futile

1 Corinthians 3:16-22

In this week's episode, I'm talking about comparison & how it is a waste of our precious, life-force energy. Imagine re-directing this energy into knowing & loving ourselves more, and the benefits that could bring? That's what I'm exploring in this episode.

This week, we wrap up the season with antibiotic resistance. Since the inception of antibiotics, we've noticed resistance developing as well, but frankly haven't done much about it. I'll go through how we got here, and what we can still do about it.

"Doctor?" we can hear you ask. "Doctor who?" Which you're asking either because you're an insufferable nerd (like the rest of us), or because you legitimately don't know. In which case, it is incumbent upon us to inform you that the Doctor is an alien Time Lord who flies haphazardly through time and space in a magic phone booth called the TARDIS, solving problems and saving people. And this week, we put those skills to the ultimate test, as the Doctor (the tenth Doctor, specifically -- ask an insufferable Who nerd about his various incarnations sometime, they will have OPINIONS) must solve the ultimate problem: the adaptable, unstoppable cyborg hive mind known throughout the Star Trek universe as the Borg. Can the Doctor save a helpless colony of humans from assimilation at the hands of a bigger, badder, sexier version of the Daleks and the Cybermen? Or will he once again have cause for terrible, eternal regret?

To find out, the Smash Fiction collective has assimilated the biological and technological distinctiveness of game designer Jeff Stormer, of the Party of One, All My Fantasy Children, and Talking Nog podcasts (in our defense, he totally lowered his shields and surrendered his ships). Also, Miles repeatedly insults Montana in a bad British accent, MeganBob has many, many feelings about Star Trek characters, and the Lightning Round gets even weirder than usual, which, yes, that is apparently possible.

We are Smash Fiction. You will listen to this episode. Resistance is futile.

We sit down with Ann to discuss her new book “Resistance Is Futile!: How the Trump-Hating left Lost Its Collective Mind.” Not only does she break down many of the chapters but she links them to other books she’s written and we get to see the progression of the progressive nervous breakdown that threatens us all.

How does a family deal with a dad that is manic depressive?  That's the central question of this week's film, Infinitely Polar Bear.  Mark Ruffalo must learn to deal with his mental illness while also taking care of his two daughters while his wife tries to get her degree.  The CTC crew also looks at celebrity deaths, new releases, and the films we watched last week.  Oh and a long discussion of the James Gunn situation.

Duncan Trussell invited me up to his compound in the mountains to explain to me what existentialism means. It's a heady conversation that I barely remember thanks to marijuana, but it was really interesting at the time. And it starts with a rational breakdown of the story of the Jewish holiday, Purim, in the intro.

SHOW NOTES: In the MYTH WARRIORS™ series we are targeting ideas to begin to assess whether they are credible or not. The topic for this episode is, “Trying to lean on someone who bends is futile.”

In many shows we share quotes from famous (or infamous) or notable individuals. Yet, information comes from all types of sources. I was reading a public forum about medical sleep disorders and found the quote that is the show topic at http://forums.narcolepsynetwork.org/index.php?/topic/6237-breaking-up-cuz-he-just-doesnt-care/.

We are not evaluating the credibility of this public internet discussion forum, but instead are assessing the content of the assertion. Is it a myth that when we try to lean on (emotionally or physically) someone who bends that it will be pointless (or futile)?

If our goal is to lean on someone and remain standing (literally or figuratively), it is logical that if I lean on someone for support (to remain standing) and they bend that I will fall. Thus, it is futile to lean on something that is not stable enough to support (or hold) me. But, how do we know who will bend and who will hold us? The most helpful answer is [...]
