Episode 161: VIFF 2024: Rumours & The Apprentice

Greetings programs!  This week on the show, we're looking at the last of our VIFF 2024 coverage with a discussion of Guy Maddin's surreal political satire Rumours and, following that, a look at the new Donal Trump biopic The Apprentice.  Both films are challenging to the viewer, for entirely different reasons, and we hope you enjoy the conversation.
