TLPP: What’s an Indie Flick, Really with Jason ...
What I like about Substack is that its algorithm doesn’t feed me things that will only make me angry — unlike some other social-media platforms, ⁠where you should totally be following me⁠. If I’m not angering you here — I most definitely will over there. So I have the Sub coders to thank for feeding me Jason Noto. On this episode of The Lou Perez Podcast, I talk with the filmmaker about getting audiences back into movie theaters, the trauma of producing a feature film only to watch it drown in the slipstream(ing), and what it’s like to have worked with Timothée Chalamet (“Timmy” to Jason) and Elisabeth Moss before their careers blew up. You can watch the pre-Mad Men, pre-Handmaid’s Tale, Moss in Noto’s El Camino (full movie on YouTube) and his latest feature film, ⁠Beyond the Night⁠ on Amazon.

TBNS: Why “Live and Let Live” FAILS
Is freedom possible without virtue — and who should set society’s standards? That’s the big question we tackle in this episode of The Brian Nichols Show. Too often, people confuse “disliking” something with wanting government to ban it. But there’s a critical difference between using the state to enforce morality and letting society set boundaries through persuasion, stigma, and cultural norms.
