The (Second) Worst Marathon Ever Episode 02


We're doing a marathon, detailing the "Pixar Rules of Storytelling."


It might not be exactly daily, despite what 2015 Rish 'n Big imagined.  But we'll still go forward, alright?

The (Second) Worst Marathon Ever Episode 01


A looooong time ago, we got together to discuss "Pixar's Rules of Storytelling," something we'd been talking about for almost as long.

Now, some of these rules are going to be extremely relevant for writers everywhere, and some are gonna be a bit more animation-centric.  So we'll have a lot to say about some of them, and a little less for others.  Hopefully, it'll all be entertaining (though I doubt it).



So, for the next weeks, we'll be presenting your daily marathon of That Gets My Goat-type episodes.  It's not the absolute worst marathon ever . . . but pretty darn close.

The (Second) Worst Marathon Ever Episode 00


Well, it's been a long time in coming*, but here we go.

So, Rish and Big went to Rish's family cabin once, and decided to talk about Pixar Animation Studio, and specifically, about their "Rules of Storytelling."


So, each day for the next couple of weeks or so (maybe even three), they'll do an episode about each of the "Pixar rules."  Join us, if you can.

Warning: some of these episodes may be short.  Enter at your own risk.

*So long, in fact, that the episodes will be about as out of date as the Pixar image above.

TGMG 187: (Doctor) Stranger Things

Big and Rish rushed out to see the latest release from Marvel Studios, DOCTOR STRANGE. Were they Cumberbatched? Or is that too vulgar for even an "Explicit" podcast?

TGMG 186: Abject Failure


"It's the show Big and Rish were too ashamed to bring you!"

Yeah, probably.  Over a year ago, we went up to my family cabin in the woods (okay, by a lake) and tried our hand at podcasting there.  We never went back.

This was the first of those shows we produced, and due to the shame involved, it sat unheard . . . until now.

Was it worth the wait?  Hell no, Rish Outfield.  But enjoy anyway.

Rish Narrates Two Eric Dean Stories on YouTube

Rish here.  Not too long ago, I got a request to narrate a couple of short stories by Eric Dean, a writer and podcaster who saw my name and number on the wall of a truck stop men's room and decided to take me up on it.*


So, you can hear his story about the delicious new craze known as "The Black Meat," and the "The Factotum's Magnum Opus and the Devil in the Details," about a school groundskeeper tasked with burying more than a dozen dead students.  Both are unusual, short, and decidedly twisted stories that aren't EXACTLY Horror, but aren't quite specifically anything else.  Both are available on YouTube, or on Eric's own website, Eric Writes.

And did you know that "factotum" was a word?  I didn't.


"Black Meat" can be found here: www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZSFw08NznoQ

"Factotum" can be heard here: http://youtu.be/cdfTC4MCaVI

Enjoy?

*Somebody want to create an image of a dirty wall with "For a good narration, write chalupaforyou@gmail.com" on it?  That would amuse me.
