Atlantic International Film Festival

So thanks to all of you for coming on the show.

And then from TIFF, I went to Atlantic International Film Festival.

I literally hopped off a plane and appeared immediately.

I think at Atlantic that I was the most excited for that we're going to spend the rest of this episode with.

So we're here for the next 10 nights, 5 p.m. Eastern time on Patreon and 10 p.m. Eastern time on YouTube and everywhere audio streaming the next day.

to give you a little taste of all the interviews that we have been recording behind the scenes on the road for you at TIFF, Atlantic Film Festival, and so much more.

Because literally everything coming out this fall is coming out in the next week, I swear.

TV, film.

Anything else from you, Matt? What do we have going on? This week we're doing...

Oh, the Atlantic Film Festival.

Oh, no shit.

That was last week.

Well, I would have posted this a couple of weeks ago, shortly after Dolly passed away, but I had already committed to my interview with Brian Harrington about his film Al Took My Blues Away, and I'm glad I did, as I was completely overwhelmed by the subject matter, including Brian's wonderful film.

And by the way, the film was presented last Sunday at the Atlantic International Film Festival in Halifax, Nova Scotia, and was very well received.

Well, that said, I feel compelled in this podcast to pay con- to tribute to one of the greatest and most influential country singers on the planet.

Now, I realize that there have by now been endless tributes to a wonderful talent and human being, too, but I'm hoping you'll enjoy this one nonetheless.

And our chats will be just that, very conversational, not entirely sensible, and with any luck, totally enjoyable.

You know, it's hard to believe that the 2026 Atlantic International Film Festival is is wrapping up today.

And I tell you what, if you want to have eight days fly by, then just throw a ton of cool parties, host a bunch of wonderful workshops and screen over 100 movies and it'll go by in a blink.

With so much on the go, you have got to know how unbelievable it was for me to score a sit down interview with today's guest.

Welcome back to See and Be Seen and Heard here on Cove FM.

I'm Stephanie Beaumont.

So thrilled to be sitting with Andy Jones, who's in the city of Halifax now for not one, but two screenings at this year's Atlantic International Film Festival.
