All The President's Minutes - Minute 45 with Jacob Knight
All the President's Minutes is a podcast where conversations about movies, journalism, politics and history meet. Each show we use the seminal and increasingly prescient 1976 film All The President's Men as a portal, to engage with the themes and the warnings of the film resonating since its release. For minute 45, I join writer for Rebeller, Fangoria, Dark Moon Digest and connoisseur of movie trash-art, Jacob Knight. Jacob and I discuss to the allure of the idiosyncratic, the dopamine rush of chasing the truth in President's and David Fincher's Zodiac and Jacob advocates for the upcoming documentary Alan Pakula: Going for Truth.
About Jacob Knight
Rising from the sewers of Philadelphia, Jacob Knight is a man out of time currently residing in Austin, TX. When not lamenting the Disneyfication of our current culture, he's usually enjoying a whiskey, watching some form of disreputable trash cinema, or drunkenly perusing one of the few remaining video stores. No matter what, do not @ him.
