Episode 010: Crossing Samurai Swords with Craig Terlson

In this week's episode, I'm talking with writer Craig Terlson, about our shared love of samurai films  - from Kurosawa's classics  Yojimbo (1961), Sanjuro (1962)and The Seven Samurai  (1954) to Kobayashi's Harakiri  (1963) and Beat Takeshi's Zatoichi (2003). Craig also disscusses how samurai films have influenced his latest novel.

Episode 008: Who you gonna call? Aaron Epp!

There’s something strange in your neighbourhood. This week, we're talking Ghostbusters with Aaron Epp.

Aaron is a Winnipeg-based journalist, writing for Canadian Mennonite, a national church publication, as well as a regular column about volunteerism and philanthropy for the Winnipeg Free Press. And Aaron is a hardcore Ghostbusters enthusiast.

We talk about his early (and I mean early) love of The Real Ghostbusters cartoon, getting to see the movie, and how the whole Epp family got in on his fandom. We also talk the original vision of the film, the reboot, sequels and toys. 

You can find Aaron on Twitter at @aaronepp. He’s promised to share the pictures he talked about.
