We were excited to have director Azazel Jacobs back on the show to talk about his powerful new film, His Three Daughters. The film follows three estranged sisters as they care for their dying father while trying to find a way to reconnect. Azazel shares how caregiving for his parents inspired him to write this story, his deep respect for hospice workers, the impact of his decision to shoot on film, and the incredible score by composer Rodrigo Amarante.

Welcome to Flashback Friday! This week we're returning to the Sundance 2024 Film Festival, to one of our favorite documentaries that is showing in a theater near you!
Look Into My Eyes is an intimate look at a group of psychics in New York and their clients. Director (and return guest) Lana Wilson shares how she found clients willing to be on camera, the importance of witnessing someone, and the 20 minute lizard story that she struggled to cut down for time.

Welcome to Flashback Friday! We're bringing back a documentary that we covered this past January at Sundance 2024, and is in theaters now!
Seeking Mavis Beacon is a documentary that follows the investigation into what happened to one of the most influential Black women in technology who has been missing from the public eye since 1995. Director/investigator Jazmin Jones and associate producer/investigator Olivia McKayla Ross sit down with us to share how they met, how they learned to lean into the discomfort of the process, and servile fembots and marginalized bodies in the tech industry.

We’re back with a Basic Bitch and we have a lot to catch up on! From the Olympics (and a certain pole vaulting video that we may or may not be watching regularly), to Outside Lands (Grace Jones AND Chappell Roan?!?) and the Democratic National Convention (“…from the windoooows to the Walzzzz…”), these bitches needed to float on the river just to recover from all the excitement. And we cap it off with a special announcement for friend of the show Anica Wu of Bonjerk who makes the best jerky we’ve ever had. If you’re living in the SF/Bay Area, click here to find out where it’s being sold at a location near you!

We're talking about one of our favorite movies of the year with director/writer Sean Wang and actor Joan Chen! DÌDI (弟弟) follows a 13-year-old Taiwanese American boy during the last month of summer before high school begins, as he learns to skate, flirt, and love his mom. We get behind the scenes details of the first (and most intense) scene with Joan and lead actor Izaac Wang, learn why playing this role was both cathartic and redemptive for Joan, and how Sean believes the best part of filmmaking makes him a better person. Then we cap it off by celebrating both the diversity of Fremont, California (where the film is set), and the magic (and longevity) of Golfland.

This is one of our favorite movies of the year, and the interview was equally as satisfying! We sat down with director Greg Kwedar, and actors Clarence "Divine Eye" Maclin and Sean San Jose to discuss their beautiful film, Sing Sing. The film is based on the real life RTA (Rehabilitation Through the Arts) program at Sing Sing Maximum Security Prison, centered around a group of inmates involved in the theater program. They share how they created a special brotherhood behind the camera, why comedy was an important aspect to the story, their emotional in person screening at Sing Sing, and Divine Eye's surprising dream role for the future.

One of our all time favorite guests has returned, and he never disappoints! Take a listen to hear why a happy hour with Daveed Diggs is good for the soul. We dive into fatherhood, Comic Con, the new Clipping album (and behind the scenes stories from their European tour), the importance of local politics (and why he's backing Michael Tubbs for Lieutenant Governor), and doing his part to make Oakland and the Bay Area a hub for filmmaking (through Make It Bay and screenwriter salons).
You can watch Daveed on Snowpiercer Season 4, airing Sundays on AMC!

We're joined by Jeff Hunt of Storied: San Francisco to interview Sameer Gupta and Kundan Baidwan, two artists and the creative forces behind the Color Your Mind Festival happening on Saturday, July 27th, from 12-5pm at the Yerba Buena Gardens in downtown SF. This free festival is a celebration of South Asian traditional and modern arts, including music, dance, art, books, crafts, and more. We hope to see you there!
In the meantime, Kundan and Sameer share how they grew up together and bonded as creative kids in school, why they started Rootstock Arts, and how art is a major part of South Asian culture. Then we dive into what you can expect at the festival, and why it's so important for them to create platforms for other artists.
