Out riding my bike and listening to podcasts, I managed to listen to two in a row that were both interesting and relevant to film and cinema, both found on Escape Pod:
Episode 105: Impossible Dreams (Tim Pratt) - is about film and cinema, but not the film and cinema that you know about.
Episode 107: Eight Little Stories (Robert Reed) - a dull sci-fi series broadcast on TV is cancelled, but is that all there is to the story?
If you know cinema, the first one has some fairly hilarious moments. The second is not as funny or quirky but there is a definite relevance to the present mediascape.
Both are available at Asimov's (Impossible Dreams, Eight Little Stories) and both are Hugo Nominees.
