April 16, 2016 /

 

It’s a new week — hell, a new month even! And that means it’s time for a new edition of the Fauxworthy podcast!

This week, Bryan and I discuss HBO’s “Project Greenlight” and our views on reality television as well as Matt Damon’s recent journey into the media maelstrom that is the Internet in 2015. We also discuss “Empire,” which might be my new favorite thing that exists even though I have only seen one episode.

Here’s the timeline:

“Project Greenlight”/Reality Television/Matt Damon Controversy 00:00-35:25

“Empire” 35:25-42:34

“Hidden In Plain View” Teaser 42:34-44:30

Fauxworthy Podcast Episode 4: Thoughts on the Emmy Awards

April 16, 2016 /

 

This week, Bryan Faux and Taylor Gaines discuss their takeaways from the 67th Emmy Awards and try to decide if any of it really mattered. Then, Taylor works in a shameless plug, and Bryan raves about a new hit musical named “Hamilton.”

(The episode number that Bryan says at the beginning will slightly differ for the first seven or so episodes because Bryan initially had more of a general media podcast. As far as the Fauxworthy TV Podcast goes, this is number four.)

Original Recording Date: Sep. 22, 2015

Here’s this week’s timeline:

Emmy’s 00:00-28:25

Shameless Plug for “Hidden In Plain View” 28:25-29:45

Bryan Raves About “Hamilton” 29:45-38:35
