| 0:00.0 | I'm Sean Fennessy. I'm Amanda Dobbins. |
| 0:17.7 | And this is the big picture and conversation show about December. Today on the show, we're previewing the summer movie slate with another one of my little games. Later in the show, I'll be joined by Daniel Goldhaver. He is the co-writer and director of Faces of Death, the new super smart, super nasty reboot of the 1978 cult horror curio. Danny was last on the show talking about his second feature, |
| 0:40.3 | How to Blow Up a Pipeline, which was one of the best movies of 2022. |
| 0:43.8 | A great thinker about movies and media and excellent discussion. |

| 1:46.1 | So, voicemail, we'd love to hear from you. I've never sent a voice note. |

I don't know how to do it. I send it to the wrong person. I assure you it's not the most boomer thing about you. Anyhow, if you want to talk at us and have us respond to you, you can call us. Once again, that number is 323-488-3-241. We will send a reminder about that later this week, Two, we got to get into our show now. |
