In today's episode, Moriah takes Stephan and MIles through the incredible making of the 2020 film Nomadland. With only a handful of crew and actors, Chloé Zhao and Frances McDormand portray the nomadic lifestyle in a very documentary-like approach. The team talks about the unorthodox process of the movie, the real Nomads featured in the movie, what they would name their vans if they lived on the roads, and how Jeff Bezos needs to be stopped (along with most of Corporate America).
