Episode notes

Some people say that there are lots of hidden meanings in it or meanings which are not that obvious. Kubrick has intentionally put little symbolic things in, which mean that the film is actually about something much larger or something else. And also, of course, it's just remarkably creepy with the two twins. The story doesn't really make any sense at all. It's a bit complicated story.

[Part 2 of 2] Since recording part 1 of this conversation, Antony caught COVID-19 and lost a bit of weight, but he managed to talk for about 100 minutes here about more topics he has previously covered in episodes of his podcast "Life & Life Only". Here we discuss diverse things including the extraordinary feats of endurance by David Blaine🕴🏻, food and dieting 🍔, Stanley Kubrik's film "The Shining" 🪓, the term "conspiracy theory" 🤫, the ways that comedy shows can reveal the truth 🎭, and the complex art of happiness 🙂.
