Astral Flight Simulation

Today we focus on Tarantino's later films, which I consider to be everything after Kill Bill Vol. 2

My guests are Spendo, who was on the first episode, and Isaac Simpson, who has been on this show three times before and has his own excellent podcast, which I've appeared on several times, The Carousel.

Charles Haywood joins me once again, this time to discuss Elon Musk and the future of American politics. This episode was based on his review of a recent biography of Elon Musk, published on his blog The Worthy House. I highly recommend everyone go read through this blog, it's an education in history and political philosophy in and of itself.

I discuss Freud with Garfieldbot, writer at "The Egg Report" on substack. He's writing a long series of articles reconsidering many of Freuds ideas, which he thinks are embedded in the framework of the modern individuals understanding of themselves, their relation to the world, and the primary mode of describing human interactions for all of the 20th century.

Perhaps now its time for people like us to dispel these ideas, and you can do so without reading a now out of print book, The Ordeal of Civility, by John Murray Cuddihy. This book goes a long way to undermine the veneer of science and professionalism that Freud tried to cloak his rather petty ideas in.

Today, we go into detail about some of Cuddihy's critiques of Freud. Follow me on substack and twitter, and please become a paid subscriber to my substack to help support me continue to bring this show to you, and gain access to content not otherwise available.

I make the case that American Psycho is a failed feminist critique of toxic masculinity, but succeeds as a film, with Bateman as the hero, despite the directors best efforts.

I then veer off wildly and give a details breakdown of the difference in narrative structure between film vs digital storytelling, and explain the characteristics of post-modern film, of which American Psycho is one of the last.

This episode was recorded live on twitter last year, follow me @astralflite and listen live and join the conversation. There's another hour of discussion available now on astralflight.substack.com, along with much more content than you'll get on iTunes or Spotify.

Part of the ongoing series in Overcoming Nihilism, Athenian Stranger and I discuss Ernst Junger's essay "Across the Line" and Martin Heidegger's Essay "The Origin of the Work of Art" as a way to introduce what the work of art is, how nihilism erodes it, and what it can offer as a way to resist the seemingly inexorable pull of nihilism.
