Discovery and the use of AI (and self-learning programs) in a wide array of fields. Then, Dean and Phil get down to the serious business of discussing such award-hopeful movies as The Secret Agent and Jay Kelly, the comfort food that is “Spinal Tap II” and such holiday comfort viewing as National Lampoon’s Christmas Vacation and holiday specials A Charlie Brown Christmas and A Very Murray Christmas.Chillpak Hollywood Presents ... is a listener-supported publication.
