On this episode Wolf & Cub take a look at STEVE (martin) a Documentary in two pieces, which follows the life of Comedian and Actor Steve Martin. The doc was made in two distinct and stylistically different parts, the first exploring Martin's Stand-Up Comedy career and the second a more reflective piece looking back at his body of film work. As well as diving into the events of the film, we discuss filmmaking craft & share personal anecdotes. And don't forget, whenever a spoiler is coming you'll be warned by a wolf howl!

On this episode Wolf & Cub take a look at the first two seasons of Welcome to Wrexham available on Disney +. In 2020, Rob McElhenney and Ryan Reynolds teamed up to purchase the fifth tier Red Dragons in the hope of turning Wrexham AFC into an underdog story the whole world can root for, but the concern was that neither had any experience in football. From Hollywood to Wales, from the pitch to the locker room, and the front office to the pub, the docu-series tracks Rob and Ryan's crash course in football club ownership and the inextricably connected fates of a team and a town counting on two actors to bring some serious hope and change to a community that could use it.
