Tick-tock, tick-tock. With all the holidays' hoopla, it took us a while to get to it, but here it is. Yaminah McKessesy joined me to discuss this groundbreaking new show on HBO. At the time of recording, the 9th and final episode had not aired yet. However, we managed to squeeze an addendum to part two several weeks afterward. We had a pretty lively conversation in which we also talked about nosta...

In our conclusion to our conversation, other things came up as well, like sequels and preque...

The year was 1999. My high school diploma was almost at hand and, at the time, I had no idea what bullet time was... until I saw The Matrix. Now, 20 years later, I was able to dig through my memory of what it was to live through this moment in film history, with a little help from my friend, filmmaker Jerry White. In this episode, Jerry tells us about his film festival Vidlings and Tapeheads, now...

Oscar season is getting close, and what better way to start the New Year 2019 than with a discussion about a movie that is getting a lot of awards attention.

We touched upon her past projects, as well as what's in store for her in the future and her Portraits Special which you can l...
