Cut to Reveal Ricky & Piotr

In this episode of CTR Erwann Kerroc’h joins Piotr and Ricky on the podcast! He is welcomed with open arms and they discuss a few projects Erwann is working on and the CNC. Piotr wants to know what the Cannes film festival means to someone from France…and from America and how every movie played gets a minutes long standing ovation. Ricky brings up the crazy drama behind the scenes of the move Chinatown, wading the episode out into the dark deep end discussing actors and directors behaving (very) badly.  The conversation then wanders into thoughts on reality TV and how Ricky surrounded the Real-World house in Chicago along with a 100 other punk kids. Piotr and Ricky recount last weekends 10K and disc golf tournament and they all discuss their watch lists from the week: Ricky - Fallout (tv), Erwann - Punch Drunk Love & Boy Kills World, Piotr - Molly’s Game.  There’s probably more things mentioned in the episode but you’ll have to listen to find out!

Plus Ricky gushes about "The New Look," a limited AppleTV series from the mind of Todd A. Kessler, about the rise of fashion designer Christian Dior & fall of Coco Chanel during and after WW2.
