Shane Talks

In this first episode of a new miniseries of podcasts, Shane M. White looks back weekly at the films that were released in 1999.  This week, Shane takes quick looks at the releases of "Virus", "At First Sight", and "In Dreams" before getting to the Main Attraction: "Varsity Blues".  Shane looks at the young cast, and the themes of the teenage sports drama/comedy.

Shane and Jason return for their first episode of the new year.  The guys discuss five New Year's Resolutions they have for the podcast in 2022.  Then they spend a lot of time talking about their excitement for watching "Scream 5" this week.  Finally, they dive into the list of theatrical releases coming up and talk about their levels of excitement for them.

As the year comes to an end, Shane and Jason get together to talk about some of their favorite things from 2021.  Lightsabers and books are discussed, as well as ranking the Marvel Disney+ Shows, some quick talk about tv shows that Shane watched, and finally discussing Top Five Film Lists for the year.

It's the holiday season, which means there's a lot of different traditions going on. Shane and Jason discuss their own family traditions including Shane Days and Holiday Concerts. Then they take a look at some of the answers given on the community poll.

Shane and Jason are joined this week by Troy Myers, who brings his own John Bender Chaos into the discussion of the film works by John Hughes. The guys discuss the eight films he directed, as well as the countless number of films that he wrote. The good, the great, and the lackluster all get covered. There are tangents about Halloween and running marathons, as well as a lengthy discussion about the current state of cinema, and the regurgitated content that keeps getting released in theatres.

It’s that time of the year again, Halloween Season. Which means SCARY movies! Jason L. Maier and Shane bamboozled their favorite guest host to come on the show, so the guys could talk to him about all the movies he has been watching recently. The three of them end the episode with a pretty lengthy discussion of the film “Halloween Kills” and discussing what did and didn’t work for them in this latest Michael Myers adventure.

This week, Jason kicks Shane off the show and takes over. Jason brings on three people from his musical theatre background and asks them modified versions of the Horowitz Questionnaire. They discuss their favorite musicals, songs, and performers, while also voicing their opinions of some of the worst performers they wish had never been cast in shows.

We are celebrating our Golden Anniversary of fifty episodes, by hosting a dinner party. First, a Community Poll was put up online, asking for people to pick three fictional characters that they would like to have over for a dinner party. Next, Jason and Shane invited two of their favorite guests back onto the show, to look over the community answers, and discuss them. The guys all wrap up their dinner party with a random discussion the eventually descends into a discussion of 90s High School drama television.
