While we are still being encouraged to social distance and stay at home, we continue our Social Distancing Sessions! We’ve been trying to keep it upbeat for the most part, so we figured since Just Friends is celebrating a 15th year Anniversary and currently on Netflix, it would be a fun one to chat about!

We brought in one of our favorite recurring guests in @benny_elledge and making her AI Debut is fellow Broadway Actor, Stephanie Torns @Tornsy18! Lots of laughs were shared while breaking down this film and we got to hear what these actors felt about the performances they saw in Just Friends.

This episode ends with a fun Imitation Game and our Patrons get to hear us draft our Top 5 Favorite Films Where The Main Character Returns To Their Hometown.

We hope you’re all staying healthy and safe during the complete mess that is 2020 and hope you’re enjoying listening to our show!

Enjoy!

It’s the 10th Anniversary of the Fincher/Sorkin classic and we had to bring in a couple film aficionados to express why this film is so good, so we brought in Seggie Isho and a newbie to the pod, Luke Pierce.

We had such a great time breaking down this film with these two. We’ve decided they both have to come back on together because it was such a blast.

This episode ends with us playing a very fun Imitation Game and our Patrons get to hear us draft our Top 5 MySpace Movie Friend List.

Just to be clear, this was recorded before the tragic events in Minneapolis and that is why it isn’t mentioned at all.

We return with another Social Distancing Session and brought back one of Rob’s best friends, Timmy St. Sauver, to talk about the Rom-Com She’s Out Of My League that is currently streaming on Netflix.

Had a blast taking our minds off of the craziness in the world and breaking down this hilarious film. Timmy’s always got the hot takes, so it was fun to bring him back.

We end the episode with an Imitation Game and our Patrons get to hear us draft our Top 5 Favorite Movie Friend Groups.

If you haven’t heard, we are committed to helping out the city we love and will be donating the month of June’s Patreon funds to We Love Lake Street. Feel free to join us on www.patreon.com/theavidindoorsmen or donate directly to www.welovelakestreet.com.

We hope you’re all doing well and staying safe. Enjoy!

We agreed to embark on the quest of talking about the most recent Pixar film, Onward, and we needed 3 brave souls to accompany us. We couldn’t find any so we asked some of Rob’s Home Free Fam to come back to the pod.

Jenika Marion, Abe Sword and Adam Rupp heard we were gonna be chatting about Onward and they all volunteered to virtually hang out with us. And spoiler alert, we actually have Adam’s audio this time!

We had a blast breaking down this film with them. Then we had even more fun playing our Imitation Game with them. And the good times concluded with us drafting our Top 5 Favorite Movie Vehicles with them!

Hope you all had a great Memorial Day weekend and you continue to stay safe and healthy through these crazy times. And we hope you’re enjoying these Social Distancing Sessions!

Our name is The Avid Indoorsmen. You’ve heard our podcast. Prepare to enjoy yourself!

Our good buddy @PeterHollens wanted to come on the podcast and he optioned for us to talk about The Princess Bride which took absolutely no convincing whatsoever. We’re so happy he chose this and it has recently been added to Disney + if you’re looking for something fun to watch while social distancing!

Before we chat with Peter we start this episode discussing the last movies we’ve watched, what we’ve been streaming and our favorite quarantine meals.

Had such a fun time reminiscing about how much we loved this film as kids and breaking down how wonderful it is and how it still holds up!

We end this episode playing a movie game called Taglines and our Patrons get to hear us draft our Top 5 Favorite Films Featuring Pro Wrestlers!

Hope you’re all staying safe and healthy out there and enjoying these social distancing sessions!

We have been having a blast with these Movie Game Nights and this episode is no exception. We brought in our good buddies and fellow Minneapolis musicians Max Felsheim and Dan Ristrom to keep the hilarious game night streak alive. A new game was introduced and we brought back two more that were so much fun. There were many laughs had in this one, we hope you’re enjoying the extra content!

Another amazing movie that is available to watch on Netflix while you’re stuck at home is the mind-blowing 1999 film, The Matrix. We found a couple of buddies who love this movie even more than we do, @Heatboxllc and @Patrickmpls.

Before we chat with Box and Pat, we discuss the last movie we’ve seen, what we’re streaming and our favorite quarantine meals.

Heatbox has been on our show a few times now and making his AI debut is Minneapolis-based musician/old college buddy/old roommate Pat Nelson. We love these fellas and so glad we got to chat with them and break down The Matrix.

We end the show with a game of Last Man Stanton and our Patrons get to hear us draft our Top 5 Favorite Films That Blew Our Minds.

We hope you’re all enjoying these Social Distancing Sessions and staying healthy and safe at home!

Such a great time playing some games and catching up with friends. We hope you’re all enjoying the extra content and staying safe out there!

Another Social Distancing Session is upon us and we put a twist on it, which is very appropriate considering the film we discussed, Knives Out is the first film we’ve done an SDS episode on that is not on Netflix. We felt this film was worth spending the extra money to rent because of how great it is.

Knives Out gives a modern take on the classic Whodunit genre and it’s the first of these films we’ve ever done. Since we are debuting a new genre, we thought we should bring in a couple new guests, so making their Avid Indoorsmen debut are Austin Brown and Cash Campbell!

Before we talk to those guys we discuss the last movies we’ve seen, what we’re streaming and what we’ve been eating.

We got pretty chatty in this one and told a lot of stories while breaking down Knives Out. It was a really fun time talking to these guys and hope you found it as entertaining as we did!

This episode ends with an interesting Imitation Game and a really fun Top 5 Worst Movie Family Draft.

We hope you’re all staying safe and healthy during this crazy time and enjoying these Social Distancing Sessions!

This is our 4th movie game night and we brought back Tim Foust who’s been on several of these and even made up a new game for us to play! His much better half Jenika Marion made her movie game night debut but has been on the pod several times and she is a DELIGHT! Jeffrey East made his Avid Indoorsmen debut and was too much fun. We briefly got to hang with Abe Sword who has been on the pod before but due to technical difficulties we lost him before the games started.

We played 3 different movie games, two of which we’ve played before and Tim gave us a super fun new one that we will definitely be stealing from him!

Hope you guys enjoy this extra content and are staying healthy and safe during this craziness!
