Whoopsy, bye bye! Producer and fellow podcastian "Daniel Cordova" joins Mixtape for the final episode of all time. Let's talk about what happened! (11 years of podcast?!)

If you want to find Mixtape, you can! And if you want to help Mixtape fulfill her compulsive need to ramble about movies, please do.

You can keep listening to Daniel in a lot of different ways, like his band Ala or his other podcasts, Far Beyond Metal, and the archive of BLiPcast. 

Another thing you can do is check out former guest and friend of the pod Dash Kwiatkowski's docuseries, Liminal! Subscribe on YouTube, check out the website, and help fund the completed series at (link).

We are back again with Tom again, the Other Host of I'll Make A Stay Out of You podcast! This time, we manage to stop talking about Stray Kids long enough to talk about HELLA MOVIES. First, we test Tom and his co-host Phil's friendship by seeing if, after more than a decade of friendship, they each could guess which movie(s) the other one would pick. Did their friendship survive this? Listen to find out!

This episode features Bring Your Own Popcorn's first ever Mental Health PSA! Hell Yeah! Plus, why Tom's dad deserves a trophy; Tom's relationship with his brother and which franchise bonded them for life; Tom's trials as the maknae; shout out to Jake; which movie made Tom cry; how Tom is really an emotions feely type of feely person; how many times do you have to watch a movie to be an expert on it; and listen to the rain that was raining really loud in the background of Mixtape's track! Coincidentally, Rain is also the star of Ninja Assassin.

Which Stray Kids member are Tom and Mixtape each, IF ANY?, according to off-brand MBTI and the same Buzzfeed Stray Kids quiz that Bang Chan took? Did Phil correctly guess what Tom would get on the MBTI and BuzzFeed quizzes, and did Tom guess Phil's correctly, or is their friendship about to be put to the test? Listen to find out! You might just end up... STAYing a while, again.

FEATURED FILM: Stray Kids (2017). OTHER FILMS DISCUSSED: our SKZ biases.

Whoops!! This is a very special episode special, just for you. Brought to you partially by ongoing chronic hand pain: Editing is very hard! Episode scheduling is anybody's guess, but here's one now! I had a fantastic guest from one of my favorite podcasts: Phil, from I'll Make a Stay Out of You pod! Phil graciously allowed us to record not one but TWO episodes with him: a non-movie special, and a regular movie episode. This is the special. And the full, equally special, episode with Phil's featured film will be coming at you next time!

This episode dives into Mixtape's new hyperfixation and Phil's ongoing one: the kpop group Stray Kids. What are Phil's and Mixtape's biases respectively? Which member are they each, according to off-brand MBTI and the same Buzzfeed Stray Kids quiz that Bang Chan took? And: What makes these two Americans aged 30+ so passionate about 8 talented young men in Korea? Listen to find out! You might just end up... STAYing a while.
