I get that this poor guy is shielding his face but, man, does he look dejected to be in this situation

A new 3-disc 4k version of THREADS from @severinfilms.bsky.social , featuring an interview with me. They're doing the same for THE WAR GAME with another interview from me. Great news, and I was so honoured to be asked.

NEW EPISODE We're nearly at the end of the film. Which one next? I'm thinking either Strangelove or The Day After.

Can't wait to be made phenomenally depressed in ultra high definition

NEW EPISODE Shadow Libraries

NEW EPISODE Shadow Libraries

Recording a pod on the use of libraries as nuclear shelters. It's cute that Staten Island told residents its libraries could provide shelter in war, the exception being Great Kills Library, as it was made of wood. Wooden building stuffed with paper? Great Kills indeed.

It’s only a film …

Monday's pod episode is on civil defence in North Carolina. Here's the state's portrayal of radiation casualties. I like how blunt the last box is: coffins and crosses. But in the top box, is there a wee man throwing his arms up in glee? "Yassss, no obvious effects!"
