Who qualifies as a guest? No guest is too small, no guest is too big, and every guest is a designer in some way shape or form. If designer is in the guest’s title and they are—or were—a designer, they qualify. Above all, every single guest is phenomenal.

How do you record each show? Video call, Zoom or Google Meet. Video helps each person see who’s speaking, but we only use audio for the show.

Do you post videos to watch the interviews? No.

You’re not on YouTube Music & Podcasts? We just aren’t. Next question.

Where can we listen? Amazon, Apple, Spotify, and you can listen here on the site too.

How can guests get suggested? Nominate yourself! Suggest a guest! Use this thing!

Who chooses each movie? Each guest chooses, because each guest makes the show possible.

Do you, Jason, watch every movie that your guest brings to the show? Yes.

What kinds of movies get discussed? Any movie, any year, any genre, whether released in a theater, available via streaming or DVD or VHS or whatever, or even a “television movie” like Prey, which by the way received 6 Emmy® Nominations, including Outstanding Television Movie.

What movies are coming soon? See our Letterboxd.

Why another podcast? Seriously, and don’t just say, “Why not.” In 2007, my friends and I had a short-lived blog about enjoying movies, making movies, and the history of movies called Film Observers.

• We wrote down our thoughts, self-published them, and got some advanced screenings.

• Why not talk about movies? Maybe we’d get even more advanced screenings if we had a show? If the idea of getting (even more) free movie tickets sounds greedy, too bad.

I briefly considered an interview-style podcast with each season’s guests coming from a particular milieu or profession. Although the blog shut down and the podcast research sat dormant in multiple file folders on my computer, I knew one day I’d come back to it. Here we are. Hope you enjoy.

Do you have any merchandise? I’m so glad you asked because it’s being developed as I type this. We do not have anything yet but honestly we have some things in the works. Considering how it took me almost 17 years to get this podcast up, hopefully I’ll get the merch moving and online ASAP.

What’s with all the italics above? Not even true italics but tagged as emphasis? Stop being such a designer. Go watch a movie. Better yet, listen to one of our episodes, or subscribe to the show on Apple, Spotify, or Amazon.
