Episode 19 - We the Northman
Jordan and Rod are joined by returning guest and Layered Butter founding member - Andrew Perucho.
Together we’re donning our historically inaccurate horned Viking helms and diving headfirst into the battle frenzy in the hopes of glorious podcast death and one-way ticket to the halls of Valhalla. The three of us were lucky enough to attend the Canadian premiere of Robert Eggers' new ‘historical’ fantastical big-budget arthouse film - The Northman.
What does the director of The VVitch and The Lighthouse make when given 10x the budget? Go watch the film and then listen to our spoiler-filled discussion to find out!
Before we get to that review we chat about celebrity scandals (and how gross tabloid news can be), the decline of Netflix in the news and the Russian media boycott pushing Russians to embrace soviet-era tactics to keep up with modern movies.

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
