Episode notes

Hosts: Ez (he/him) and Sean (she/her) w/ Special Guest George Levi (they/them)

Hey podcast listeners Tranzmission is going on a hiatus until next year. We are brewing some big plans as well as having a much needed break for our team. We've consistently pumped out podcasts for the three years and we've decided three months is a good time to have a rest. We'll still be live each week on 4ZZZ 102.1FM each Tuesday from 9am. You can also listen back live on the website 4zzz.org.au/amrap/tranzmission Looking forward to coming back onto our podcasting platform in 2025.

This week Ez is joined in studio by George Levi to review Elliot Page and Dominic Savage's new film called Close To You. Together (and soon joined by Sean) they dicuss the style of film, what came up for them both throughout the story as well as other film recommendations.
