Hundreds of thousands of people walked out of Lifespring as true believers, convinced that the seminars had the power to change the world. ...

What if the technology from your favorite 90s heist film was more real than you thought? Unlock the secrets behind the 1992 classic "Sneakers" as we, your hosts Dave, Matt, and Zap, embark on a nostalgic exploration of its intricate plot and stellar cast. With Robert Redford and Sir Ben Kingsley leading the charge, we discuss everything from the film's clever caper storyline to its impressive box office success. Discover the challenges of streaming this hidden gem today and relive the magic through standout performances and cultural references that defined an era.
Our conversation doesn't stop at the film's storyline. Get ready for a fascinating dive into the authenticity of the technology portrayed, as we compare the fictional 1969 university setting to the tech realities of the 1980s. We reminisce about tech-themed films like "WarGames" and share amusing cultural connections, such as a nostalgic nod to the band Color Me Badd. The ethical dilemmas posed by the film’s mysterious black box serve as a springboard for discussing the evolution of technology in cinema and its lasting impact on society.
Join us as we highlight the comedic and thrilling elements of "Sneakers," from clever password tricks to high-stakes heist sequences reminiscent of a Rube Goldberg machine. We draw connections to real-life hacking events that inspired the film and reflect on how these early explorations of technology continue to resonate today. With a sneak peek into upcoming episodes and a shoutout to our fantastic theme music creators, the Tsunami Experiment, we promise an engaging and entertaining journey through vintage cinema.
