What movies do you like better then Terminator 2? Why is T2 so damn likeable? Or is it? How do you value comfort movies? And have you seen anything really interesting recently? Each episode a different guest discusses a small series of movies with a theme or a topic they’re passionate about and then we ask them: “but are these movies better then Terminator 2?” It’s stupid, but on purpose.

    T2 vs The Old NYC w/ Turner Cody

    This week Anti-Folk veteran Turner Cody is my guest and we're meditating on the New York of the past. Plus: the couch surfing years, sweet car chase sequences, "New York Post New York" and good ol' David Foster Wallace's T2 take. Turner Cody is one of my absolute favorite singer/songwriters working right now and I'm ecstatic to have him on the show. His new album, along with The Soldiers of Love, is called "Friends In High Places" and comes out this June. If you've never sat down with his discography before what are you even doing?

    This week: Film critic for The Baffler and author of The Earth Dies Streaming: Film Writing, 2002-2018, A. S. Hamrah joins me to talk about his book as well as films that tackle quagmires, enduring this last year and by the end we begin to explore if a film critic played a role in American music history. A.S. Hamrah is one of the most important voices in film criticism today and the subjects we're tackling are things that have been weighing on my mind heavily this past year.
