On the podcast this time, Steven and Sean are sick with dread over who could be listening in on our private conversations. We watched the 1974 film from Francis Ford Coppola, The Conversation.
It’s all fun and games until murder enters the picture. Maybe you’re going about your life, listening in on the confessions of normal people out on a stroll, hunched over in a nondescript white van parked on a nearby curb.
Someone whispers a terrifying fear that grips them, prevents them from living a happy life. They’re worried that their life may be in danger. Can they run? Should they fight back?
Either way, something terrible is going to happen soon and you’re the only person who knows about it. Maybe you’re the only person in the world who can stop it. This is way above your pay grade.
Paranoia grips you, freezes your blood, ruins your quaint life. A question keeps playing through your thoughts, over and over: is someone watching the watchman?
