Children of Men with Bring Out Your Dead podcast

Children of Men has become more relevant and prescient with every year since it came out in 2006. When we recorded this on October 19, 2023, it was stunning how you could see comparisons of the immigration facilities to Gaza. This movie is a glimmer of hope...perhaps the hope that all those who are opressed need to one day be free.

The 5th Element with some meat popsicles

The 1990's were wild. Boy bands, the Spice Girls and Bruce Willias movies that are begging for a bunch of millenials to discuss. I'm joined by Serra Despair and Costume Whimsy (check out our episode on Demolition Man) to dig through this treasure trove of 90's nostalgia.// Left of the Projector Links: // ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Patreon⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ // ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Podcast Stream Links ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ // ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Merch Store⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ // ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠YouTube Channel⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ // ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Instagram⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ // ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠TikTok ⁠ --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/leftoftheprojector/support

BONUS: The Grapes of Wrath with The Intervention

Bonus crossover content!! I joined The Intervention to discuss a couple of pieces of culture from the New Deal Era.  We start by taking a look at the fascistic Gabriel Over the White House, brought to you by arch-reactionary and media oligarch, William Randolph Hearst.  We then move to the meat of the discussion on a decidedly better piece of culture, The Grapes of Wrath, in its various media manifestations.
