The Matrix Reloaded (2003)

There are episodes and then there are EPISODES. Joining us to break down the incredible behind the scenes details of 8,000 years of the making of the Bible, PhD in theology & religion, and holy warrior fighting back the forces of intolerance across the internet every day, Dan McClellan. And we needed Dan to tackle Darren Aranofsky and Russell Crowe’s weird (REALLY weird!) fantasy, sci-fi(?), post apocalyptic(?) biblical movie, Noah. So much fun to have an unparalleled expert - and truly great guy - share his knowledge with us!

“We go into the Art Institute [of Chicago] and every room there, there are paintings that look completely and utterly different from the other rooms. But in cinema, everything looks the same. And it's a really aggressive straight-jacket, aesthetically. We started talking about cubism, for instance, and we started talking about could you make a cubist film? And we realized that if you try to make a cubist film for adults, you will end up like Picasso, running from the angry mob when he first showed Guernica. They wanted to kill him. Literally. It's because adults... they reject change, and an aesthetic change is too aggressive a death for them. Every generation experiences aesthetic death, and when you really assault an aesthetic, people freak out. But we said that kids are okay with aesthetic change.” - Lana Wachowski on making Speed Racer. We get into it with the co-host of The Austin Danger Podcast, Kev, and Escape Hatch film correspondent Ctcher.

This episode is really special. As our real world faces conflict with Russia and in the Middle East between Israel and Iran, we were incredibly lucky to welcome back former Deputy National Security Advisor and co-host of Pod Save the World, Ben Rhodes. We go deep into these threats, and then we find solace in fiction as we cover Alec Baldwin and Sean Connery as adversaries trying to find common ground, in The Hunt for Red October.
