Jeff’s been engaged for over a month, and is suffused with bonhomie and goodwill, while the normally sanguine Gabe is ENRAGED! At eBay sellers who say “make an offer,” but don’t actually want one; at overpriced camera straps and thumb drives — he’s seething! Next, the boys note some stereotypically male behavior from “Chad” GPT, discuss the financial state of our beloved Kodak, examine the controversy over Nick Ut’s “Terror of War” photo, and take a swan dive into an exceptionally Prodigious Mailbag. Finally: will Debbie Gibson record a vocal version of our theme song for the upcoming (and final?) 100th episode, or is that Only In My Dreams? Shake Your Love and find out! * Gabe traveled to Lake Muskoka north of Toronto and shot no film * Jeff asked ChatGPT to compare the Closter Princess Junior with the Galileo Condor II, and it claimed they were bikes! We now dub the app “Chad GPT,” because he’s a man who'll never say “I Don't Know”! * is Kodak in trouble? Calm down! * we discuss the emergent controversy over the authorship of Nick Ut’s “Terror of War” photo, as recounted in the new documentary The Stringer - for example, even AP admits the negative was not shot with Ut's preferred Leica M2, but a cheap Pentax, and our trusty dusty camera repair guy confirms this * Gabe rails at eBay sellers who say “make offer” but don't want an offer * also, when is the asking price too high? for straps, thumb drives, Alpa strap lugs...? * Jeff openly derides absurd packfilm prices * Gabe rhapsodizes about OC Camera in Laguna Hills * we both love Sissi Lu's recent photo shoot with her mom * our trusty dusty camera repair guy replaced the focusing screen in Gabe’s Rolleiflex 2.8E, and the results are glorious * the Prodigious Mailbag™ includes an unexpected eyewitness update on Jeff's Alpa 10s half-cookie * Gabe will be at the LA Camera Expo this Sunday, August 17th * our designer (and award-winning photographer) Keith Greenstein is back on Instagram * check out The Darkroom Rumour, The Darkroom’s amazing new streaming site for photo documentaries * and let's get Debbie Gibson to record a vocal version of our theme song with composer Fred Coury for the 100th episode!
