In which our heroes talk s*** about social media.

Repost from 2023

We've changed the format of the podcast since we first dabbled with it in 2023 but i feel like the conversations we had then are still very much in keeping with the general feel of the show and in particular this episode we recorded in March 2023 about the Netflix documentary "The Social Dilemma"...time may have moved on but the presence of social media and it's impacts continue

I (Rob Jones) sat down with Jamie Onolfo to watch the 2020 Netflix documentary "The Social Dilemma".

Rather than a scene for scene review of the documentary, this is a more of a conversation informed by the topics raised in the film.

We get into our history with various social media platforms and how our relationship with social media has changed over time and then some of the issues raised in the documentary - Addiction, Surveillance Capitalism, radicalisation, trolling and the impacts of social media on traditional media.

Finally we discuss what we think the future hold for a society so influenced by these platforms and also for the platforms themselves as the first waves of users grow older and the next generations come through.

In which our heroes talk s*** about the 2023 Netflix documentary "Sly"

In our first episode looking at Sylvester Stallone we focus on the documentary film Sly, produced by and released on Netflix in 2023 which catches up with our hero as he's moving house from LA back to his home town of New York and he's reflecting on his career and the body of work he's created over 50+ years on the silver screen. We'll look at his childhood and relationship with his father, his most iconic roles and his subsequent career which defines genres, creates the ultimate underdog and an almost 50 year franchise.

This is episode 1 of a 4 part miniseries in which we'll take a deeper dive into the Rocky-verse, look at the impact of Rambo on 80s Action Movies and look into what happens to a career when the star begins to fade.
