At last. He is not only my favorite talk show radio host, but one of the main reasons I became passionate about film in the first place.\\xa0 WGN\'s own Nick Digilio, who has been reviewing movies since 1985, came into my life in December of 1989 alongside the legendary Roy Leonard.\\xa0 I haven\'t stopped listening to Nick review movies on a weekly basis since then.\\xa0 He\'s been incredibly supportive, so it was only a matter of time he comes on to the podcast since he\'s one of the smartest guys I know.\\xa0 We chose to tackle the filmography of one of our greatest filmmakers of all time.\\xa0 And inevitably, decided that we have to record a sequel episode in a few weeks.

Martin Scorsese has made a myriad of incredible films, including masterpieces way early on that became hugely influential.\\xa0 We started recording thinking we could cover it all under two hours, but alas, the discussion for Part One ends at GOODFELLAS, but everything before that is covered including MEAN STREETS, TAXI DRIVER, RAGING BULL, THE LAST TEMPTATION OF CHRIST, AFTER HOURS and a whole lot more.\\xa0 In about a month, Nick will come back for the second half in which we start out with Scorsese\'s only remake to date.\\xa0 Recorded a few days after my birthday, this was one of the best gifts for me as a fan of Nick\'s show but as a fan of cinema.\\xa0 Hopefully you enjoy this conversation as much as I did, and I look forward to continuing this examination & education in early June so stay tuned!
