The Dungeon87. Marathon Man & Safe & Way Back HomeWelp, this week we watched Marathon Man (John Schlesinger, 1976), Safe (Todd Haynes, 1995), and Way Back Home (William A. Seiter, 1931). The latter is, quite literally, about a character named Seth Parker, if you can believe it. Then we went briefly off the menu to talk about Marcel the Shell and bumping into old students at the movies. Apologies for the fact that Seth Landman's audio sounds like dawg shit.

Historically Speaking PodcastThe New Deal - America's Original Bailout PlanIn 1932, a newly minted phrase was on the lips of most Americans… “The New Deal.” It was first uttered by Franklin D. Roosevelt to an audience in Chicago during his acceptance speech for the Democratic nomination for President. It would soon become an American phenomenon and the largest governmental spending plan to date. Its intention – to put Americans back to work and revive the economy following a depression unleashed by the stock market crash of 1929. It was hailed as a huge success and won FDR the Presidency in 1932, 1936, 1940 and 1944. But, was it really as successful as everyone lauded it to be? D...

Was this episode merely a Cold War incident or was there more to it than fears of communist insurrection? Was this a spontaneous revolt by frustrated Guatemalans, in which the US simply supported the will of free peoples, or was there a more sinister plot unfolding?

Lagrange PointEpisode 347 - Capturing carbon with better farms and forestsCapturing carbon is important for helping offset CO2 emissions and tackling climate changes. Farming has an important role to play in improving CO2 sequestration with the use of cover crops and compost. Forests are important carbon sinks too, but they are at risk releasing a lot of the trapped carbon if care is not taken to stop invasive species. Plus fertilisers have helped feed the planet but can leech out nitrogen into the environment, so how do we better manage and improve the nitrogen cycle.

He completed the work started by Frank Schlesinger in 1924 (who had made a huge step forward in the field thanks to progresses in the use of photographic plates) and continued by Louise Freeland Jenkins in 1952. It is the largest catalogue of stellar parallaxes compiled with ground-based telescopes, listing positions and parallaxes for over 8000 stars, with a precision of about 0.01 arcseconds.

The Next Reel Film PodcastThe Day of the Locust • The Next ReelThere have been a good number of films made about the film industry, but few have taken such a dark and surreal look at the Hollywood machine as John Schlesinger's 1975 "The Day of the Locust" did. While it's based on the Nathanael West book from 1939 and takes place at that time, it feels like a modern — or possibly even timeless — story of the business and the fringe-dwellers who want to be a part of its magic.
