Just saw this movie. It's pretty incredible. I wouldn't really call it good, but it's gorgeous and bizarre. It's an experience worth having. I'd say this review gets it about right.

I like both quite a bit, but one of the most memorable Hodgman moments for me came from Resident Expert. It was the explanation of why economics is referred to as "the dismal science". He explained that it was named after Sir Eustice Dismal, an 18th century economist who proposed making smoke stacks out of children.…

Well, the thing that makes Marc Maron such a good interviewer is that he somehow manages to draw out really intensely personal moments from his interviews. Just listen to his interview with Todd Hanson for a prime example. However, this requires a longer format. I think Maron is fine right where he is. Great podcast,…

I love Louie CK but I may have to agree with the shrieking masses. He isn't a great actor. He can play any insanely neurotic variation of himself, but beyond that, he doesn't seem great. I mean, if the parts are written specifically for him, then he may do alright. Otherwise, I'm not so sure.

I think this is probably their most concise album. They cut down on the lengthy intros and noisey outros. They don't beat around the bush much. They jump straight into each song.

It was the summer before I went to college and we had just switched cable services. I think we had showtime at a discounted rate or something.
