NEW PODCAST ALERT!

In Blank Meets Blank we invent a new TV show every episode, starting with two random hat drawings and ending with a pilot, a first season summary and a fantasy cast. This is something we’ve been working on behind the scenes for a while (eagle-eared listeners will note references in this pilot to cement this fact) and we’re really glad to finally share the first episode!

If you enjoy this new podcast, please subscribe to our feed for Blank Meets Blank and leave a review on Apple Podcasts. We’ll be releasing season 1 of Blank Meets Blank, consisting of 6 – 10 episodes, and then take a break to evaluate and possibly record season 2. If you want this show to stick around, let us know with a review!

Stranger Things 3 was only a little over a month ago, but it might as well have been 1,000 years ago but let’s take advantage of this 1,000 year hindsight and go over some general thoughts and nitpicks on the 3rd outing and where we think things just might go!
