But first, Caleb is fresh from the with thoughts on three new queer short films (Gender Reveal, Anyway, j'pisse assis,...

The good, the bad, and the ugly of needle drops
Alternate Ending
This week's episode of the podcast is music to our ears, as Brennan is joined by Brian Fowler, Cameron Shaw, and Zev Burrows to talk about the evergreen subject of song cues in movies - when it works, when it doesn't, when it works so well that it basically kills off your ability to listen to a song ever again without a movie scene cuing itself up in your mind's eye. Before spinning those platters, the movie roundtable has a plethora of new releases, with Brian begrudgingly making it out to Karate Kid: Legends, Cameron muscling through all three hours of Mission: Impossible - The Final...
