Nate does a take back on the idea of taking a summer break and announces the new "Destroy All Algorithms" tshirt available in the Merch store before sitting down for a chat with writer/director/producer Nicole Riegel. They chat about growing up in Jackson, Ohio, working at a movie theater and dreaming of making films, Blockbuster and renting VHS tapes, how we console people who have suffered loss, listening, how the movies Splendor in the Grass and Scream made her want to make movies, how she would like to direct a future Scream installment, her pitch for a film of the Marvel character Gwenpool, the culture of villains, the inability to have nuanced conversations, the weaponization of the culture, creating "content" for social media, the risk adverse nature of independent film, how streaming affects what is made, and patience. Then Nicole tries her hand at The Jawntlet!
