212: 2022 VIFF Wrap Up

While Rachel got to have her fun covering TIFF, those of us on the west coast got to enjoy the Vancouver International Film Festival. Joining the show is Matthew Simpson, one half of the Awesome Friday Podcast, who was last heard on episode 211: A24 Retrospective - The Rover. We're trying something new, both Contra Zoom and Awesome Friday are releasing the same episode, so you can listen to the show either on this feed or theirs! We each rank our top five films seen during the VIFF.
