Exploding Head Movies Episode September 19, 2022

XHM #617 - "Carrying on with the penny royalty" (2022 September 19)

6:59pm - 9:03pm

With the passing of Queen Elizabeth II (1926-2022), we pay tribute to her as a person whilst wondering what a monarchy means in the 21st century. We'll profile Alexandre Desplat's score to the 2006 film The Queen as we juggle other queens amongst the usual round of other topics, including some Polaris Prize nominee catch-up -- along with a Waiting for Godot moment for a winner that happened well after airtime -- recent Emmy news and other things going wrong around the world in this dense episode. Giddy up, go pony!

Regular podcast subscribers: yes, there are 2 missing episodes based on numbering. The station logging server ran out of memory and the appropriate people who regularly look at it were away so down the road, expect a hybridized Ep. 615 + 616 fusion that tries to replicate both chaotic transmissions.
