In case you didn’t see the Twitter thread yesterday, I’ve left NOW Magazine.
It’s okay! Honest! After fourteen years at the paper, and almost three and a half decades in journalism, it was time for a change, and an opportunity came along that I just couldn’t refuse.
As of this week, I’m joining TIFF as a programmer, working year-round to curate their digital platform — though I’ll also be involved with some in-person stuff at the Lightbox as well, not limited to my duties as co-host of the Secret Movie Club. (Tickets for next season on sale soon! Don’t miss out!)
I will continue to produce and host Someone Else’s Movie, because there’s no way I’d ever give up a project as fulfilling as that — and as it happens, the last couple of episodes cross over with my final episode of NOW What, in which I join Rad to chat with Nathalie Younglai, Alex Mallari, Jr., and Rong Fu about the show’s genesis, production and relevance.
It’s on your podcast platform of choice, and right here. Enjoy it! It’s nice to enjoy things!
