Ah yes, another episode where I should have been recording a chat over a beer in Southeast Asia with my mother.
As we all know, my great sojourn to Vietnam, Cambodia, and Thailand didn't come to pass. Now I’ve found myself hustling for engaging fodder for the pod. Without any ability to book a last minute guest, or the chance to chat with my Mom as planned, I called an audible and ran through a deep dive of my recent list of favorite films by the letter.
I kick things off with an intro and update in the usual fashion and then wind my way through the list. It’s a fun exercise and an enjoyable listen, I think.
I’ll be back next week with a regularly scheduled episode. As always, thanks so much for being here and for your support.
Cheers,

WAIM #036 - Renee Hall
Listen now (80 mins) | Renee Hall is a survivor. I hate that I have to introduce her that way, but it is an irrefutable fact. Within the last fifteen years, Renee has seen her mother die of breast cancer, only to turn around and nearly lose her own life in that same struggle. Motherhood came to Renee late in life and as something of a surprise. Of course, she fell in love wit…
