Never Say Die!

It's Inter-MISSION time: Drew and Rafe are back with our Widows Inter-MISSION to finally put a button on this film's discussion! They talk about things they missed the first time around with Widows and stat their draft characters, talk about films they wish they had merchandise for, maybe hit on a game they want to develop, and announce the next Heist movie they'll be taking on. In

2018's Widows marks a departure from the other heist films we've looked at so far and marks the first time we've explored the heist as a dramatic film instead of an action/comedy piece. This month we look at a second group of unskilled heist specialists, much like Bottle Rocket, but in a far more dramatic fashion and with much bigger stakes. Please let us know what you think about

It's Inter-MISSION time: Drew and Rafe are back with our longest Inter-MISSION yet! They talk about things they missed the first time around with Bottle Rocket and stat their draft characters, go over a tidal wave of listener responses, talk about directorial debuts, and announce the next Heist movie they'll be taking on.

So far, every heist we've looked at this season has been accomplished thanks to the efforts of a highly-qualified team of specialists. This month we're looking at a subgenre of Heist films that undermines that resolution: the incompetent criminals. We talk about Wes Anderson's debut film, 1996's Bottle Rocket, featuring Owen and Luke Wilson as part of a criminal team with bigger am

It's Inter-MISSION time! Drew and Rafe are back to talk about Sneakers and things they might have missed the first time around.

Rafe and Drew talk about this iconic 1992 heist film, complete with an excellent plot and a star-studded cast. Listen as Rafe dislikes baseball movies, Drew torments himself with his draft selection, and the duo rave about one of their favorite movies, which hold

It's Inter-MISSION time! Drew and Rafe are back to look at Fast Five and things they might have missed the first time around (which isn't much). They discuss the new Doctor Who, respond to listener feedback, stat their Fast Five characters, give their prison break situations from the podcast homework, and announce the next Heist movie they'll be taking on. Interact with the show on

Next up in our Heist season is the fast cars and physics-free Fast Five, which marks the first time one of our movie selections may have actually broken one of our heists. Listen as Rafe and Drew discuss what makes a good "stupid" movie, ramble about the movie's flaws, and come up with a gamification that sounds really similar to something we've done in the past. We hope you laugh

It's Inter-MISSION time! Drew and Rafe are back to look at Rogue One: A Star Wars Story and things they might have missed the first time around. They discuss some of Rafe's Star Wars inspired ideas for D&D, stat their Rogue One characters, give their ideal break-in locations from the podcast homework, and announce the next Heist movie they'll be taking on. Interact with the sho

We started our season at the apex of the Heist movie genre, so now we're trying something a little less traditional: Rogue One: A Star Wars Story. We talk about the benefits of less-traditional heist films like this one, discuss the toxic fanbase surrounding the franchise, and explore the benefits of building a game that will absolutely end in a total party kill. Don't lose hope th
