Oeuvre Busters presents is a feed where Liam Billingham talks to folks about movies. It used to be deep dives into one specific filmmaker (Oeuvre Busters). Sometimes it's Rohmercast: a podcast about Éric Rohmer: his films, his working methods, and anything else we want to talk about related to Éric Rohmer. Right now, it's whatever he feels like!
