At the end of 2024, Alexei was joined at The Last Video Store by podcaster, journalist and commentator Josh Szeps. However, we though we lost it soon after. The video remains a mystery but we recovered the audio, and it was such a great chat we had to release it to the world! Josh is a true film lover, and you can listen to his podcast Uncomfortable Conversations on YouTube and wherever you get your podcasts. Sorry about the wait, Josh!

Alexei makes a cameo on the new season of the tremendous popular culture investigation podcast GOING ROGUE.

Follow GOING ROGUE on SPOTIFY (https://open.spotify.com/show/2ktZYfjxF5PwG44UC0HPvK) or APPLE (https://podcasts.apple.com/au/podcast/going-rogue/id1636196453)

A podcast about the film industry that looks at both the films, and the industry. The show covers the writing, shooting, editing and reshooting of troubled films and tries to not only find out what happened, but why, sometimes in a single episode, sometimes over an entire season. Hosted by film writer Tansy Gardam, Going Rogue is all about the context and complications of making movies, and the often wild reasons that films are... like that.
