We watched Ma Rainey's Black Bottom and Sound of Metal for the pod this week, in prep for the Academy Awards in a couple of weeks.

What we watched and read in the month of March 2021. As well as some other fun content.

We close out the first full year of the Podcast with a Q and A. We also revisited our first episode and talk about how the podcast has grown or stayed the same over this first full year. Check this episode out first if you're new hear, it is a great place to start. 

Despite what you may hear in the episode, this is Book Club 8. And we read Norwegian Wood by Haruki Murakami this week. With special book club guest Aubrie.

This week we watched Burning (2018, Directed by Lee Chang-Dong) as well as read the two short stories it is based on. Here is where we talk about them. Tons of fun, don't miss out.

Our wrap-up of what we read and watched in the month of February 2021. Intro is a little long this time around, the actual wrap up starts at around 17:25 if you get bored. Thanks for listening!

We return to our discussion of Persona (Ingmar Bergman, 1966) and The Florida Project (Sean Baker, 2017), this time from a new angle. Thanks for listening!

This week we are trying a new thing called Movie Reports. We each watch a movie and present it to the other person, giving thoughts, interpretations, and reactions. It turned out pretty cool. Listen to the episode to find out which movies we actually watched.

Title has no relation to Valentine's Day but rather to the book we read this week, Till We Have Faces by C.S. Lewis. Here are our thoughts on it.

We finish Park Chan-Wook's Vengeance trilogy with 2005's Sympathy for Lady Vengeance in this episode. Other topics include auteur theory and important personal milestones. If you want more of the Vengeance trilogy, check out episodes 15 and 24.
