In this remarkable 100th episode of Genre Exposure, we do our usual just a bit early and usher 2024 to a close with a final look back over the year. First, we reflect a bit on the podcast itself and go over some things we learned and struggled with during the year and highlight some of our favorite moments and share just a few regrets. After that, we take our stab at proper top 10 lists and go over some of our favorite film discoveries we made this year. This will be Jason’s last episode for the year as he gears up for a very special vacation. Join us in wishing him well on his trip. Dustin will continue his J-Horror Journal to close out 2024 and look for Genre Exposure to return proper in full force next year.
To everyone that has tuned in, left a comment, or even reached out with feedback, thank you so much. We really appreciate it and it means the world to us. Here’s looking forward to 2025 and another year of exploring (and celebrating) the wide world of cinema.
