Once more doomsaying co-host Will (6'2) introduces Connor to a brand new nightmare to keep him up at night: the coming decimation of art as a career at any level other than the highest peaks of the industry. Fortunately, the TallBoyz may be just altitudinous to keep up -- but we'll see!

The TallBoyz attempt to dissect what makes for an excellent adaptation (not to be confused with the already excellent Adaptation by Charlie Kaufman).

Just a couple'a TallBoyz tallkin' funnybooks. Garth Ennis and Neil Gaiman feature prominently. Have you read any Garth Ennis? You should really be reading more Garth Ennis. Preacher is the absolute bee's knees.

After (the last foreseeable) extended hiatus, the TallBoyz are BACK with more bemoaning from the mountaintop as they scan the horizons of business and entertainment & make it all about them 🤗

This week hosts Will (6'2) and Connor (6'4) attempt to understand and explain the difference between a television show's point of view, and the POVs of the characters within that show. A subtle, some* would say frivolous, distinction helpfully explicated by the TallBoyz, so crack open the latest podcast. It's lit, fam 🔥

* Idiots.

After our long, unheralded break, the TallBoyz are back for a saccharine journey of indulgent navel-gazing, as host Connor (6'4) takes co-host Will (6'2) through his list of "Top 10 Most Influential [on his writing] Movies of All Time".

Episodes should be more regular from this point forward :)

Connor (6'4) and Will (6'2) recount their first encounters with R-rated cinema, the pinnacle of movie ratings that you might be open to watching with your parents!

Connor (6'4) takes co-host Will (6'2) through his process for designing, building, and running his ongoing DnD podcast Crit or Miss. Connor's lectures are much more fun.

Host Will (6'2) finally makes good on his threats and regales co-host Connor (6'4) with his unassailably accurate takes on Objectivism, its ancestors, and the modern-day descendants (aka "the good time ruiners", "jagoffs", etc). 

In doing so he manages to mangle a wide assortment of references, particularly confusing Aristotle for Socrates (pronounced "So, crates?"), but eagle-eared listeners are welcome to lambast him online for the rest at @willmckim!

Meanwhile Connor's grace in the face of unwarranted vitriol remains boundless.
