My buddies run The Loser Club Stephen King podcast for Bloody Disgusting. They've had Sai King on and have been going through the books in chronological order for like 4 or 5 years now. You guys seem to love King as much as I do so thought you'd enjoy it.

My dad has stage 4 cancer and is undergoing chemo, so he and my mom switched to a vegan diet and non-alcoholic diet. They stay with me when they go to their infusions because I live closer to the city where their appointment is. And I’ll make vegan meals and have N.A. beer in the house, and I’ve found that there are some N.A. beers that are pretty good now. Corona and Peroni are our favorites. I also tried Tom Holland’s new company “Bero” , which is far too expensive and you have to order it shipped to your house, but other than that it is good too.

Straw poll: which movie is the least qualifying ‘action’ movie on paper, that the boyz could still cover?
At the risk of being the cringey ‘which blah blah blah: I’ll go first’ guy, I nominate UNDER THE SKIN. Weird and arty af, a bummer, and zero action to speak of but I still think it would be a very fun ABZ conversation

You can live without a lot of your brain. This kid's baseball coach convinced his mom to take him to some doctors to figure out why he favored his left side so much. Turned out a stroke he had when he was a baby left him without a quarter of his brain, but he was pretty normal. https://source.washu.edu/2021/03/brain-rewires-itself-after-injury-on-the-edge-of-whats-compatible-with-life/

Eastern Promises was the next year and I think also a dub? Basically perfect

I enjoyed this movie, first watch. Especially since I've liked the South Park Episode "Cartmans Incredible Gift". It spoofs this movie and Silence of the Lambs. Cops think Cartman has a gift. They ask him what he sees and he says 'ice cream and oreos', so they arrest the ice cream shop owner.

I don't understand the protected by the government part, or the foreign car example as they are probably Chinese components assembled in the US. but yes, cheaper (in all ways) goods for the American consumer can be the result of outsourcing labor to where workers can be more easily exploited and ecosystems more readily destroyed. then sent here in elaborate and fragile shipping networks. you might save money but there is a heavy cost being paid. insatiable western consumption is the first problem in this ecocidal chain. imo.

It slipped by during the drinking conversation but Stanger's point about looking predatory if you don't drink is bang on. Half the sober guys I knew in university were fucking creeps, and the other half felt they had to be saints. When I cut back myself, I picked up some real weird vibes.

I say more NAFTA talk. I have been saying for a long time that was the breaking point. In the late 90s right up to 9/11 we had unions marching arm in arm with environmentalists at anti globalization protests. There were tens of thousands in the streets who saw the writing on the wall of where the globalized and internet centered world were heading. Clinton and the neo liberals lost the unions and handed the disenfranchised working class to the right. Then 9/11 and the flag on lapel, us against them narrative could be sculpted into a spear by extremists who made fascist ideology mainstream. anyway, fun movie.

On Gabrus mentioning King’s name being a selling point. I believe walking into a book, seeing a standee displaying his books, and the King name being spelled with the spooky looking ITC Benguiat font(Which was almost always bigger than the title) also helped in King’s notoriety. Especially during his 2nd wave in the 1990’s.
