blisterreview.com. Okay, today we have got a really fun one for you, and I'm very happy to welcome to the show,

0:26.2

Alexei Godbu and Stan Ray, and we are talking about their new film, Follow the Forecast,

0:32.7

which is a very somber and contemplative exploration of the age-old philosophical topics of time and meaning and existence.

1:59.5

We talk about a lot of other stuff too, including who won the
