• TCM Host Ben Mankiewicz On Baseball, TCM’s Legacy, And The Future Of Classic Film

  Send us a textWe sit down with Ben Mankiewicz to trace his path from sports-obsessed kid to TCM host, exploring what makes a film “classic,” why nostalgia hits harder with age, and how storytelling in podcasts and on-air curation keeps cinema alive. Along the way, we debunk Cleopatra myths, celebrate overlooked gems, and make the case for family movie night as a way to slow time.  This is a perfect podcast for the holidays, as we ruminate on family, nostalgia, and the importance of movies. Links:TCM WebsiteThe Plot Thickens: Cleopatra PodcastTalking Pictures Podcast The Extras Facebook page The Extras TV YouTube ChannelThe Extras Twitter Warner Archive & Warner Bros Catalog Group Join our new public Facebook Group for Warner Archive Animation Fans and get the latest update on all the releases.
