Welcome to The Nude Tuesday Podcast
Nude Tuesday is a brilliant new film from Armagan Ballantyne and Jackie van Beek about a suburban couple who go to a new-age retreat as a last ditch attempt to save their marriage. Their path to reconnection is riddled with hilarity and humiliation as they seek to find themselves and each other. Plus there's nudity, Jemaine Clement is a sex guru and oh yeah, everyone is speaking in a gibberish.
Tim Batt hosts a series of interviews of a range of people who contributed to Nude Tuesday, from director Armagan Ballantyne to screenwriter Jackie van Beek to actors Jemaine Clement, Damon Herriman, Karen O'Leary and Chris Parker to musician Luke Buda and even the person who created and trained everyone on the 'gibberish', dialect coach Perry Piercy.
