All The President's Minutes - Minute 101 with Macon Blair
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 minute 101, I talk to Austin-based writer, actor, and director, Macon Blair. Macon and I discuss Robert Walden's face, being in a film - Green Room - that acts as a text that predicts current U.S race conflicts and asking Steven Soderbergh what his favourite movie is...the answer: All The President's Men.
