The Conversation Show: ’Skinamarink’; a double feature of ’Lost in Translation,’ and ’Her’; a bit on De La Soul

Episode 15

Saturday, February 25, 2023 • Duration 01:40:41

It's a packed episode, Screamers. We look at both 'Lost in Translation' and 'Her' as a kind of double feature. And we interrogate the false construct of cross-influence between their creators. We get lost in the murk and digital noise of lo-fi horror hit (?) 'Skinamarink.' There's also a melancholy-tinged, but impassioned, discussion of De La Soul, the influential hip hop group, after the passing of Trugoy the Dove. Stick around for some movie recommendations.

May Madness Pt.2: ’Mikey and Nicky’ and ’Ishtar’

Episode 14

Saturday, February 11, 2023 • Duration 01:59:01

Welcome to May Madness Part Two, Screamers. In this episode we're talking "Mikey (not Mickey) and Nicky" and the much derided, but not as bad as you remember, "Ishtar." We also talk about the films screened at the recently held Reel House Foundation Mini Movie Marathon Six. Other unanswerable questions: does altruism exist? what would a remake of "Mikey and Nicky" look like? who really should've starred in "Ishtar"? Thanks for listening and keep screaming.
