Episode 342 – PRESENCE

Runtime 61 minutes Show Contents 0:00 Introduction with guest Andrew James 3:35 The New Slang: PRESENCE 36:25 Spoiler Section 45:21 The Other Side: Andrew and Ryan talk further reading after Steven Soderbergh’s new film Thoughts from your host… Greetings from Hoth! After what had generally been a very clear and mild winter, my fair city was absolutely blanketed in snow this weekend, with around seven inches having fallen between Friday and now! It’s left my normally-bustling neighbourhood hushed and barren. It’s made it so that any glance out the window requires a squint. And it has left a lot of us seeking refuge in the warmth of our homes. Appropriately enough – as I mention in the intro of the episode – it’s Family Day in Canada today, and the weather has kept many of us entrenched in-place with our families. So with a holiday to enjoy and shovelling to do, we keep things quick this week…a one hour affair, which is unusual considering how much my guest and I usually talk! Pour the coffee, pull on the wool socks, get cozy and join us.
