Excellent stuff!

This film may have caught the eye of Kubrick so that Gary ended up in the highlight of his career 2001

Silverblatt was a very clever and conscientious interviewer. What diminishes his achievement into something approaching insignificance is the weakness of American literature in the last 60 years. Culture is cyclical everywhere. American literature had two periods of general strength: 1830-65, 1925-65. A few greats fall mostly outside of those periods, like Henry James, Cormac McCarthy, A.R. Ammons. Not only is ours a weak period, it has grown weaker as time has passed. Ammons and McCarthy are now dead--and their best work is now a generation or more behind us.

Korea's suicide rate is on the OECD average. Excluding OECD countries, Russia's suicide rate is four times that of Korea. But why do people in all countries put such false prejudice on only Koreans? Why are they so hateful toward us? Why are they so hostile to us? I am truly curious. Why are Westerners so wicked-hearted and dehumanized?

Fascinating

Great video, thank you very much , note to self(nts) watched 48:36

Just about finished John Nathan's memoirs. So this is a wonderful accompaniment. Thank you.

Watching this also reminded me of why I enjoy watching Adam-12 so much.

I love seeing what Los Angeles looked like the year I was born. It still looked similar to this from my first recollections of the early seventies. Many of these cars were still on the road but would soon be replaced by the popular fuel efficient Japanese imports of the seventies.

Colin, thank you for putting Tom's optimistic voice out here for everyone to hear. I hope that folks discover ZBS as a result, too.

Thank you. It was great.

콜린 마샬님! 저의 친구 마이클 엘리엇을 추모해 주셔서 감사합니다. 며칠 전에 동아일보에 쓰신 글도 잘 읽었습니다. 이 채널은 구독은 이미 했습니다. 항상 건강하시고 한국에서의 생활이 콜린님의 인생에 뜻 깊고 행복한 일들로 가득하기를 기원하겠습니다.

Sounds like a great book!

The chinese has changed your english slightly

종종 보러올게요 응원해요 ㅎㅎ

우연히 콜린 마샬씨의 방송을 보게 되었어요. 저는 저를 전지적 시점으로 보려고 노력중인데요. 넓게는 제 삶의 공간 전부를 3자의 눈으로 보려고 하는데 쉽지 않더라고요. 그러던 중 Mr.마샬씨의 이야기를 듣고 다시 마음을 다잡아 봅니다. 시야를 넓게 보는 의미와 같은 맥락도 있는 거 같아요. Mr.마샬씨의 철학이 많은 분들에게 알려지면 좋겠어요. 기회가 되신다면 세바시에도 출연하시면 좋겠어요^^ 어제 방송보고 바로 Mr.마샬씨의 도서를 구매했습니다. 저도 Mr.마샬씨의 멋진 생각에 동의하며 저의 삶도 습관도 그렇게 바뀌면 좋겠습니다. 좋은 말씀 감사합니다. 책 읽고 제 느낌도 올릴게요. 오늘도 평안한 날 보내세요❤

How does this only have 42 views….thanks for putting this up

I became the universe when I was 7. It made me think there was a god and it was me. The shocking bit was, I as an individual, was an illusion. Then much later I had an experience of seeing my soul, hidden inside my breath. A paradox perhaps.

대본은 직접 쓰셨을까요? 내용도 너무 좋고 어휘선택이나 억양도 너무 훌륭하십니다! 저는 콜린님과 반대로 한국인으로 현재 미국에 살며 영어를 배우고 있습니다. 실력이 원하는만큼 늘지 않아 답답하지만 조급해하지 않고 즐겨야겠다는 깨달음을 얻고 갑니다!

Pretty good book about a creepy lecherous misanthrope. Tough childhood notwithstanding. Saw him once on the street buying a hotdog while talking to a couple staff women presumably. Week before he died. Didn’t look healthy, I remember thinking. Had some great programming granted.

Great 👍

Interview alexander theroux again

Long live Silverblatt!!!

thank you for posting

Nice interview :)

the guy 30min in what a pompus twat

fuck off thare is no bad album

two fa hazy jane pt two and northan sky two of the best songs ever written

Has the interview considered the reason a production company in the 1930's may have chosen an actor of non European decent fit the lead roll of Charlie Chan, is that the pool of actors for a lead may have had no Asian actors of that caliber, to carry a film as lead? It was likely NOT for nefarious reasons for the most obvious reasons. All other Asian characters were portrayed by Asian actors quite wonderfully. Wouldn't we expect that they also would have been of non Asian decent? Let's be a little fair gentlemen.

This is one of my favorite author interviews ever LOL it's so refreshing to hear an author so openly pissed about being ignored. I understand Laura Warholic being misunderstood and ignored but i cant believe people were trying to paint him as a racist. His first novel was entirely about racism!

spirit, one of my favorite bands of the 60s.

As a syntopical indexer for the 1990's edition of GBWW (I indexed Democracy in America), I agree that it is a most unused book. But the research is there for anyone who wants it . The essays bring you up to speed quickly on the history of the idea and the outlines are valuable if you want to explore a topic. I just ordered the book and look forward to reading it.

I've read all 60 volumes of the Great Books. It took me 5 years. 18:15 102 "ideas."

How do you get access to her book . There is no copy available any where

Impossible to hear the conversation because the music is too loud

Of course I do realize that standards were quite different (i.e. more primitive) back in the early seventies when it came to stage performance by rock artists. Nevertheless, hearing all these stories about Nick Drake’s failed career, due to his not-performing, I can’t help wondering why not anyone, having a right mind about Nick’s music, came up with the idea to have him performing in a suitable ambience, which could have been small theatres, where audiences can focus on the artist’s playing, rather than in some noisy alcoholic joint. Adding two or three guitars to his equipment, all set in a desired tuning so that no time needed to be wasted on retuning (meanwhile losing the audience’s attention) would have done the trick, together with a decent P.A.-system (which were already available at the time). Anyway, just a thought, a rather useless one, I admit, as it’s wining over spilt milk. Thanks for uploading this series of interviews and my compliments for the interviewing style (all good questions, which is certainly not common in interviews).

"the killing of the creative class", literally - the dude committed suicide. RIP Scott Timberg.

Thank you for posting this! Pete was one of my mentors, studied under him at George Mason University and just adored him. The epitome of the Gentle Giant. And it makes me so sad to hear him speak of that upcoming Cannes, as he would die there, at breakfast, that June. No place he would rather be when he passed away, I'm sure. Legend.

Andy sheppard is the producer!!!

Thanks for posting, Ive wanted to read it, but it seems imposible to find a copy.

thanks for this, colin

💝

I certainly can agree that the elective system was/is a terrible concept. I was poorly served by counselors and advisors. I was not discouraged from taking electives even as a college freshman. I have used the GBWW to enhance my education ever since my university graduation.

Is he still there ten years later?

The moment I realized that my "self" didn't end at my skin (or conversely, there never was a Self to begin with) was when I understood what Buddha/Taoists/Zen Masters understood. And I also realized that I fit the description of "atheist." There is no creator - or creator and creation is the same thing. But trying to describe "IT" is like trying to grab your own fist, bite your own teeth, or taste your own tongue. Forever Now.

This movie, They Live & Terminator ll. Great review. I remember seeing this in the theater. Man how cool, awesome Arcade back then too. Non anymore with actual Arcade cabinet video game machines 😢

Oh Jonathan... The Tricorn? 😮😂

WTF? Breen be English.

Any more recent interviews of Momus ?
