"Roger & Me" is a celebration of the late, great Roger Ebert, keeping his unique spirit of film criticism alive through his own words on his seminal television program and by reviewing new movies in an easily digestible format. Every Tuesday, Brett Arnold and a guest revisit an old episode of Siskel & Ebert's movie review TV show and reevaluate the movies from a modern perspective. Would today’s audiences give Roger’s take a “Thumbs Up?” And every Friday, join Brett and a guest as they review all the movies set for theatrical release that day and let you know if they're worth your time and money.
