Nicky Endres (@nickendres) is a non-binary transfeminine, genderqueer, and genderfluid actress who has to put up with these annoying heteronormative white boys. We discuss her upbringing in Wisconsin, her decision to move to LA, and the experiences she’s had in the years that she’s been here. Kanye is back on Twitter and literally no one but Trump is happy. Avengers: Infinity War came out and made a billion dollars - we spoil all the plot points for Nicky. Things aren’t going well in Will’s life. He hates change of any sort. And it is for that reason that Will and Sean will be making some changes to the podcast. :-o
Two more idiots on the internet discussing film and pop culture and anything else on their minds. They drag guests into their little circle of dysfunction. Trust me, it's good

Episode 285 - Traci Swartz - Philip Roth Turned 85 Today
Traci Swartz (@kickstand_show) is a storyteller and producer of the show “Kickstand.” She tells us how she ended up in Los Angeles and how she got involved in the scene. Sean opted to not attend the recent Lorde concert - does boycotting celebrities for their views or beliefs actually accomplish anything? Matt Smith got paid more money than Claire Foy for “The Crown.” We solve the Hollywood pay gap. How do you handle strangers who insist on having a conversation with you? When are we allowed to be rude to shut down an interloper? If your rainbow lasts longer than 4 hours, please consult a doctor.

Episode 284 - Becca Brown - Chicago Loves Dick
Becca Brown (@bekkuhbrown) is a child actress all grown up. She made her debut as the bassist in Richard Linklater’s “School of Rock,” and most recently she was seen in both the Chicago and LA production of the musical parody “Spamilton.” Everyone keeps telling us to get MoviePass, but is it legit, or just a big scam? “A Wrinkle in Time” came out last week. Do we have an beloved children’s books that we’d like to see given a proper adaptation? We all buy things from Amazon, but their delivery goons are just the worst. If you’re planning to travel to Taiwan, make sure to pack your own toilet paper.

Episode 282 - Sam Feirstein - This is of Interest to Nobody
Sam Feirstein returns for a loose, strange, and somewhat chaotic episode. We finally discuss Uma Thurman, QT, and the problem with macho auteur directors. The Winter Olympics finally ended - did we watch? Did we care? Some of our answers might surprise you. Will had to buy a new mattress and the results were…not good. Come for the interview, stay for the opinions.

She shares with us how a late in life decision to pursue acting opportunities brought her to where she is today. Two weeks late we give our thoughts on the Grammys that were. Toys R US is closing 500 locations so we reminisce on memories of walking those sacred aisles. The flu season is getting out of hand, and might soon kill us all.

Episode 278 - Megan Hayes and Justin Welborn - It's Timothy!
Megan Hayes (@megan_hayes) and Justin Welborn (@revolution23) are both actors but, more importantly, returning champions to our show. We finally get around to talking about Aziz Ansari because Sean refused to discuss it unless there was a female guest on. Will has recently revisited Murphy Brown - what shows or pop culture would we revisit if we had the time? Things are getting out of hand over at Netflix and we can’t take it any more.

Episode 277 - Best Films of 2017
For the first time in podcast history Will and Sean hijack the first episode of the year to indulgently go over their Top Ten Movies of 2017. There's not much more to it than that. Bit still, give it a listen, won't you? You won't, won't you.

Go hug a loved one, the fight is just beginning.

Episode 275 - Laura McGhee - I Even Blocked Porg
Laura McGhee (@LauraMcGhee68) is a pilot, writer, actress, and comedian. That’s right, a pilot, like for airplanes. She writes and stars in the hilarious web series called “Lady Pilot,” based on her ridiculous experiences as a flight instructor. LA Weekly got bought by a right-wing consortium and now they are trying to get people to write for them for free. Quentin Tarantino is boldly going where no man has gone before - and he’s taking JJ with him. Tis the season to be pressured into purchasing unwanted chocolate bars by the adorable children of your co-workers. Waffle House is now a DIY institution, at least for some people it would seem.

Episode 274 - Minimus Maximus - Counterpart
Minimus Maximus (2minimusmaximus) of the “Off the Cuffs” podcast talks about kink, BDSM, and growing up in a cult. Make sure you’re listening to the show…we’lll wait. Another day, another 5-10 creepy men getting exposed (tee tee) by the news. There are too many goddamn podcasts out there, how are we managing? “Coco” is a great new film by PIXAR, but the Olaf “short” beforehand is an abominable snowman.

Alyssa Sabo (@alyssa_sabo) rollerblades her way back into our lives with her truly unique style of absurdist comedy. Louis CK’s long known peccadilloes are finally exposed to the wider world. The iPhone X is finally exposed to the wider world. Twitter - the most perfect social media platform ever devised - has made itself (impossible to imagine) even more perfect with the expansion to 280 characters. Let the healing of the universe begin, one bloated tweet at a time.

Episode 272 - Ian Alda - You Don't Just Diddle a Child Once
Ian Alda (@ianalda) returns to the show. He recently directed a webseries called “The Michaels.” We also talk Dodgers and the continuing Hollywood sexual abuse allegations - so, just sunniness all around. Do we really need all these “pop-up” restaurants and “experiences?” Short answer, nope.
