New Subgoal Hype! Choo Choo! If you want to see Swade's tummy get slapped, get us to 50 ratings on wherever you listen to this podcast. (00:03:13) Then, a very scientific debate! Swade and Walter argue over what the best silverware one should use for salad, ice cream, steak, popcorn and eggs. Let us know who you think won the debate! (00:20:12) Swade discusses Prachya Pinkaew's "Chocolate", an ass-kicking film about martial arts from Thailand. "Chocolate"'s main character is autistic and Swade talks about where he thinks representation is done right and where it is done wrong (00:45:00) Walter shares Chantal Akerman's "News From Home" and how the film reminds him how it is to move to a new city while having home act as part of a background identity despite all the fun city life. Walter also talks about this inability to access his feelings for his family.
