This was a great episode, really enjoying this format. I’m new to crypto k but something about this work where cryptology meets synchronicity seems like we’re headed down the right path to figure out wtf all of this is. Since the first episode you posted I’ve gone and listened back to all of Mark’s features on syncbook.com. Hearing his voice has really endeared me to the guy and I think your work is a great tribute to his memory. In the world of 2025 where conspiracy is shoved down our throats in such a cut and dry manner, its so refreshing to hear people just trying to connect the dots instead of drawing conclusions.
Ps. I was able to find the Interstellar episode of Moon Room Cinema but nothing else- if you still have those would love to listen. Thanks Alex!
Oh nice man! I will be looking forward to it. I love listening to those early to mid 2010’s recordings. It’s a great snapshot of the time. I was young still and not in this realm of thinking so it’s nice to be able to look at those things I lived thru but wasn’t really aware. I found you from Robert Phoenix’s show btw and then listened to his episode on Always Record and got this whole new take on him hearing him 10 years younger. He’s the best lol. Cheers
That was a really good discussion. It was interesting to hear Robin Thicke was born on the day of the Polanski rape as obviously the song Blurred Lines is about sexual consent and TI raps these lines which I now realise are obviously about Polanski.
Go from Malibu to Paris, boo (yeah)
Had a bitch, but she ain't bad as you (uh-uh, ey)
So, hit me up when you passin' through
I'll give you something big enough to tear your ass in two
A couple of other things that popped up when listening....
The line "Wendy Darling, Light of my life" right before Wendy hits Jack with the bat are Kubrick referencing JM Barrie and Nabokov right at the moment Wendy realises Jack is sexually abusing Danny. Nabokov said Lewis Carroll was the original Humbert Humbert.
In EWS we see a close up of Helena next to a doll of Marilyn Monroe in her Little Girl From Little Rock dress. The lyrics of the song are a clue to Helena's fate. There's also 'wined, dined and ermined' which ties in with LeeLee Sobieski saying 'cloak of Ermine'
… We're just two little girls from Little Rock.
We lived on the wrong side of the tracks.
But the gentlemen friends who used to call,
They never did seem to mind at all.
They came to the wrong side of the tracks.
… Then someone broke my heart in Little Rock,
So I up and left the pieces there.
Like a little lost lamb I roamed about,
I came to New York and I found out
That men are the same way everywhere.
… I was young and determined to be wined and dined and ermined
And I worked at it all around the clock.
Now one of these days in my fancy clothes,
I'm a going back home and punch the nose
Of the one who broke my heart (the one who broke my heart)
The one who broke my heart in Little Rock, Little Rock, Little Rock... Little Rock
… I'm just a little girl from Little Rock,
A horse used to be my closest pal.
Though I never did learn to read or write,
I learned about love in the pale moonlight
And now I'm an educated gal.
… I learned an awful lot in Little Rock,
And here's some advice I'd like to share:
Find a gentleman who is shy or bold,
Or short or tall, or young or old.
As long as the guy's a millionaire!
… For a kid from the small street I did very well on Wall Street,
Though I never owned a share of stock.
And now that I'm known in the biggest banks,
I'm going back home and give my thanks
To the one who broke my heart (the one who broke my heart)
Recall that the 1965 Beatles film "Help!" was "respectfully dedicated to the memory of Mr. Elias Howe, who, in 1846, invented the sewing machine." Why Elias Howe? And the sewing machine featured in that final shot on a Bahamian beach, where cultists are trying to sacrifice Ringo, is a Singer sewing machine. Isaac Singer claimed to be the inventor. But Howe would eventually get that credit after a costly court battle. Howe and Singer would later join forces. Singer's business partner, Edward Clark, built the Dakota Apartment Building in New York. So, 8 years before moving into the Dakota (where Polanski's "Rosemary's Baby" is set), Lennon moves in - 7 years before being murdered outside that very building. Interestingly, Elias Howe claimed he came up with the idea for the sewing machine after having a nightmare involving cannibals wanting to kill him with spears - spears that looked like sewing needles moving up and down. This made me think of "The Shining" and the cannibalism angle. After all, "The Shining" name was a reference to John Lennon's "Instant Karma" - "we all shine on ..."

thank you! I'm glad to hear more people are discovering Mark via my blog. your comment means alot.
the old MRC episodes are somewhere on an old hard drive that's packed away, but I do plan on eventually remastering and re-releasing them here!
