Muhf***as I Know: Nick Schager

b"It's another one of those Crizzlecasts where I talk to someone I've never spoken to before -- and end up having one of the best times of my natural existence!\\nI had a very fascinating time talking to Nick Schager, one of the chief critics over at Slant Magazine and quite the in-demand freelancer. I'm sure a major reason I had a good time is because we mostly kvetched about how hard it is to be a gotdamn freelancer in this day and age. We just talk about how hard it is to get gigs, how difficult it is to champion good, obscure films, how much of a pain it is talking to folk who just want to know if a movie's good or bad or not -- and so on.\\nThis is pretty much an hour and some change of two film critics bitching. Enjoy."
