2025 was a very long year but many times, recording with Amy, Zita, Jaylan, and Megan for the Women InSession Podcast at InSessionFilm.com was the shore amid too many turbulent waters. Thank you ladies for the insightful film conversations!
Here are a few of my favorite episodes, subjects, and spotlights.
Marilyn Monroe Dramas / Marilyn and Travilla
Craig as Bond / Women of Bond / Bond in the 80s / Roger Moore / 1960s Bond / Brosnan's Bond
Michael Fassbender / Fassbender Rebuttal
I was particularly proud to listen to several film critics and guests speaking about what rainbow films spoke to them and why we need to hold Hollywood accountable for its lack of onscreen representation.
Kristen Lopez and Popcorn Disabilities
Critic Spotlight Andrew Corns The Revisionist Almanac
Unlike the foolhardy majority, I am not interested in covering the ridiculously overlong and pathetically inaccurate awards season. Nor am I interested in following the cult crowd and chasing the latest new release each week because ~you aren't a ReAL fiLm CriTIc unless you get to see a new movie FiRsT neener neener haha. Focusing on the films that move us and stay with us long after the viewing ends is what is important to me.
I do not like the phrase "stepping back." I think it is an excuse when obligations become overwhelming and people would rather peace out than do what they have to do. However, now I must prioritize my health above podcasting, and thus I will be appearing on the Women InSession Podcast more infrequently.
Follow the Podcast tag for updates on more guest appearances including:
Vampire Videos - Kiss of the Vampire
After Hours Patreon Podcast - L.A. Confidential
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.
Friendship in Film – Women InSession podcast interview at Search Magazine
Revisionist Almanac – 1956 Awards
1999: The Podcast – The End of the Affair
Revisionist Almanac – Women's History Month Collaboration
Female Gaze Podcast – Hateship Loveship
Women InSession: Critic Spotlight Kristin Battestella
The Lone Acting Nominee – City Slickers
After Hours Patreon Podcast – L.A. Confidential
Binge Movies Home Video – JohnHughes Special
Adapt Me Podcast – Poe and Arthur Gordon Pym
Vampire Videos – The Kiss of the Vampire
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!
