Episode 12 - Canada Day Special

<p>For a problematic Canadian holiday, we watched two Canadian movies with problems. First, Toronto’s Rob Ford scandal meets millennial media angst in the 2020 drama <em>Run This Town</em>. Then, a Montreal reporter with an advanced case of horniness organizes a newspaper union in the 1974 sex comedy <em>Why Rock The Boat?</em></p> <p>Tara and Jacob discuss Damian Lewis’ baffling Rob Ford impression, sexy popcorn eating, and our true patriot love for seeing characters take their shoes off when they come inside.</p> <p>Box Office Bylines is a podcast about movies about journalism.
