Ozone Nightmare

This week, we open with a wide range of subjects, from lip plumper to the PS3 to HD porn. From there I show Lando a weapon in Fallout 3 he goes all lovey over, and we each talk a bit about how we're playing that game and what we think of it . After that, we move into the power of manufactured myth on American culture. From flight jackets to nationalism, we turn our eyes on the lies we tell ourselves as individuals and nations. Also, Volkswagen Toe Rags and Space Foxes. Enjoy!Opening Music: "Alive WIP v2" by George CarpenterClosing Music: "Blau.ton" by Rauschwerk

This week, we open with the discussion and dissection of a lurching hunk of worthless cinema called Drawing Restraint 9. After we tear that apart, we talk a bit about false advertising and then move into the divergent approaches to fixing the economic meltdown that are fighting for dominance. Finally, we talk about one of the great strange items of interest in the homeland: the ever burning town of Centralia, Pennsylvania. Some things you just can't make up.

Episode 4 of the thirty here for ya. This episode: a live concert comparison review of my recent trip to see the Reverend Horton Heat, and then my current impressions on playing Fallout 3.Theme Music: "Nature Of The Experiment" by Tokyo Police Club

This week we're doing a show with a bit of fluff and some hopefully interesting substance. We open talking about a movie we saw recently, the stop-motion feature Coraline. After that, we move into the meat of the show as we examine technologies are so woven into the fabric of daily life that we don't even notice it anymore. Fire, shoes, the phone....all so common we barely notice them, but how critical do they become when they're gone?

You'll have to excuse my voice this week, not sure why it was so rough but it was. We start off this week witht the question of what does 'buying American' mean, and does it even apply any more in our highly globalized society? This leads us to wonder if we arriving at a disconnect in our culture that is leading to issues like the recent salmonella peanut butter outbreak.

This week we're just floating along, no particular heading but still much on the sea to see. We start with some musings on the interesting effects of editorial changes in movies, triggered specifically with the changes made to the recent film Taken. The editing discussion gradually becomes a dialogue on censorship, and specifically on the boundaries of what we call censorship. We talk a bit about the recent California BART shooting, then blaze through some other much less important stories that have gotten bigger coverage, for example this one or the Christian Bale meltdown. Moving on, I espouse my love of Cracked.com, which bizarrely enough leads into a discussion on past military conflicts and also the power of mythology. Finally, we touch on the deep underlying philosophical meanings behind the Bill Murray film Groundhog Day.

This week we decide to see what our version of a train wreck show will be like. No structure, not everyone even showing up on time, along with some sound effects that may unseat Lando's chewing as the most annoying thing in the background yet.

This week Lando and I are discussing a wide range of topics, starting out with what finally put me over in deciding which TV survivalist I like better. After that, we move into the awesomely alternative Alzheimer's helmet that Terry Pratchett is using before talking about the new WETA blunderbuss and whether Steve Jobs has the right to alter the truth about his health. Finally, we discuss the big presidential inauguration and what it means to us, if anything. Enjoy!Opening Music: "Alive WIP v2" by George CarpenterClosing Music: "Blau.ton" by Rauschwerk

After a quick break, we're back examining another oft-argued aspect of the human condition: dominion over the Earth. Do we as the most powerful species on the planet have a right to rule over this planet? Is survival of the fittest the way it should be, or is there a greater morality at play than that which we govern mostly ourselves by? A tricky topic, and another in which there seems to be no truly right answer. Enjoy!Opening Music: "Alive WIP v2" by George CarpenterClosing Music: "Blau.ton" by Rauschwerk
