Activate The Hot Tub Time Machine! Doc Talk Podcast Soaks In TIFF Nonfiction Lineup With Festival’s Chief Documentary Programmer


TIFF chief documentary programmer Thom Powers joins Doc Talk to discuss the festival’s 2024 nonfiction lineup, including The Last Republican.

In the new episode of Deadline’s Doc Talk podcast, TIFF’s chief documentary programmer Thom Powers joins the show to discuss the festival’s 2024 nonfiction lineup, including The Last Republican. That film “stars” former GOP Rep. Adam Kinzinger, an ex-member of the January 6th Congressional investigating committee who turned on President Donald Trump after the insurrection and hasn’t let up since (unlike, say, Sen. Mitch McConnell, or former House Speak Kevin McCarthy). Powers explains how Kinzinger ended up telling his story to filmmaker Steve Pink, a self-described leftie best known for 2010’s time-traveling hot tub comedy.
