BONUS: Belated Best of 2019
We're about 6 weeks too late for prime year-end-list season (blame Nina and/or the fact that none of the good movies come out until December) but that isn't stopping us from giving our belated takes on the last year in music and film. Will highlights albums from Cate Le Bon, FKA twigs, and David Berman’s Purple Mountains, and Nina shouts out “Uncut Gems,” “Hustlers,” and “Mister America” (all of which, sadly, were snubbed by the Academy). *This episode was recorded on January 13, 2020, hence the Oscars talk.* Clips used: - "Miami" by Cate Le Bon - "MT BTL 3.0" by Tim Heidecker - "Cellophane" by FKA twigs - "Criminal" by Fiona Apple - "Powerade" by Daniel Lopatin (from "Uncut Gems" OST) - "All My Happiness Is Gone" by Purple Mountains Note: We do not own the music used in this episode.

S2E9: The Streaming Decade
In less than a week, Martin Scorsese's "The Irishman" will drop onto Netflix accounts everywhere, becoming the latest film to be released directly to a streaming service. And just last week, Disney launched its exclusive streaming service, Disney+, heralding a new era for TV streaming. As we enter the 2020s, what will these developments mean for pop culture? In this episode of "Reel to Reel," Nina and Will take a deep dive into the meteoric rise of streaming in the 2010s — and what it means for music, TV and film. Topics discussed include the precarious state of movie theaters, the power of algorithms, the danger of treating Spotify like an endless archive, and the importance of non-digital preservation in the wake of events like the Universal Studios warehouse fire. Clips used: - "21st Century Schizoid Man" by King Crimson - "Plastic Love" by Mariya Takeuchi Note: We do not own the music used in this episode.

Clips used: - Screaming clip from Andrzej Żuławski's "Possession" - "Jesse" by Scott Walker - "The Cabinet" by Das Kabinette - "The Witch" by The Sonics Note: With the exception of the theme, we do not own the music used in this episode.
