Greetings, patrons!  This week, we’re covering the 2023 Whistler Films Festival, one of the most interesting festivals in the Pacific Northwest because it so often features great Canadian content.   We’re covering our usual two films, both playing as part of the fest.  First up is the new Canadian relationship drama The Burning Season and then Todd Haynes’ new Natalie Portman & Julianne Moore starring drama May December.  

Bonus Content

This week’s bonus episode for Patreon supporters has us discussing formative experiences with video gaming, and as Warner Brothers continues their campaign of destroying their own reputation by deleting content, we talk about content we own digitally and which we’d be saddest to lose. All patrons get access, and support starts at just CAD $2 per month!
