The End of the World with Michael and Stu
The Apocalypse is Everywhere. The End of the World with Michael and Stu is a (hopefully) insightful and (hopefully) humorous exploration of the rise of apocalyptic news, apocalyptic thinking and apocalyptic culture. Each week, we’ll be looking at a work of art, a piece of media, or an historical event related to the (hopefully not) impending End of the World.
The End of the World with Michael and Stu
Episode 6: Dr. Strangelove
Michael and Stu discuss Stanley Kubrick's 1964 black comedy, Dr. Strangelove or, How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb. Are the concerns of this film relevant to a contemporary audience? Have we left the frightening world of nuclear apocalypse behind? Were our childhoods shaped, in various ways, by the terrifying vision of this film? Do we still love the bomb? The answers to these questions and so much more can be found in this episode.
Also: we discuss developments in the exciting world of personal carbon footprint tracking.
This episode contains spoilers for Dr. Strangelove.
