My city was in a deep freeze this week, making it tough to brave the elements and get out of the house any more than necessary. Walking up the street to see a film took a few extra layers, and few extra doses of wherewithal…let alone driving across town to sit with friends and talk about the film. With that in-mind, I am grateful for my guest this week. He made the trek downtown to rally-up twice in the cold (once to watch the film together, once more to record)…and both times it flew in the face of the desire to hibernate during this coldest, darkest time of year. What’s more? Got a great film and a great episode out of it! New questions for the guest await, as do comments about my wardrobe, and being skeptical over what we eat. Basically, as this podcast creeps towards 200, I find myself in good company… Links from The Show: Kurt’s good scene in a bad film: Kurt’s monologue he’d like to deliver: Thanks for tuning into episode one-hundred-ninety-one.
