The Portfolio of Life

Finding Nemo has been fully watched, including the turtle scene this time. RJ returns with an official updated review — same five categories, same seven-duckie scale — and the scores have moved. Some significantly. Meanwhile, a Mother's Day gift spent six days in the Dallas regional facility before anyone told it to leave, RJ walks through the entire tracking history in real time, and somehow it's riveting. Then: Mark's six to eight carousels of 35mm slides from his Seattle photography days, why old film has a shelf life that nobody thinks about until it's too late, and what it actually takes to digitize 25 reels of eight millimeter home movies from 1956. Chimp Crazy has also finally been watched. There are no words. Watch it.In this episode:• Finding Nemo review number two: updated scores across all five categories now that the turtle scene has been seen• Why the turtle scene bumped the story/plot score from one duckie to three — and why RJ is now selling it harder than Mark did• Andrew Stanton: director, voice of Crush, and the thing RJ looked up that he didn't expect• Final score: 26 out of 35 duckies. Mark's still at 29. The gap has narrowed.• The Mother's Day package: Palestine TX post office, priority mail, and six days of going in circles in Dallas• A step-by-step walkthrough of the USPS tracking history that has absolutely no business being as compelling as it is• Chimp Crazy: Mark and Christina have watched it. Jaw on the floor, multiple times, per episode. It's on HBO Max. Four episodes. Watch it.• Kesha's Joyride: a banger attached to a music video that has no business being attached to it• Mark's Seattle photography era — waterfalls, Gasworks Park, slide film, and six to eight carousels nobody has looked at in decades• Digitizing 25 reels of eight millimeter home film from 1956: the machine that worked, the DVD process that didn't, and the truck that saved the day• What happens to old film if nobody does anything about it — and why now is always the right timeEmail us at [email protected] check out our website at https://www.setcenter.liveFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/setcenterliveYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@setcenterliveInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/setcenterlive
