@kathrynyu Awesome!!! Can’t wait to discuss!

This week on the pod: a double dose of HORROR as we tap into the Overlook Film Fest’s immersive slate with @bcbishop and the Universal Halloween Horror Nights anchored expansion of Area15 with CEO Winston Fisher.

@noproscenium HORROR… and a plea for a new Andor podcast that was sadly ignored.

Had a blast talking to @noahjnelson about the #immersive shows coming to the #OverlookFilmFestival this year! We’ve got some surprises in store…

Just stunned by tonight’s episode of #LastOfUs. Such a beautiful story, such intimacy and happiness, but my heart just aches.

Reslly just surprised by how quickly I am falling in love with this show.

@kathrynyu oh, I didn’t! Thank you for the rec. just grabbed a ticket for One Bad Day. 🙂

@kathrynyu That one resonated the least for me as well (both times). Really love Claws. The characters in Lucky Ones (and Collect Call) infuriated me! But in the good way.

Don’t know how many #immersiveexperience friends are on Mastodon yet, but highly recommend Candle House Collective’s “Collect Call”.

CHC shows have this habit of pushing my buttons and eliciting STRONG emotional reactions, and, um… Collect Call was definitely not an exception.

Whoa, cannot wait to see BEAU IS AFRAID! Ari Aster’s ambition is growing at super-duper-exponential-light-speed with every movie he makes.

This trailer is giving me some real Magnolia vibes. If Magnolia was a nightmare.

I love closing out the year with this. 😊

On December 31, 1995, exactly 27 years ago today, legendary cartoonist Bill Watterson published his final 'Calvin and Hobbes' comic strip.

How beautiful and appropriate it was, and a timeless reminder of what we have before us in 2023. ❤️

Happy New Year, ya'll!

@chuckwendig it’s in alpha still, but if you’re on iOS I’m really digging @ivory thus far.

Happy holidays! I wrote for Nieman Lab about the ethical issues journalists will have to consider as AI tools enter the newsroom: https://www.niemanlab.org/2022/12/ai-enters-the-newsroom/

@seanhollister Aw man. Brutal. Hope the password-change-a-palooza goes quickly.

@seanhollister What are you changing to? (I’ve been a 1Password user forever, but opposed to changing either.)

Masto definitely has aways to go but I’m genuinely shocked at how quickly it’s become my morning go-to.

@ivory and the other new apps in development are definitely a big part of that. Kudos to everyone making this place informative, interesting, and fun!

@connor Yep. Announced a couple weeks ago.

HBO Discovery is going to resurface it (and some other recently cancelled shows) on a free ad-supported service.

Grab yer physical media while you can.

Welp, it looks like HBO Max has finally pulled Westworld.

Though to be fair, they totally have me pegged with the Time Bandits rec.

@seanhollister I trust your judgement, good sir.

@noahjnelson @kathrynyu Can vouch for the above. The slots went live at 6 local but the post about them didn’t show up for me until around 10 minutes later.
