In the midst of a global pandemic and stay at home orders all over the country, I am coping by watching movies and podcasting about them as if they were part of a Film Festival. Here is my coverage of cOVid-19 Film Festival day 6: Programmed by Mike White. For the spotlight review, Mike calls in to talk about Freaks with me in a mostly non-spoiler review.
This week’s stinger comes from our Patreon-exclusive Vlog: COVID-19: Vlog 2 - TV Shows in Quarantine & I Can't Grow a Beard - March 30, 2020
