Let's Talk Ten
Dan Fisher and his guests come up with Top Ten lists relating to pop culture --Movies/TV/Music/Etc. -- and then they compare notes.
"Winning" arguments over what's the "best" is never the point. It's just people talking about the stuff they love and why they love it. Sometimes the conversation is silly, sometimes it's deeply personal -- as long as it's entertaining, it goes where it goes.
Each "Let's Talk Ten" will cover a fresh topic (horror movies, debut albums, TV kids' shows) with a different guest. There are no scripts and lists are not shared beforehand.
Episodes will drop every two weeks, on Mondays.

EP. #32 -- BRANDO MOVIES with Burt Kearns
Author BURT KEARNS (“MARLON BRANDO: HOLLYWOOD REBEL”) makes his second appearance on the show, to talk about his favorite BRANDO MOVIES – from the very beginning of the "method" actor's legendary career, all the way to the sometimes strange and sad end.
Dan and Burt discuss Brando’s influence on the craft of acting, his political activism, his complicated personal life – and most of all, his movies: the classics, of course (“The Wild One”), but also some of his greatest performances in films that too many have either never seen or even heard of (“Burn!”).
Marlon Brando was an odd man; a gifted, stubborn, compassionate, fascinating human being who was too often antagonistic toward his own brilliance. His life, on-screen and off, made for a hell of a story. On the page and on this podcast, Burt Kearns tells it beautifully.
