Double Vision explores moments of synchronicity between closely released literature and film pairings. Hosted by Timothy Wilcox, Ph.D., and featuring frequent guests, each week we will explore two visions – one from each genre – and discuss moments of multiple discovery and creative distinction. Intro and outro music by York Morgan (yorkmorgan.bandcamp.com).

I first learned about this podcast through IndieThinkers.org and, having listened to the first couple episodes, I am impressed by Timothy’s erudition and thoughtful, calming demeanor. This podcast has a fun and compelling concept (looking at two different works made at the same time in history), and a sophisticated and enjoyable vibe. Highly recommended for people interested in high-brow literature and film discussion.
BRILLIANT. The pairings on this podcast are just off the charts awesome. Futurist internet philosophy, in the context of some truly great movies. One of my favorite listens.
This podcast is a great choice for anyone looking for good book and movie recommendations as well as surprising, revelatory juxtapositions.
