Guess what, Corpus Christi? KWM may have shrunk, but Joe's patented movie talkin' has outgrown Corpus Christi overnight. The formerly one hour portion of KWM called Movie Hour has blown up into a worldwide phenom! Movie Hour had been the only film talk radio show in Texas and it's absence on CC's airwaves is a huge blow to the city's cool-o-meter, but never fear! It's just moved to a more worldwide-y venue.
The Movie Hour with Joe Hilliard and Ethan Thompson (click here for more info) is Joe's new weekly film podcast that has listeners in all 50 states and over 40 countries. Listen in, movie freaks.
WHAT THIS MEANS FOR KWM:
Allow us to clarify. KWM will stay KWM: Joe pledges to continue changing CC one hour at a time with the BEST guests and most real talk about what's REALLY happening in town. Movie Hour--new and improved, uncensored and on steroids--will be available online, here.
Top Four Questions about The Movie Hour with J & E:
WHAT IS THE MOVIE HOUR?

WHAT IS LIVING ROOM FILM FESTIVAL?
LRFF is your chance to get involved in the show by choosing up to 5 films that you would program as a viewing marathon. Imagine inviting over 20 of your closest friends and they're forced to watch your picks in all-night film-watching blowout. If you owned your own movie theater, what would YOU program? The only catch is that Ethan and Joe pick the theme of LRFF each week.
What films, up to five, would you program into a long night of marathon film watching with your closest friends with that theme? Send the list to us at themoviehour@gmail.com before Wednesday, February 18th, 6PM Central so we can discuss them on air.
