Eric D. Snider is in Sundance (yes, another film festival), and his computer broke, or he broke it. One or the other. This goes to prove you shouldn’t put your faith, especially your technology faith, in a guy willing to wear this hat.

While Eric isn’t looking, allow me to pimp.

You can listen to me, Jeff Bayer, on “The Bob Miller Show” for my 10-minute segment. It’s better than nothing, right? Just jump to 7:30 on the audio player.

About the Podcast
Jeff Bayer and Eric D. Snider are movie critics, but not the stuffy, elitist kind. They’re not the idiotic fanboy kind either. So what kind of movie critics are they? The kind with an Internet radio show, that’s what.

“Movie B.S.” features reviews of new films both good and bad, smackdowns of the bad movies of yesteryear, and a plethora of other movie-related features. All of it is tied together by cavalier banter between Bayer and Snider, who noticed that there was a dearth of cavalier banter on the Internet and sought to rectify that.
