  • S01 E10 Is This the Real Life?

    Documentaries. What are they? Where do they come from? How are they made? And how do they end up on the shelf at your local store? The guys barely scratch the surface on this informative format of film. Things get a little nerdy (more so than usual) when some actual film history and theory gets injected into the conversation. Please have your pencils and notepads ready. There will be a test afterwards on such films as Nanook of the North, Rock-a-Fire Explosion, Bowling for Columbine, Gimme Shelter, and others.
