  • Hey, no worries. I think that the movie really is a marvel in the way it imagines the fundamental human condition - the individual and the community - in this amazing way despite the obvious Christian stuff.

    Nothing more sublime than Donna Reed’s breathless “They’re coming George!” The finale of the movie is really something special. Your late father had good taste. It’s a humanist (in the best sense) masterpiece.

    I might write more next year but when I post about it I’m usually fairly drunk and weepy.




  • Hyperfixed isn’t exclusively male/masculine, but Alex is a good host and interviewer. His journey to India to meet a scammer in Reply All is still legendary. The premise of the new show is like his old Super Tech Support bit, trying to dig into things like “why do grocery stores in the US have open coolers when that seems really wasteful”.

    Also, obviously part of the bullshitting/hanging out genre is Chapo, but also “If Books Could Kill” is very enjoyable.
