Paul and Corey Cross the Streams is a bi-monthly podcast in which hosts Paul Pakler and Corey Pepper watch and review streaming content. It’s the Great American Podcast where two friends learn about life as they float down the river of streaming services.

Welcome to Season 7!

As we are now a quarter of the way through the 21st century, like Bill Murray in Tootsie, Paul and Corey are asking, “What happened?”

This season we are looking at the trends, genres, styles, and more that make up cinema of the past 25 years.

In today’s episode, we discuss 12 of those 25 years – 12 years during which Richard Linklater and co. shot the film, Boyhood (2014). Not only does the film exist as a series of snapshots of the actors’ lives as they age, but it also (in retrospect) becomes a sort of swan song of life before the omnipresence of smartphones and social media.

Lots to discuss, so put on your Beatles Black Album and enjoy.
