Antkind: A Novel (Featuring Kris Krainock) Aug 07, 2020

Show notes

On the 137th episode of Piecing It Together, we do something that we've never done before... Cover a book! But it's not that surprising that I'd want to talk about Charlie Kaufman's first novel on the show, considering he's the writer of my favorite movie Adaptation and a number of other films I love. Joining me is returning co-host Kris Krainock who did a great job of filling in the literary gaps with some puzzle pieces I'd have never been able to come up with unless I had another decade or two to read some more books... Did I mention I'm a slow reader?

Puzzle pieces include United 93, Gravity, The Dark Knight and Castaway.

Babyteeth (Featuring Daniel Berrios) Jul 10, 2020

Show notes

On the 134th episode of Piecing It Together, Daniel Berrios joins me to talk about one of the freshest, most excited debuts of 2020, Shannon Murphy's Babyteeth. While it fits pretty squarely in the "dying teen" sub-genre of coming-of-age movies, this is a special movie and definitely has something more to say about life. Puzzle pieces include Me and Earl and the Dying Girl, The Fault In Our Stars, The Virgin Suicides and Garden State.

Show notes

On this special episode of Piecing It Together, film-critic Josh Bell joins me to discuss our favorite movies of 2020… so far. It's been a very strange year for movies what with everything going on in the world, but as our conversation should prove, there's definitely no shortage of great ones.

The King Of Staten Island (Featuring JC Screen Fix) Jun 26, 2020

Show notes

On the 133rd episode of Piecing It Together, JC from Screen Fix Podcast joins me to talk about the latest Judd Apatow film, The King Of Staten Island, starring (and partially based on the life of) Pete Davidson, out now on VOD. A slight growth in the stoner, slacker man-child Apatow collection, it was a little tough to come up with puzzle pieces, but we had a great conversation anyway. Puzzle pieces include Say Anything, Knocked Up and Garden State.

Show notes

On the special mini-episode we follow-up Breaking It Apart 7, a discussion of the films inspired by the 1975 classic Jaws, with a short, fun conversation I had with my mom right after rewatching the film. Shark movies are some of her favorite movies. Those and bear movies. And #MBMMFM movies... Don't ask.

Breaking It Apart 7 – Jaws (Featuring Caitlin Kennedy) Jun 19, 2020

Show notes

On the 7th episode of the special episode series called Breaking It Apart, Caitlin Kennedy joins me for the 45th anniversary of the original summer blockbuster - Jaws.
