With me as always, the judge himself, Judge John Hodgman. We're gonna go into the courtroom in just a second, but first, this is week two of the MaxFunDrive. 00:00:16 John Promo Yeah, thank you so much for making week one so great! I mean, Hodgman look, we wanted to keep this, you know, MaxFun, but MinDrive, because it's such a strange time. But everyone in their own low-key and wonderful and supportive way, just all the shout-outs on Twitter, all the fun times we had together on the pub quiz, frankly it's been just a wonderful distraction for me. And obviously a huuuge boon to Maximum Fun. Because, you know, without MaxFun, without its members, we couldn't keep doing this show! This time or any time. Maximum Fun is audience supported, which means we're free to make the content you enjoy because people like you become members and contribute. 00:00:56 Jesse Promo We'll talk more about the MaxFunDrive later on in the show. But you can become a member now at MaximumFun.org/join. That's MaximumFun.org/join. Any level that you're comfortable with, and you can check out the great thank-you gifts we have this year there, too. That's MaximumFun.org/join. Now! On to this week's case!

  • Alan Sillitoe the LONELINESS of the LONG- DISTANCE RUNNER
    Alan Sillitoe THE LONELINESS OF THE LONG- DISTANCE RUNNER Published in 1960 The Loneliness of the Long-Distance Runner Uncle Ernest Mr. Raynor the School-teacher The Fishing-boat Picture Noah's Ark On Saturday Afternoon The Match The Disgrace of Jim Scarfedale The Decline and Fall of Frankie Buller The Loneliness of the Long-Distance Runner AS soon as I got to Borstal they made me a long-distance cross-country runner. I suppose they thought I was just the build for it because I was long and skinny for my age (and still am) and in any case I didn't mind it much, to tell you the truth, because running had always been made much of in our family, especially running away from the police. I've always been a good runner, quick and with a big stride as well, the only trouble being that no matter how fast I run, and I did a very fair lick even though I do say so myself, it didn't stop me getting caught by the cops after that bakery job. You might think it a bit rare, having long-distance crosscountry runners in Borstal, thinking that the first thing a long-distance cross-country runner would do when they set him loose at them fields and woods would be to run as far away from the place as he could get on a bellyful of Borstal slumgullion--but you're wrong, and I'll tell you why. The first thing is that them bastards over us aren't as daft as they most of the time look, and for another thing I'm not so daft as I would look if I tried to make a break for it on my longdistance running, because to abscond and then get caught is nothing but a mug's game, and I'm not falling for it.

  • Plural Subjectivity in Stargate SG-1
    Language, Literature, and Interdisciplinary Studies (LLIDS) ISSN: 2547-0044 ellids.com/archives/2020/07/3.4-Ferebee.pdf CC Attribution-No Derivatives 4.0 International License www.ellids.com “Pain in Someone Else’s Body”: Plural Subjectivity in Stargate SG-1 K.M. Ferebee Abstract Lennard Davis, in his work on visualizing the disabled body, argues that at root the body is inherently and always already fragmented. The unified “whole body” is, therefore, hallucinatory in nature—an imaginary figure through which the body’s multiplicity is repressed. There is much in this view that is consonant with posthumanism, which so often seeks to destabilize the “whole” and singular one in favor of the multiple, the fragmentary, and the hybrid. Yet despite these considerations of the body as fragmentary, little attention has been paid to the value of considering the body not only as fragmentary, but also as potential fragment. What might we learn by rejecting anthropocentric assumptions about the body-mind’s inherent completeness, and exploring the radically plural ontologies offered by visions of shared, joint, or group body-minds? This paper turns to science fiction as a source of such visions, considering depictions of symbiotic and hive minds through the non-traditional models of ontology and agency. While science fiction has traditionally represented plural being as a troubling and fearful injury to wholeness, this paper aims to highlight the symbiotic Tok’ra1 of television series Stargate SG-1 as a model of excess being that not only challenges the naturalization of the “complete” body, but also asks us to interrogate presumed boundaries between self and other.
