This is an episode that was released on my other podcast, The Bend. I talked with Lizzie Borden, director of BORN IN FLAMES and WORKING GIRLS, during the height of the pandemic. It was an honor to have a chance to talk with her about her craft.We talked about her films, of course, as well as what it was like towork with Harvey Weinstein, the #metoo movement, and quite a lot more.
The book about sex work that Lizzie Borden mentions in the episode is now out, you can find it here

Back in October I went to Sitges Festival in Spain for the first time.

I talked to the Adams Family right before the world premiere of their latest film Where the Devil Roams back in July. I've been a fan of The Adams Family, who make films as a family, for some years now, and it was a delight to have them on the podcast! In our chat, we talked about how they started making films, the overarching themes in their work, and, of course, their new film Where the Devil Roams.
