My favorite thing ever is when a controversial ugly bastard gets pulled up on screen and immediately Sam says “oh he’s gotta go.” Happens like every episode and I laugh every time

[@sentaveliki425]

Sam is a graphic designer so when he sees ugly he just wants to get rid of it same way mustache guy was an artist

[@phoenixcrossfire]

Never forget the USS Liberty and the brave wool socks lost that day

That Bodies Exhibit creator deserves HIS OWN display… ‘Ahead of schedule’.

I agree with Sam 100%, this level of body desecration is beyond derelict.

I went to this with my grandma as a child. Extremely memorable. Fetus at every stage. Human nervous system.

Damn I visited Bodies in Venice. lol they do seem all Chinese now that I think about it

[@caulfield618]

This skinned corpses thing was big several years ago, making the museum rounds and being featured in Casino Royal. I thought it was an abomination at the time and still do.

Scanner Darkly is very good and the audiobook is on youtube

[@cevanfx40]

It's a great movie. I imagine the book is very good.

[@RearAdmiralMcSpanky]

The easiest way to get the most out of Philip K Dick’s novels is to fill in the blanks with what you know in the book. For example Flow My Tears, The Police Man Said the plot kind of ends with a minimal resolution unless you put together 1. The woman that died near the end is the lead West Coast’s Federal Police Chief’s incestuous wife. 2. Throughout the book there is a very strained relationship between the Police Chief and his debauched wife. 3. The police chief’s wife tacitly admits that her debauched drug fueled bisexual lifestyle is the result of the police chief’s withdrawl from their relationship and his hawklike focus on his work. 4. The main character becomes a non-person due to the police chief’s wife’s use of an experimental drug which manifest’s the user’s deepest desires 5. The police chief’s wife had met the main character before he was unpersoned and was a big fan of his work in entertainment and music prior to his unpersoning. 6. She dies from an OD while the main character is still an unperson. 7. Because of their incestuous relationship and the police chief’s uneven past with the futuristic totalitarian government the police chief is worried that if his sister-wife ends up dead and their real relationship discovered his political opponents will use her death as an excuse to finally kick him out of the government and put him in a gulag. Once you take all these points together it becomes clear that the Police’s Chief’s sister-wife used the drug to unperson the main character in an attempt to frame the MC for her death because it had been a fantasy she had and because she still loved her brother-husband and didn’t want him to be investigated by the police. Basically she manifested her own assassination on a metaphysical level and the drug caused this to create a reality in which this would happen without her husband-brother being blamed for it. With PKD novels you have to put what you know in the book together. His vague plot style is actually very subtle but once you catch on his books are the biggest mind-fucks. Flow My Tears is domestic politics on a whole other level. It’s a corruption investigation on a grand scale.

[@radthadd]

"I have no mouth and I must scream" is 100% realistic. Sam's wrong here

[@horselats]

Gunther looks absolutely simian with that giant gap between his nose and mouth. He looks like a cartoon mad doctor. Physiognomy stikes again.

[@radthadd]

Wow you guys like the stuff I like. Few people know or like about I have No Mouth and I Must Scream

[@whitekony1006]

Theres a great quote from "thus spake" about that heart-deep feeling when seeing ones inner-most self reflected in a piece of writing. Yeah,the boys have good taste in sci-fi, i couldnt believe my ears the first time i heard sam bring up jack vance and gene wolfe. I think the "new wave of sci-fi" will be remembered as one of the all time great periods of literature, its such a fertile spring of so many powerfully idiosyncratic writers. Ellison, farmer, ballard, moorecock, etc.

[@Lumbago1800]

The Bodies Exhibit came to my country once when I was younger, it was and felt weird asf

I think PKD is just bad at endings. I love his books. I didn't understand the point of Counter Clock World tho. It was fun but in terms of meaning I was lost.

[@notsorry3631]

I think he was a genius who was crossing the insanity line too often to stay coherent. His writing reminds me of those paintings you see by people drifting into alzheimers.

[@Michael-io6db]

Been going to body world since i was a kid. Have always loved it its great

[@torknick]

The Empire Never Ended

[@whitekony1006]

Harlan Ellison was one of my first sci-fi loves,found the "alone against tomorrow" collection on my dads bookshelf and spent the next 10 years reading everything of his i could. Im glad people have discovered "i have no mouth" but hes so much, much more than that. Hes definitely dark,often pessimistic, but i disagree that hes merely a purveyor of dystopia pornography. Its a shame how much of his work is out of print, but that goes for alot of guys. Check out half-past human by T.J. Bass, it was a lucky find from a "little free library". Rereading the "jesus incident" by Bill ransom and Frank Herbert, it poses really interesting questions about faith,free will, and what constitutes a human. And its got some interesting parralels with alleged hollywood practices, the rituals that allow one access to the inner circle of rulership.

[@bud389]

[@christdolphin69]

I don’t get why the host of these podcasts are so preoccupied that they can’t sit there with a keyboard and a mouse or even an iPhone to just cast whatever they want to google search and browse on the Internet than sitting there and telling their IT guy to scroll up a little more no scroll down no search search term not that one. No this is how it spelled.

I’ve seen body works it’s kinda cool I thought people donated there bodies not Chinese prisoners

[@notsorry3631]

Incorrect. A lot of those bodies did not consent to being presented. Some of them were probably donated but definitely not all.

[@notsorry3631]

I heard about a case where someone went missing and the family and I guess authorities were searching for them. Turns out the body was on display in one of these places. I can't remember where I heard about that but it definitely changed my opinions about these displays.

Only Jesus saves from hell. Jesus Christ died for our sins, was buried and rose again the third day (1 Corinthians 15:1-4 KJV). We are not saved by water baptism (1 Corinthians 1:17 KJV). Jesus shed His blood for our sins (Ephesians 1:7 KJV). We are saved by grace through faith, not our works (Ephesians 2:8-9 KJV).
