Episode 285: The Tale of Tales Of Rocky Point Park

This week we interview Jason Mayoh, creator not only of the Tales Of Rocky Point Park graphic novel, but also the director of the Tales Of Rocky Point Park film! Wow! We learn about his entire career, from his beginnings as a production assistant, working through art departments, storyboarding, to finally appearing on this podcast, which I think he called "the pinnacle of anyone's career." Not sure if that has any shred of truth. But he's a good guy and it was such a fun interview.
~ Brad
P.S. I freaked the hell out when I found out he did the storyboards for the "The Town" with Ben Affleck!! I flipped my shit! - Chuck

Episode 209: Origin Stories, Rock & Roll Hall of Fame, and Filming with Senior Discount

The 209th episode of the podcast finds Chuck and Brad joined by the incorrigible Abe Correia and the intolerable Eric Maksood. After some Brad and Senior Discount Updates, the guys discuss the below Web Couliers in great detail. Once that is done, they discuss the recent announcement of Fast & Furious 8, as well as Aziz Ansari's new deal with Netflix to produce an original comedy.
They talk about a new animated Spider-Man movie and debate whose origin story is more widely-known: Spider-Man or Superman? There's some talk about a TV movie about Grand Theft Auto and the controversy that has surrounded the games, as well as the plans for Brad, Chuck, and Maksood to see the Fat Wrecked tour. Chuck promotes the Chris Jericho-starring web series Nothing To Report, then the guys ponder furniture with induction chargers built in. There's some back-and-forth about Matt Skiba permanently (?) joining blink-182, as well as a long conversation about Green Day being inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame.
Finally, the four amigos talk about filming the most recent Senior Discount video. Maksood gives his account of going from fan to actor, and Abe talks about going from bit player to actual character. Chuck laughs at his own jokes.

Episode 154: The Story of Dan Martin

Another big interview episode! This week the guyzos (part guy, part bozo) meet with local guyzo Dan Martin. After some quick updates concerning projects the three scoundrels are working on, Chuck offers a few movie driplets. News about the Sinister Six movie, the new Truman Show, uh, show, and some shifts in the world of late night television. Chuck then talks about the death of beloved comics character Archie and the exhumation (possibly) of a landfill's worth of ET cartridges. Our three compatriots then chat about the brand new movie "Captain America: The Winter Soldier", and what they thought of it.
The interview itself then begins with Dan's childhood. Hear his unflinching take (well, Brad flinched through most of it) on how his upbringing affected his sense of humor and comedy. What were the pivotal moments that led to him taking on stand-up as an art form, and why does he enjoy it so much? What did Mick Foley tell him about titties? It's a refreshingly clear look at Dan's devotion to art and comedy.

Episode 153: The Story of Eric and Soundoff

It's our second "big interview" podcast, as Chuck and Brad delve deep into the twisted(?) mind of Eric Maksood, lead singer of local band Soundoff. Before we get to all that, though, we get updates on Soundoff's upcoming show, a Brad performance update, and some news from Senior Discount courtesy of Chuck. The boys then wax ecstatic about the possibilities of the new Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles trailer, then talk about an April Fool's Day prank perpetrated ON Chuck, that affected him extremely emotionally.
The interview itself starts with a lot of background on Maksood's...uh...background in music. What songs/instruments motifs influenced him? How did that lead to him forming a band? Hear about the lows and highs of his journey through the Rhode Island music scene with refreshing candor and honesty! And also pretty much every band name he's ever encountered!
