Next episode of Word Wednesday comes out : November 3, 2021

LISTENER DISCRETION ADVISED !!!

Daniel and I *finally* watch Carrie : The Musical whilst we hang out for 6 hours on Neptune and talk about it.

We discuss our expectations and hopes for the musical, do some bibliomancy, and contemplate: are we theatre people?  After a break (you won’t even know we took) we come back and talk about our *two* podcast shows and wonder : what will Daniel be up to in December ? Do I know how to sing Old McDonald? You’ll be surprised at the results ! Then, please to enjoy our "Two Podcasting Friends Try Japanese Treats" segment, mentioned in Ep.2 of this series, as Daniel tries the Japanese “beeru” on air whilst we discuss what we think absinthe is.  

During intermission Daniel takes the wheel and uses a lot of big words.  We discuss another version of Margret White, the virtues of watching the musical on 2x speed,  The World According to Chris, all while I have amnesia and disconnect from what’s happening,!

When it’s over Daniel sings a bunch, we talk about the irreplaceable Tommy Ross, the cliche of Carrie, discuss (again) if we are indeed watching a horror musical, the legacy of Brian De Palma’s Carrie, elusive thoughts, troubling themes in Stephen King's work, *acting* and more, more, more!

At the very end we give our ratings for our favorite Carrie incarnations, casting choices, memorable moments and more !!!

Come back next week when we discuss the 1952 movie Carrie and don’t forget to check out our Carrie Inspired playlist on Apple Music.

Enter the void with Daniel Honey and myself, Cory Lovejoy !   

Good news ! I still have a knack for interrupting Daniel!  Bad News ! We are talking about Carrie 2 : The Rage from 1999, directed by Katt Shea !   Despite our best efforts, we manage to do this for about an hour, when our conversation turns towards other thoughts like : have we been in Polynesia all this time?  Daniel tells a story about Everyday Magic (1 hour 21 min. ) while on a trip to Chicago and I tell a true Ghost Story (1 hour 29 min) about a Palais de Papes in Avingon, France 

More words we say during this episode : The Tool Time Kid, The Unending Cruelty of a Small Town in Maine, CD Art, Mena Suvari, I Love Entrails, Nick and Noras Infinite Playlist, baby bird feeding, The Piano, virginity myths + expiration dates, Brian de Palma, analog, nuts in the pool, awards I don't know the names of, underwater acting, Wilson/Watson the dog, The Intimacy and Genuis of Stephen King, Carrie-esque Patrol, fasting, Edward Sharp and The (no longer) Magnetic Zeros, the mouse trap guy, and Daniel gives song suggestions, whilst I reminisce about the 1990's by bringing up things like : Swing Kids, Scream, and black fingernail polish.  

More Links for things we mention in this episode :  Edward Sharp and The Magnetic Zeros, Bloody Sunday Session, Carrie 3 Ways (side by sides of Carrie films from 1976, 2002, 2013) Woodstock 99: Peace, Love, and Rage - HBO Documentary, A Walk on the Moon (1999 film)

We also talk about stuff they did in this film that we have been waiting to see and  haven't seen in the other Carrie movies, smoking hot Miss Desjardin, have a conversation about gender that I said I would never have, Freddie Prince Jr., manifesting a hearse to podcast out of, Daniel's views on Neo-Liberal Feminism, and I finally say Piper Laurie's name.

Part Two of mine and @tturqueza 's four hour long conversation that was clearly Joe Rogan's fault.  The first part of this episode might trigger certain listeners, but you can listen to it in my intro instead of reading about it here.

We also talk : "Standards of Excellence", how we use tools, sitting with things to understand them better, what seeing the moon implies, the filter of disconnection, the villain archetype & process, journeying thru Harry Potter with a 2021 mindset, and Hawaiian Mythology book thoughts.  

Plus we talk more about death throes, perspectives, which version of Jesus is which, podcasting as "Artist Therapy", Travis' career as Asian Villian #2, and we eat taquitos into a microphone because there is no plan, motherfucker !
