Chillpak Hollywood Hour #550




CHILLPAK HOLLYWOOD HOUR show

Summary: With how much ground your friends in podcasting cover on this week's show, you'll forgive them going almost eight minutes overtime, won't you? The show starts with a "Live Event of the Week" as Phil regales Dean with tales of his 49th birthday celebrations on a day that involved marionettes, Norse mythology and the oldest restaurant in Hollywood. Then, for the first time in ages, Dean and Phil discuss what they're reading. After that, it's onto "Celebrity Deaths" which contains a correction of a correction from last week, as well as remembrances of a former teen idol, a jazz great, a country music great, a gospel great and two award-winning actors. Then, a few more thoughts about the latest news involving toxic masculinity, the United States Senate and "Whataboutism" before Dean and Phil roll up their sleeves to discuss almost a dozen movies, including both the 1974 and 2017 versions of Murder on the Orient Express, Orson Welles' 1952 Othello, Kelly Reichardt's Certain Women, and this year's award hopefuls Last Flag Flying, Call Me By Your Name, Lady Bird, Mudbound, Hostiles and The Disaster Artist. And speaking of movies, your friends in podcasting need help finishing the long-awaited sequel to their epic documentary The Truth Is Out There ...
