Black Mirror Season 4
Welcome to our coverage of Black Mirror, where you’ll never know whether you’ll have a heart wrenching or heart warming experience, but it will definitely revolve around the implications of technology and culture. From Star Trek simulations, ultimate dating apps, and murderous robotic dogs, this season hits some amazing highs, but for the first time also hits some fairly deep lows. Or maybe what’s most amazing is how the show remains fresh and original four years into it’s creative process?Join the discussion: Email | ForumsFollow us: Twitter | Instagram | FacebookLeave Us A Review on Apple Podcastse Learn more about your ad choices.

The Lost Boys (1987)
Special thanks to Saylor who selected the 1997 vampire flick, The Lost Boys. Chocked equally full of cool and hilarious moments as well as extremely questionable decisions, the film both confounds and delights. Why is 16 year old Corey Haim taking baths and being tucked into bed by his mother? Why is there a shirtless oiled up, muscle bound sax player? Why is Rob Lowe gazing seductively from Haim’s bedroom closet? Why is Jim completely oblivious to his siren’s call? Is the grandpa a vampir Learn more about your ad choices.

American Psycho (2000)
Today’s podcast was commissioned by Rylan who has commissioned the 2000 slasher/satire/thriller, American Psycho. Directed by Mary Harron and starring Christian Bale, the movie is dark, disturbing, hilarious in places, and provoked a lot of thoughts and opinions from Jim and I. What does it mean to be a sociopath, how much of this film is reality and how much is fantasy, what does it say about society and the conflict between our stated and actual values?

Black Rain (1989)
Special thanks to Sean Ray for commissioning this late 80’s Ridley Scott crime thriller, Black Rain. Michael Douglas plays a cop alongside Andy Garcia that gets mixed up in a gang war between the Yakuza and a rival upstart over counterfeit US currency. The film explores the intercultural exchange as Douglas’s corrupt and brash NYC cop runs into the brick wall of Japanese police decorum and honor, but how successful it is in that exploration is an open question.

The Post (2017)
We saw The Post tonight, the star-studded retelling of The Washington Post’s decision to publish the Pentagon Papers, risking financial ruin and jail time. Told from the perspective of The Post's owner and her editor as they wrestle with their relationships with previous and current presidential administrations and the legal, financial, and ethical risks of defying the government. The film is gorgeous and well written and tells an important story of how vital a free press is to the health of our na Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Dr. Strangelove (1964)
Today’s commissioned podcast is one for the pantheon, Stanley Kubrick’s 1964 masterpiece of satire, Dr. Strangelove. Kubrick set out to make a nuclear thriller, but instead decided to lean heavily into the existential absurdism that was and still is the world’s nuclear weapon deterrent, mutual assured destruction. Hey, it’s worked for sixty years, let’s keep the streak going! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
