True Lies
Manage episode 210568066 series 2362189
One of us always tells lies...one of us always tells the truth...but what IS the truth, really? We're digging deep this week with the films Rashomon and Life of Pi, discussing absolutes, equivocations, and whether a single noble lie can balance out a thousand false promises.
We'll also discuss Satre's concepts of "bad faith" and "the look" (na na na na!), the soap opera Dallas, and getting called poindexter at a comedy show. (It makes sense in context, I promise.)

The Atlantic - “Life's Stories”
The Invention of Lying (trailer)
True Detective - pessimism: religion and fairy tales
The Hogfather - ‘Belief’ as according to Death
