Gatsby

We should make an official dead pool for how long Bret will last through a show. Also, great podcast as usual.

Trey Wilson

Wait...if The Wire isn’t the best television show ever created, then what is??

As a Gen X, I really loved "Halt and Catch Fire", following 6 characters during the computer revolution of the 80s and early 90s, chasing their dreams of making a difference, all with different motivations. Each season kept getting better and better - the 4th and last season left a big mark on me (man, that final episode...).

One of my favourites so far! I read The Mars Room in prep for this and loved it.

There was a real overlap between this episode and some of the stuff I've been interested in lately. I just watched "Klute" a couple weeks ago, I found the DVD at a record store when I was in Denver. I hadn't watched the film in almost 20 years and couldn't agree more on how well it holds up. The opening credits sequence is particularly great. I had mentioned Pakula and The Conversation in a blog post reviewing "Searching" ...have you watched? Wonder what your thoughts are on it. Secondly, when Rachel brought up Jaron Lanier I nearly fell out of my chair, I've been obsessed with this guy lately, he is fascinating (would make a good guest for your podcast). Lastly, what DID you think of those Emmys Awards on Monday night. That opening monologue was cringe inducing. My friends and I always fill out a Vanity Fair ballot for fun during these viewings and I haven't watched the majority of these shows..

Loved this episode. Great interview.
