This was so good, can't wait for folks to see it!

Here's the first poster for my feature film "The Daughters of the Domino." I'm about to be really annoying about this so get ready.

@sideways440.bsky.social is like the coolest guy I know!

The Thing’s Thingy thang be thingin’! Good job Josh Trank!

That may just be it, and my palette is tuned to the cinnamon challenge.

Part of the reason I am so soft on Here We Are is just how much it musically steals from Passion.

Passion is Peak Sondheim and ya'll just don't get it.

WE DID THE SUPERMAN MOVIE! NOT THE NEW ONE! THE OLD ONE THAT BOOMERS LOVED!

Me this week trying to defend Fan4stic on the podcast, despite knowing I'm right.

Finally talking about some got dang art on this podcast. I would also die for calcifer.

The fire talks, the house moves, and we're on a ride! This week we're joined by animator and filmmaker Angelina Starceski to dive into the whacky world of Hayao Miyazaki to talk about the classic of the early aughts Howl's Moving Castle.

Fondly reminiscence about the "Peanuts" comics because returning guest @jessemcanally.bsky.social and I discuss how we would adapt "Schulz and Peanuts: A Biography" by David Michaelis on the latest episode of the Adapt Me Podcast at this link: creators.spotify.com/pod/profile/...

It was so much going off the rails with @jessemcanally.bsky.social on this one, especially when it turned into a shameless ad for Michigan!

🔥 CANDYMAN ALERT! 🔥 This might be the best ep we ever do. Clive Barker's iconic horror masterpiece. Grad students in WAY too deep. Tony Todd's legendary performance. Haven't seen it? Fix that! We're buzzing to discuss! (get it, like beees) bpn.fm/cheese

One of the coolest recordings we’ve ever done!

Hey kids, we've got a special treat for you, we've got not just one episode but TWO this week. This week you can hear us talk about the 90's romantic comedy from Kevin Smith "Chasing Amy" as well an in depth interview with director Sav Rodgers on his film "Chasing Chasing Amy." Bpn.fm/cheese

Opinion: The debate over transgender rights is a liability for Democrats. Here’s how to neutralize it, writes @thirdway.bsky.social think tank co-founder Jonathan Cowan.

Here's how you diffuse it (I'm not linking this pro-genocide article):

"It's weird that you're so obsessed with other people's genitals. Are you thinking about my genitals right now? Also, why do you hate freedom and science?"

What’s new pussycat???? Wooooahahhoo. (Brought to you by McDonalds)

Even something like West Wing and its ...interesting... take on the presidency was aspirational for the GS-9s of the 90s who could see an example of "good governance" and feel like they were making a difference in their own alienating jobs. People need the heroic myths.

Even Atticus needed to be appointed to do the right thing. It's not an efficient system that those with privilege sometimes need prodding before sticking their necks out for the marginalized, but sometimes people need that instruction. Some people need that kick in the butt that reveals injustice.

They recognized that they had privilege and they were able to deploy it to actually do good for people in an unfair system. That stuck with me. Hearing Cory Booker speaking on the Capitol, he told a very similar story of a white lawyer who helped his parents buy a house in a segregated community.

White people need an "Atticus" because they need to realize they have some political agency over the marginalized. In school I learned about a group of white architects in apartheid SA who helped build a black community that would otherwise have been unable to navigate the racist state institutions.

No one asked for my hot take but here goes: People need the Superman character because in a society as alienating as ours, people need aspirational figures to feel they can have any influence on it. Superman is an alien, he's distinct from the rest of the world but he loves it and does good in it.

Brush off your English Major degree because we're flashing back to high school Literature class to talk about one of the greatest novel turned to films ever written -- Harper Lee's "To Kill A Mockingbird."LISTEN AT: Bpn.fm/cheese

Everyone calls Atticus Daddy except his kids.

"Miss Jean Louise? Miss Jean Louise, stand up! You're father's passing."
Instant tears. This episode also lead to some interesting conversations with Mike and I about how we teach people to consume media and literature :)

Listening to the episode, I’m realizing I never actually finished the book cause my freshman year English teacher just decided to skip a bunch of chapters and showed us the court scene from the movie
