    Sean Gunn on 'California Split'

    2026-10-01 | 1h
    Did you know that Sean Gunn is a cinephile? On this episode, he tells Jordan about relating to Elliott Gould's character in the movie he calls his favorite: Robert Altman's 1974 gambling buddy bromance, CALIFORNIA SPLIT. Sean's new film is a prescient indie horror called APPOFENIACS, in select theaters this weekend! How does it all tie together? In the entertainment industry, every move is a gamble, and you're better off if you're in it for the love of the game.
    Then, as we near the end of our run, Jordan has one quick thing about the great and prolific work she's doing with RSCL at The Action Desk.

    JJ Lippman on Todd Haynes' SAFE

    2026-09-24 | 57 mins.
    JJ Lippman is one of the youngest guests we've ever had on the show, but she also has a new movie (MIND GAMES), and a debut novel out (MARITAL BLISS). She's a fast-thinking, fast-talking, friendly go-getter...so imagine our surprise when she knew for sure that she felt seen by Julianne Moore's Carol White, the lead role in the 1995 Todd Haynes masterpiece SAFE. She and Jordan get into the suburbia, the mental health, the environmental anxiety of it all -- and, perhaps, how to get clear once and for all.
    Then Jordan has one quick thing about a couple of new action films from past guest James Nunn.

    Liam O'Donnell on 'The Terminator'

    2026-09-17 | 1h 6 mins.
    Action director (and co-host of the podcast ACTION FOR EVERYONE) Liam O'Donnell is a great admirer of James Cameron's directing and editing prowess. But long before Liam had even an inkling of his future as a filmmaker, he knew there was something about THE TERMINATOR that really spoke to him. He and Jordan get into all of that -- plus the present and future of action cinema -- in this episode.
    Then Jordan has one quick thing about Louise Weard's CASTRATION MOVIE, coming soon to Alamo Drafthouses.
    Read about Liam's upcoming film, ALPHAS.

    Laura Hudson on 'Aliens'

    2026-09-10 | 57 mins.
    Laura Hudson, former editor at WIRED, the Verge, and more, got tired of telling people in power about the dangers of the tech they were building. Now, she's stopped warning them through journalism, and has pivoted to warning them through art -- like her comic book EXPLOIT, co-authored by Tim Leong. This week, she's telling Jordan about how her experiences writing about tech (and games and comics) has only strengthened her affinity with Ellen Ripley, especially as she appears in 1986's ALIENS.
    Then Jordan has one quick thing about two very different movies to check out in theaters: Onslaught and Practical Magic 2.
    Order the paperback of EXPLOIT Vol. 1

    Rosie Knight on 'The Little Girl Who Lives Down the Lane'

    2026-09-03 | 1h 4 mins.
    Journalist, podcast host, comics author, and all around movie enthusiast Rosie Knight has brought something rare to the table: a movie that was brand new to Jordan! From 1976, it's kind of a horror, it's kind of a slice of life, and it's totally unlike anything else you've seen. Starring a 14-year-old Jodie Foster and a deeply creepy Martin Sheen, it's THE LITTLE GIRL WHO LIVES DOWN THE LANE!

    Then Jordan has two quick things -- one about our show, and another about the late, inimitable Tim Curry.

About Feeling Seen
On Feeling Seen, writer and general enthusiast Jordan Crucchiola invites filmmakers, writers, comedians, and artists to discuss the movie characters that made them "feel seen." It's about that instant when a person connects to a piece of art so deeply that they see themselves reflected in it. Every week Jordan gabs it up with a guest about those magical moments when they were watching a film and realized, "That's me!" It's an informative, funny, and comforting show about our intimate relationship with movies, the impact they have on our lives, and how they influence our art.
