A listener's question about the role of masculinity in the thriller and much of the media I tend to cover lead to this episode. As part of the question I also cover permissiveness around misogyny in the genre film community and review the much-maligned Odette Springer documentary Some Nudity Required in some depth.   Sponsor: subnormality.ca twitter: twitter.com/comeinallunits facebook: facebook.c...
