On the latest LGM podcast Erik and I had the extraordinary opportunity to interview John Bleasdale, author of The Magic Hours: The Films and Hidden Life of Terence Malick from the University Press of Kentucky. I heartily recommend the book, which for the most part takes a film-by-film approach to Malick’s career. We weren’t able […]

I had the opportunity to sit down yesterday with my colleagues Geoff Williams and Charles Dainoff to talk about the financial aspects of the Russia-Ukraine War.

In anticipation of tomorrow’s games we recorded a two-part podcast on the NFL playoffs. In the first half (below) we worked our way through the AFC side, ending up with two championship predictions between the three of us.

One thing we discuss in the latest ediiton of our NFL podcast (see below!) is the concerns about the rough rookie season that Caleb Williams is having. I roughly half-buy this apologia for Williams — nobody will confuse Shane Waldron with Andy Reid, the skill talent Chicago has is solid on paper but not a […]
