À propos de cet audio

An author and a chessmaster walk into a movie theater... Author Zachary Steele and the chessmaster of "mystery" (ahem), Germ, delve into their favorite new and old movies, generally acting in a way that might make you question the "intelligence" on display. From film facts, to background stories, to winding paths full of philosophy and humor, the act of just watching a movie in silence and going home is not something these two friends are familiar with. Gear up for discussions on thier favorite films, behind the scenes information and stories from the sets, the music that accompanies it, and ramble about into history (film and real), philosophy, and why Germ thinks Snickers is quite possibly nature's most perfect food.Copyright 2025 Zachary Steele Art

  • Groundhog Day and its relation to Simulation Theory, the stages of grief, and the importance of choice
    Jan 28 2025

    With Groundhog Day just a few days away, it's time to get your booties on, get out in the cold, and relive Groundhog Day over and over and over and over. Zach and Germ discuss the classic Bill Murray comedy and how it connects to various philosophies and spiritual thought. In addition, math is involved (apologies), as the duo discuss just how many Groundhog Days it's belived Phil Connors experienced before finally moving on to February 3rd. Zach also drops some writing-related lessons taken from the film.

    Groundhog Day, at its core, is a movie about life and the importance of the choices we make. It's also very funny. Which always helps.

  • The Mummy and an Ode to Brendan Fraser
    Jan 21 2025

    It's time to party--again--like it's 1999, with a look back at The Mummy and the franchise it spawned. While spending some time on the movie itself, the coversation turns to a love fest for Brendan Fraser and his underrated list of films, his range in Bedazzled, and his powerful performance in The Whale, which deservedly earned him an Oscar in 2023.

    Also, Zach rails on Tom Cruise, leading to a debate on the merits of the Mission Impossible and Fast and the Furious films.

  • The Fifth Element, A Chris Tucker masterpiece
    Jan 14 2025

    Zach and Germ head back to 1997 to discuss the sci-fi cult classic, The Fifth Element. Chris Tucker's performace as Ruby Rhod steals a good portion of the opening, but the duo work through the amazing cast, disagree on the idea of a remake (and the remake of Aladdin), and reference another dozen or so movies (and a moon landing) along the way.

    The Fifth Element was a fantastic film. This episode is up for debate.
