    Introducing Quiet Quitting: Why Women Are Emotionally Checking Out of Their Marriage from The Oprah Podcast. Follow the show: The Oprah Podcast BUY THE BOOKS! The Balancing Act by Nedra Tawab Glover Secure Love by Julia Menanno Last fall, an article in The Cut entitled “The Women Quietly Quitting Their Husbands” went viral, putting words to something many women around the country have been quietly experiencing. The article focused on the phenomena of women in their 40’s who have emotionally detached from their marriages but have chosen to stay rather than go through the drama, expense and ordeal of a divorce. In this episode Oprah sits down with Monica Corcoran Harel the journalist who wrote the article, Nedra Glover Tawwab author of The Balancing Act and Julie Menanno author of Secure Love to discuss why many women are choosing to stay in their marriages despite being unhappy or unfulfilled. We also hear from several women who say they have “quietly quit” their marriages and want to know how to navigate their relationships despite feeling disconnected from their husbands.

    The Odyssey in IMAX

    Christopher Nolan's The Odyssey is undoubtedly this summer's blockbuster cinema experience. It's the first movie to be shot entirely with IMAX 70 mm film cameras, which have superior resolution and an aspect ratio much taller than most commercial cinemas. If you want to see it as the director intended, you need to see it at an IMAX theater, preferably one of the 25 in North America that are showing it on 70 mm film. List of IMAX theaters - https://imax.fandom.com/wiki/List_of_IMAX_venues List of 70mm theaters - https://www.in70mm.com/country/usa/cinemas/2023/index.htm Comparison of aspect ratios - https://movieweb.com/the-odyssey-viewing-formats-compared/ Host: Scott Wilkinson Download or subscribe to Home Theater Geeks at https://twit.tv/shows/home-theater-geeks Join Club TWiT for Ad-Free Podcasts!

    PlayStation Ditches Discs

    Sony made two disturbing announcements recently—first, it is removing over 500 StudioCanal movies from its online PlayStation Store, so that people who bought those titles will no longer have access to them. Second, Sony will no longer sell games for the PlayStation on physical discs. Is this the start of the slippery slope that leads to the death of physical media more generally?
