More Episodes
The Fellowship is pleased to present another Casting Call episode. This time we're doing it a little differently - we're casting a new movie for Action Lab's Spencer & Locke comic series. It's a book that has been optioned for film, and it's got a deliciously dark storyline. We get into CGI, casting kids, movies vs streaming TV, and a whole lot of other stuff. Plus our usual odd behavior and our picks of the week.
 
Announcements:
Come hang out with us! We have monthly meetups on 2nd Saturdays in Garland, TX; details on Facebook & Twitter & the Events tab on our website
And we will not have a new episode next week
 
What we're up to this week:
Music documentary - Nat King Cole: Afraid of the Dark; very good doc, lots of family interviews, very sad ending
Dealing with sick kids all week, also homework for this week's topic
Homework, and Dateline reruns (tangent on true crime podcasts)
Meet & Gab was good, SDCC news, Fluxx has come to smartphones

And if this is your first Casting Call with our show, you'll want to keep Google handy. We can get a bit obscure with the names when we do this. This one shouldn't be quite as bad as when we deep-dive into decades long past, but still...
 
And I referred to our last chat with Madeleine Holly-Rosing, which was episode 146. Check it out and go buy her book!
