Thousand Movie Project

Wherein the narrator speaks with the author of one of his favorite books from the past year, HIS VERY BEST, a comprehensive and propulsive biography of Jimmy Carter, 39th President of the United States.

Also, in the monologue at the top of the show: Jimmy Carter, "Third Accidental President"; that maybe Carter's downfall is foretold in the triumph of ROCKY over TAXI DRIVER at the 1977 Academy Awards; Grimm fairy tales, ONCE UPON A TIME IN HOLLYWOOD, and Reagan.

A brief episode wherein the narrator, while stone off the very mildest weed, riffs about how he needs to get better at relaxing, it's better being an adult than a teenager, and his ongoing project (in preparation for interviewing the filmmaker Charles Band) of watching Full Moon's catalogue of movies.

Wherein the narrator talks about his gambler friend, the drama surrounding a Michael Jordan rookie card, how he tried and failed to major in psychology thinking he could become a sex therapist and, finally, how Jimmy Carter makes it seem like being an ex-president is really frustrating.

Wherein the narrator, who is personally incapable of not talking, sings the virtue of his affliction, and encourages you to skim a newspaper's front page every morning for a week.

Wherein the narrator quits his job of seven years and decides to tackle podcasting as a part-time job.
