Episode 81

A funny thing happened on the way to Matineecast 81: The film chosen for the feature review turned out to be something of a non-entity. Fortunately though, my guest this week is a smart cookie, and can still offer up a fun discussion, even if it seems at a glance like there might not be that much there to discuss. In a way, there is almost an audible camaraderie on display, likely originating from being on-mic together five times in the last year alone. Oh, and in case you’re wondering, the abundance of Backstreet Boys in this episode was inspired when I learned in the run-up to the episode that Mr. Roan is an unabashed fan. Sadly, I forgot to ask him to explain within the runtime of the show, but perhaps he’ll grace us with some clarity in the comment section. Here’s what’s in store in episode eighty-one… Runtime 66 minutes Up for Discussion 1. Introduction 2. KNOW YOUR ENEMY– Q& A with this week’s guest Brian J. Roan (2:57) 3.
