This would usually be a skip week, but the world is still being a jerk, so we made you a bonus, entirely unedited, and almost entirely off-topic episode. This time, in honor of the 1995 film's 1337-week anniversary, we talked about the finest movie about technology ever made, Hackers.
Topics, roughly:
Hackers
Mister The Plague
What David Bowie and Angelina Jolie have in common
Razor & Blade
The glory of Matthew Lillard
Counterculture
Queer (sub)text
Focal characters
Jay's sequel pitch
In retrospect, we should have talked way more about Phreak, played amazingly by Renoly Santiago. Sorry, Renoly! That's what we get for doing Hawk Talk without our usual outlines.
