Really True Fiction episodes
- Ep. 39 - Lightyear's Cave - (Toy Story)
Andys coming! Hope you enjoy our foray into the Disney/Pixar world. This one was such a blast to do and it was wonderful reliving this movie. What a gem.
Additional Spoilers:
Brave Little Toaster 3:10
Toy Story 2 1:11:50 and 1:15:18
1 hr 28 min - Ep. 38 - Ennui Universal - (Children Of Men - Book)
We close the loop on Children of Men. The book is much more meditative on the world and society than the movie; so we flesh that part out a little bit more. We don't talk so much about a world without children here; as we did that a lot in the movie episode. This one was a lot of fun though; enjoy!
Additional Spoilers:
The Great Gatsby 1:25
The Brothers Karamazov 1:03:50
1 hr 25 min - Ep. 37 - Futures - (Children Of Men - Movie)
Part one of a two parter on this story. We read the book as well, but decided it deserved it's own episode as the plots between the movie and book are so different. Ergo, here is the movie for you! We are really proud of this one, and hope you enjoy it as well.
*Additional Spoilers*
Inferno (Big Spoiler) - 27:45
The Stand - 28:15
Saving Private Ryan - 32:56
1 hr 55 min - Ep. 36 - Deep Optimism - (The Dark Knight Rises)
In which the conclusion of this amazing trilogy is achieved. Hope you enjoy the Dark Knight trilogy this go around as much as we did.
Additional Spoilers:
The Master 12:10
Stranger Things Season 1 1:37:38
1 hr 48 min - Ep. 35 - Gratuitous Nihilism - (The Dark Knight)
Never go full Thanatos! Here is the episode you deserve, if certainly not the one you need. We do a pretty deep dive into the psychological/philosophical differences between the Joker and Batman in this one. The first hour is pretty ethereal as such. If you want more tangible stuff, the second hour is for you!
2 hr - 1 hr 30 min
- Ep. 33 - The Best There Is - (Catch 22)
Welcome to 2020! In this episode we talked about the classic and hilarious Joseph Heller novel Catch 22; one of the all time satires. If you haven't read this book before, I would encourage you do before listening to this podcast. Some books are not necessary to read before listening but this one is. It is non-linear and there are lots of characters, so your reference for what we are talking about will be a lot easier if you have read the book. Cheers!
Additional Spoilers:
The Trial 14:05
House of Cards 29:00
Hacksaw Ridge 1:23:15
2 hr 8 min - Ep. 32 - Injustice Shrugged - (The Crucible)
Apologies for any ambient sound for the first 45 minutes on this one. We had the furnace blasting. Lesson learned. Either way, it didn't affect this episode too bad. This one was a lot of fun and you can hear the passion in both of us in our feelings about The Crucible. Cheers!
1 hr 59 min - Ep. 31 - Merry Christmas! - (The Lion, The Witch, And The Wardrobe)
Merry Christmas everyone! We hope that you enjoy the season with your family, and enjoy taking another trip through the wardrobe. Also, we riff for about 15 minutes on How The Grinch Stole Christmas.
Additional Spoiler:
Inception 18:20
1 hr 38 min - Ep. 30 - Trapped - (There Will Be Blood)
This was a fun one talking about the film There Will Be Blood. Enjoy!
Correction
Matthew McConaughey does commercials for Lincoln, not Lexus.
