Studiocanal launched an official podcast, which is now up to season 4 – and the host might just be familiar to Film Stories listeners.
This is a bit of an odd story for me to write. Basically, well, because I’m in it. I’ll see how I get on.
The rather fine folks at Studiocanal launched an official podcast, digging into the huge archive of movies under its stewardship. It’s arriving regularly, and as well as focusing on a movie of the month, there’s a broader exploration of other bits and bobs too. We’re currenty up to season four…
The podcast is hosted by, er, me. Here are all the episodes to date.
You can find it in all the usual places, not least here.
Hope you like it. This ends this brief interlude where I write a story about me.
