Three times a month, a panel of movie and pop culture geeks get together to do a deep-dive exploration into movies and TV shows to explore their history, and to learn more generally about history from the pop culture of the times! Join us on the 8th, 18th, and 28th of each month as we trace a character, director, actor across a series of films, or just watch a movie or TV show we think is notable.
