Natural Born Casters

This week, Tyler and Dylan give the audience some of our personal favorite albums, so they can get to know our tastes. This one is a bit different from our usual top 5 episodes, as these aren't necessarily our favorites, or even the best from the artists we picked. These albums helped shape our musical tastes, get us through rough times, and discover new genres.

We highly recommend all the albums we list. To us, they are all considered "no skips", meaning you can listen to the albums all the way through, without skipping a single track!

WE GOT THE STUDIO WORKIN!!!

The audio may sound a lil funky, but we're working on it. We are officially moved into the studio, but it still needs some soundproofing and audio wizardry.

This episode we discuss the 2022 movie Babylon, and Vulfpeck's 2015 debut album "Thrill of the Arts"

WE AINT FROM TEXAS, but you will enjoy hearing us break down Bethany's favorite movie of 2024 (so far), Lisa Frankenstein, and BigXthaPlug's new album "Meet The 6ixers".

We need recommendations! We're always asking the fans for music and movie recs, what would you like us to review? Give us some music! What genre would you like us to explore? Thanks for being a part of this with us!

Tyler and Dylan get together FOR THE FIRST TIME IN A MONTH, and discuss the Nic Cage movie Dream Scenario, and Childish Gambino's new album Atavista.

BIG NEWS, DYLAN MAY BE GETTING A DAYSHIFT JOB?!

What does that mean? Why does that matter for the podcast? THAT MEANS WE CAN RECORD MORE EPISODES FOR YA. That means more content. That means different types of episodes. The sky is the limit yall, and we need your help to get us there!

As always, thanks for listening!!!

Dylan worked a lot of hours this week, so instead of making Tyler drive an hour to record two weeks in a row, we decided to let Tori take a crack at an episode. SO WE MADE HER WATCH STARSHIP TROOPERS! Then we discuss our top 4 songs for America to celebrate the 4th of July!

Lots of laughs, lots of love, and lots of nostalgia on this episode. Let us know what yall think about having guests on!

In this episode, if you don't already know, you'll learn why Dylan is an idiot and is only here for comic relief....

I won't spoil the ending, just remember that WE ACKNOWLEDGE HE'S A DUMMY!

In no particular order, except for our #1 pick, we list our personal top 5 favorite Pixar movies. We also discuss directors, actors, and musicians involved in the making of these absolute HITS.

Thanks for listening!

ITS A WHOLE EPISODE DEDICATED TO GODZILLA MINUS ONE! Featuring one of our good friends, and hopefully a future member of the Natural Born Casters lineup, the homie Steven! We were also going to review an album, but we got a bit carried away and ran a little long.

Steven will hopefully be joining us permanently once we finish work on the studio, to be our producer. He told us "I'm willing to learn anything you're willing to teach me" so hopefully I'm a good teacher and we can continue to provide the excellent audio quality we strive for!

Remember when the WWE decided to make movies for some reason? Remember when they tried to convince us John Cena was an actor?

Unfortunately, we remember. Shout out to the homie Cameron for recommending this week's movie "The Condemned" starring Stone Cold Steve Austin, and Vinnie Jones. The 2007 action film written and directed by Scott Wiper (awful name) features a "battle royale" style death match between 10 convicts fighting for their freedom from death row and "a pocket full of cash".

We also reviewed Bring Me The Horizon's new album

OK, so I know we were gonna do a T Swift album, but HEAR ME OUT.... Its difficult getting adult's schedules to align. WE'RE BUSY YALLLLL

BUT, we didn't want to leave yall hanging, so we decided to hit ya with a wrestling themed episode! We watched the 2023 EMOTIONAL ROLLER COASTER The Iron Claw. A TRAGEDY, based on the true events of the Von Erich wrestling family.

Keeping the wrestling theme for the episode, Dylan chose the album by the WWE (and various artists) Wreckless Intent. Featuring the intro music from some of your favorite wrestlers of the early 2000's.

Ladies, gentlemen, and everyone in between, this week we review a movie STILL IN THEATERS! Starring Kirsten Dunst, Wagner Moura, Cailee Spaeny, and Nick Offerman as the president. Set in an alternate universe, the movie follows an aging journalist and her partner through several events of a second American civil war.

If you're looking for something action packed, or something that plays off current American politics, this movie won't be for you. Alex Garland does a great job creating his own world playing it right down the middle, instead of making a statement or choosing a side. While there are a few very well done action scenes, this movie is more of a drama than an action flick.

Tyler picked the album this week and he (again) is living out his "gen z hot girl" dreams. We review the pop album "The Rise and Fall of a Midwest Princess" by Chappell Roan. You know how Dylan is. It took him a few tries, but eventually he came around.
