  • Just a live record

    Not really a podcast. Just a replay of a live event. So many cop outs these days that call themselves podcasts. Fail.

  • Billy Bob Thornton’s interview

    Excellent, Stacey. I will be forwarding this on to the actors and directors I’ve met in Seattle in the past 3 years. I had to take notes!

    BBT achieved for me what he wanted. I was encouraged.

    One suggestion. Don’t be afraid to repeat the name of the films you are discussing. I had to keep rewinding to hear what part or film was being discussed.
