Between the Borderlands: Miracle on Dirty Thought Street (E308)

The debate continues. Jason Hobbs (Random Screed, Hobbs & Friends podcast) and MW Lewis (The Worlds of MW Lewis podcast) call in to convince me that Nausicaä is mooning us all. See the case for the defence below… Exhibit A: https://www.reddit.com/r/ghibli/comments/q9z5j6/is_anybody_else_bothered_by_all_the_gratuitous/ Exhibit B: https://anime.stackexchange.com/questions/32328/does-nausica%C3%A4-wear-underpants-and-if-not-what-outside-universe-reason-is-there Exhibit C: https://nausicaa.fandom.com/f/p/3083158488613143982 Exhibit D: https://discuss.panzerdragoonlegacy.com/t/nausicaas-ass/774 Find the Movie Monday Letterboxd list here https://letterboxd.com/the39thman/list/movie-monday-1/ The movie for December is Mike Hodges’ 1980s camp classic Flash Gordon. That episode will air on December 29th, so please send your submissions by the 27th if you’d like to be included in the show. Also, be sure not to miss the new podcast I’m involved with, entitled With Wife and I. My wife, Isla, suggested we take turns to choose movies to watch together, then share our thoughts with anyone who cares to listen. Our second episode is already available, pitting Neil Jordan’s Byzantium against Kathryn Bigelow’s Near Dark. This is a public episode.
