INCREMENT VICE - EPISODE #29: “...motto panukeiku...” with Matt Zoller Seitz

Well, mornin, Sam. It’s finally here, it’s final time—we’re gonna sit down with that hippie-hating mad dog himself, Christian F. “Bigfoot” Bjornsen and have ourselves motto panukeiku.  

And sure it’s something to laugh at, Bigfoot chowing down on pancakes with the same ravenous intensity that he deep throats a chocolate covered frozen banana or a platter full of Doc’s best Asian Indica, but at the same time, this is mourning all right, and it is deep. Bigfoot’s air of possessed melancholy—where does it come from? What’s been lost? If the term “inherent vice” refers to all that is lost irrevocably due to time, what’s the shape of the hole in Bigfoot’s heart…?

…or maybe it’s his stomach?
