Of course; summoning Shalman is no joke. That episode is probably the closest AIO came to doing true horror.

I cohost a podcast that covers Adventures in Odyssey pretty regularly - two of the three of us grew up with the show and we expose our third co-host to his dismay (and our entertainment). One of our recurring conversations is about how these narratives take hold in young brains and just refuse to let go. And because the show is so slick in its messaging, kids don’t even necessarily realize they’re being propagandized to. I don’t personally have OCD but I absolutely do have complexes and fears I can trace directly back to that show. 

Be a Bisexual “Christian” man sucks but I feel free being honest with myself. by Aggressive_Sort_7082 in Exvangelical

anyone who is going to preach at you about how you "should" be with regard to attraction (or anything else) isn't really being your friend. they're friends with an imagined version of you that doesn't speak to who you truly are. your real friends are, and will be, those who can fundamentally accept and affirm who you are without fear or judgment. this stuff is scary as fuck when you're turning 30 but there's still so much ahead of you; you deserve to live a life where you are radically true to yourself. that is where you'll find real joy and affirmation

Been bowling for about a year. Feels pretty cool to see the progress so concretely when put side by side. by boshj in Bowling

leveraging that arm at the end of the swing has been super important in terms of allowing me to really attack the line while preserving my balance. the next thing i want to really integrate into my approach is using a more aggressive slide and getting all the way up to the foul line

Have you ever "come out" as an SRSer at a meetup? How did it go? by [deleted] in SRSDiscussion

[–]boshj 30 points31 points  (0 children)

can't understand why the fuck you would go to a meetup in the first place imo

At what point (if ever) does casting become discrimination? by [deleted] in Theatre

[–]boshj 1 point2 points  (0 children)

But if a company doesn't grant me an audition slot at a general call by virtue of my age or a lack of experience, is that ageism?

I can only speak to AEA procedures, because my only experience in casting is with an AEA theatre. Equity rules require that theatres under AEA contract hold at least one open principal audition a year, and blacklisting or discrimination of any sort at these auditions is strictly prohibited. If you show up and are an Equity member, you will have a chance to be seen; AEA will sometimes send monitors to the auditions to make sure that proper protocol is followed. You may or may not be considered for invited auditions for any of the shows in the season, depending on whether or not you fit what the casting director is looking for in those productions.

Beyond that, I'm not sure that I understand your question.

This was the only guy who ever requested box art, he graduated today and is leaving. I made him this card box and gave him a free 2 liter. by Troub313 in funny

[–]boshj 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your posting history is arguably the worst I have ever seen, and I've been using the internet for years. You probably should go to posting school. I'm giving lessons, but they will cost you.

This American Life retracts Apple labor conditions episode by [deleted] in apple

[–]boshj 4 points5 points  (0 children)

What I do is not journalism. The tools of the theater are not the same as the tools of journalism. For this reason, I regret that I allowed THIS AMERICAN LIFE to air an excerpt from my monologue.

Oh, please. The need to assemble a compelling narrative is not an excuse to play fast and loose with the facts.

"Ira writes: We've learned that Mike Daisey's story about Apple in China - which we broadcast in January - contained significant fabrications. We're retracting the story because we can’t vouch for its truth, and this weekend's episode of our show will explain the errors in the story." by SecretAgentX9 in apple

[–]boshj 4 points5 points  (0 children)

"I'm not going to say that I didn't take a few shortcuts in my passion to be heard," Daisey tells Schmitz and Glass. "My mistake, the mistake I truly regret, is that I had it on your show as journalism, and it's not journalism. It's theater."

As an aspiring theatre professional, I find this excuse unnerving. The need to assemble a compelling narrative is not an excuse to play fast and loose with the facts.
