    This week jarrett and Tre’vell bring back FANTI veteran, Dr. Charles H.F. Davis III to discuss prison abolition, the beginnings of its movement and specifically how it differs from the idea of prison reform. They also discuss how proactivity in the prevention of crime is more beneficial than punishment after the fact. And later, our hosts get a visit from FANTI friend, Shar Jossell.

    David Bruckner on 'Broadcast News'

    David Bruckner on 'Broadcast News'

    Today, director David Bruckner talks with Jordan about feeling seen by Holly Hunter's character, Jane Craig, in the 1987 classic, BROADCAST NEWS. Directed by James L. Brooks, it's a journalism....satire? rom-com? dramedy?... starring Hunter, Albert Brooks, and William Hurt. It's one of those movies that is so prescient about what news media would become. And for David Bruckner -- whose latest film is this year's HELLRAISER -- saw in it some parallels with what it feels like to be a creator in any medium. 

    Then, Jordan has one quick thing about the new trailer for 65.

    Elliott Kalan on 'Taxi Driver'

    Elliott Kalan on 'Taxi Driver'

    Writer (The Daily Show with Jon Stewart, Mystery Science Theater 3000, Maniac of New York) and co-host of the The Flop House Elliott Kalan has loved film and New York City almost all his life. While cinema has offered him no shortage of characters to relate to, there was one character that Elliott related to as a teenager that, for him, represents the very things he is most happy to have grown beyond. And that’s how we’ve come to discuss Martin Scorsese's dark 1976 classic, Taxi Driver.

    Plus, a unique One Quick Thing about another DeNiro picture (sorta), Joker.

    We decided to change things up and try something new...ish for this upcoming episode. For our semi-regularly newest “format”, we will be discussing films that we both know and both love deeply.

    And what better film to start with than the 1976 Scorsese masterpiece, Taxi Driver?

    Learn our true feelings, our introductions (the full one for Trevor’s scarring intro to the movie) and our overall ratings for what many consider to be one of the greatest films ever made.

    Connor & Jon dive into the big blue with Michael Kelley to discuss the aquatic cinematic masterpiece: Finding Nemo. Of course there is a fair amount of discussion on the state of animation, Michael tells how the film affected his relationship with his family, Connor just wants to talk about the score, and Jon can't remember all of Dory's misremembered names for Nemo.

    Sheetal Sheth And A Real South Asian Hero

    Sheetal Sheth And A Real South Asian Hero

    When it comes to South Asian representation in the media, Sheetal Sheth has had a few conversations the past 20 years on the issue.  Author, actress, producer and activist Sheetal Sheth has been a trailblazer for women of color across media with 20 feature film roles and many TV show appearances throughout her compelling career. Sheetal’s story is a beautiful amalgam of strength, perseverance, grit and heart.  On a side note, she can also bust out with some ghetto Gujarati (Indian language from state of Gujarat, India) when needed.
