In the latest episode of the Rough Drafts podcast, Walter Fedczuk and Chase Wassenar discuss Black Widow, the MCU film that technically kicks off Phase 4, we guess. Together, they discuss their frustrations with the narrative, the acting performances that tried to carry the day, and what this movie was all about (if anything).
The Rough Drafts podcast returns! In Walter Fedczuk and Chase Wassenar's return to podcasting, the duo discusses Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings. Together, they talk about going back to the cinema for the first time, how Marvel weaves fantastical elements into their narratives, and what Shang-Chi's success means for the future of the MCU.
Georgia is heading into two critical runoff races that will determine which party will control the Senate. While I have my criticisms of the Democrats, the two Republican candidates running in my home state are particularly awful. So awful, in fact, that I was able to put together a 20 page script on Senator David Perdue alone. In this homage to Robert Evans’ Behind the Bastards podcast, I sat down with Walter Fedczuk to discuss what makes Senator Perdue a bad person who should feel bad and does not deserve your vote in this 2020 runoff election.
