The podcast is going on hiatus while Conor performs Footloose on a cruise. Vince and Conor follow up their casual game of Would You Rather to celebrate his new gig.

Make sure to follow Once Removed so you'll be notified when we return!

Since Vince has been dying to talk about last year's best movies, Conor caught up to discuss some Oscar contenders. Does Everything Everywhere resonate with all generations? Does The Whale feel more like an on-screen play than Women Talking?

Conor and Vince break the sanctity of the Enneagram by taking it together.

The cousins invite Vince's Marvel Studios co-worker Alex to discuss his experiences being a PA, directing a short film, and writing a feature. How does anyone balance the industry grind with individual pursuits? What qualities help you gain connections and find work? Plus, hear why proud New Yorker Alex prefers LA's work environment (even if he does love NY drivers more).

Make sure to check out Exposure, written & directed by Alex Tomeo.

Conor and Vince attempt to discuss a topic they rarely relate over. Did they ever play sports growing up, or did they just play action figures? Have they ever cared or followed teams? When does athletics provide them the same narrative satisfaction as movies?

They're back at it again: playing 20 questions their way.

Conor and Vince discuss resolutions in the New Year: should they make any? Are there good and bad goals to set? The cousins open up, praise the Enneagram test, and muse about pants vs. shorts.

Happy 2023! Visit us over at our website.

We're wrapping up 2022 with a follow-up to our Harry Potter episode. Has a recent viewing changed Conor's nostalgia-based opinions? Also, Vince is interested in discussing hopes and dreams for Gunn & Safran's new DC film slate.

Thanks for your support in getting Once Removed to 1,000 downloads!

Conor grew up on Harry Potter, and Vince just watched the series for the first time. How do their nostalgia and fresh opinions compare?

Vince shares his tested advice on becoming an author during your college years or younger. Originally intended as a video series, this scripted episode covers 5 major topics: 1.) Writing your book, 2.) balancing writing with school, 3.) stigma against inexperience, 4.) lack of university support & publishing method alternatives, and 5.) author life post-publishing.
