- Filme e TV
As they wait for dinner, Sara, Edwin, and Jonas talk through things they’ve watched, played, or listened to that made them feel some sort of way.
Each episode finds the team diving into a work, pointing out the little details, and trying to line up their readings. Pull up a chair and no, it’s not a show about food.
