  • NAHIR OTAÑO GRACIA, Medievalist and scholar who joined us for a conversation about the Netflix series VIKINGS VALHALLA;

  • PEARL MACKIE who appears in the PBS MASTERPIECE series’s reimagining of British author Henry Fielding’s 18th century comic novel, TOM JONES;

  • JULIAN LEDFORD, a french literature and language professor who shared his thoughts on the film CHEVALIER and the real-life composer Joseph Bologne the Chevalier de Saint George;

  • GAYLE WALD, English professor and biographer of Sister Rosetta Tharpe, one of the rock and roll trailblazers of the 20th century depicted in the biopic ELVIS;

  • and JOHN VALADEZ, a Peabody Award-winning filmmaker whose 2007 documentary THE  HEAD OF JOAQUIN MURIETA just happens to be the same title and topic of the 2023 western drama series on Amazon Prime about the legendary Mexican outlaw Joaquin Murieta.
