On 14 November 2007, a bozo dystopian science fiction musical satire escaped into cinemas, and almost disappeared without a trace. Almost two decades have passed, and Richard Kelly’s Southland Tales feels more relevant than ever. Join Aaron, David and Sam as they embark on a cosmic odyssey through one of cinema’s most poignant attempts at wrestling with the weird now of the 21st century. We will go through the picture scene by scene, from the thermonuclear attack at Abilene to Justin Timberlake’s show-stopping performance of a 2000s indie rock classic. This is the only podcast where Philip K Dick and Kevin Smith co-exist. So shoot up on some fluid karma, watch out for Jon Lovitz, and let’s dig in.

#4- The Remy Gospel
<p>They called it…the memory gospel. That’s right, it’s the next instalment of A Southland Tales Podcast. Today we take a tour of USIDent, the fictional state surveillance organisation that’s dedicated to reading your little emails and tracking your perverted online activity. Of course, nothing like that could ever happen in real life.</p> <p>Topics include: The Patriot Act, Sam’s controversial views on Brad Bird’s Ratatouille, the influence of film noir, David Attenborough, funk art, and the surprisingly high number of Southland Tales cast members who also guest starred in House. Don’t say we don’t give you a lot to chew on.</p>

#3 - A Tale of Two Taverners
<p>Come and ride with us, listeners - we chat through the convoluted backstory of Ronald Taverner, a Neo-Marxist operative who has gone undercover as a racist LAPD cop for…reasons. This episode covers Boxer and Ronald’s long drive through the city outskirts - and it turns out there was a lot to discuss!</p> <p>Topics of concern include: Brian De Palma’s Hi Mom, Voight-Kampf Tests, Jason Biggs's acting career, surveillance culture, and the commonplace problem of post-coital vomiting.</p>

#2 - The first 20 minutes, more or less
<p>Yep, you heard it right. We begin our journey into the Southland with an extended look at the film's infamously dense opening sequence. From the Doomsday Scenario Interface to Sarah Michelle Gellar's performance as the clairvoyant adult star Krysta Now, there's a lot to chew through. Expect references to unfairly maligned Brian De Palma movies, 9/11 conspiracy theories, and the Book of Revelation.</p>
