#137 Confidently Crazy
<p>I share my thoughts on the controversial film Joker 2, a movie that has sparked a wide range of reactions. As a fan of musicals, I found the film's unique blend of drama, music, and tragedy to be a bold and refreshing take on the Joker character. Despite the backlash, I believe the film offers a profound character study on identity and societal expectations. In the second half of the episode, we shift gears to discuss health in America. Inspired by a recent Joe Rogan episode featuring Casey and Calley Means, we explore the critical role of nutrition and lifestyle in combating chronic diseases. The conversation highlights the systemic issues within the healthcare industry and the importance of taking personal responsibility for our health. I share my personal journey and the impact of my father's health struggles, emphasizing the need for a cultural shift towards healthier living.<br /><br />AMERICAPLUS is committed to exploring the deeper questions that shape our world.<br /><br /><a href="https://www.podhome.fm/?via=cole" target="_blank">Podhome Hosting</a><br /><a href="https://www.paypal.com/paypalme/mccormick565?locale.x=en_US" target="_blank">Paypal</a><br /><a href="https://indeehub.studio/film/e1331e85-d165-49c8-b3e2-674aba7fb40d" target="_blank">The Break In</a></p>

#136 I SAW MEGALOPOLIS
<p>Welcome back to another episode of AMERICAPLUS! I'm your host, Cole McCormick, and today we're diving into a cinematic journey that has been years in the making. It's a beautiful September evening, and I'm thrilled to share my thoughts on Francis Ford Coppola's latest film, Megalopolis. This film, which has been a topic of discussion on this podcast for quite some time, finally came to fruition, and I had the privilege of experiencing it.<br />Megalopolis is a Roman epic set in a fictional version of New York called New Rome. It's a genre-bending, reality-bending film that draws parallels between the fall of Rome and modern America. With a star-studded cast including Laurence Fishburne, Aubrey Plaza, Shia LaBeouf, Jon Voight, Dustin Hoffman, Adam Driver, and Giancarlo Esposito, this film is a complex and challenging masterpiece that requires multiple viewings to fully absorb. Join me as I unpack the layers of this film, discuss its reception, and explore the broader implications of its themes. Whether you're a film buff or someone interested in societal questions, Megalopolis is a film that deserves your attention. Let's dive into this cinematic adventure and see what it reveals about our world and ourselves.<br /><br /><a href="https://www.podhome.fm/?via=cole" target="_blank">Host Your Podcast with Podhome</a><br /><a href="https://www.paypal.com/paypalme/mccormick565?locale.x=en_US" target="_blank">Paypal</a><br /><a href="https://www.youtube.com/@Cole_McCormick" target="_blank">Youtube</a><br /><a href="https://twitter.com/_ColeMcCormick" target="_blank">X</a></p>
