Glad you're safe! There are so many sad stories (including David Lynch dying during evacuation, that really hit me hard).
We need like 3 hour pods tbh, yall are just too good.
7:30 Baxter cameo
Yoooo
When tornadoes rolled through my town a few years back, the roof got sucked up off of a friend's house. Her bedroom was then pictured in the Wall Street Journal.
I told her "I bet you never thought your bedroom would be shown in the Wall Street Journal" :)
It’s like I’m right there with you.
You are always with us!!!
@@mamiyamigos😭😭😭
Best wishes for 2025! Skoal!
Glad you guys came out of the fires unscathed and glad to see another ep!
Keep ‘em coming. Really appreciate you guys doing this during this time.
Glad to see you guys are safe. More eps would rock!
Glad you guys and your families are safe and well. All the best from across the pond 🙌
Much love bros! We are so glad you and family are safe!
Growing up in regional Australia you get a true appreciation of bushfires and they are beyond scary. Its something that you dont completely understand until you experience. All the best to all the LA families.
The scale of this fire is insane, glad you guys are alright!
i get that same urge in tragic disasters, the photojournalistic drive the need to capture moments that evoke strong emotions
Glad you both are okay. Fun podcast. Here too an amazing 2025! 🎉🎉
Love you guys
7:29 baxter sighting
I didn't know about the Coconut water, seems it will help with my cramping. Interesting camera stuff too. Best wishes to all the CA residents affected by the fire.
Shallow Grave is a classic. One of those movies, when the credits roll, you think: damn, that was really entertaining. But because nobody else saw it or talks about it, you forget the title.
Glad y'all are safe, on the topic of not belonging somewhere, y'all both live in the LA area, you belong there, if you want to document it from your perspective it would be no different than the work of those that documented regime uprisings etc. I cant think of the photographers names but they are part of magnum or something. But this is something that affected you and those you know. You don't need to be a news channel or "someone" to do that.
This was my thought too. Like what *level* of affected by the fires would you have to be for it to be considered correct for you to document the fires? Is just you being from LA enough? You being displaced by the fires? God forbid your house is lost?
I think if you live there and you can feel empathy for your neighbors, take the shots. Maybe don’t include residents in them, but are you going to unfollow Willem Verbeeck for taking photos of it? If my town was my burning and my neighbors tried to tell me not to take photos of it, I think I’d be upset. Take the shots, raise awareness, document for historical significance, make art out of sadness, push for donations with your photos. It’d be amazing to see photo books of the fires where all the proceeds go towards relief funds.
Shit even if they weren’t affected it’d be alright as long as they weren’t titling their work “lolololol look at these losers”
19 episodes and I finally know the lyrics of what the guy sings in the intro by heart! "Baby you and me, been like a slow job pus-aben-fire-nower-abert-aow".
29:29 the only reason I want to move from medium to large formats is the movements, hearing the smartflex doesnt have it instantly killed the considerable amount of hype I had for that camera
I'm not saying switch to digital but I think you can talk about shorting digital. There are some really great "vintage" DSLR cameras available for cheap right now and can produce great photos.
What a treat just before the weekend starts. 🎉
I didn't take any photos. I am herre in LA and my wife volunteered, but I think about it this way. in the aftermath, we need to somehow take photos. But I think its important to come up with a serious plan for what and how.
more please i need film photography podcasts to listen to while im driving or something
Kurt Cobain was from Aberdeen Washington, not Astoria Oregon fyi.
Welcome back x
I need an entire video, regardless of duration, about Joker Folie a Deux. The musical elements make sense. Arthur stops taking his meds and as the effects of the meds wear off more, his delusions (musical numbers) start to become vivid and more intense. As you said, Jason, there are good segments of the movie, but as a whole it's okay. The R scene was a lot, and the only reason I can think of it existing is the corruption of Gotham and the disgusting nature of humanity. Other than that, I do think it could've been removed. The ending was dull and not what I was expecting how they done did Arthur. I also watched it because of the review bombs and hate, and since the movie doesn't hold your hand, people are just upset they have to think and figure things out.
If you guys ever do come to Estonia, hit me up. Let’s gooooo
Staring at the Mono the entire time. Come on, Jason, speak to it! 😊
Funny I lived around Frankfurt a.M for 6 years, and often drove past Wetzlar without thinking about it, least even thinking about visiting.
Nice video as always. You mentioned Oregon and Kurt Cobain. He was born in Washington . And yes. I agree 2025 does suck so far.
Nice Buc-ee's cup.
Have you guys read David Campany's short essay on Aftermath photography. If not you may find it a compelling read.
Wes Anderson is one of my favorites. Personally love the style
I remember seeing photos taken with aerochrome to document the aftermath wild fires in Australia. Dont remember who did it..
Guys, do not miss the chance to see The Brutalist in a cinema if you can. It’s an inspiring piece of work. Better than Joker 2, that’s for sure.
I think if you have a talent to capture a situation really well, then you have a certain historical duty to document that without monetising it
Need closed shelves for those cameras -- houses there rattle during earthquakes!
Is there a red filter on the wp1?
Help me Mammyagos, you're my only hope!
Automatic translation is terrible. It's translating the title of the show thinking it's spanish "mami y amigos", like "mom and friends"
Y'all need to get nick lopresti on the podcast, answer his dm's fellas come on
my lunchtime entertainment
The seven wonders are so weird, not the biggest, not the oldest, not the best designed, what is the traditional seven wonders of the world list based on?
One day I'm gonna look at a photo and like, oh yeah that's a J. Kum
If Caleb really wants to come to here in China to see the great wall and stuff, please come to Shanghai or Suzhou, I can be ur free guide lol
You guys should listen to The Pursuit Of Happiness and their track "I'm an adult" and you'll understand why you suddenly feel old.
As a journalist, I certainly would not be shooting film in that capacity. What would be the point? People have actually been fired for altering or Photoshopping jpegs. They only want jpegs - usually transmitted straight away with some news organizations. A fireworks storage area exploded and killed a couple of people near Kinston, N.C. a few years back and that was a difficult assignment. I had to speak to a few relatives and at some point they threatened to "sue" the paper if we used anyone's names. I found myself in a heated argument over the NY Times V. Sullivan lawsuit case where they didn't have a leg to stand on in a lawsuit as long as facts were presented. Then, it occurred to me I shouldn't even be arguing with these people. Eventually, we both apologized and everything calmed down and I was able to get what I needed. I have a friend in Pacific Palisades whose home and his neighbor's were the only houses standing in his neighborhood. Everything else was burned to the ground. They were lucky. "Shallow Grave" was one of the earliest movies I ever saw with Ewan McGregor. Coincidentally, he plays the journalist living in that house.
14:35. Yup, welcome to middle age.
20:30. Welcome to pro photography, shooting for clients. You are what they need you to be on the day.
Just chiming in to say that Aberdeen was Kurt's hometown, not Astoria.
Caleb don't listen to Jason, I saw The Brutalist in Imax with a whole 3 other people. There are dozens of us that like that move, dozens
I also wasn't a huge fan of Carry-on but I would say the critique against Tanner Eggerton's character "giving it away" actually does fits with the characters traits. He's a fuck up who makes mistakes a lot in his job. It makes sense he wouldn't be smart enough to realize he shouldn't have said that and thrown away the earpiece.
Jason i think the heartburn is from the flaming hot moutain dews
dude, did u see how much alcohol they consume 😆
it is what it is 2024
vs
it is what is it 2025
The Brutalist👍
Watching this vid from Estonia (the country). Oh boy that is not the same shit as pacific west “Estonia”
No need for the Dingdong after Shyamalan, thought you'd be better than that
If you go to vietnam plz hit me up man. I’ll give you a tour around Hanoi 😁 15:27
'The Big Ass Jesus', official name 😀
Donating the xpan? damn, thats a good friend.
Donating the xpan? damn, thats a good friend.
I wouldn‘t be surprised if LA was the area with the most XPan‘s, with Hollywood and stuff..
Is there a digital Leica on the shelves? Disappointed
Ketchup
Big ass Jesus statue hahahahahh
They act like they have real jobs and no time, you lot spend half your days trying on beanies and buying pants 4 inches too short.
But like why are you here? Weird move lmao
Thank god, another Wes Anderson hater
It's just gonna get worse. Choose another president maybe?
Not a chance!
How did none of us think of that??
"Choose another president" - Blah blah loser Leftist. - MAGA baby, it's in full swing❣
We did get rid of the dud! I just love listening to another Lib who cries because enough hasn’t changed since our new (real) leader has taken office 2 weeks ago! 🙄
Second
Thought you guys were really interesting to listen to, but it would be awesome if you did a version of this without all the harsh cuts in. This is a bit jarring to listen to.
I agree on the toddler... and I will raise you any child who is under the age of 13
