BucketCast : Episode 12 : 1.2.2012

Danny Baldwin · January 2, 2012

Danny Baldwin (right) and Michael Lester (left) host BucketCast.We have a grand ‘ol reunion episode of the BucketCast for you this week — the first in over a year and a half! Usual co-host Michael is M.I.A., but I’ll keep the logo with him in it, anyway, because I don’t have the energy to make another. The actual co-hosting honors go to Leah Rosenbaum and Reid Ackerman, both of whom have appeared on the show in its various incarnations. Because we recently brought in the New Year, we’re counting down our respective Top 5 Films of 2011.

Download the episode here. It will also be available on iTunes within 24 hours.
