Chapter 1: What is 'Disclosure' about?

0.289 - 20.78 Bill Simmons

What's happening? It's Todd McShay, and I'm back with a new home and a new show at The Ringer and Spotify, The McShay Show. It's a video and audio podcast coming to you year-round with all my NFL draft information, big boards, mock drafts, and player movement. Plus, I'll be chatting with some of my best friends in football, including some of your favorite football analysts.

21.34 - 38.713 Bill Simmons

During the week, we'll have episodes on Tuesdays and Thursdays that'll include discussions about my player rankings, who's rising, who's falling, and who your NFL team should be keeping an eye on. Plus, we'll be reacting each week to the college football playoff polls and giving you previews and picks for each Saturday slate.

In addition, I'll have episodes on Saturday nights with my immediate reaction to the full day in college football every week. So if you love the college game, the NFL, the draft, or all of it like me, make sure to like, follow, subscribe, and get ready for the McShay Show on The Ringer, Spotify, and wherever you watch or listen to podcasts.

On fire right now. On fire?

75.508 - 76.43 Unnamed Speaker

Is that what the kids are saying?

76.45 - 77.632 Unnamed Speaker

That's what the kids are saying. We're on fire.

77.652 - 97.81 Unnamed Speaker

Higher learning. Ringerverse with Van Lathan. Exciting news for us on the Rewatchables. We're partnering up with Lionsgate. We've already done Den of Thieves as a pod. We're doing it again because the sequel's coming out this winter, and we have space for a very limited number of listeners to join us for an intimate live show on December 16th in downtown Los Angeles. Fans are going to be involved.

98.39 - 116.188 Unnamed Speaker

I will. Space is limited, so if you don't get a ticket, don't worry. We'll do more big shows, bigger audience shows next year. But for now, if you live in L.A. and you're free next Monday, December 16th, register now at bit.ly slash rewatchablesden.com. while space permits, or just click the link in this episode's description. Hope to see you there.

117.089 - 125.014 Unnamed Speaker

There might not be another Rewatchables episode after this week, because we're about to do Disclosure, and I don't know what the hell's going to happen, but it's next.

Chapter 2: How does 'Disclosure' reflect corporate culture?

1923.217 - 1931.559 Unnamed Speaker

I thought the movie was pretty good about, like, predicting future. Just, like, the FaceTime element of it all. Right? That just seemed completely insane as an idea.

0

1931.579 - 1934.22 Unnamed Speaker

Which they stole from Total Recall. I think Total Recall invented that.

0

1934.24 - 1934.4 Unnamed Speaker

Probably.

0

1934.42 - 1936.141 Unnamed Speaker

Remember the FaceTime on the TV?

0

1936.241 - 1962.301 Unnamed Speaker

Yeah. Either that or the Usher You Don't Have to Call video. Yeah, they had that too. All of the technology in this stuff, like the digital communication, the idea that people would want to leave the physical realm and be completely lost somewhere else, whether they're doing their job or doing something else. And again, just like the creeping sense that this wasn't a good thing.

1962.921 - 1971.612 Unnamed Speaker

That's what I felt like the movie was saying to me. I know this stuff seems new and exciting, but the movie is very skeptical.

1971.732 - 1973.754 Unnamed Speaker

In a lot of ways, it's an art versus commerce movie.

1974.075 - 1974.315 Unnamed Speaker

Yeah.

1974.415 - 1981.823 Unnamed Speaker

In a lot of ways, it's a how do we break ground and use new technology to... Go to different frontiers.

Chapter 4: What are the most memorable scenes in 'Disclosure'?

2494.753 - 2496.094 Van Lathan

What does that have to do with anything?

0

2496.154 - 2506.702

Great rack, nipples like pencil erasers. She's attractive. Yeah, she's very attractive. You think she's sleeping with a Garvin? That's why he bought the Nordic track. You know, it's a curse to be me. Life holds no surprises.

0

2506.742 - 2507.743 Unnamed Speaker

This is such a cliché.

0

2508.407 - 2511.411

Oh, come on, Hunter. How do you think a cliché becomes a cliché?

0

2511.851 - 2513.313 Unnamed Speaker

You mean, like, size doesn't matter?

2514.995 - 2516.476

I have such a thing for you, Hunter.

2516.797 - 2519.3 Unnamed Speaker

All right, all right. Please, can we get some work done here?

2521.109 - 2528.174 Unnamed Speaker

That's what they're doing. They're going back and forth. And Dennis Miller's like, you know, the typical guy. He's doing the wisecracking.

2528.194 - 2533.538 Unnamed Speaker

Dennis Miller is the avatar for the cool chick in the office who can... She can talk like the guys.
