    Pods Against Tomorrow reinvestigates the noir genre one film at a time. Join our hosts, Hugh Manon and Abe Doubleday-Bush, along with a rotating guest — our "Ace in the Hole" — as they delve into an analysis of classic, neo-, and pastiche film noirs. Each episode explores the timeless themes that shaped the film noir genre and changed American pop culture forever.

    This week's Ace in the Hole is Max Hooley, a Clark graduate in Psychology and Screen Studies, and holder of a JD from New England Law in Boston. He joins us to discuss how America’s most paranoid presidency mirrored the shadowy moral ambiguity of the genre in Oliver Stone's NIXON (1995).
