Two Minorities Roll Up To A Bar-cast

When we took our usual two week break, I thought the only drama there would really be would be the insane reactions Ghostbuster Bros have had to the movie. I didn't know that Kim K would cement her place as the Captain of Team Petty, that a critics organization would start to fall apart, that Comic Con would be ninth circle of hell hot or that there'd be so much more to discuss. So...I hope you all enjoy this epic and jam packed podcast!

Quick: Name the Emmy worthy actor that can give a thoughtful interview with anecdotes about meeting J.K. Rowling after being strapped to a rotating gondola all day on set. If you said Pedro Pascal, then you'd be correct. The actor, currently working on the Kingsman sequel, had a pretty tough day on set when we finally got to chat, but proved to be as elloquent and thoughtful as you'd think. Entering into mass public consciousness with his breakout role as Oberyn Martell in Game of Thrones, the actor has upped his game as DEA Agent Javier Pena on the Netflix show Narcos.  Pedro and I spoke why he chose the role, the lengths he and the crew went to get the story right, and how Netflix is the perfect place for the show.

New Podcast! Kristen and I chat about the awful events in Orlando and how it put a damper on Terence's fun night at Pride, Noah Galvin's foot in mouth interview, the Hamiltonys, Hillary Clinton's big presumed win and Kristen rants about Me Before You. Enjoy!

It has been a minute since I graced the world with my voice and since my regular podcast cohost has been resting since we graduated, I decided to bring in Film School Rejects writer (and former coworker at Awards Circuit) Kristen Lopez to chat about the struggles with adapting things. We started off talking about the dreadful adaptation of an adaptation that was Pride and Prejudice and Zombies and move into how things generally get screwed up when films are made from other mediums. We then spend a nice amount of time chatting about the recent Captain America news and a hashtag for more inclusion. Enjoy!

If you follow any of my social media in the past year, you know that I stan for Adam Silvera, after his book More Happy Than Not devastated and wowed me last year to the tune of being my #1 book of the year. I have mentioned several times how excited I would be to meet him and luckily our schedules aligned enough that we were able to speak at Y'all West. Adam and I talked about everything from telling modern gay stories to how he really is a Slytherin masquerading as a Hufflepuff. 

Many of you who are checking this out might not know who David J. Peterson is by name, but you certainly know of his work. In his career he has created languages for HBO's Game of Thrones, Syfy's Defiance, Syfy's Dominion, the CW's Star-Crossed, the CW's The 100, Showtime's Penny Dreadful, MTV's The Shannara Chronicles, NBC's Emerald City, and Marvel's Thor: The Dark World. I got to sit down with the author to chat about his work and career.

I mean, you didn't honestly think that we'd be talking about anything other than Lemonade on this podcast? We basically shower Beyonce's best (?) album with tons of love and rave about the visuals. We also take time to talk about our lives and throw in a wonderful dash of pettiness about raggedy people in our lives. Enjoy!

This week's On the Floor is one of the most interesting podcasts that we've done and we pack a lot into the 47 minute episode. Among the topics up for discussion are how boneheaded these supernatural shows are with stories and actors of color, why Nicole Beharie and Arden Cho were right to leave Sleepy Hollow and Teen Wolf, what is a good way to get both of us to cry, and we even give you a bit of insight into our lives as students on the precipice of graduation. Enjoy!

I know you all probably dislike when Spagettit and I take long unannounced breaks but for all that waiting, we have a wonderful podcast for you that's jam packed with wonderfulness. We talk about a wonderful list of topics that range from how lit the Hamburger Helper mixtape is, how awesome Everybody Wants Some is, how tough it is to fan cast a show like Young Justice, and how raggedy Batman v Superman was. Enjoy!

Hello neglected wonderful listeners of this podcast. We've missed you, and according to a tumblr ask, you have missed us as well. To atone for the fact that it's been weeks since you had a new On the Floor we have packed in an insane amount of topics including a look at the TV landscape and how the controversy with The 100 is redefining fan interaction, the excellent 10 Cloverfield Lane and what kept us from loving it completely, and the best LGBT films of ALL TIME! Enjoy!  

Life is hitting Spagettit left and right as you'll hear in various points during this podcast. When we are not wrestling with our raggedy lives we take time to chat about Shadowhunters, Kaney's new album The Life of Pablo, American Crime (yes, again) and tell you exactly why we might not be watching the Oscars. We also talk pet peeves of words being used to describe films.

On the Floor is back for another week with a discussion that starts off real shady and rude, yet transforms into an appreciation of stuff. We open on Rihanna's new album ANTI and the divisive feelings it has engendered, plus how ridiculous the reclassifcation of Platinum is. We then move on to American Crime and dissect what makes it so great and end with a wonderful celebration of great films and what makes them so. Enjoy!

Spagettit and I have reconvened to put the final statement on 2015's really wonderful films. We give you our top 10s and then our pretend Oscar ballots. There's also a quick New Year's Resolution check up. You can donate to my Indiegogo campaign at http://igg.me/at/TDMBP

And...we're back! As penance for leaving you hanging so long, Spagettit and I are here with an epic podcast that covers everything from the actors on the Han Solo short list to how masculinity is under the microscope on American Crime. We also spend a decent amount of time talking the Oscars, how we feel about diversity, and what the real issue is. We end the podcast with some introspective questions that get pretty personal. Enjoy!

On the Floor is still on its break but I didn't want to leave you all bereft of hearing my voice or my take on things for too long so I decided to enlist the help of Journeys in Classic Film's Kristen Lopez to chat about some of the divisive movies that have come out. In this recording, she and I discuss how the tools of cinema failed The Revenant, how we were unmoved by the sadness in Anomalisa, bash the politics of The Hateful Eight, and sing the surprising virtues of Joy. Enjoy!

It's the final On the Floor podcast of the year (and our actual 28th episode)! For this we break down the music that made us move, cry, and think by talking about our favorite albums of the year. As usual, there's some wonderful discussion and banter, with some petty thrown in for good measure.

You've seen my list of the best of tv in 2015 now join Spagettit and I for the conversation where we break down what worked for us on the small screen, talk about whether there is too much TV, and talk about how awesome The Jinx was. Enjoy!
