    101. The Failure of Orson Welles w/ Darius Csiky

    Zoomer Orson Welles protege joins me for a Citizen Kane-like adventure through the entire career of the man who believed in magic perhaps too much -- or, perhaps, too little. We look at almost every film he made, we lean in for his radio, we applaud his theater, we gasp at his tricks and read his biography ("Rosebud" by David Thomson). Maybe we can find out what this giant boy was missing... With Darius Csiky host of 8pl8s podcast Part 1 of 2. For the upcoming second half, double the overall episodes, and smoke break mini-eps, subscribe to the show at patreon.com/filthyarmenian   Hope to see you there.  X/insta @filthyarmenian

    99. Bob Dylan: The Unknown Ideal

    I review the Oscar-nominated biopic A Complete Unknown, before reprising my own interactive case for Bob Dylan the artist, the man, and the prophet on a mission to make America great again.   Originally aired in 2023 as "Bob Dylan on Hollywood Blvd. Vol 1 & 2," this is one of my deepest most personal solo adventures, full of outlandish historical claims that might be fun to compare to how things are turning out.   For access to twice as many adventures, including the most intimate and important ones, plus regular smoke-break mini eps on topics of the day please subscribe to the show at patreon.com/filthyarmenian   Follow us on X/insta @filthyarmenian
