THEM! | Episode 399

Jim dedicates this episode to the memory of his parents, Jim & Phyllis, who would have celebrated their 70th Wedding anniversary the day after this publishes. One of the most-loved “Big Bug” films of the 50’s is discussed here with 1954’s “THEM!,” starring James Whitmore, James Arness, Joan Weldon, Edmund Gwynn, Sandy Descher, Fess Parker, Onslow Stevens, Sean McClory, Leonard Nimoy, Dub Taylor, and Olin Howland. Directed by Gordon Douglas, this film set the tone for radiation-themed, big-big films to come. Join us or a very special episode of MONSTER ATTACK!, The Podcast Dedicated To Old Monster Movies.

Headcanon that Jason Grace takes his Roman history obsession to the next level, to the point where he has totally read illegal/restricted books in camp Jupiter before. Yk how there are restricted libraries? Camp Jupiter totally has tons of those only elite members can access. Jason totally exploits his position just for more history info.

Yk how annabeth said in Mark of Athena, that Jason looks like he knows way TOO much but simply doesn't tell anyone? Well he does. he has dark af secrets and tea, he'd literally be looking for an opportunity to spill all of it 👀 he has certainly read very um. Questionable things.

(another hc that annabeth is literally the only one he spills these stuff to bc she is legit the only one who gets the art of history, also, she totally bribed him for information, we know that canonically they both DID have nerdy discussions w e/o. Annabeth said in moa that Jason had described the exteriors of new Rome in perfect detail to her and how Reyna was supposed to look like, in the lost hero, those two spent hours researching about the Roman/Greek forms of gods by interrogating clovis + Piper noted how well they both debated about the Athena parthenos without any blame or hostility, just perfectly fitting their collective pieces of research information together. Ugh this friendship was such a wasted potential. It's literally no wonder that annabeth cried till she was sick for Jason's death. They weren't close friends or anything, but they intellectually respected eachother in a very healthy way, it was refreshing to read about tbh.

Jason and annabeth are the OG nerd friends fr.

The Evolution of Fandom Feat. Geek with Chris - Modular Components Episode One Hundred & Seven

The crew are joined by Geek with Chris to discuss his perspective on the evolution of fandom as a long time figure head in multiple circles with insider knowledge.

[toplesstopics]

So longtime friend of the Topless Topics community mrich (as we all know him by) and I have been tossing around a #podcast idea for a while (I know, I know…this one will be good though, I promise ;p) and I could use y'alls help in solidifying the concept before we jump in to making it.

Basically, the thought is to provide two different but respectful opinions on a variety of subjects--I'm a cis white woman "coastal elite" from California, he's a cis black man from the South, and we're both #progressive #leftists and huge nerds (especially #gaming !) We're also both #normalizeNudity (and of course #freeTheNipple / #topless #equality ) supporters, raised #nudist / #naturist though I reject the specific label these days (I got a whole video about it at toplesstopics.org/nomorenudism if you're curious), and #sexPositive - I'm #bisexual and #polyamorous , he's straight and monogamous, but totally cool with other models, as long as it's all #consensual . We also (so many commonalities!) are both quite #artistic - he's mainly into #portrait #photography while I'm into #illustration both #digitalIllustration and #traditionalIllustration .

While we're still figuring out the structure of the podcast, the idea is to have a few somewhat disparate sections to it - gaming/ #comics / #cosplay /etc, then brief reaction to current #politics / #news (like #feminism , #LGBTQ , #racialJustice , anti- #capitalism , and so much more), and (hopefully) an interview with someone interesting ( #sexWorker , #activist , #artist , etc…whoever we can find that seems like they'd be a good fit for the pod! Then finally, maybe an "ask us anything" advice/reaction section to round out the episode.

I'm thinking we aim for <= 2 hours, one episode per month, but if we really get into it, maybe an episode every other week. I'm still gonna have to edit it and I have a lot else on my plate so I don't want to overextend myself too much. If we happen to stumble into wild success maybe I could hire someone else to do that part in the future, then we could record more often :p

On some subjects, of course I will defer to his expanded first-hand experience, like #racialInequality . And on other subjects, it'll be mostly my turn to step onto the soapbox, namely about what it's like to be a woman in this #misogynist #sexist world. We've chatted for many hours over the years and always gotten along swimmingly, so I don't anticipate undue friction in the longterm (a benefit of having so many like-minded opinions already). But I still think we have enough difference in life experiences to provide an interesting perspective on a variety of topics.

What do you think? Does any of that seem interesting to you? What kinds of things / people to interview would you like to see on a podcast created by a pair of different similar leftist nerds? Would you listen to such a podcast? Please, lay your feedback on me! All replies welcome, as long as you're not being a total jerk ❤️

The Falcon & The Winter Soldier Episode Recaps

Episode 1: New World Order

Hosted by Rebecca Vashon with Guest Robert Young

This is a Black History Month Throwback Saturday podcast recommendation.

It’s nice to hear discussions of this from Black people in the fandom because…Reasons. (IYKYK.)

Back in March 2021, every Friday a new episode of The Falcon and The Winter Soldier (#TFATWS) dropped into Disney+, and the recaps/reactions followed.

My favorite Recaps were done by The Spectrum Lounge, hosted by Rebecca Theodore-Vachon (co-author of The Marvel Cinematic Universe: An Official Timeline) with Guest Robert Young who is a lifelong comic book geek and an Army veteran.

These episodes were entertaining, informative and fun! Everything you want from a podcast.

Also, one of the podcasts was a Special Episode where Rebecca Vachon talked with Adepero Oduye!

This link is to the Spotify home of the podcast. It’s also available on Apple Podcast. And probably wherever you catch podcasts.

I swear ASMR Roleplay will be the death of me. I stayed up for 3 1/2 hours waiting for and watching the YuuriVoice interview with UTC Audios.

I have school, and I went to sleep at 0245 just to watch it.

I always love to see my art in other people’s home 🥰

This one I got this picture from @cyber-witch85​, my dear friend! I’m so happy that you decided to buy them and shared this image with me 🥰 You have a wonderful Star Wars corner here!

Did you know that she has a podcast? It just started, right now only a test/pilot episode about it, but I think it will be great, so you consider to listen and follow it 🥰

My dear friend's account for their podcast, Wonderful World of Darklords, is locked out of Tumblr for mysterious reasons (read: Tumblr bot failure). And on the day of their monthly episode drop too, so I am posting for them. My friends take inspiration from Disney films (well, normally...in April they do non-Disney) and convert them into Ravenloft Domains of Dread. I write a small portion of the show as "Yensid" (aka Azalin using a false name) , the warlock D's patron who writes up the reports on each of these Domains. Anyway, here is their pitch. Give it a listen if you're interested: Welcome to Wonderful World of Darklords! In the spirit of April Fool's Day, we're once again taking a break from Disney movies for this month's episode (yes, we know Disney distributed the Ghiblis for a while, but we operate under strict Calvinball rules in which Home Alone can be a regular episode but Princess Mononoke can't). There's so much nightmare fuel in Princess Mononoke that it's almost redundant to turn it into a horror setting, but turning it into a Ravenloft domain is another matter entirely. Topics discussed include:

How to give Irontown and the forest an unforgivable, irredeemable darklord when one of the movie's main themes is that no one is unforgivable or irredeemable (except Jigo, who we're going to discuss a lot);

A Disney movie that we will never, ever make an episode about, but that actually has quite a bit of thematic overlap with Princess Mononoke, so you can just pretend this is that episode if you want;

Multiple AU possibilities for the darklord, ranging from "fairly obvious" to "high-concept fever dream;"

The canon darklord who can fill the same role as Lord Asano but with more personality;

and more!

The real-life inspiration for the forest was Shiratani Unsuikyo on Yakushima Island. Swoon over some photos that look like they should have Okkoto in them here: https://www.gettyimages.com/photos/shiratani-unsuikyo
