The Matrix: Resurrections, or Assigned Morpheus At Birth (feat. Violet)

Divergent opinions on this episode as friend of the show Violet (@paradeofviolets) joins us to discuss this peculiar and belated fourth outing in the iconic turn of the millennium action sci-fi series. Whether or not you think it's good, it's certainly interesting and marks an artistically sincere change of pace from the usual franchise and 'legacy sequel' faire. Discussions include: Making art under threat, what it means to be sincere, gender identity & trans art, ideology & social control, the dream of revolutionary pop culture, takes on the original film and suffering from success. The Matrix... is a land of contrasts.   A special thanks to our $10 Executive Producers: Isaac, Porridge Fist, Walt Lewellyn of The Black Casebook, Tropical Doves, Jim, jprestonpoole, Sam, Lohik, bernventers, Owen2, and Ronnie Gardocki.   If you can, please lend some support to these organizations: Fundraisers related to Los Angeles 2025 fires PCRF (Palestinian Children's Relief Fund) MAP (Medical Aid for Palestinians) National Networks of Abortion Funds Thank you for listening!
