Description
Schmile, listener! This week we're pointing our viewfinders at Paul Schrader's sleazy 2002 Bob Crane biopic AUTO FOCUS with writer and co-host of the Doughboys and Get Played podcasts, Nick Wiger! Join us for a discussion of fame, destructive sexual obsession, smoldering male violence, Willem Dafoe - you know, all the usual Schrader stuff. Plus: we talk the Minions, Tyga bites, and how Bob Crane would have been a podcaster. Also if you're related to either of the hosts of the show, maybe don't listen to this one. For everyone else: great ep, please enjoy!

Well, we've reached the end of our Paul Schrader retrospective - for a couple weeks until OH, CANADA comes out - and it's time to discuss our findings. What did we learn about Schrader? About film? About podcasting? About ourselves? Can we remember all the different ways we got sick and hurt...

As a little bonus, we talked some more MASTER GARDENER with Jake's old friend and professional New Orleans gardener Bob Martin! Lots of technical gardening chat, native NOLA plants, gardening movies, and some commiseration between friends of Jake that he very quickly shuts down.
Enjoy!
