Tree of Life (right click OR click)

Recorded during the festivities of our Year 4 anniversary party the Tree of Life podcast includes Malcolm, Ben, Joshua, Seth, and Ian. As we shift around in this immortal net it is nice to know that there are others out there who could take up the Futile Mantle, should that be required.

Mad Max: Beyond Thunderdome (right click or click)

Ian is joined by Matt, Joshua, Mychal, and Malcolm to talk about the closing chapter of the Mad Max saga. Three cheers for 80′s pop saxophone, shooting on location and bad ass set design! Oh and a meaningful post apocalyptic story with dare I say a hint of optimism.

This is a good movie and a pretty solid podcast from Joshua and Ian (me).  I have to admit that I enjoyed this film much more on a second viewing when it was further removed from dashed expectations.

"Thank you, there are only 13 shows left."

After a long period to allow the earth to cool Ian embarks on viewing this Cameron cash cow. What will he think? … ? Listen to find out.
