It’s pilot three of three! Now that we’re teetering on the edge of uncertainty, with only a couple Super Special books left before we need to find something new to podcast about, we’ve got one last podcast concept for you to check out.
This week, Tanner and Bolphunga the Unrelenting are trying something a little different. We’re calling it High Brow/Low Brow and it’s an exercise in drawing suppositional insights from a text or body of work in an effort to elevate that work to a level of discourse fitting the standards of academia. Which is to say that we talk about dumb stuff like comic books in a smart way. Oh, and vice versa.
This week, we’ve prepared two selections:
- “The Waste Land” by T. S. Eliot
- The first three trade paperback collections of Geoff Johns’ run on the Green Lantern comics, including:
- Green Lantern: Rebirth
- Green Lantern, Vol. 1: No Fear
- Green Lantern Corps: Recharge
We hope you enjoy! We’ll be back to our regularly scheduled nonsense next week.
Music Credits:
- “Sonatina No. 1 in C Major - I. Allegro” by Aaron Dunn
- “Song Groove (Abortion Papers)” by Michael Jackson
- “The Waste Land” (Audio Recording) by T.S. Eliot
The theme song for High Brow/Low Brow is “Grizzly Bear Sharktopus” by Holy Coast (with some lyrical accompaniment from Tanner Greenring).
