Episode 48: Blindspotting

Posted on by The Screen Tea Podcast

Welcome to Screen Tea Podcast! Crank the speakers in your Uber and get ready as Lisha & Jules cover Lisha’s favorite movie (yes, again, it’s a whole thing), Carlos López Estrada’s 2018 feature length directorial debut, Blindspotting! Grab some green juice (but not from the Kwik Way tho) and dial it up as Lisha digs (Diggs?) deep into the amazing writing and borderline loses it over movie preference hierarchies, Jules keeps on with her apparent issues with cry-acting and highlights stellar cinematography, and both of your hosts lavish never-ending praise onto writers Daveed Diggs and Rafael Casal. This is an important film, folks, maybe one of the most important movies about racial disparity in America that you can get your hands on; so watch it, and then come back to us for some FACEVASIN’.

Episode 40: Paterson

Posted on by The Screen Tea Podcast

Welcome to Screen Tea Podcast! Whether you plan on grabbing a pint at the bar, or sipping tea from a black and white spotted mug, get comfortable and prepare to be soothed (actually, not likely) by the dulcet tones (ha!) of your podcasters as they cover Jim Jarmusch’s poetic masterpiece, 2016’s Paterson! Be lulled by Lisha as she pines over a fictional bus driver and laments the fact that he’s, you know, FICTIONAL, don’t be put off by the fact that Jules might use this film as a hypnotic sleep device in the future, and join your hosts as they both compose stanzas praising Adam Driver, Golshifteh Farahani… and yes, Nellie the dog. It might seem like a slow burning episode this week folks, but no need to fear: we’re here to bastardize any semblance of intellectual discussion about this week’s beautiful film, so pull up a seat on the bus and join the conversation!
