On this special episode of Piecing It Together, returning co-host Ryan Daugherty and I get into the Godzilla: King of the Monsters spirit by discussing our Top 10 Favorite Movie Monsters!

Puzzle pi...

On the 61st episode of Piecing It Together, Bee Garner from Filmotomy and JumpCut Online joins me to talk about the polarizing Under The Silver Lake. After an iffy premiere at Cannes, distributor A24 got cold feet, allowing it to leak online, then delaying it over and over until David Robert Mitchell's follow-up to It Follows was dumped to VOD. Which sucks. Because it's a cult classic in the makin...

On this special episode we follow up Episode 60's conversation about To Dust with an interview with the film's writer/director Shawn Snyder. To Dust is Shawn's first feature and won the Audience Award at the 2018 Tribeca Film Festival.

On the 59th episode of Piecing It Together, it's time for a SUPER-EPISODE! As we did with its predecessor, Avengers Infinity War , Avengers Endgame is a movie too big for just one co-host.

On the 57th episode of Piecing It Together, returning co-host David Quinones and I discuss Childish Gambino's 50 minute semi-feature Guava Island, which debuted on Amazon Prime during his Coachella set. Part film, part music video collection, it's a unique vision, as we should all expect from the team behind Atlanta and Childish Gambino's "This Is America" music video. Puzzle pieces include Lemona...

On the 55th episode of Piecing It Together, Joe Black joins me to discuss Harmony Korine's latest piece of cinematic insanity, The Beach Bum, starring Matthew McConaughey, Isla Fisher and Snoop Dogg.

Puzzle pieces include Arthur, Freddy Got Fingered, Tropic Thunder and Young...

On the 54th episode of Piecing It Together, Kris Krainock joins me to talk about Gaspar Noe's head-trip of an experience, Climax.

Jordan and Sylvester Stallone, Creed 2 wraps up many of the story threads that have run through the Rocky and Creed series in an effective way. Puzzle pieces include S...

On the 50th episode of Piecing It Together, Josh Bell joins me again for Overlord, one of this month's long-lost episodes. OK it's not that late as it only hit VOD a couple weeks ago, but the JJ Abrams produced Nazi-zombie action film which was once rumored to possibly be a Cloverfield movie is one we recorded this episode for back in November and I'm excited to finally release it. Puzzle pieces i...

On the 49th episode of Piecing It Together, returning co-host David Quinones and I discuss The Standoff at Sparrow Creek. We don't normally do a lot of VOD-only movies on the podcast, but I was in Miami visiting Q for a live episode of our other podcast Bird Road and we watched this movie and figured we'd do a quick episode on his new RodeCaster Pro. Puzzle pieces include Reservoir Dogs, Killing Z...

On the 48th episode of Piecing It Together, returning co-host Josh Bell and I discuss Happy Death Day 2 U, the perfectly titled sequel to the surprise Blumhouse hit, Happy Death Day.

Puzzle pieces include Aliens, Gro...

On this special episode of Piecing It Together, Kris Krainock joins me to discuss our predictions, as well as our picks and movies we think were left out of this year's Oscar Nominations. For the sake of time we only did 9 categories (which kind of makes us worse than the Academy themselves who were planning on not showing all the categories on the air this year)... But we're only doing this episo...

On the 5th episode of the special episode series called Breaking It Apart, two members of the Las Vegas band Black Camaro, TG Miller and returning guest Brian Garth join me to discuss the 1939 classic The Wizard of Oz starring Judy Garland.
