Episode 222 – HIGH LIFE

Runtime 73 minutes Show Contents: 0:00 Introduction 2:51 Know Your Enemy: Bob Turnbull 25:24 The New Slang: HIGH LIFE 62:57 The Other Side: Bob and Ryan talk further reading after Claire Denis’ new film Thoughts From Your Host… If you know anything about me, you know that I love me my superheroes. The last six months or so have had them front and centre in my brain. So is it strange to be leaving the biggest comic book event off this podcast in the name of a cerebral sci-fi film far fewer people have seen? Maybe a little. However, as much fun as I’ve been having discussing ENDGAME with all of my friends, I like having singular discussions about projects that are a little more off the beaten path. Heck, I promise you that if I dedicated this episode to ENDGAME, it wouldn’t have come with near as much cursing. Think I don’t use the F-word enough on this show? Get ready. And so it goes that a show recorded during one Raptors playoff game and published during another comes to pass. I sincerely hope that I’m still distracted by The Heroes of The Hardcourt by the time 223 rolls around!
