We are officially 100 episodes old. This may not seem like a big deal in the grand scope of media, but for weekly or semi-weekly podcasts this is something of a milestone. For this episode Kevin and I forgo our normal format and instead have a virtual sit-down with two long time web-masters of Asian cinema Kenneth Brorsson (http://podcastonfire.com/) and Ross Chen (http://lovehkfilm.com/). We pick their brain on everything from Asian cinema to the recent Oscars.

For our Valentine's Day show, we were very fortunate to have an opportunity to chat with the Valentines. J and Renee have a weekly show ( http://valentinecast.com/ ) of their own and we pick their brains (and their hearts) to find out their thoughts on movies, podcasting, and the future of watching films. Then Kevin and I get on to our discussion of the latest Hong Kong releases with ROMANCING IN THIN AIR [高海拔之戀II] and George Clooney's THE IDES OF MARCH.
