#33 Robert Takes On The Cigarette Butt Baron
Manage episode 374585945 series 3439482
Chatting about Christopher Nolan, the genius behind the films like 'Following', 'Insomnia', and 'Memento', diving into the depth and layers of his narratives. It's not just about the films, we also explore how his creations stand apart from modern cinematic norms.
Shifting gears from Nolan's cinematic world, we delve into the changing landscape of Hollywood. (Carlos wonders what the hell its all about) Ever thought about how streaming services have disrupted traditional compensation models for writers? Or, how the quest for storytelling sometimes ends up in unsatisfying endings? We draw parallels between modern comedic TV shows and the timeless 'I Love Lucy'. Also, come laugh with us as we discuss the unique style of standup comedy and the comedic genius of Nate Bargatze.
Finally, Robert tells us about his family trip along the East Coast. (FAIR WARNING: he's got choice words for Asheville). From exploring the beauty of Asheville, North Carolina, to the culinary delights of Charleston, South Carolina, we share our experiences and reflections. We also tackle some serious issues, addressing addiction and the responsibility that comes with dealing with substance abuse.
