Just a quick note to let you know that earlier this week I was the guest on Brad Anderson’s new podcast, ‘Right This Instant’. Brad was the co-founder and former host (and now a re-occurring guest) of The Movie Fan Cast. His new podcast is a film discussion show where he picks a film from [...]
Just a quick one to let you all know about the new release schedule for the podcasts.
