Better late than never, as Gav Smith of My Favourite Film rejoins us to talk about Interstella 5555 - The 5tory of the 5ecret 5tar 5ystem.

Spontaneous EvolutionTherapy, Will Smith, Jordan PetersonMy work is mostly around Shadow integration, those pieces of ourselves that we most avoid and try to eradicate. In this podcast I speak a little about my own experience in therapy and how those working in the psychotherapy world greatly struggle with presence and shadow integration because they are so deeply invested in the process of analysing every feeling rather than just feeling, excluding the mind.
I go on to share my thoughts around Will Smith's reaction at the Oscars and Jordan Peterson's ongoing struggles. A man with all that knowledge, understanding, and success, yet deeply...

To celebrate, we've got Gav Smith from the My Favourite Film podcast back in to cover one of the big names (in terms of profile, if not in height) that we haven't covered so far - Prince, and his blockbuster first movie Purple Rain.

More a vehicle for the extraordinary album accompanying it than a narrative movie, Purple Rain nevertheless maintains a cult following, thanks in part to encapsulating the fascinating contradictions that Prince embodied. He could be macho...

Pop ScreenS2 Ep43: Pop Screen: Beats Rhymes & Life (with Gav Smith)Shahid Mohammed, cut it with precision: this week Pop Screen is going back to the Daisy Age of hip-hop with Michael Rapaport's documentary Beats Rhymes & Life: The Travels of A Tribe Called Quest. Somewhat incredibly the first ever documentary about a hip-hop band, this warts-and-all look at Tribe's history annoyed Q-Tip by focusing on the tensions between him and the late Phife Dawg. But the film as a whole is fonder and more sensitive than Rapaport's career as a social media nuisance would have you believe.
