“Desperately Seeking Susan. Keep the faith. Tuesday, 10 AM. Battery Park, Gangway 1. Love, Jim"

This week, we’re living vicariously through the want ads while discussing Josh’s blind buy pick, Desperately Seeking Susan! We discuss our thoughts on the movie’s screwball antics, unpack Madonna’s acting career, and have some laughs courtesy of the movie’s most hilarious moments. At the top of the hour, we discuss what we’ve been watching lately before getting into recent announcements from Criterion, BFI, Cauldron Films, and more! Plus, we answer a listener question about how we organize our physical media collections, and Jesse reveals his pick for next episode.
