S2 E12: Spiritual Motorcycle

“In Japan there is a phrase, owari no bigaku, which means beautiful end” -Kimiko Kasai. For the past 3 years, we have had such fun reporting back on the wild world of cinematic hidden gems. In our final episode, we recount some of the most notable head-scratchers from previous episodes and break down the most on-brand [Storybored-esque?] movies we’ve watched recently. We recap some of our favorite original pitches from the past and give you one last stellar pitch for the ages. And we send you home with one last Radar Round-up of must-watches and must-avoids. To all our beloved Loose Dudes out there, we had a blast and we hope you find a Ratboy of your very own.
