  • Summary

  • Poor George. He's never seen any movies. Rather than mourn their dear friend, Travis and Dan have taken it upon themselves to show him what he is missing. But they don't stop at showing him famous movies! They also help George to understand how each film fits into the Great Narrative of Film. Not only THAT the film of the week is significant, but WHY and HOW. Also, they make jokes and stuff.

  • Nosferatu (1922)
    Oct 31 2023

    We're back with a mini Fall Outbreak. It has been a while so Travis and Dan made George watch two black and white vampire classics for the spooky season. The episode was darn near two hours long so here is Part 1. 

    And a word of warning... this one goes to dark places by the end. 

    Hope you missed us as much as we missed you!

  • Nope (2022)
    Apr 19 2023

    The Alienation of George continues (see what we did there?) with 2022's Nope. A movie best seen rather than described. So make sure you see it prior to listening to this episode.

    Contained within this episode is a perfect example of the Travis Arc. Yes, George will learn and come to better understand the movie he just watched. But so will Travis. Sometimes, things just fall right into place.

    Oh and Dan is here too!

    Here is the Vox article referenced in the episode:

  • Close Encounters of the Third Kind (1977)
    Mar 1 2023

    Things got a little... alien... in the last episode so they guys continued that momentum with Close Encounters of the Third Kind.

    And like an episode written by SNL's Weekend Update contribute Stefon, this episode has everything: Aliens, mashed potatoes, the mom from A Christmas Story, the Insane Clown Posse. 

    Join us to hear George love a movie, stick with us to hear Travis bring back the Arnold impression, and wrap it up with a tease for next week that is as brief as it is compelling.
