S4E20: Topkapi

A round half a year ago, when our transition from Eurospy to Heist was written in stone, many of our beautiful listeners told us that a perfect film to smooth that boundary would be the 1964 euroheist caper Topkapi. And on this occasion we really need to hand it to you. You were spot on.

This has everything we love: montages of ordinary civilians who 100% did not consent to being filmed; a team with a profoundly polycular bent; and of course, guys we've seen before.

FREE PALESTINE

Hey, Devon here. In our home, we talk a lot about how insane everything feels, and agonise constantly over what can be done to best help the Palestinians trapped in Gaza facing the full brunt of genocidal violence. My partner Rebecca has put together a list of four fundraisers you can contribute to- all of them are at work on the ground doing what they can.

-Palestinian Communist Youth Union, which is doing a food and water effort, and is part of the official communist party of Palestine

-Water is Life, a water distribution project in North Gaza affiliated with an Indigenous American organization and the Freedom Flotilla

-Vegetable Distribution Fund, which secured and delivers fresh veg, affiliated with Freedom Flotilla also
