  Jul 21, 20261h 50m

  Our SUMMER VACATION series reaches its thrilling conclusion with Christopher Nolan's take on the original summer vacation: The Odyssey (2026). We dive into this fine cheeseburger of a movie, discussing our favorite and least favorite segments, Tom Holland's accent, Nolan's impatient attempt to educate his own fanboys, and why you should stop worrying and love the convenient, non-IMAX screening near you.

  We're veering south on SUMMER VACATION to discuss Mitt Romney's favorite movie, the Coen Brothers' O Brother, Where Art Thou? (2000) with Mississippi-based musician Andrew Bryant, founding member of Water Liars. We discuss the film's reimagination of Homer's original vacation narrative, explore the relationship of politics, race, and cultural production, and Devin wonders why more parents aren't naming their kids James.

  Our SUMMER VACATION heads east as we discuss Hayao Miyazaki's Spirited Away (2001) with returning guest General Slug, art director of Protean Magazine, noted weeb, and, of course, Devin's girlfriend.* We discuss the film's childlike view of a financially stagnate and spiritually polluted Japan, the relationship between identity, work, and leisure, No Face's speculative disruption of the bathhouse economy, and the film's ultimate fantasy: a boyfriend who is also a horse (and a dragon... and a wolf?). *fiancée Follow us on Twitter, Instagram, or BlueSky at @youretallpod.

  Our SUMMER VACATION continues as we journey down to Paris, Texas (1984) with the help of Jourdain Searles.
