Description

In our first episode featuring a guest, Michael Hudson joined us to start a conversation about the intersectionality of film production, marketing and manufactured controversy. We break down societal rot, post-industrial despair and the differences between forms of isolation in regional New Zealand and Australia. Hayden gives a spiel of 17th century novel, Don Quixote, Damon smashes brains with his recount of Jada-Pinkett Smith's entanglement and Michael drops hints as to the whereabouts of his second-wave-proof hideout in regional Queensland.
