Episode Notes

Happy Thanksgiving one and all! While the main podcast is off this week, we still wanted to give you something to show our gratitude for another great year, so Jonathan busted out a microphone, broke open a copy of his new book, 200 Reviews available now on Amazon! – and read 5 reviews as requested by listeners! The ones chosen were Quentin Tarantino’s Death Proof, the latest Fast & Furious film Fast X, Francis Ford Coppola’s The Godfather Part III, Hayao Miyazaki’s Nausicaä of the Valley of the Wind, and David Lynch’s Twin Peaks: The Return. Jonathan reads all of those and gives some insight into the book on this special Thanksgiving bonus episode!

Enjoy, and come back Monday for a big Doctor Who 60th anniversary extravaganza!
