Johnny Mnminute

This week we discuss various punchable faces, then Johnny gets traced and has to run from the Yakuza. The minute ends with the heralding of a long-awaited event.

Johnny has a contact in cyberspace, and he may have to flex a little bit to get the info he needs out of him. Meanwhile the Yakuza are hot on his heels, and they have a weapon.

Your hosts almost forget to talk about the election, then head back into cyberspace with Johnny for some hax & fax, buffers that is. He gets the info and is off to visit his buddy Strike.

Johnny gets elbow deep into cyberspace as he hacks the hotel in Beijing, finds the info, and relates it all to Jane in real-space. We go frame by frame and see just what the 'net looks like in the futuristic world of 2021.

This week we discuss music, virtual reality's representation in cyberpunk fiction, and of course we watch the 40th minute of Johnny Mnemonic, in which Johnny is a 1337 hax0r.

Much more interesting minute this week as Johnny yells at Jane, then they go into a high tech computer shop and scavenge Johnny up the hardware for some good ol' fashioned hacking.

This week's pointless minute rehashes information we already knew in a subway tunnel we are already sick of. If that doesn't sell the podcast I don't know what will.

This week your hosts vaguely talk about something that could happen and that it might make them cautiously happy maybe, but won't say what it is. Then they watch Johnny have flashbacks in slow motion.

This week we dissect the 36th minute of Johnny Mnemonic which just happens to line up perfectly with a 58 second scene in Takahashi's office.

Your hosts don't have the heart to do much dystopia talk this week, so we hustle into the 35th minute of Johnny Mnemonic which is a dialog-heavy walk and talk in an abandoned subway. Johnny explains his situation to Jane, then has a seizure.
