    289・In This House We Believe in the Immortal Science

    A time constraint caused us to digress against the clock as hard we we could, and we were joined by Cinema/Canada Correspondent, Cole ["COLES I Need COLES!"] to discuss the 2009 film that time never even remembered to forget: The Trotsky. A tonally confused movie about a high school kid who thinks he's the reincarnation of Leon Trotsky. Leading up to that, we circle around the drain of some Newz items: Trump's insanity; Biden being just as bad, really; geopolitical darkness implacable; Alex Jones losing his shit (in at least two senses); scamming the most ardent and loyal of MAGA jihadi C.H.U.D.s with sexual/political AI; Hollywood's future AI-sloppification; and digressions abound, may a thousand tangents bloom! Recorded on Saturday, April 25th, 2569 B.E. around 11.00 AM Korea Standard Time.  Commiserate on Discord: discord.gg/aDf4Yv9PrY Never Forget: standwithdanielhale.org Genral Recommendations Josh's Recommendation: Fight Club is a good movie actually and I’m annoyed by the soy revisionism and hand-wringing about problematic FANS, etcNOTE: Immovable time constraints limited the recommendations section of the episode.

We talk about RFK, Doordash, South Korean political scandal/mild critique of known crybully Israel, China v.

    287・An Eleventh Hour Pivot to All That Newz

    We shifted away from our prepared movie review plans due to last minute circumstances preventing our Cinema/Canada Correspondant, Cole, from coming on the show today. Also, Josh slept extremely poorly the night before. We still managed to have a grand old time talking about the sick, sad, beautiful, lovely, stupid, fascinating world via this week's Newz avalanches. AI in medicine (and a CEO of a murderous health insurance corporation signals that they still fear Luigian justice). Trump in war and neurocognitive failure/demonic possession. Israel in pure evil. MAGA in shambles, especially in the commentariate. Chuck Kirk in the crosshairs of Joseph Experience Robinette Rogan's hunting rifle?? The Trump admin just stealing money directly from vital programs to put in Donny Dealz personal Bank Account of Peace. Will Josh be endangering himself by entering the nation of his birth? Find out in a few weeks.

    286・Improvising Our Way Through Living Through History

    We mourn the permanent and senseless loss of u/heatdeathpod and celebrate a certain disembodied voice's upcoming nuptials. Joe of the Joe Experience v. Theo von Huxtable. Paul Bet Davidstone v. Lowly Employee. Tammy Duckworth has her priorities all in order as she urges the world to take their shoes off, once again, in order to board an airplane. Yet another pedophile emerges from the Pardoned January 6th-ers set. IRGC: From now on, for every assassination, an American company will be destroyed. Marco "Proud Bloodslut/Slut for Blood" Rubio has somethin' to say! MAGA ladies getting axed from the Admin. BalloonTiddiesGate. Then some inquiry and conversation about what it's like to live in South "Republic of Samsung" Korea. Plus, LIVE breaking news from our dear presinald.

    285・We're the Opposite of Desperate, It Is Actually You Who Are the Ones Who Are Desperate

    A number of Amuse Bouche items involving: robotics, Planes Behaving Badly, expanding ICE, a certain Presinald's mental degradation causing all kinds of unbelievable tremendousness to emerge, Breaking News about Kash Patel's pornographical habits / Iran's nuclear energy sites being bombed, The Hegseth's Prayer, et cetera. Marco Rubio's insane speech at the Munich Security Summit, calling upon the non-barbaric world to run things back to the 1890s. United Nations resolutions revealing all too much about the nature of certain key players.  We then go on a tour of the USA's "backyard" to discuss various updates and happenings in Venezuela, Cuba, Ecuador, Argentina, Colombia, and Honduras.  Recorded on Saturday, March 28th, 2569 B.E. around 11.00 AM Korea Standard Time.  Commiserate on Discord: discord.gg/aDf4Yv9PrY Never Forget: standwithdanielhale.org Genral Recommendations Josh's Recommendations: 1) Water 2) Roofman 3) Send Help 4) I Was There Too + various other projects involving Matt Gourley Tim's Recommendation: Further Reading, Viewing, Listening Show notes + Full list of links, sources, etcEternal thanks to Rm Brown ("King of the Soundboard")More From Timothy Robert Buechner Podcast: Q&T ARE / violentpeople.co Tweets: @ROHDUTCHLocationless Locations heatdeathpod.comEvery show-related link is corralled and available here.Twitter: @heatdeathpodPlease send all Letters of Derision, Indifference, Inquiry, Mild Elation, et cetera to: heatdeathoftheuniversepodcast@gmail.comSend us Fan Mail Support the show Support: patreon / buzzsprout

    284・What If All the Bad Things Were Good Things Instead?

    [ ♪ The Beach Boys' "Wouldn't It Be Nice" ♪ ] Back with another one, we circle the drain with some of The Newz (some embarRICEment and all still mostly quite bad), briefly exploring Josh's own week of manospheric self-improvement (stay tuned for more!), and eventually reaching a discussion about the documentary Louis Theroux: The Manosphere, causing us to wonder: Why is this still relevant? What year is this? Who are these people? Do they actually like sex, even a little? Do they enjoy anything? Is this any different from any other snake oil sales associate kind of scheme from the dawn of mammalian resource hoarding? Which of these guys is the Father, the Son, and the Holy Ghost? And why can't we harness nihilistic grifter energy for good? Why so much bad and not so much good, huh? Recorded on Saturday, March 21st, 2569 around 11.00 AM Korea Standard Time.  Commiserate on Discord: discord.gg/aDf4Yv9PrY Never Forget: standwithdanielhale.org Genral Recommendations Josh's Recommendations: 1) A Different World (plus an exhaustive LLM-generated response to my question about the strange half-remembered sensation about the show and its cultural legacy) and 2) Ben Norton | Oil war: US war on Iran aims to save petrodollar and global dollar dominanceTim's Recommendation: None (Editor's note: but here's the upside to nothingness)Further Reading, Viewing, Listening Show notes + Full list of links, sources, etcEternal thanks to Rm Brown ("King of the Soundboard")More From Timothy Robert Buechner Podcast: Q&T ARE / violentpeople.co Tweets: @ROHDUTCHLocationless Locations heatdeathpod.comEvery show-related link is corralled and available here.Twitter: @heatdeathpodPlease send all Letters of Derision, Indifference, Inquiry, Mild Elation, et cetera to: heatdeathoftheuniversepodcast@gSend us Fan Mail Support the show Support: patreon / buzzsprout

    283・Don't Look Directly Into The Blaring Light (Just Glide 'round the Rink With Your Pals)

    Desperately needing to crawl into the past toward our mommies because The News is too much to bear, not only to read about compulsively but to then also spend further time trying to deal with via talking into microphones.  So we very intentionally decided to do the most wholesome thing we could think of and discuss the Mighty Ducks film franchise, specifically 1992 original, which exposed the viciousness of the competive non-professional hockey world, introduced a generation to the real life consequences of drunk driving, and inspired generations of children further still to play hockey and quack, often simultaneously. Digressions abound as well. Joined today by two special guests, Jason Newland of once full-time podcast (this very one) co-host reknown, and returning guest Cole, our cinema/Canada correspondent.  Recorded on Saturday, March 14th, 2569 around 11.00 AM Korea Standard Time.  Commiserate on Discord: discord.gg/aDf4Yv9PrY Never Forget: standwithdanielhale.org Genral Recommendations Cole's Recommendation: Play some Minute Cryptic while listening to ToolJason's Recommendation: Haikyu!!Josh's Recommendations: 1) Predator: Badlands 2) Good Luck, Have Fun, Don't Die 3) Cities By DianaTim's Recommendation: Think about how "Schism" would sound if the lyrics were "I know the penis fits."Further Reading, Viewing, Listening Show notes + Full list of links, sources, etcEternal thanks to Rm Brown ("King of the Soundboard")More From Timothy Robert Buechner Podcast: Q&T ARE / violentpeople.co Tweets: @ROHDUTCHLocationless Locations heatdeathpod.comEvery show-related link is corralled and available here.Twitter: @heatdeathpodPlease send all Letters of Derision, Indifference, Inquiry, Mild Elation, et cetera to: heatdeathoftheuniversepodcast@gmail.comSend us Fan Mail Support the show Support: patreon / buzzsprout
