Happy (American) Thanksgiving, to you and yours! Please take care of yourselves and donate to all groups that fight for Indigenous rights. It's movie night here in the BYWAP household, and, if you couldn't tell yet, your hosts are very dear fans of the late Dutch artist Vincent van Gogh. This week, we watched the prettiest movies in the world, Loving Vincent (2017). Let us join Armand Roulin in his mission to deliver a letter, and fall down the rabbit hole of investigating the red-head's demise. It's so tender and sweet and beautiful—and a tight(ish) 90mins! It's a slow movie, perfect to enjoy with a slice of leftover pie. And a box of tissues. Find out how many times the hosts can gush about HAND-PAINTED FILM FRAMES, contemplate how close Elene is to writing her OWN movie about Vincent van Gogh, groan constantly over the suffering that van Gogh withstood in his short but painful life career, and find a way to stay awake in these days of total darkness as we sit through ANOTHER theory exploration of how Vincent died—as well as the Van Gogh Museum's Definitive Plot To Kill Vincent! Extra, Extra! Read all about it! Things have changed, but we're changing with it. Donate. Sign petitions. Support Black-owned businesses. Educate yourselves. Listen. Speak. Repatriate. Stay Safe.

We want to hear from you, to share this time with you. We're in this together, and we're better together. Please leave us a review wherever you listen to podcasts. Every little bit helps as we grow, and we cannot wait to talk to you all again. This is global. Your voice matters. Systemic change is possible. It will not happen overnight—so keep fighting! We stand with you. Our music was written and recorded by Elene Kadagidze. Our cover art was designed by Lindsey Anton-Wood.
