Shooting the Breeze with Luke!
We had a great conversation with Luke Jaconetti for our recent feedback episode, but much of what we talked about did not actually qualify as feedback. So consider this the deleted scences and expanded scenes from episode #10. Even more Anime, some Asterix, the Daredevil movie, Ultra-Man and Godzilla are all discussed ... in the Shortbox!
We would love to have your feedback on this episode! (if Luke can do it, you can, too!)

Quarter-Bin Podcast #010
Origin Story!
In this episode, I eschew the usual format and talk about how I got into podcasting. I say many nice things about many nice podcasts, most of whom I borrowed from liberally, almost none of which did I blatantly rip off. Well, not too much.

FEEDBACK (and a guest)!
Professor Alan and Emily sift through the loads of feedback they have received since their last feedback episode. And since much of that feedback came from Luke Jaconetti, they invited Luke (the host of a Godzilla podcast, the proprietor of a Hawkman-themed blog, and a co-host of a horror movie podcast) on to the show for a conversation. Superman, Scrooge McDuck, Anime vs Manga, Luke Cage and a pitch for an Unknown Soldier movie are all discussed ... in the Shortbox!
We would love to have your feedback on this episode! (if Luke can do it, you can, too!)
