ONE BATTLE AFTER ANOTHER

The guys discuss the film adaptation, ONE BATTLE AFTER ANOTHER, based on the 1990 novel, VINELAND, by Thomas Pynchon.
… 

Vineland is set in 1984, the year of Ronald Reagan’s reelection, but primarily told in flashback. The story follows several characters who provide remembrances of their revolutionary life in the late 60s during a time of “fascistic Nixonian repression” and how that had evolved to the 80s and the war on drugs. The main through-line, however, concerns four primary players: three revolutionaries–Zoyd Wheeler, Frenesi Gates, her daughter Prairie, and the federal agent Brock Vond, and the book’s main narrative concerns Zoyd, Prairie and Brock’s attempts to find Frenesi, who is in witness protection. Themes of American rot, the corruptive power of television and the goodness of weed feature prominently. 
… 

The film adaptation was written and directed by Paul Thomas Anderson, starring Leonardo DiCaprio, Texans Taylor, Sean Penn, Chase Inifiniti, Benicia del Toro and Regina Hall.
… 

Topics of discussion include the reimagining of Thomas Pynchon’s novel, the postmodernist literary movement, the challenging aspects of reading Thomas Pynchon, the film’s Academy Awards chances come Oscar season, and whether or not Erik is a member of The Christmas Adventurer’s Club.

Hosted by the mysteriously charming Nick Flanagan, NFW is a peek into the  the diverse community of people Nick orbits. It's also about his experiences singing in bands, doing comedy and living life while dealing with mental health, depression and ADHD after a draining stints as a touring performer and(harshest of all) a brief denizen of Los Angeles.  Nick has met all kinds of people and seen things that cannot be unseen - mostly on Youtube. Bad news: he wants to tell you about them.  Conversational solo episodes and interviews with social workers, subcultural experts, musicians and comedians means NFW covers a range of topics with charm, aplomb and a hint of desperation.
