Hosted by Blake Howard & Jen Johans of One Heat Minute Productions & Watch With Jen, respectively, each week, we’ll explore the film we first bonded over when we became friends in 2019 by surfing through an incredible roster of guests from journalists to novelists & beyond who love it as much as we do.

In episode seven, we discuss complete unfamiliarity with the brilliance of Grodin’s talk show persona on Carson, the alchemy of De Niro and Grodin, some of the great Yaphet Kotto Alien stories and so much more.
