    The Value Of Creation

    The Value Of Creation

    1200Today on the 5: Spotify CEO Daniel Ek recently made some statements that angered a lot of musicians. While nothing that was sauid really surprises me coming fronm a company that is not exactly beloved by the creative community, it does highlight another aspect of creativity that is misunderstood.

    Adumbral Twin

    Today on the 5: The CEO of Zoom thinks in the next few years we'll all be able to skip meetings by sending a "personal LLM" to attend for us. While I'm certainly pleased a major CEO is tacitly acknowledging how pointless most meetings are, I'm not sure he's thought this concept all the way through.

    Oblivion 2 Backlash Retro Review

    Oblivion 2 Backlash Retro Review

    Today on the 5: I came across a movie that looked like something from a slice of time that no longer exists. The video is called Oblivion 2 Backlash, and it's an adorably fun example of what you'd see in the early morning hours during the early days of the Sci-Fi channel.

    I Miss The Whimsical Apple

    I Miss The Whimsical Apple

    Today on the 5: Between terrible internally created ads and wonderful externally crafted creations, I've had a real desire to see the old Apple come back in some way. Remember when their products had color and took chances? They've got the hardware design pretty much locked in, so why not start letting loose in the design department?

    Windows Recall Is Fine

    Windows Recall Is Fine

    Today on the 5: Microsoft recently held a Surface and Windows event where they made a bunch of hardware and software accnoiuncments. One of the most highly discussed news items from that event is Recall, a sort of system wide overseer that constantly captures virtually everything you do on your computer. A lot of people are losing their minds over this feature, but as described I'm not sure I have much of an issue with it.

Conversations about life the universe and everything else.

Been listening for awhile and this show has become like comfort food. It’s almost like 3 podcasts in 1. There are the weekday quick 5 minute topics and the main show on Friday. Maybe once a month a special guest show sprinkled in. If you’d like to listen to two besties take deep dives into the most random stuff: comics, fiction, sci-fi, cyberpunk, horror, b-movies, technology, philosophy, video games, current topics, forgotten movies and more. You’ll come away each week with some sort of recommendations for entertainment.

A thinking man's podcast

Despite oblique reference to contemporary popular art and media, the Ozone Nightmare is, in essence, an exercise in reinterpretation and actualization of the cultural forms and cliches. A contemplative, didactic approach to intersectionality and the problem of placelessness in the post-post-modern world. Original? More often than not, if sounds uttered have any place to be called original. Timely? Most certainly not; if you are bothered by trend setting, remember that history has ended 20 years ago. In short - necessary listening for any true admirer of Korzybski.

A Podcast About Anything and Everything, Always!

This podcast is one of my absolute favorites and has been for almost a decade. Lando & Joe are two of the most down to earth nerds on this planet. They entertain and bewilder simply through their weekly discussion while offering interesting points of view on movies, television, gaming, and other topics from a deeply creative perspective.

There is something I find really interesting about this podcast. Unlike many others, this one feels so authentic. At its very core, it just consists of two friends talking once a week and a quick five minute episode every weekday. However, while it might seems simplistic, they delve into a variety of topics that range from philisophical to gaming. You never know what you're going to get each day in your podcast feed. Also, if you like Red Letter Media's serious discussion on movies and television, you will like this podcast as it is very similar.

On another note, Joe gave me some personal advice on comics to consider reading since I haven't ever gotten into them before. This was over 7 years ago and I still remember it as it meant a lot to me. It helped me get through some hard times and I don't think they know just how much I appreciated it.

Please give their podcast a try if you haven't before. You might get hooked like me.
