In a whirlwind episode, Pete dives into the world of entertainment, starting with a playful exploration of favorite coaches, both fictional and real, like Ted Lasso and Herb Brooks. Pivoting to the cinematic realm, Jim Healy from UW Cinematheque shares insights into upcoming film screenings and the buzz around the Wisconsin Film Festival, while lamenting the lukewarm reception of James L. Brooks' latest film.
