Today I'm joined by Michael--or as you know him, @Mikelennial--to talk about the incredibly sweethearted 90s teen film, ANGUS. It's a movie that's been eclipsed by its soundtrack over the years, but it shouldn't be. And in this episode Michael and I talk about why. It's a movie about loving yourself for who you are, being comfortable with the person you are, and doing what makes you happy even if it's not the norm. All things that resonate pretty strongly in 2023. As for the soundtrack...

Eric Peacock hosts Soundtracker, a weekly dive into the often-overlooked world of original motion picture soundtracks. Forget the simple playlists of pop songs; this is about the dedicated albums created for films, from undisputed classics to forgotten curiosities and everything in between. Each episode focuses on a single movie, weaving together a discussion of the film itself with a deep, thoughtful analysis of its accompanying soundtrack. The conversation explores how the music works within the story, stands alone as an album, and occupies its unique place in cultural memory. It’s a blend of genuine film criticism and music nerdery, delivered with a conversational and often comedic tone that reflects the show’s categories. While you can find samples elsewhere, full episodes of this podcast are available exclusively through Patreon, offering complete access to Eric’s thorough and entertaining explorations. Whether you're a cinephile, a music collector, or just someone who loves a good behind-the-scenes story, there’s a fresh discovery waiting in every installment.
