On this week’s brand new installment, friend of the show and great music journalist Yoshi Kato joins Phil to celebrate the life and legacy of the brilliant composer, musician and actor Ryuichi Sakamoto, who died at the age of 71. Then, Phil and Dean welcome back Eric Mark, who gives a full report on this year’s Sundance Film Festival, regales with stories of performing on “the game show circuit”, and tells all about the popular sci-fi podcast he co-produces and acts in, “Broken Road”.

 

Today on the show, Dean and Phil discuss “There Will Be Blood” in detail (without giving away the ending, of course). Phil reveals what his guilty cinematic pleasure is (Six times, Phil? That’s a lot!). Phil’s most controversial comment ever uttered on these airwaves (or, uh, cyberwaves? Podwaves?). Dean and Phil prep for their Best of 2007 show.
