Another hot one today, but thankfully not like that 32 degree abomination we had yesterday. I'm camped out in my bedroom with two fans, reviewing some of the DocEdge submissions for the 2024 Festival.

No worries, I googled it. I'm surprised I didn't even notice it when DocEdge was here. Never mind. I hope it'll come out on Apple Movies so that I can rent or buy it before next year.
