Today’s guest will be a familiar voice to anyone who listened to my previous show, My Favorite F Words, as he was one of the longtime co-hosts. It’s Jeff Carleton, author of the novel, The Man in the Garden and writer/producer of his own horror film, The House Behind the Wall. Jeff’s a stellar guest and even flips the script at the end and interviews me with some of his own movie questions.

his week’s guest is the brilliant Dr. B. Lee Aultman. B is an educator on LGBTQ studies and political science, author of the book The Trans Ordinary, and connoisseur of fine scotch. They also happen to be one of my favorite cousins (not that we play favorites in my family). We have a fun and enlightening conversation that I think really drives home the power of representation in mainstream entertainment.

My wife joins us this week! It was like a mini day-date for us to sit down and chat about movies on a random Thursday. Despite being together for over a decade, I still learned some new things about her. Happy to share those insights with you.

Those of you who followed the My Favorite F Words podcast will already be familiar with this week's guest, Lewis Giles. Gilly never fails to bring the surprises, and he has some doozies in response to our movie questions. Hell, he finds a way to mention Howard the Duck twice in this episode. That's reason enough for why you should check it out.

This week, we've got my ultra-talented brother in the hot seat. Whether it's performing stand-up comedy, taking drone photos, keeping T-Mobile in business or being a kickass dad, Chris is crushing it. You learn a lot about both of us in this episode, which makes sense because we grew up in the same house and are so close in age. It's as in-depth a look at the Turnage boys as you'll get. Enjoy!

The coolest people are born on May 16th - Danny Trejo, Janet Jackson, Pierce Brosnan, Megan Fox, me, and this week’s guest Anthony Della Calce. Among the many highlights of this episode is the revelation that Kindergarten Cop was an early source of childhood trauma for this eighth grade math teacher with an affinity for puns.

If you met Richie Amacio back in the day, you probably remember him as a guy who was just good at everything. An athlete, a scholar, universally liked, and the most extroverted (self-described) introvert in history. Fast forward to today, and he's still crushing it. Now he's a family man and a soccer coach, and he rocks an impossibly glorious head of hair that puts all three previous guests and the host to shame.

This week we check in with Tim Morgan Jr. Timmo is a postmaster, a Batman fanatic, and the self-described Culinary Gangster. We had some audio issues in the beginning and had to cut out about 10 minutes of conversation. No biggie. After a quick reset, we hit the ground running for an effortless hour that could have gone twice as long.

Few fictional bromances in can match my real one with Jeremie Halvorson - Jay and Silent Bob, Tango and Cash, Riggs and Murtaugh, Ricky Bobby and Cal Naughton Jr, Ace and Gary. My best friend for nearly 30 years, yet some of his movie choices still surprised me. Find out what two movies from Justin's episode last week carry over and what made Jerm afraid to sit on the toilet as a kid. And as mentioned in the show, please support the Blaine Halvorson Memorial Scholarship. This scholarship will be administered by the Rochester Area Foundation and will be awarded to a Kasson Mantorville student.

Our inaugural episode! I’m joined by the most film savvy person I know, Justin Velasquez. He also happens to be one of my closest friends. A movie critic, a Hokie, a foodie, a baller, and a sneaker head. From Godfather II to Orgazmo, this episode has a little of everything.
