2025 was a long confusing whirlwind
that I slowly but surely checked off each month with a guest podcast
appearance. Here's a look back at the reciprocating podcasts with
whom I was privileged to chat about horror, classics, westerns,
favorites, and more.

Although
I still have my messages open on Blue Sky
for audio/visual possibilities, 2026 is already booked with dates
into 2027! It's not always easy to find a few extra days a month to
do additional podcast appearances – especially now that my health
has taken priority over podcasting. I didn't get to record companion audio for The
Greatest Movie of All Time Podcast's Cinema Legacy Poll
in which I took part thanks to having finally caught Covid!
Unfortunately, it's also extremely disturbing to know that I previously participated in other podcast appearances with a longstanding film dude bro who turned out to be a recently arrested abuser and criminal. I have no control over that content, and as a woman it's incredibly frustrating and terribly upsetting that the podcasting community does not address these things when they happen. Now I am gunshy about recording with people I do not know because you should be able to trust someone when you are dialing in to have fun and talk about movies. No platform is worth making you feel so uncomfortable.
Nonetheless, I'm so continually grateful for the opportunity to speak
on the films that mean something to me. Sometimes
I wonder if anyone is listening or if my often contrary and unusual
opinions matter to the masses? Many days in 2025, it was difficult to
be presentable with a fully positive voice, and it's often easier to
hide under the covers rather than record. However, the joy of the
conversation about what makes our art worthwhile out weighs the
increasing real world dread. Whatever else the current ill atmosphere
may bring, I'm looking forward to revisiting with several 2024 in Podcasting
friends again this year. More has already been recorded!
