Podcasts – In a TIFF

Recorded on Jays Appreciation Day – and I must admit I was still feeling my feels. My voice is still a bit rough. We try not to get too excited about Star Wars. I fail. A bit of a longish tangent on the recent Federal election. Returning guest[...]

We have Matthew Price from the podcast Let’s Scare Matthew Price to Death who battles me for most buttery voice. We saw Green Room together at the festival and then he proceeded to see all the movies. This year was Matthew’s 24th attending TI[...]

Mike talks about the crowdsurfing required to exit the box of light. We all pile on and then J says that he’s probably just doing it wrong. Mel makes us earn our explicit tag this week as she bemoans the misleading loglines. Then she admits she was [...]

Our second Fest-TIFF Special podcast in which we discuss fried chicken and how air fryers are an abomination, Idris Elba can do all the things (check out his Soundcloud) and how the digital on demand world has changed the landscape for being able to[...]

In honour of the festival and I both being 40 this year I am attempting to revive the podcast with my pod partner Jai. Mostly because I am getting slow on the writing due to age (and bourbon) related reasons. This week we talk about the pre-prep pr[...]
