Left of the Projector
Evan, Bill, Ward
On Left of the Projector we discuss from film from a leftist perspective. Episodes will feature guests who will offer their thoughts on films from a shared interest in class consciousness and personal experience. While everyone can take something different from a movie, LotP will provide discussion and analysis from an anti-capitalist and Marxist point of view.

Patriot Games (1992)
It's July 4th, so this week we bring you a movie the CIA fighting the IRA (or a faction of it). This 90's Tom Clancy classic is one of those movies that was a product of its time. Clancy's character Jack Ryan has spawned countless movies and a TV Show. If you're anything like me...you were rooting for the IRA and against the CIA.Commie Trucker: https://twitter.com/commie_truckerLeft of the Projector Linkshttps://www.patreon.com/LeftoftheProjectorPodhttps://boxd.it/5T9O1https://leftoftheprojector.comhttps://instagram.com/leftoftheprojectorpodhttp://tiktok.com/@leftoftheprojectorpodhttps://www.threads.net/@leftoftheprojectorpod

The episode includes book differences and discussion of all 4 films.

Saved! w/ James Doonquah and Smirk Gently
Saved! is one of those early 2000's films that kind of flew under the radar. The movie stars Jena Malone, Mandy Moore & Macaulay Culkin as a parody of what it's like to be in a Christian community and high school. The premise being Malone become pregnant and all of the drama that ensues.
I am joined by friend of the show Smirk Gently as well as James Doonquah (Legion of Doom on socials).
