Every once in a while, I’ll hear an episode of one of the shows I listen to regularly – shows that feature a regular team that talk amongst themselves every episode. They have a rhythm all their own, a banter, a familiarity. When I hear that, I think about stopping my neverending conga line of guests and instead teaming up with one person permanently.

But then I get afternoons like yesterday, and it makes me think that’s just temptation speaking.

The one thing I like about the neverending conga line is the way it keeps me on my toes. It allows the show to ebb and flow, with certain episodes making certain segments longer than usual and certain segments shorter.

So besides the fact that my guest this week did a stellar job of filling in when a friend got called away, she also got me to get out of my comfort zone a bit and talk about a different slice of cinema. There’s no way I’d get that with a steady co-host.

Here’s what’s in store in episode seventy-eight…
