This week on Coffee with Comrades, we sit down for a conversation with Kaleb Morgan, founder and co-host of the horror-review podcast, Macabre Media. But first, Mel catches us up on her adventures and journalism while galavanting through Europe.
Current Events:
- Rideshare drivers recognize shared interest, but the gig economy demands new tactics.
- People are hiring private police squads in Detroit.
- Artificially intelligent drones may soon be patrolling Europe's borders.
- Chelsea Manning has been released from jail, but her fight is not yet over. Support Manning's legal fund if you can!
In this episode, we chat about avant-garde horror and focus on two works of cinema in particular, Antichrist by Lars Von Trier and Pier Paolo Pasolini's Salò, or the 120 Days of Sodom. During the course of this dialogue, we chat about horror story-telling, Pearson's quest to find the most fucked up movie ever made, violence, patriarchy, and fascism.
This discussion originally appeared as Episode 2 of Macabre Media, "The Shadows We Cast."
