We talk some of the greatest Valentine day movie with Production Designer Cheyenne Ford! Known for her work on Shiva Baby, Give or Take, and Story Ave which is premiering at SXSW.

Panahi made news recently for his release from Iranian prison after a hunger strike. The director made history in 1995 by winning the Caméra d'Or (best first feature film) at Cannes, making Panahi the first Iranian to win a major award at Cannes. He has since gone on to go on making classics like The Mirror, Offsides, This is Not a Film, Taxi, and most recently No Bears. His progressive films have often been banned by the Iranian government. His work is a testament to the power and love of filmmaking.

Writer/Director of the gruesome movie Bone Tomahawk and the pretty good Vaughn flick Brawl in Cell Block 99, ye ol' Zah-dog gives the brothers a lot to talk about.

Remember those old Movie Guide books you saw on your grandparents library? The one with the old dude smiling at you like he new everything about movies. Well we're talking about that guy.

Perhaps one of the most famous and influential American film critics, Pauline Kael is a tough person to tackle. But the brothers give it a go in this ongoing series of film critics.

The lesser known of the Siskel and Ebert show, Gene Siskel was a man with strong opinions. Watch the brothers remain undecided on him.

What is it!

The brothers talk to Possum Hill! Current head of content and creative at 1824 Universal Music Group, but also Sam's old boss back when he was a senior director of video production at Capitol Records and Sam was a wee intern.

Mr. New york times movie review himself! We talk about one of the most iconic movie reviewers currently working.

Starting our new critics series off right. The old grouch himself. A dilly of a podcast. YEEHOOOOO!

The brothers talk to animator and tik toker (and perhaps soon to be children's book writer??) Jordan Studdard!

With Zach out for moving to his new studio apartment, Sam plays his Vinyl records from Amadeus and West Side Story and reads some inspiring words.

We take a break from our typical programming to promote our sister podcast and friend of the show's podcast Into the Ether with Kid Nicoleman, created by Nick Deveau. Check it out on Spotify or where ever you get podcasts.

The brothers talk about the recent deaths and lives of several iconic actors who have played mobsters in movies and TV shows. Tony Sirico who plays Paulie in Sopranos, Michael Caan who plays Sonny in The Godfather, and Ray Liotta who plays Henry Hill in Goodfellas.

Once again, the brothers play an old episode from 1908 with Dudly Kay-Pax and Ishmael. This time, they have Thomas Edison on to talk about his new company. Let's just say, things get a little heated.

The brothers geek out with Mark DePasquale about VFX. Mark is a VFX supervisor and director at Atlantic Pictures, and loves talking about that shinny ball VFX artists use.

This was a tough one. Zach had just moved back to Pittsburgh, Sam was moving in two days, and work was spiraling out of control. So instead of doing a full on episode, Sam reads "Life of Pi" by Yann Martel and slowly falls asleep while playing the theme music to the movie.

The brother talks to McDonalds social media manager and comedian Courtney O'Donnell! Get tickets for her June 15th Hot Cousin's show here. https://www.eventbrite.com/e/hot-cousin-tickets-357837651047

The brothers talk about all mothers days movies! And what exactly does that mean. Like in a metaphorical sense what is the narrative around being a mother? OH! we also talk about Scorsese's mom because ya know.
