Fauxworthy Podcast Episode 39: The Large Combo’s Actually Cheaper

December 25, 2016 /

 

It’s that time of year where we all pretend the movies are okay! Bryan and Taylor did some double duty this week to bring you talk of the latest and greatest from the cineplex.

They discuss the tension between the opening of “Nocturnal Animals” and the rest of the movie (8:40), Taylor’s favorite moment of seeing “Rogue One: A Star Wars Story” on opening night (19:10), and the surprising boldness and optimistic sadness of the film (21:15). Then they talk about some of their issues with the movie (28:05), praise the god Ben Mendelsohn (36:15) and break down the exciting new Hamilton Mixtape and Riz Ahmed’s very good year (43:00). Finally, Taylor and Bryan throw out a few movie recommendations (51:30).

Fauxworthy Podcast Episode 7: Is “Nathan” For You? “Fargo” Triumphantly Returns

April 18, 2016 /

 

Bryan Faux and Taylor Gaines are back again with a new episode. This week, they discuss Comedy Central’s “Nathan For You,” which just began it’s third season. And Bryan doesn’t really like it! They also talk about FX’s “Fargo,” which debuted its second season a couple weeks ago. Another fun ending, so we’ll fix that next time.

(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 seven.)

Original Recording Date: Oct. 20, 2015

Here’s the timeline:

“Nathan For You” 2:00-17:10 (with a brief “Undateable” interlude from 15:15-16:05)

“Fargo” 17:10-32:24

Grantland Update 32:24-34:13

“Star Wars” Trailer 34:13-41:20
