Episode 235: 1995 - Year In Review (feat. Collin Souter & Erik Childress)
The episode you've all been waiting for. Way more edited than other episodes; lots of clips, trailers, songs and laughs! Thank you Collin & Erik for this wonderful yearly tradition that I truly enjoy.
What's Happening?!
A lot as usual - here's a summation of things to look forward to, things I've recently accomplished and surprise, surprise, lists!
Episode 234: Nick Digilio (Celebrating 40 Years As A Film Critic)
In addition to celebrating the film critic responsible for my cinephilia, we also discuss a director that Nick has always said was underrated: Kevin Reynolds (Waterworld, 187, Fandango). Such a blast!
Dr. Strangelove or: How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb (1964) (dir. Stanley Kubrick)
It's been hard to write about fiction lately. I wonder why? Well, there's another movie besides Idiocracy that seems to indicate where we're headed. No surprise, it's another Kubrick masterpiece.
Johnny Guitar (1954) (dir. Nicholas Ray)
I know I just wrote about Nicholas Ray's last film too, but I've watched this twice in one week in preparation for a new podcast about Westerns and I couldn't help but make this the next entry.
New Reviews + Short Film Premiere!
Hey all, in addition to three new reviews of Presence, Companion & Brave the Dark, here's the link for my film that you can all view on Saturday night / Sunday morning!
Announcing My Very First Short Film Premiere Coming Saturday, February 1st!
It's weird, experimental and four minutes long. Read all about it here!
We Can't Go Home Again (1973) (dir. Nicholas Ray)
Final film from one of my favorite directors is as unhinged as it gets. It is not a film, in the ordinary sense of the word. More like lives flashing before your eyes, including the director's own.
Episode 233: Elaine May (feat. Sharon Gissy)
My fiancée, Sharon Gissy, joins me for our yearly podcast together and this time, it's all about the legendary comedic genius, Elaine May whom we both adore.
Mulholland Drive (2001) (dir. David Lynch)
This is the film. It is my favorite of all time. Thank you David Lynch for making it.
"Let Down" - Radiohead
Time to get back to writing about film and music regularly here in 2025. There are reasons why this song hits home now more than ever especially after election day.
Top 25 Films of 2024

Episode 232: Favorite Films of 2024 (feat. Bill Ackerman)
Bill Ackerman returns for a yearly tradition to talk about 25 favorites of 2024!
sometimes, i think about dying (2019) (dir. Stefanie Abel Horowitz)
10 years ago in 2014, I said to myself, "I have to die." But didn't. 24 years before that, I actually tried to die. October of 2024, I finally went and reached out for help. Maybe it's time to live.

A year-end wrap-up including the most downloaded episodes, a preview of what's to come in 2025 including a format change (going back to the old one) and more!
Episode 231: Jackie Chan (feat. Sam Inglis & Gabe Powers)
The legendary Hong Kong action star is not only one of our more notable screen actors but this time we focus on his incredible work as a director as well with a lot of help from two experts!
