2025/10/15

Seen any good local movies lately? Take “M3GAN” and “The Boys in the Boat” for example. Two very different movies, very popular, which are set in Seattle, but they were not filmed in Seattle. That happens a lot. In fact, the film industry is largely absent from Washington state. So what can be done to get more local productions off the ground? Well, we’ve got a few film experts on the show today to dive into this issue. Other events: SIFF Downtown screening of Train

Mapes traveled across the country, visiting some of the oldest trees we know about and the people who study and protect them. The result was a book that intricately depicts the importance of old trees, the historic harm humans have done to them, and what's being done to reverse that pattern of destruction

The collection dives into modern-day anxieties, turning them into the titular monsters. It's one of book club curator Katie Campbell's favorite books she's chosen yet. So, on
