The Great American Talk Show: Season Finale!

It's hard to believe, but another semester of the Great American Talk Show has come to an end! You can check out the season finale, featuring host Tom Brennan and cohorts Alasdair Wilkins and Kevin Burrows, here: TGATS 4.26.09.

This episode featured a live interview with producer Bruce Windwod and director John McKenzie of 12 in a Box, a British comedy that premiered in the US at the Boston Irish Film Festival on April 25. The evening after our broadcast, 12 in a Box was awarded Best Original Screenplay at the BIFF awards. Coincidence? Nevertheless, congratulations! We highly recommend you check this film out!

Thanks for sticking with us this season, and we hope you'll join us again next year with the return of our esteemed host Alex Doubet.
