Who's Our Lead??
A podcast about people you've seen in movies. Whether big or small, bad or good, there are stories to tell about the stars of the silver screen, and each week we watch a new movie to help us figure out exactly why they work, or don't, on the biggest screen we've got.

In the first episode of Intrinsically Profane, Jarrod Nelson and Jordan Petersen Kamp discuss Paul Schrader's 1972 book, Transcendental Style in Film, in which Schrader develops his guiding aesthetic theory using the works of three directors: Yasujiro Ozu, Robert Bresson, and Carl Dreyer. Other topics include Schrader's upbringing in the Christian Reformed Church in Grand Rapids, Michigan and education at Calvin College, a background that is shared by Jordan.
