All The President's Minutes - Minute 116 with Alexei Toliopoulos and Cameron James

All the President's Minutes is a podcast where conversations about movies, journalism, politics and history meet. Each show we use the seminal and increasingly prescient 1976 film All The President's Men as a portal, to engage with the themes and the warnings of the film resonating since its release. For minute 116, I join Australia's mystery podcast "Woodstein" behind *Finding Drago* and sequel series *Finding Desperado -* Alexei Toliopoulos and Cameron James. Alexei, Cam and I discuss pushing the envelope to get people on the record, inspirations and evolution in their latest Finding Desperado series and we get a vitally important update on the status of Cam's corduroy purchase. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- *About Alexei Toliopoulos (via* *ABC* ( https://www.abc.net.au/radio/people/alexei--toliopoulos/10567764 ) *)* -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- *Alexei Toliopoulos* is a comedian, filmmaker, writer and podcaster with an unmatched knowledge of popular culture.
