Get the tissues ready. We were blessed to be joined by Sam Humphrey who play Tom Thumb in The Greatest Showman. Listen in as Sam opens up about the obstacles he faced on his path towards being an actor which included living with a disability as well as the emotional and mental battles he encountered. An amazing story of faith, positivity, and determination led to Sam acting alongside his childhood hero, Hugh Jackman.

In the mood for an interesting story? How about a small idea from a 15-year-old in Iowa followed by an innocent conversation over breakfast ultimately leading to the creation of a film sporting 13 Oscar nominations including Best Picture! Jump on in to this conversation with Daniel Kraus, Co-Author of "The Shape of Water" who birthed the idea that became the blockbuster film directed by Guillermo Del Toro.

In this episode, Paul Walter Hauser who plays Shawn Eckhardt in the Oscar-nominated "I, Tonya" joins the show! Listen in as he talks backstage stories, the challenges of portraying a real-life person, and a story of when he was momentarily Margot Robbie's real-life bodyguard!

Year 1 is in the books! Listen in as Chet and Rodney tell the untold truth of the fiasco that was the Rob Burnett interview. Also, they guys recap all of the movies and many guests from the past year. Make sure you stick around for the end because there is a MAJOR announcement that will impact the future of the show!

In this very special episode, the guys interview Patrick Brice, Director and Co-Star of "Creep" which also stars Mark Duplass. Creep is the "Movie Night Pick of the Week" but it almost never happened! Listen in about how not only Creep, but 2016 Best Picture Winner "Moonlight" share roots in a quickly forgotten horror movie about a killer pig, and how Patrick's involvement spurred him on to success.

In this episode there are not 1 but 2 guests! Right before we jumped on the phone with Charles Hood (Director of Night Owls) he told us that Seth Goldsmith was also available for the interview. What transpired was a conversation about "the creative process" held between 2 pairs of friends who love movies and have a blast talking about them!

Episode 50?? Crazy.

Our friend Lyndon Wells from Top10Films.co.uk is back to take part in a very special episode where we get to interview Tony Germanario, the Writer/Director of "Bad Frank" starring Kevin Interdonato, Amanda Clayton and Tom Sizemore.

Listen in as the guys ask Tony all about the creative process, working with Tom Sizemore, and the craziness of directing on the tightest of budgets.

​In this episode, we get the chance to talk to Kurt Braunohler from "The Big Sick" who talks about his career and what it was like to star in an early "Best Picture" contender. 

In addition to talking about his career, Kurt also talks about why it is that comedians seem to stick together and how he landed his role in "The Big Sick". He also gives a definitive answer to the age old question: "Which podcast is better: This American Life or Down the Hall." The answer: Down the Hall...obviously.
