Halloween comes a little early this year as we talk about Argentinian author Agustina Bazterrica’s novel, “Tender is the Flesh”.  A vulgar story translated from Spanish, set in a dystopian world where cannibalism is normalised, this nasty book asks the question “what if humans were animals, man?!” Crazy stuff.We also talk about how Zac went to a bartender boxing event, explored the psyche of Google software engineers and Peter Singer, plus Amelia teaches us a little about her cultural roots and explains how truly fucked the history of Argentina is.Keep the show alive: https://www.patreon.com/jetski_paradise Follow us: https://www.instagram.com/jetskiparadise_pod/?hl=en 

Breakfast at Tiffany’s is not just a song by the incredible band Deep Blue Something, it’s also a book by Truman Capote (and a movie with some very strong character choices!!).This week, we talked about the differences between the book "Breakfast at Tiffany's" and the iconic film adaptation starring Audrey Hepburn, how writers are pathological liars and draft dodgers, and most importantly, we talked a lot about Pokemon Go. P.S Yeah, whatever neither of us recognised that Ariana Grande song, we too busy listenin' to the Deep Blue Something...Keep the show alive: https://www.patreon.com/jetski_paradise Follow us: https://www.instagram.com/jetskiparadise_pod/?hl=en 

When the world seems its darkest, a light will shine from the depths. That light is Jim Carrey’s memoir, Memoirs & Misinformation.A highly anticipated and semi-realistic autobiography by Jim Carrey (and Dana Vachon), this turbulent magnum opus of a tortured artist’s soul chronicles a SCATHING critique of celebrity culture, consumerism and toxic love triangles. Featuring an unauthorised all star cast of Nicholas Cage, a Marylin Monroe look alike, Gweneth Paltrow, Kelsie Grammar, we explored the wild and depressing world of Jim Carrey’s psyche through this tantalising tale that took eight years to make in collaboration with a “writer” / some guy who Carrey discovered online when Dana messaged messaged “BOOP” at him on twitter. Is this the best book ever written? Possibly. Is Jim Carrey a very sad guy? Yes. Legendary in his own right?  Absolutely. So hang on tight as we ride the wave of the true joker’s psyche.E. M. Forster: "What is wonderful about great literature is that it transforms the man who reads it towards the condition of the man who wrote."Keep the show alive: https://www.patreon.com/jetski_paradise Follow us: https://www.instagram.com/jetskiparadise_pod/?hl=en
