#694: Crazy Rich Asians / Top 5 Things We've Learned Podcasting (About Movies)
In anticipation of the show's 700th episode, Adam and Josh - and fellow podcast veteran Dave Chen from the /Filmcast - consider what a decade-plus podcasting about movies has taught them. (In short: gratitude, humility, and getting by on less sleep.) Dave also joins the conversation about the new CRAZY RICH ASIANS, a hit at the box office and also the first major Hollywood studio-backed film in 25 years to feature a predominantly Asian and Asian-American cast.
This episode of Filmspotting is presented by Crazy Enough to Work Podcast, Squarespace (code FILM) and Mack Weldon (code NEXTFILM).
