## Resource

It's film festival season! Grierson is going to be at all of them, so he and Leitch preview all the big movies that will be coming out this fall. Fall is an actual season that will happen! It won't be 1,000 degrees forever! Enjoy your Labor Day, we will be back September 20. Thanks to Dylan Mayer and My Friend Mary, both of which are wonderful, for the music. We hope you enjoy.
