XHM #672 - "French Arizona from space" (2023 November 13)

7:01pm - 9:04pm

With both the actors' & writers' strikes over, we can play catch up on newish films as we dig into Wes Anderson's latest Asteroid City. High winds have messed with a bit the radio station's tech so behind the scenes, there's chicken wire & hay to prop things up and we sound great as always despite what the weather has wrought.

Vancouver had strong winds on Friday so our FM tower stopped transmitting after getting a power surge, so you can listen here. One of the studio computers got hit too and it has the bulk of the active playlist library but we have backups in different software so we soldier on.

We'll dig up Beirut and Jane Birkin for a future episode.
