It seemed like the golden age of streaming would never end. Increased competition, and soaring operational costs, among other factors, have halted a trend that has been shaping the entertainment landscape for the last decade. With different platforms shifting to ad-based models and refocusing their strategy, we are now entering an era that finds other players battling the same challenges faced by linear television 20 years ago.

I'm joined by Nathalie Lethbridge, founder of Atonik Digital, to discuss what's happening in the entertainment industry and what lies ahead.

In this episode we explore the following topics:

As 2022 comes to an end, we still don't know if "Avatar: The Way of The Water" will recoup its original budget. This seemed like a great opportunity to revisit another Water-based production. A title that's synonymous with infamous and troubled productions. I'm talking about the  Kevin Costner vehicle, Waterworld. Released in the summer of 95, it was the most expensive blockbuster ever produced at the time, costing a whopping $175m. Trashed by critics and dubbed as "mad max with jet skis", the movie was deemed a box office bomb. To discuss the original version and the 3hr extended cut, I'm joined by Segundo Take's host  Antonio Araujo.

Have you ever wondered what it's like to work at a record store? In this episode, I'll be talking to Kate Siamro from Spinster Records, located in Dallas, TX. We'll cover the good, the bad, and the ugly of working in a record store, how Generation Z is redefining music purchasing, the best spots in Dallas, and a whole lot about music.

I've also volunteered for an exclusive "episode" of Kate's very own reel show: "What I can judge about your date from the records they purchase".

There's nothing quite like enjoying the very best popcorn cinema has to offer on a hot summer day. And if audiences around the world have been able to enjoy this simple pleasure they have a Mr. Steven Spielberg and his movie "Jaws" to thank. 

Much has been said and written about the 1975 summer blockbuster. However, I feel that there's not enough love and attention whenever the three sequels are mentioned.

In this episode, I'm joined by Rob Lane, from straight2vid, as we both aim to shine some light on the glorious cinematic experiences that are the "Jaws"' sequels and also how could they have been improved and reached new peaks in movie excellence.
