Ep. 26: “What Movie Am I In?!?” Our Brave New World of Outbreaks and De-Extinction
Waiting to X-hale - A podcast by Karen Tongson and Wynter Mitchell-Rohrbaugh
Like everyone else in the world, Wynter and Karen are preparing for a possible Coronavirus quarantine. What social distancing and stockpiling techniques have they been practicing to avoid “the ‘roni?” With the world as eerie and uncanny as it is in the age of late capitalism, both are feeling a little like they’re actually living in disaster films like Contagion, Outbreak, Cloverfield, Idiocracy and even...Jurassic Park (!) Plus, a longer than usual nuo-lingo chat about “Periodt” and when slang veers in and out of cultural appropriation.
