I’d love to know what you're thinking!In this episode, Tod Bolsinger and Markus Watson unpack a powerful quote from Steve Carter, "You only learn resilience through the fire and through the suffering."

From this, the conversation explores the concept of resilience and how leaders are formed in the crucible of change an...2024-04-0907 min

Now I've Heard EverythingJames WatsonIn 1953, an earnest and ambitious 25-year-old scientist nmaed James Watson made a groundbreaking discovery that helped revolutionize science, medicine, even the law.
Working alongside Francis Crick, Watson identified the double-helix structure of DNA.
That breakthrough earned Watson and Crick the Nobel Prize in medicine in 1962. Watson wrote a book explaining the double helix.
I met him in 2002, when he published another book, which he called "enes, Girls, and Gamow." That was a reference to George Gamow, a pioneering theoretical physicist who contributed to, and built on, Watson and crick's work.2021-04-1219 min
The University of Billy"Why are Republican Presidents So Bad for the Economy?"This is the exact title of a New York Times piece from yesterday. It is based on a study by 2 Princeton economics professors. It's based on 2 numbers - GDP and employment. Since FDR the economy grows more under democrat presidents and lest under republican. Bill Clinton was their main example. Due to deficit government spending he raised taxes which led to an economic boom while he was president. My business boomed while he was president, I assure you, it was not because of federal tax increases.

The Double Bill rotation comes around to Michael David Postle, and he smashes together two films of the space-opera variety: “Guardians of the Galaxy” (hurray!) and “Ice Pirates” (what?). Partially inspired by this HuffPo article, “Ice Pirates” and “Guardians of the Galaxy” are separated by 30 years, and oh what a change 30 years and giving two bits about your property brings.

Satoshi Kon has been a favorite of mine for years. I started watching him with “Perfect Blue” back when I was in college, and managed to see all of his films afterward: “Millennium Actress” and “Tokyo Godfathers”.
His most recent (and last) full-length feature film was “Paprika”. This film I wanted to revisit for awhile, and what better way to do that but through Double Bill? I thought about other films to pair it with, but ultimately settled on “Inception”, which I’ve since learned was influenced by “Paprika”. An unintentional bonus!

Brian also brings along a special guest, the actor, writer, and finely-dressed man Ben Tallen!

Double Bill returns, and with it comes 80s cheesy goodness in Mannequin (1987) and delightful dread in the form of the Doctor Who episode, “Blink.” Brian Watson-Jones chose these films with the “uncanny valley” effect in mind, but most of us thought his connecting theme involved “things that stopped moving when you look directly at them.”
