  • Hand in your Texan card bud

    In their dazed and confused episode, the host mostly talked about a completely different movie. The other preferred a movie about a “nice guy” with a note.

Ted Lasso - S4, Ep 4: "Greyhounds' Day Off" with Alex McDaniel

Journalism July: "The Paper" with Alex McDaniel
Q: What about the casting and the portrayal of journalists?

Journalism July: "The Paper" with Alex McDaniel
Q: Was this an instant love-at-first-watch for you, given your journalism background?
Alex explains that her professional perspective made the film resonate, praising its authentic newsroom energy while noting certain dramatic liberties; she found the film engaging and insightful about journalism, even if not a perfect representation.
"Journeyman" with Jeff Pearlman
Q: What stood out most about Journeyman's portrayal of boxing and its consequences?
The film's unflinching look at brain injury and its impact on marriage and family, paired with a restrained, authentic boxing presentation, makes it feel like a very real, human story rather than just a sports movie.
