Bill Streeter is joined by Bowls MacLean on this episode to discuss the six part HBO documentary series Q: Into the Storm by Cullin Hoback. Bowls has his own podcast, the Bowls MacLean hour which you can listen to here.

The Vow is a new nine part documentary series on HBO about the NXIVM mlm sex cult.  we discuss if it's worth watching and look forward to some other documentaries that will be dropping soon.

We launched this podcast in October of 2019 so we are one year old this month! We took this opportunity to take a look back at some of the films we talked about in our first year of the Podcast.

We were joined this week by Bobby Herrera to discuss a documentary he picked called "In the Realm of Perfection" by Julien Faraut. Bobby (Robert T. Herrera) is an old friend and colleague of both Bill and Jacob. He has made several films and you can learn more about his work here.

This week we watched the 2015 documentary The Wolfpack about a family who lived isolated in the middle of New York for years and the six brothers who eventually escaped.

This week we are joined by Oscar Harding who is finishing his own film "A Life on the Farm" which is a found footage documentary for which he is raising money to finish on Kickstarter here. We discuss this project and if you find the project as compelling as we did you can contribute to the kickstarter which ends very soon. He also chose the television documentary "Finding Frances" which was the season finale of "Nathan for You" a Comedy Central reality show. The film blurs the lines between reality TV and legitimate documentary.

On this episode we discuss the disturbing yet compelling 2003 documentary Capturing the Friedmans that offers a rare inside look at a family facing a profound crisis when the father and one son is accused of child molestation.

This is an episode recorded before the Covid-19 pandemic. Where's My Roy Cohn? is a fascinating portrait of one of the most influential figures of the 20th century that you've probably never heard of.

We were joined this week by guest filmmaker Justin L. Fisher who picked Side by Side (available to stream on multiple platforms) for our discussion this week. Justin has a new film out himself entitled "Recording in Progress" about the current state of the recorded music business. It's a good discussion, we hope you enjoy!

Where we take a look at the 1992 experimental documentary Baraka. Mentioned in the podcast is this interview with the filmmakers.
