We watched 'Citizen Vigilante' so you don't have to. But on a happier not, we also watched and discuss Boots Riley's 'I Love Boosters,' and the next installment in the Early Alts, 'Buffalo Bill and the Indians, or Sitting Bull's History Lesson.'

Our first PhD in the studio! Dr. Colin Tait joins Brock and Jason to talk about the latest Spielberg film, Disclosure Day, as well as Robert Altman's Nashville. Stick around to hear Colin link Nashville with Taxi Driver so he can wax poetic about Robert De Niro.

It's a jam-packed show, Screamers. We look at the new horror films Backrooms, and Hokum, as well as discussing horror, in general, and this new crop of directors. We discuss the A.I. controversy at this year's Tribeca Film Festival, and Martin Scorsese's place in A.I. history. We wrap up by talking about Robert Altman's 1974 under-seen gem, Thieves Like Us. Enjoy the show.

Jason sat down with writer/director Jay Pendarvis Jr. to discuss his short film, See You, Soon. See You, Soon is "an intimate, character-driven drama about grief, memory, and the weight of unfinished conversations." It's powerful, moving, and looks beautiful. Pendarvis manages to pack a whole lot into 10 minutes. We cannot wait to see what he does next. He's definitely one to watch.

It's our last day at DIFF and we try something different: Driving While Screaming...in Separate Cars. While the audio might not always be great, the conversation is. Films discussed: As We Breathe; If I Go Will They Miss Me; and Poetic License. We're already looking forward to DIFF 2027.

It's a solo rendition of Driving While Screaming. Brock had things he could not get out of; things that could not be avoided; Brock is not happy about that. But Jason is here to tell you all about day five of DIFF '26 (and some interesting non-DIFF films as well).

We were honored to sit down with Ellen Rodnianski to talk about her film, American Baby. A powerful, and beautiful movie about a pregnant 15 year old confronting isolation, double standards, and adult choices. Keep an eye out for this one.
