The Finale

Hi everyone, Josh here. As you can see since you tapped or clicked on this episode, this is the finale of Film Explorers, a show that the four of us have spent years of our life working on. In this episode, we go back to the very beginning of cinema history and our own with A TRIP TO THE MOON. We then go long talking about our favorite episodes and moments together, our love of what we created together, and what the future holds. I think I can speak for all four of us in saying that we are incredibly proud that we had the opportunity to put something out onto the Internet, as rough and stupid as it often was. And we’re proud that every week, someone decided to press play. It means a lot that anyone ever decided to take time out of their day to listen to even a minute of our voices, and we will always be unbelievably appreciative of those who did that more often. You can still follow us all on Letterboxd, feel free to reach out to each of us. Below are the links: Jackson Joey Josh Sutherland And with that I leave with you our final episode. It’s a complete mess that I refuse to edit down so that you can witness the raw emotional state that this recording put us in. This one’s incredibly special. We will miss you all dearly as we continue into the unknown.
