Caged, from director Brad Rea, is unlike anything we've shown before. It's a VERY intense family drama that follows an MMA fighter attempting to escape the shadow of his abusive father. It's an incredibly well-done, powerful, and worth your time. Brad sat down with me before we screened his film to talk about his journey as a filmmaker.

Librarian Jonathan Jeffrey will discuss how the 1918 Spanish Influenza became an epidemic in Kentucky.

Jonathan Jeffrey, is the Department Head for the Department of Library Special Collections and the Manuscripts & Folklife Archives Coordinator at Western Kentucky University. He is responsible for managing the department and for acquiring, accessioning, cataloging, and providing reference services for unique manuscript items as well as folklore collections. The collection numbers over one million pages within approximately 4,500 manuscript collections as well as 4,000 audio recordings.

Ryan McCurdy, an Unscripted all-star, drops by to discuss his latest effort, Misread. Lots of other stuff, too!

Note: We had an issue with our digital recorder, so, unfortunately, the audio quality for this one isn't great. It definitely is more listenable than the ones we recorded on a phone, though. Please overlook the room noise.
