Andrew and special guest, writer and director Jesse Mendelsohn, take on the iconic 2001 indie dramedy, Ghost World. Co-written and directed by Terry Zwigoff, this one-of-a-kind graphic novel adaptation will make you laugh hysterically and cringe painfully in equal measure. Boasting a cast of characters that are so true to life, this classic may leave you remembering your own teenage years in a whole new way!

Andrew and Jesse touch on such topics as the multiple meanings of the fascinating title, making sense of the unique lead character, breaking down the unflinching and uncomfortable aspects of the film, "higher art" as examined by the story, and so much more.

IT'S ABOUT TIME TO BOARD THE BUS!!
