A show about why we love what we watch, why we’re crazy about a movie or nuts about a show. Hosted by @taydadams.

POSTS STORIES REELS TAGGED

Some stories don’t just stay with you. They grow with you.

@rainbennett has watched Lonesome Dove every four or five years since he was a kid, and every single time it hits differently. Not because the show changes, but because he does. And shares he it with those close to him along the way.

Rain and I talk about why Lonesome Dove might be the greatest character study in television history, what Augustus McCrae teaches us about friendship and loyalty, and why a six hour Western about two old cowboys driving cattle to Montana still makes grown adults sob like babies in 2026.

We also get into America’s obsession with westward expansion, what Larry McMurtry understood about storytelling that most writers never figure out, and why the stories we watch with our families end up becoming part of our own story.

New episode out now! Link in bio.

👻It’s almost Spooky SZN, so watching @blake.kinsey talk about #Supernatural, his horror filmmaking roots and how he moved into more dramatic territory is absolutely the treat you need!

Thanks again to Blake for chatting with me! Peep the episode at links in bio.

What’s the scariest human in cinema?

Forget xenomorphs, creatures from the deep or radiation-charged giant lizards; sometimes people are the scariest thing. At least, their form is.

@blake.kinsey has spent his career focusing on human-centric stories, but knows that there can be darkness lurking around every corner😆

The scariest things in Supernatural were never monsters. It was the idea of losing your brother.

Filmmaker @blake.kinsey watched Sam and Dean Winchester hunt otherworldly beings for 15 seasons, but for him it was all about the family at the core of this CW procedural…

Even if the last ten seasons didn’t quite do it for him😅. Check out more on the latest Film Nuts! Links in bio.

Inspiration comes from anywhere.

What sparks a filmmaking journey? For me? Dumb laughs. For @matfaundez, it was LOTR. He was clearly onto something.

Who’s seeing @a24’s @tonymovie this week?

To help us remember Anthony Bourdain, I asked
@justincookphoto to name famous Bourdain quotes! Not a bad score, overall.

On Wednesdays we wear cloaks.

@matfaundez and I participated in mild cosplay while chatting about the magic that is The Lord of the Rings trilogy, philosophy we learn from Gandalf, and the high art of creating content about toilets…among other things.

Movie fans love it for the story. Filmmakers love it for everything else.

Three films. Each almost four hours long. One cohesive story built with a level of intention you just don’t see anymore. Hand-stitched chain mail. Practical effects. A world so detailed it pulls you in whether you know anything about cinema or not.

That’s what separates The Lord of the Rings from everything else. At least accordingly to @matfaundez 🧙‍♂️

New Film Nuts on the extended cut of the LOTR trilogy out now! Links in bio.

Why is journalism misunderstood?

With shouts of “fake news” being treated as repellant for unpopular press coverage, @justincookphoto articulates his vision of journalism so succinctly. I attempt to also sound smart about my work in documentaries😅

Here more about Justin and his work by checking out our most recent episode covering Anthony Bourdain: Parts Unknown. by @filmnutspodcast

Hash browns, journalism, and making fun of authoritarians. Some things are better enjoyed in-person.

ICYMI, I sat down with @justincookphoto to chat about Anthony Bourdain: Parts Unknown. Full ep in bio.

What does your @wafflehouseofficial order say about you?

Sean Brock took Anthony Bourdain to Waffle House and he said it was better than The French Laundry. A pecan waffle drowning in syrup hits different when a James Beard Award winning chef is hyping it up next to you.

For @justincookphoto, the warm, glowing beacon of late-night hope makes him proud of his Southern roots. And no matter how you like your hash browns, you are welcome here.
