What I'm Up To

Feyd loves her taco truck.

The world around us seems to be coming apart at the seams, and in the fallout from it all, we find that it is time to release another episode of 20 Minutes Into The Future, the show where my friend Heather and I review episodes of Max Headroom. Heather has never seen any of this, and is looking at these shows filtered through a modern lens. Austin loved this show as a kid, and re-watches them fairly often, this time with Heather. Together, we deconstruct this program that we are both fond of, and leave no stone unturned as we discover that 20 Minutes Into The Future looks a lot like… 2021. Over 90 minutes, you get to enjoy a podcast that’s about how the past thought the future would look… and how uncanny it is when both line up like they do.

I casually heard a friend mention "shoebox" tape recorders today, and I drew a blank. I've never heard that phrase before.

Trying to stay upbeat.

Here’s another reminder that we are having a Zoom Watch Party, where we watch Max Headroom and hang out. For us on the West Coast, it’s “Early” entertainment for a Friday Night. This is, of course, in anticipation of the new episode that’s dropping on Sunday. If you want to watch the show with us first before we talk about it, this has proven in the past to be a lot of fun.

“A taco truck on every corner.”

We’re having another ZOOM Party! Join us as we watch an episode of Max Headroom, and hang out in the network node where the lines between entertainment, war journalism, terrorism and performance all intersect at the point where an up-and-coming reporter is injured in the field, and in response we get… and Airwolf episode? All this, and more, this Friday! Join us.

Corvallis friends: I’m sitting in a grassy, shaded spot outside the Vet Teaching Hospital, waiting for a friend. I might be here as long as an hour, reading and enjoying the weather. Maybe you are near, and can say hello?

Fingers crossed.
