Writer and podcaster Molly Lambert joins Megan and Rob to discuss Futureworld (1976) and Conspiracy: The Royal Family!

Do public figures have robot doubles? Is Circus Circus secretly owned by a shadowy corporation named Delos? Just how far did the royal family go when it came to Princess Diana? And finally, is the sushi at Disney World any good?

We'll be back in English on December 18th!

Writer and culture critic Fran Hoepfner (Bright Wall/Dark Room) joins Megan and Rob to discuss Christopher McQuarrie’s Mission: Impossible — Fallout (2018) and Elizabeth Chai Vasarhelyi & Jimmy Chin’s Free Solo (2018).

Is Tom Cruise more of a high five or fist bump kind of guy? Why do we keep forgetting the name of Motherless Brooklyn? Is Alex Honnold a good cook? Does Big Chicago get mentioned in the episode? Why did we edit out a conversation about Pauline Chalamet? All of this and more!

No guests, no rules. 2 narrative films, 2 documentary films, all coincidentally released within the last 5 years!

Rob chose the Zac Efron-starring DJ drama We Are Your Friends (Max Joseph, 2015) and Elvira Lind's 2017 documentary Bobbi Jene.

Megan chose the mockdoc Popstar: Never Stop Never Stopping (Akiva Schaffer & Jorma Taccone, 2016) and Garrett Bradley's 2020 documentary Time.

Is Bobbi Jene Smith's struggle for creative control a metaphor for the simultaneous creativity and restriction we are all feeling in this pandemic? Do Megan and Rob know what EDM stands for? How many times will Megan bring up grinding?

Parisian musician and film buff Guillaume Mathieu joins Megan Hattie and Rob Patrick to discuss Werner Herzog's Land of Silence and Darkness (1971) and Richard Curson Smith's BBC telefilm Home (2003)!

How much will Megan and Rob haze Guillaume?  Who will get closest to doing a Herzog impression? If you're playing a no-nonsense cable guy, are you obligated to ham it up?
