#515 - Chuck's Creative Steps!

We kick this week off with some listener emails! Should Chuck have suspected foul play in his recent coffeeshop misadventure? We talk about the below Web Couliers, then Chuck talks about the exciting things he's been up to recently. Filming and editing the big Tell Em Steve-Dave/Smodcast crossover episodes. Starting to work with Tuesdays With Stories. Possibly getting an office? As all this is going on, he suffers a mystery injury and worries deeply about his immediate and long-term future. He actually films with the Tuesdays guys, eats at the delicious restaurant J22 in Jamestown, RI, then (spoiler alert) goes all-in on the office. Sure, moving him in went smoothly, but how did actually setting everything up go? We then discuss the likelihood of Chuck being attacked by creatures when working alone in his office at night. I offer a paltry celebration for my paltry achievements and we talk about being above- or below-average in different areas of our lives.

#399 - Fyre Documentary, Bad Times At The El Royale, and A Star Is Born

This week finds us recording with Gina Mastrostefano and Dylan the Intern! Chuck and I discuss some listener emails about wrestling and The Beatles (separate emails, although I'm pretty sure at least two of the Beatles were intercontinental champs at some point). We talk about our Chipotle party watching the Royal Rumble, Chuck and Gina tell us about his fun trip to New Jersey and NYC and I barely contain my jealousy. After that, we break down some movies! We discuss the (Netflix) documentary about the Fyre Fest, then a spoiler-free review of Bad Times at the El Royale. We follow that with a spoiler-free discussion of A Star Is Born, then make it very clear when we're switching to a spoiler-full review of the film. Film criticism! Woo!
Closing the show this week is fellow Paper and Plastick artist Low Spirits with their song A Father's Forgiveness Song!
