Show Notes
EMMA K is the host of the Reformed Rakes podcast, and this was a hoot!! She is incredibly smart. I was dying laughing listening back to the episode of her saying something very smart for 20 minutes and then me being like "heh". Super duper fun!! Also very good movies. I'm being serious out there ladies if you like Timothy Spall in this. I got plenty of those guys for you to pick from.

RIO PODDO continues with the second of the CORE WESTERNS, which is, of course, John Ford's landmark 1939 film Stagecoach. Really happy to have discussed this one! We talk a lot about it + Ford's outsize influence on the Western genre. Follow Michael here:
Was so fun to talk with ODETTE ALDRICH, who made an absolutely INCREDIBLE movie that is hopefully playing near you ASAP. Really excited for people to see this one, I loved it! It is playing at LES CAVES ST SABIN in Paris, France on October 16th at 2300 local time, I am so jealous I don't get to go to a medieval night club and see this. One day though!! Follow the movie and stuff here:
DADS GOING CRAZY! This was a fun episode, apologies as always for talking WAY too much because when listening back I was like "DANG I wanted to hear from Tiff more!". She really is excellent and has great writing + videos, follow her her:
RIO PODDO is a new series with me and Michael aka Sharkeyflor in which we're gonna go through WESTERNS. Think of it as like a lil miniseries on a specific subgenre. Planning on doing more of these, let us know what you think! Follow Michael here:
