Joe watches too many movies. He grew up in central Washington, earned his B.A. in Education and Fine Art, an M.A. in Theology and currently works in the printing industry. During school, he fit in a few film classes. He is interested in writing, theology and hopes to one day compose the ultimate Joe Versus the Volcano commentary track.
Melissa has a B.A. in History and an M.A. in English with an emphasis on Film Studies. She has taken classes on everything from silent to romance to post-colonial films and much in between. Her research and interests lie mainly in feminist film theory, women in film, Hitchcock and the studio era. At the end of the day, however, she just loves films; from Notorious to Die Hard!

Wed, 12 March 2008 Due to the emensity of our Gilliam podcast, we are offering a smaller mp3 for download. The only difference (aside from about 40MB) is that this version is in glorious mono. Of course the stereo version is still available. Comments[266] |
Wed, 12 March 2008  In this immense, action-packed edition of WTD, we take a long look at one of our most exciting and eloquent directors (or perhaps you would prefer another "e" adjective, like "egomaniacal"). Terry Gilliam has an identifiable aesthetic and a constant thematic affection that floats through all his movies - films like Brazil, 12 Monkeys and Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas. To discuss such a weighty filmmaker, we are joined by Duke Senter from the Degree of Separation podcast and veteran of the Tarantino and Kubrick episodes. So sit back and enjoy the mammoth episode with an extra 30 minutes of discussion that the studio wanted to cut and mangle, just like they did with Baron Munchausen.(Next WTD: Mira Nair, April 1) Music by CRYPTACIZE from their album Dig That Treasure Courtesy of Asthmatic Kitty Records (Note: due to the size of this edition, an alternative "mono" edition is also available) Comments[225] |
Wed, 12 March 2008  Perhaps "sw" may be on to something - maybe there is a "Gilliam curse" - but for whatever reason, the original posting of the Gilliam Ten Quiz show left some listeners with a 9-second show. So here is another attempt at posting that, this time in classic mono.Comments[235] |
Tue, 11 March 2008  It's been quite a few years since Terry Gilliam was an animator. In fact, since then he's directed a small, but notably significant, group of films that use real actors in real(ish) situations. On this Ten Quiz program, we look at the mind and work of Mr. Gilliam as we read listener submitted comments and add our own limited insights on Brazil and Tideland.Comments[363] |
