About this episode

Remember owning your movies and music on tape, CD or DVD? Physical media is having a moment again as frustration mounts with streaming platforms that can remove beloved shows at a moment’s notice while charging endless subscription fees. More people report feeling nostalgic for a time when we could truly hold onto the media that we love. We’ll look into what’s driving this analog resurgence. What’s a piece of physical media you’re holding on to? Guests: Joe Pickett, co-founder, co-host and curator, Found Footage Festival Jeff Rauseo, content creator and writer covering movies, home entertainment and physical media; author, "Lost in the Stream: How Algorithms Redefined the Way Movies Are Made and Watched" Jacob Gaboury, associate professor of film and media, UC Berkeley Learn more about your ad choices.
