Story Brigade: Matinee

"4:10 to Albuquerque" (NOT BLAZING SADDLES - we already thought of that)

Enjoy this wild and weird ride as Connor and I record nearly our shortest episode yet. After all this time away it took a little bit to... get back in the saddle (I'll be here all week).

Some links to enjoy!

"City of Steam"

Woooooooooo it's been awhile!!! As we explain in the episode, Connor and I have been all over the place in the last couple of months which has kept us from making new episodes. You'll also probably notice that we're a little rusty this time around (which works great because... you know... steampunk... rusty... haha).

Here are some links to check out!

"Old Glass"

I know we say this all the time, but this is my favorite! Connor and I just wanted to take a couple of minutes and see what we could make and we put together a really, really cool film in half our normal time! So enjoy this fun-sized episode of the Story Brigade!

And go check out some John Carpenter films!

"Train Monsters"

Before you ask, no, we're not going to be doing three spins for every episode this season. I just got over excited about Cinerama as a spin that I didn't fully appreciate how it's really not a genre. But if you want to learn more about it, take a listen to this episode! I spend ten minutes diving into the history of it and boy, is it fascinating! And check out this episode if you want a real understanding of how we could possibly get to such a cool name as "Train Monsters".

And go watch HOW THE WEST WAS WON (1962)

And remember, no talking during the movie.

"Love is a Disaster"

Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaand WE'RE BACK!

Season 3 baby! Bet you didn't expect us to last this long! Heck, bet you expected us to run out of movie genres long ago! Nope! We're here to stay and we've got a whole bunch of crazy, exciting plans for season 3, so buckle up! The first thing being that for the time being, we're moving to one episode a week instead of two, which is more manageable for us, and more manageable for you!

Instead of a LIVE episode to start Season 3, we decided to do a CHARACTER episode, where we built a whole new character wheel to spin as well! It's pretty rad!

Thank you for joining us on this next phase of the STORY BRIGADE's adventure!

"Jade Hawk: A Star Wars Story"

Welcome back to the STORY BRIGADE! Connor and I are not officially back for SEASON 3 yet, but we had to do something for May the 4th! So please enjoy this weird, wacky, epic of a Story Brigade episode! Thank you Phil for joining us once again on the show and for telling us way more about Star Wars than we ever had to know.

(And yes I know we just did Heist a couple of episodes ago... I guess I forgot to remove it... whoops).

The second season of the STORY BRIGADE has officially come to a close! We hope you guys had as much fun listening to it as we did making it, what an adventure!

To close things out Connor and I answer some questions like - If you had an unlimited budget, which season 2 movie would you make? Which one would you prefer to see in theaters? Which movie is ripe for a sequel? What Blu-Ray featurettes would it have? Which is the most unloved episode of the season?

Hang tight everyone, and we'll see you on Season 3!

"Lady Dusk"

This is it! The dramatic plot-twist filled conclusion of Season 2 of the Story Brigade!!! Thank you to everyone who has listened over these past few months! We have so much fun making them and we hope you have some fun listening! And don't worry - we'll be back shortly with SEASON THREE!
