WARNING: so I (Jared) am a huge fan of J.G. Ballard, and wanted to go hog wild this week on his underrated classic, “Concrete Island”. Due to some heavy editorializing, moreover, we’ve found ourselves amidst the worst episode so far. Arguably worse than our second episode- you’ll see why:
-David Bruckner’s ‘The Ritual’ a Netflix Original
-Dream Book Adaptation
-Our Hosts Stumble Through Everything They Do
-‘Concrete Island’, Technology, and Social Strata
AND MORE.
