And I hope the new year starts with better news on RNZ movie coverage. I've downloaded Simon's last episode but haven't been able to bring myself to listen to it yet. I followed his music career from when I was a teen (& he probably was too) through tour stops in Palmerston North and Wellington pub residencies, and so was chuffed to hear his easy voice & dry delivery turn up on RNZ. Like you I've probably disagreed with his views more than not, but getting a different perspective is why I follow critics not just fan accounts. I'll miss his 'average moviegoer' POV.
When did RNZ start doing Film shows? (I'm old enough to just remember Jonathon Dennis). Maybe there is a book to be written there by someone? :->. Have a good break.
Have a good break!

Glad you’re getting a break, Dan “Last Man Standing” Slevin. Well earned.
I’m still not able to discuss the other guy leaving us. <<weeps openly>>
