The Missing Movie Club
By The Missing Movie Club
Chris, Jason, John, and Pamela have had way too many conversations that sound like “SERIOUSLY, you’ve NEVER seen that movie? Wow, but it’s so good! Hey, we should watch it together sometime!” The problem is that those conversations never actually led to them watching the movies being recommended.
That’s why they formed the Missing Movie Club, as a creative space where these four friends can watch and discuss the movies some of them somehow tragically missed.

Grab some rhino tranqs, a couple of puppets, and your best nun costume and join us on the yacht for our latest meeting as we discuss The Last of Sheila (1973) starring James Coburn, Dyan Cannon, Raquel Welch, James Mason, and more. Additional topics covered include: Joseph of Arimathea, the perfect person to play Dolly Parton in a biopic, and why Jason should probably never be given a gavel or a soundboard.

One clarification: When Pamela said "Red Shoes" is her most loathed Christmas song, she actually meant the song "The Christmas Shoes." If you've never heard Patton Oswalt's brilliant breakdown of the song, it's definitely worth a listen (VERY NSFW): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iq10bz3PxyY

Well, he doesn't have another podcast, but you could maybe read his short story, "Walking Down" that was recently published in the Baltimore Review. There's even audio of him reading it on the same page as the story, and that's sort of like a podcast, we guess.
