Punto di Vista, tutte le novità Serie & Tv di Maggio - Prima della pausa!
Con l’arrivo dell’estate e l’inizio delle repliche televisive, anche “Punto di Vista”, il podcast condotto da Mary con Vincent in regia, saluta il suo pubblico prima della pausa, con una puntata densa di novità, riflessioni e musica.🟣 Il senso della TV, tra pausa e riflessioneCome da tradizione, la trasmissione si ferma a ridosso dell’estate, quando il palinsesto televisivo rallenta e si popola di repliche. La sigla di apertura, "Televisione" di Jovanotti, offre lo spunto per una riflessione critica sul ruolo della TV nell'isolamento sociale e nella passività del pubblico.🎾 Sport: applausi per Verstappen e SinnerUno sgua...

Rye Old Fashioned
In another first this week, Elena chats with two guests, friends Erik and Zach. Of all the episodes so far, this one most closely resembles a typical bar conversation, touching on everything from work life, dating life, swapping of virginity stories, but also delves into one of life's most important lessons (and one that is arguably the overall theme of the episode): the power and necessity of authenticity.

Makers Mark, neat
In a first-time for the pod, Elena chats with someone she's never met before, and who doesn't work in the service industry: Ukrainian writer, producer, director, filmmaker, and overall fearless woman, Mariya Somova. They discuss Mariya's newest project, "I Want To Live on Mars", a coming-of-age film based in Centralia (current population: FREAKING NINE), in which "a group of friends embark on a journey to escape life in a small town devastated by disaster". The film captures, among other things, the small-town landscape, and the beauty of not only dreaming big, but the importance of going after it.

Sweet vermouth on the rocks, with a twist
Elena chats with longtime friend, fellow SUNY Purchase alum, and incredibly talented bartender, Nicolas Flower, about the joy of making (and drinking) cocktails, how to not take sh*t so damn personally, the detriment of the ego, and (perhaps most notably) the "Dave Chappelle Walk-Away".

Ketel One Up, Very Slightly Dirty
Elena kicks off Free Pour's return with fellow SUNY Purchase Opera alum and former industry vet, Julie Diniz. They chat about Julie's 12 year-run in the industry and what happens when you leave the industry behind, what it's *really* like to pursue an opera career and why some people choose to turn the page on it. But ultimately, about the experiences that make life, life, and how at the end of the day, there is always hope for what comes next.

Old Grandad bourbon, LoneStar Beer back
Elena chats with award-winning fiction author, former legislative director at the Texas State Capitol during the 83rd Legislative Session, and native Texan, James Wade. The conversation starts off with his incredible debut novel, "All Things Left Wild", then launches into writing, politics, the beauty yet toxicity of individualism, America's current tribal climate, and all the burning questions in between - but perhaps, with some potential answers. You can purchase James' novel, as well as access his blog and links to his other works, at www.jameswadewriter.com

Blantons neat, diet coke back: PART I
Host Elena chats with (the now infamous?) regular Sean Oakley, who came up in conversation during Episode 3, when Elena described the falling out that occurred between them over a political (and slightly personal) disagreement. After a reconciliation, they talk deeply today (and argue a little) for the first time since, covering everything from politics, cancel culture, the state of American society, and the burning importance of getting to the root.

Pint of ale, shot of Jameson
This week, host Elena chats with regular James Berger, attorney & partner at Jia Law Group, a firm specializing in U.S.-China cross-border transactions. Given James' extensive work in both foreign affairs and the political realm, as well as his current job, today's episode leans heavily towards politics, and policy between China and the states - but as always, focusing on the human element of it all.

Strongbow cider, shot of tequila
