    Why Some Stories Age Well & Others Don’t - Mark Rosendorf

    Award-winning YA author Mark Rosendorf joined us to discuss thoughtful worldbuilding, magic systems, and how to do time travel the right way. We also discuss his rules for keeping your stories timeless, and how to ensure that audiences 10, 20, and 50 years from now will still find your work relevant. Mark's award-winning series, The Witches of Vegas, has a new installment coming out January 4th 2023, Witch Way To Vegas, and is available for pre-order today.

    “Taxi Driver” (Film) - Unreliable Anti-Heroes

    It shouldn't be a surprise that man who asks "You talkin' to me?" to his mirror might be an unreliable narrator. How do you turn a character as strange and unlikeable as Travis Bickle into a narrator worth rooting for? When does showing harmful viewpoints turn into glorifying them? Join us this week as we dive into the complex character piece that is Taxi Driver.

    “Severance” (TV) - Work-Life Imbalance

    Apple +'s most talked about show, "Severance", is a creepy and thoughtful look into our relationship with work, corporate loyalty, and worker's rights. Executive Producer Ben Stiller has created a story that is both highly accessible to wide audiences, yet is artfully crafted with deep themes. We all gave this show a high 9 out of 10, so why did we love this show so much? On this week's episode, we dive into the technical elements of what makes this story click.

    "The Departed" (Film) - A Masterclass in Tension

    Martin Scorsese's 2006 Oscar juggernaut "The Departed" has everything you'd want in a crime thriller: An outstanding cast, a phenominal script, and a story that will keep you on the edge of your seat. So how did the Mob thriller manage to keep us guessing until the final minutes? We discuss that and more on this week's episode.

    The Vault Presents: “Nightcrawler” - Antisocial Butterfly

    The Novel D team is out this week, and as much as it pains us, we've had to unearth one of our older episodes to serve as this week's conversation. After a unanimous vote, we decided to bring you our discussion on Nightcrawler - one of the best and most disturbing character-driven stories of the 21st century. Nightcrawler was nominated for the 2014 Oscar for best original screenplay, yet is still one of the most overlooked and underdiscussed movies of the 2010’s. We discuss how its dynamic main character explores the winners and losers of capitalism. We also revisit one of the most riveting music documentaries of recent memory, Woodstock ‘99.

    “Akira” (Anime/Film) - Blast from the Future

    The 1988 Film "Akira" was groundbreaking in many ways, from its storytelling to its animation, and even, what it said about Japanese society in such a transitional time. In this week's episode, we discuss why makes Akira one of the most influential stories of all time, and how it still remains a standard bearer for modern Anime.

    “LotR: The Rings of Power” - Early Reaction/Analysis

    Amazon Prime's Billion-dollar attempt to battle Game of Thrones launched this week, when the first two episodes of the Lord of the Rings prequel, The Rings of Power, dropped. Was the anticipation worth the wait? Were the early reports of messy & pandering writing accurate? What does the future of this massive Tolkien undertaking look like? We discuss all this and more.

  8. “The Sun Also Rises” (Novel) - Hemingway’s First (and Best?)

    29/08/2022

    “The Sun Also Rises” (Novel) - Hemingway’s First (and Best?)

    Ernest Hemingway's 1926 classic "The Sun Also Rises" has remained at the forefront of classic literature for its sparse, tight prose and its glimpse into the life of the Lost Generation. In this week's epsiode, we discuss the Lost Generation, life after World War !, and how these events shaped Hemmingway into the writer he would become. We also discuss why this bull fighting classic is still influencing writers and writing styles, even to this day.
