This week we are discussing Coralie Fargeat's 2024 film The Substance, a movie that imagines what it might be like if you could recapture your youth. We get into the implications of the film for our culture, particularly as it relates to aging and finding meaning in an increasingly youth-centric, substance-less world. Making references to Oscar Wilde and Mary Shelley, we also take a look at some of the spiritual antecedents to this brilliant (if horrifying) concept-driven picture.
We open up with a somewhat extended conversation about the second inauguration of Donald J. Trump as president. How have our predictions been panning out so far? Is the new tech oligarchy really as bad as we feared? To find out...you must listen.
This episode contains spoilers for The Substance.
