bit of the second, a game about cats with nutcracker mouths, another where you kick the shit out of walls to climb them, one that plays itself...literally, another that feels like a mobile game but isn't a mobile game, and one that'll have you repeatedly asking, "What even is this shit?"

They'd been talking about it for a while, the wheelchair, irked by a game that offered players limitless freedom to be whoever they wanted but still struggled to fully represent them. So they did something about it.    A few years later, that Combat Wheelchair add-on for Dungeons & Dragons is on a third edition and has reached right around the world. It got the attention of writers working for D&D maker Wizards of the Coast, inspired bespoke miniature models and was featured by mega-popular Critical Role host Matt Mercer.   That's not all Thompson is known for, though. Thompson is a Witcher encyclopaedia, having been employed to work on the tabletop RPG for R. Talsorian Games. And it was this knowledge which led to a discussion about Geralt of Rivia having a disability, and the discussion went viral, eventually attracting the attention of Witcher Netflix showrunner Lauren Hissrich herself.   These two events propelled Thompson into the public eye, but in between, they've been hard at work on a number of tabletop role-playing games, including Pathfinder, Starfinder, Cyberpunk and many more. They're someone on the stormy cusp of progress, pushing disabled representation in games forward. And this is their story.   Here's a link to the article on Geralt's disability that we talk about: https://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2020-11-24-geralt-of-rivia-a-disabled-protagonist Here's a link to Sara's Combat Wheelchair D&D add-on: https://twitter.com/mustangsart/status/1441390363298570243

In an INCREDIBLE COINCIDENCE, the Witcher's getting a Netflix show just as Game of Thrones comes to a close. So, what better people to cast it than Gav and Dale, who have almost no knowledge of the games? We also discuss why The Handmaid's Tale is so good Joe can't bring himself to watch it anymore, why Farpoint is so VR-y that Dale can't play it anymore, and why Iron Maiden's beer is so beef-like that Gav can't drink it anymore. Plus, your ever-excellent feedback, and another listener-submitted Keyword Countdown. Get it up your ears, stat.
