Peep This Noise is a podcast centered on critical analysis of media of all kinds. We’ll be aiming for an open minded, approachable discussion of a variety of topics in literature, film, music, theatre, games, and other forms of art. As we cover various pieces, we examine things like:
Representation of ethnicity, belief, and gender in media;
Framing and representation of disability in art;
How writers explore and portray physical and emotional trauma;
How various genres, including science fiction and fantasy, provide metaphors for and potential solutions to modern society’s most troubling problems, such as violence, hate, and socioeconomic/environmental crises;
Perspectives for critical analysis, including (but not limited to) feminist, queer studies, and Marxist reads of media.

After an upload error delayed the release of this episode by four days, we decided to just save it for this week. Hopefully, though, that gave you time to read through Hemingway's Nobel Prize-winning classic The Old Man and the Sea. Inspired by the Hemingway's time spent in Cuba, this story details the battle between an experienced fisherman and the catch of a lifetime.
In this episode, we talk about the story's themes, Hemingway's life, and the nature of the Old Man's relationship to the sea. We reflect on the overall meaning of the story, and we talk about the role of "The Great DiMaggio".
Hope you enjoy!
