40 years ago, one of the greatest concert films ever made was released: STOP MAKING SENSE by the Talking Heads. The film has recently been re-released in a beautifully remastered format by A24. Anthony, Stephanie, Rob and Alan review in-depth the new release of this classic film which captures a band at the height of their confidence; We'll talk about the first time we ever saw the film, our favorite songs, the supporting musicians, why this film is so important, and how it compares to David Byrne's more recent concert film, American Utopia. And Rob shares his experiences playing host at one of the premiere screenings!
