Episode 19 - We the Northman

Jordan and Rod are joined by returning guest and Layered Butter founding member - Andrew Perucho.

Together we’re donning our historically inaccurate horned Viking helms and diving headfirst into the battle frenzy in the hopes of glorious podcast death and one-way ticket to the halls of Valhalla. The three of us were lucky enough to attend the Canadian premiere of Robert Eggers' new ‘historical’ fantastical big-budget arthouse film - The Northman.

What does the director of The VVitch and The Lighthouse make when given 10x the budget? Go watch the film and then listen to our spoiler-filled discussion to find out!

Before we get to that review we chat about celebrity scandals (and how gross tabloid news can be), the decline of Netflix in the news and the Russian media boycott pushing Russians to embrace soviet-era tactics to keep up with modern movies.
