The Thaw & Die Grenze
Manage episode 454687891 series 10513
Jeff walks to the edge of Berlin and explains why the Here Be Monsters feed has been quiet for so long.
On the way, Jeff talks about plans for upcoming episodes, looks at the ways that moving to Berlin has changed him, and discusses a pair of films featuring Tilda Swinton: Cycling the Frame (1988), and The Invisible Frame (2009). Both movies feature Swinton riding a bicycle around the entirety of the Berlin Wall—or, in the case of the latter, where the Berlin Wall used to be.
