Episode 118 - Prophet of the Metaverse Philip K Dick, Part 2

Our favorite Dickheads are back for a follow-up to their popular first episode where they dove into the life and career of Philip K Dick (Bladerunner, Minority Report, Total Recall), and broke down three distinct parts of his career, as well as his influences and legacy.

If you're a fan of scifi, you're not going to want to miss this deep dive into the writer who thought we were living in a simulation back in 1977. Here to guide us will be Anthony Trevino, David Agranoff and Langhorne J Tweed.

Episode 81 - Matrix Resurrections Review

Today is the grand finale of Matrix Month as we review the newest film, Matrix Resurrections. To find out if his reality is a physical or mental construct, Mr. Anderson, aka Neo, will have to choose to follow the white rabbit once more. If he's learned anything, it's that choice, while an illusion, is still the only way out of -- or into -- the Matrix. Neo already knows what he has to do, but what he doesn't yet know is that the Matrix is more dangerous than ever before.

Episode 80 - Matrix Revolutions

Alright, so maybe Matrix Revolutions wasn't as revolutionary as the original, but it does give us some much-needed answers, and completes the trilogy. For those reasons, we're excited to take a look back at it.

The third installment finds Neo trapped in a limbo world and the majority of the planet's population remain in a state of suspended virtual reality. The few humans who are cognizant of the grim realities of the world must hold off their mechanical enemies long enough for Neo to escape and save the day.

Check it!

Episode 79 - The Matrix Reloaded Review

Some say that the second installment in the trilogy didn't live up to the first. Then again, some say that it deepened the world and mythology and is better than the original.

Whatever the case, we're going to break it down.

In Matrix Reloaded, Neo meets a program called the Architect, the creator of the Matrix, who explains that Neo must make a choice to either reboot the Matrix and pick survivors to repopulate the Zion, or refuse, causing the Matrix to crash and killing everyone connected to it.

Let's get all philosophical and shit way down the rabbit hole.

Episode 78 - Matrix Storyboard Artist Steve Skroce

With Matrix 4 just around the corner, we’re taking a whole month to look back at the OG trilogy, and what better way to start than to talk to the first person ever hired to work on the original Matrix, comic book artist Steve Skroce. After doing hundreds of storyboards for the original, Steve became a longtime collaborator of the Wachowski’s and worked on all four Matrix films— yes, including the latest.

From being there when the pitch for the original movie got rejected by the studios, to watching it become one of the most influential films of the last few decades, Steve has a unique perspective on the series. We hope you enjoy this conversation as much as we did. Joining us was Co-Founder of Inscape Studios, Matt Sinclair.

If you’ve been red pilled or not, you gotta check this one out!
