Where the Long Tail Ends
Sometimes we make a mistake and pick a movie that's not really a science fiction film, even if it does have an obvious influence on Afrofuturism. And sometimes it works out to be an interesting discussion, as Nat, Cody, and Robert get our chance to take in Djibril Diop Mambéty's TOUKI BOUKI. And after that, we discuss 2024's year in film.

info_outlineRobert, Nat, and Cody are joined by returning guest Jim Laczkowski of Voices & Visions as we throw our ninth annual Secret Santa party. Who gave what to whom is the mystery of the episode as we take turns discussing five movies especially chosen for their recipients by their secret Santas.
This episode is apparently sponsored by TUBI as several films can be found there. The films this year include MADAM SATAN (1930), TO SLEEP WITH ANGER (1990), DEFENDING YOUR LIFE (1991), DOGGIEWOGGIEZ! POOCHIEWOOCHIEZ! (2012), and SPRING (2015).
Plenty of fun is had. Some big swings are taken. Listen to hear if they pay off. Play along and see if you can guess who gave what to whom.
