All The President's Minutes is a podcast where conversations about movies, journalism, politics and history meet. Each show we use the seminal and increasingly prescient 1976 film All The President's Men as a portal, to engage with the themes and the warnings of the film resonating since its release. For the 63rd minute, I join entertainment journalist with bylines at Variety, SheKnows, Awards Circuit, the very talented Courtney Howard. Courtney and I discuss how much we relish fully realised lives of the secondary characters, the weight of ethical compromise, and how much we would never want to call an ex for a favour.
