The brothers are back, after a long silence!

To start off our second season, we tackle Martin Scorsese's film adaption SILENCE, and Makoto Fujimura's recent book "Art + Faith." How are we to look at faith in the light of suffering? Can anything good come from trauma? Is there any purpose to art, and it is a worthwhile response to our world?

In this episode, we try to discuss these and other challenging questions raised by these artists.

Want to say good riddance to 2021? Do it in style with the brothers this month, as we conquer the topics of friendship, loyalty, and betrayal in the works of two renowned artists. First, we venture into outer- and inner-space in Frederick Pohl's award-winning novel "Gateway," then we talk through the merits of Orson Welles's landmark film CHIMES AT MIDNIGHT. Along the way we explore how each artist portrays the complexities of human relationships and duty, and issue a fond farewell to these characters, to Season 1 of the podcast, and to 2021.

The brothers are back! Join us this month as we gaze upon the stars with the likes of Bill Forsyth, Richard Powers, and even Wedge Antilles himself. First, we discuss Forsyth's 1983 film LOCAL HERO, and its portrayal of globalization, environmental issues, and the charm of small-town life. We also discuss Powers's latest novel, "Bewilderment," and its approach to similar concerns, and to the topic of life itself. Should be a magnificent evening together! Feedback?

What does it mean to pursue truth? What does it look like to be genuine and gracious in the face of greed and pride? Join the brothers this month as we take on these questions as addressed in the work of Flannery O' Connor. First, we discuss John Huston's film adaptation of her novel WISE BLOOD, then we mull over her short story "Everything That Rises Must Converge." Feedback? Shoot us a note at [email protected].

This month, the brothers take a trip halfway around the world to explore two works by great Indian artists. First we discuss Salman Rushdie's classic novel "Midnight's Children," then we cover the pivotal 1960 film DEVI by Satyajit Ray. Along the way we learn much about the rich and wonderful history and culture of India, and how they have been impacted by religion and Western influences. Join us on the journey! Feedback?

We're back! Like the subjects of this episode, the brothers have been in hiding. But now that we've been flushed out into the open, you might as well come along with us on this ride! Join us as we cover the late Charles Grodin's genius in the 1988 film MIDNIGHT RUN. In the second half, we discuss the themes of knowledge and interpersonal relations in Percival Everett's short story "Finding Billy White Feather." And as always, see if you can find the obligatory Futurama quote.

Ready for a little magic in your life? Then join the brothers this month as we try to "spell" out the best parts of Naomi Novik's "Uprooted" and then talk about the "cast" of Ingmar Bergman's THE MAGICIAN. You'll be enchanted by our conversation! Comments? Questions? Just want to say hello? Follow us on twitter @seehearbrother, or shoot us a note at [email protected].

Welcome to episode 4 of See/Hear Brother! This time around we tackle Brit Bennett's acclaimed novel "The Vanishing Half", then explore the silliness and fun of Danny Kaye in THE COURT JESTER. And yes, we know that "April Fool's" usually has an apostrophe. No emails about the title, please. It was done on purpose. Or was it? Follow us on Twitter @seehearbrother or drop us a note by email at [email protected]. We'd love to hear your comments and feedback!

This month, in honor of Black History Month, we celebrate notable Black artists. We have a deep discussion about Spike Lee's epic biopic, MALCOLM X. Then we make our first attempt at discussing poetry, covering the Pulitzer-winning poetry collection "Life on Mars" by Tracy K. Smith.
