## Resource

In this episode, Josh and Jack asked what happened to: a director, an actor, an actress, a movie and a genre. All of our selections left the pop culture mainstream pretty quickly and we here at The Longlist will attempt to find out why. We're here to get to the bottom of it. This is a little bit of a different episode, so enjoy. Music credit: Happy and Fun Kids Jazz by Alex Productions- (Free Music Archive), (cc by-nd)
