The Debatable Podcast

BONUS EPISODE!!!!

Good friend, JOSH EISENBERG, joins me for a detour-filled & sometimes awkwardly hilarious talk. Along for the ride is his friend Marjory. We chat about karaoke etiquette and Josh's recent, less-than-wonderful mingling with Millennials in New York City. We come to a conclusion: the art of good conversation is dead! ...or is it? Special appearance from Fernando Madrigal. Enjoy!

Good friends, ROB & LAURA THORP, join me to talk about marriage and children, and why those things don't work for everyone. Along the way, we explore how they are diverting society's expectations as a young married couple, how they define "family" in the face of tradition and religion, and why they don't necessarily see themselves having kids in the future...and how they're perfectly fine with that. We get deep and philosophical. This one is full of great advice for those feeling like there's too much pressure to fit in when it comes to adulthood. ONE OF MY FAVORITE SHOWS WE'VE DONE. Enjoy!

Dan Tayag reviews the "24: Live Another Day" Season Premiere.

TASHA ROBINSON, film critic at The Dissolve, and formerly of The A.V. Club, joins me to talk about the road that led to her becoming one of the best in the industry. During our talk, we also touch on Bob Hoskins' passing, the Star Wars Episode 7 casting announcement, Tasha's VHS film education, the odd jobs she had just out of college, publication editing, aggregate scoring with Metacritic and Rotten Tomatoes, misogyny and trolling on comment boards (with focus on Anita Sarkeesian and "Feminist Frequency"), the state of women in film, Paul Greengrass' "Captain Phillips," what is wrong (and right) with her colleague, Scott Tobias, and we end on her coverage of the Tribeca Film Festival 2014. It's a jam-packed conversation, and I know you'll have a great time listening!

Podcaster KEITH BODAYLA joins me on the show for a great conversation about what defines "manliness" in geek chic culture, and specifically what seems to emasculate the community the most: sports. It's a fun chat on sports nerdity vs. film/gaming nerdity. We also touch on fight clubs in Keith's college years, and how he got into podcasting. Had such a good time! Enjoy!
