267 - Heat (with Roxana Hadadi!) (Patreon Selects)

This week, our first film selected by one of our sponsor-tier Patreon subscribers arrives, and we brought back Vulture's Roxana Hadadi to celebrate. In 1995, audiences were hyped to finally see an onscreen showdown between Al Pacino and Robert DeNiro in Michael Mann's Heat. But what promised to be a standard actioner on paper (on top of a battle of titans) was in actuality an existential tone poem on masculinity, with audiences feeling let down by the lack of fireworks in Pacino and DeNiro's brief but mighty scene. The film has since been reassessed, earning a vocal and devoted fanbase that hail the film as Mann's masterpiece.

This week, we talk about Mann's work studying the masculine mind and Pacino and DeNiro's 1990s periods. We also talk about Val Kilmer's Batman year, how the 1995 Oscars largely rejected darker material, and our thoughts on Mann's Ferrari.

Topics also include bisexual eyebrow piercings, our diner orders, and the Nyad towel.

Theme From C Bear and Jamal

Tone Loc

People think narcolepsy means you fall fast asleep without warning, and the boss gets furious that someone's snoring during his big speech at the important business meeting. Or you're checking your baggage at the airport, right, and clunk! Now your hands are folded neatly under your head as you zip across a series of conveyor belts, nestled between suitcases and boxes, and when you wake up in Timbuktu. I have not ever dropped to the floor and started snoring like a cartoon character. I didn't get an official diagnosis until just a few months ago, at age 34, because my experience with narcolepsy is so unlike anything I'd ever seen depicted in media that the possibility I might have it never even crossed my mind. When I was 28, I was working as a high school paraeducator. I was helping one of my kids on a health class assignment, a research project on narcolepsy. It was the fist time I'd seen any real information about the symptoms. Insomnia? That was a surprise. That's the opposite of what I thought narcolepsy was. Sleep paralysis? Weird, I have a long history of sleep paralysis, but it happens to everybody, right? And what is this word, cataplexy? Wait, that scary thing where my body goes limp and I lose all muscle tone has a name??? I called a doctor as soon as I could, begged for a sleep study, made the test's technicians laugh with how off-the-scales my results were, and returned to the doctor to be told... "Well, narcolepsy is really rare." I said, "Yes. It is rare. And some people have it. And I think I might be one of them." My current doctor, a specialist who was able to make a diagnosis from those same test results, says it's not common, but it's not that rare. My old doctor, like most people, just didn't know anything about narcolepsy. So let me contribute to public understanding in my small, anecdotal way. Narcolepsy is when I unconsciously take down all the little things that were stuck to the decorative shelf in my bedroom (I still haven't found all the pushpins I removed) before sleepwalking into someone else's room at 4:00 in the morning, all while dreaming about C Bear and Jamal. So when you bump into your shelf and it starts to fall - Narcolepsy, y'all! Pushpins in your hand and LEGO on the floor - Narcolepsy, y'all! When you sleepwalk down the hall and open up the door - Narcolepsy, y'all! It's the funky sleep disorder we don't fully understand

Collection of items from Skateland USA, Compton, CA. Important Hip Hop archive.

Archive of vintage posters, audio equipment, apparel, and original signage from the roller rink bearing the Skateland U.S.A name, considered to be one of the most influential birthplaces of west coast Hip Hop, in operation from 1984-1989 located at 1950 North Central Avenue in the city of Compton, south central Los Angeles, California.

Considered to be the most important Hip Hop venue in southern Los Angeles, the legendary roller rink Skateland U.S.A. hosted some of the most prominent and up-and-coming artists in the early eighties from coast to coast that would change the landscape of music forever.

Skateland opened its doors at 1950 N. Central Ave the night of November 17th, 1984. Owned and operated by Craig Schweisinger, a commercial agent who had witnessed the profitable nightclub atmosphere north of Compton at ‘rival’ rink World on Wheels, Skateland became an essential venue for some of the earliest names in Hip Hop including Dr. Dre, first as part of the opening night DJ group the World Class Wreckin Cru along with DJ Yella and Cli-N-Tel and later with Yella, Eazy-E, Ice Cube, MC Ren, and Arabian Price as N.W.A., Eric B & Rakim (who drew the largest crowd in Skateland’s history), Grandmaster Flash and the Furious Five (the first Hip Hop artists to be inducted into the Rock n’ Roll Hall of Fame in 2007), Mele Mel and Scorpio (two of the original members of the Furious Five), Eazy-E (first with CIA and Rapp In Stein and later, N.W.A.), EPMD, Toddy Tee, Mixmaster Spade and Latifah (before she became ‘Queen’), and Tone Loc who performed the penultimate show at Skateland.

The centerpieces of the collection are the original Technics SL-1200MK2 turntables, the only turntables used in the DJ booth by performing musicians – save for Run D.M.C – including a then-teenage Dr. Dre on opening night, one Numark DM-1450 Mixer, and one Craftsman EQ Equalizer. Also included are two hand painted signs, the first declaring “WELCOME TO SKATELAND, U.S.A” and featuring a list of rules required for entry, the second for the SNACK BAR, a spot where soon after performing as N.W.A, Dr. Dre, DJ Yella and Eazy-E could be found composing lyrics.
