Robert and Jason meet up in the same city for only the second time in the podcast’s history! The occasion is the 44th Toronto International Film Festival, and we have two guests on the show as well: longtime friends Kate Wilkinson and Peter Henderson. We had so much fun talking that we’re splitting the episode into two parts - check out Episode 58 for the conclusion of the discussion.

Follow Peter Henderson @henderburn and Kate Wilkinson @tweetsbykate88!
