you can love a character and still admit when they're wrong. we love Shadow but we can acknowledge his flaws (he has none) and we can hold him accountable for his wrongdoings (he has never done anything wrong in his life) and call him out on his actions (which are always correct)

This was a BLAST. @hsblechman.bsky.social and Overbye talk the philosophy underlying Hannah's #1 movie. It's a good day to listen.

So @authorizedpod.bsky.social did you cover this yet? Apparently it’s a novelization of a game written by Hannah’s arch-nemesis Alan Dean Foster.

Superb book review!

I'm back on @authorizedpod.bsky.social talking about Phillip Rock's pretty excellent adaptation of Don Siegel's DIRTY HARRY. It's the @hsblechman.bsky.social season, for which all of you punks should feel lucky.

The thing about John Jakes is, this book is probably deeply profound.

Sometimes you're looking through old sci fi novel covers, and you have to share one.

Outstanding episode.

And Bilge pulling out Raoul Walsh playing John Wilkes Booth in BIRTH OF A NATION was high five-worthy.

Wondering if Hannah would have accepted Jason Schwartzman.
