Losing Track

We are back with friend of the show Carlo Pangalangan Labrador to discuss Paul Schrader's new film The Card Counter, along with two of his other features. Drop a rate and review if you can, we'd appreciate it!

Look folks, we missed you a whole lot and we're back with a doozy. We spend the episode trying so very hard to piece together our thoughts on the newest NGE rebuild, Evangelion: 3.0 + 1.01 Thrice Upon A Time. We hope you can make it through that. If not, we'll be back soon with movies that don't have 4 other films and a television series you need to watch beforehand. Thanks for listening! Drop a review if you feel so inclined.

This week we discuss Makoto Shinkai's 2020 film Weathering With You, along with some other anime mentions as well as touching on the passing of Kentaro Miura.

We welcome our guest Carlo Pangalangan Labrador to discuss Atom Egoyan's The Adjuster (1991). A huge thank you to Carlo for taking the deep dive on this very under-appreciated film with us. You don't want to miss this one. Don't forget to drop us a rate and review! Thanks!

A hangout episode for the real ones. We go through some garage sale items, say some movie titles, and talk about sports clothing mishaps. Check back in later for some upcoming episodes on some good movies. Also - we read our first new review on air. Submit a review and we'll read it on the show too.

Mads Mikkelsen is rising faster and faster, so we decided to cover the brilliant Oscar-winning Another Round directed by Thomas Vinterberg as well as touch on our love for Mads Mikkelsen. Also on the episode, we touch on big guy respect for Guillermo del Toro, the messy award season, and rethinking our stance on sneaking snacks and drinks into the movie theater. Please leave us a rating and review if you can, we'd appreciate the help!

A titan-sized movie for the landmark 20TH EPISODE of the show! Staying true to the Losing Track brand, we're discussing Godzilla vs. Kong a month late. Our friend Ankit drops by for his first appearance to join us in poking fun at this delightful movie, talk some Slipknot, talk some Tenet, and talk some more junk. We had a good time Please drop us a rating and review on Apple Podcasts!

This week we take a look at some of the films of NIcolas Winding Refn, including the criminally underappreciated Fear X. If you want to skip directly to the discussion of those films, it begins at about the 37-minute mark. Otherwise, join us while we meander our way to the films. Please drop a rate and review and we'll read it on the show! Thanks for listening.

We promise, after about 12 minutes we do talk about movies. This week we're discussing the current state of Neon Genesis Evangelion, the new Tom & Jerry movie, The Night of the Hunter, Nomadland, Twin Peaks, the Minions, and much more. We also pay a little tribute to the great poet Lawrence Ferlinghetti after his recent passing.

Four years on, we discuss the penultimate episode of Nathan For You, Finding Frances, with co-founder and friend of the show Chase. We cover a lot of ground from the Herzogian approach to documentary, having your subject work within a defined framing, the contradictions of Bill Heath and a whole lot more. We also touch on Chase's progress through his first watch of The Sopranos. If you haven't already, please rate and review the show and we will read your review on the next episode. Thanks for listening!

We watched England is Mine, the completely unnecessary Morrissey biopic from 2017, just so you don't have to do it. Ever. You're welcome. Drop us a rate and review, and we'll read your review on the show! Thanks for listening!

This week we delve into the incredible meta-fictional ride that is Wes Craven’s New Nightmare. We had a lot of fun with this one, but we maybe did the worst segment ever recorded. If you haven’t already, please drop a rating and review!

On this episode, listen to Byron and Brandon do their best to defend M. Night Shymalan after watching Signs and The Happening. Brandon compares Signs to First Reformed, but refuses to elaborate. Byron makes an astute observation about Satan's relationship with Jesus. Please rate and review and the show if you haven’t already!

The year is over folks! That means it's time for our first year in review episode, and it's kind of a doozie. 2020 was a wild year for movies and the general access to movies, but that allowed a lot of us to catch up on our backlogged watchlists. On this episode we cover each of our top 10 new watches of the year along with our top 5 rewatches (whether that includes 2020 films or not). We're talking Weathering With you, Under the Silver Lake, The Insider, Brigsby Bear, The Muppet Christmas Carol, and a whole lot more. Please rate and review if you haven't yet!

Our schedules are very chaotic, but we are getting to episodes as we are able. This week we scratch the surface on the brilliant Memories of Murder (CONTENT WARNING) directed by Bong Joon-Ho and the concept of collective fear. Note: There is an audio issue where Byron's microphone is very quiet from approximately 1:19:00 to 1:20:00. We did what we could on short notice.

As a bit of an election buffer, we decided to have a little fun with previous guests Chase Kilpatrick and Erin Yarnall. Byron made us talk about Cats. Please direct all complaints to him. We had some audio issues while recording, but they should be minor.

We’re closing out October with Halloween cult classic, Trick ‘r Treat! We also touch on Neon Genesis Evangelion, vomit in movies, and of course the current state of TaB.

Halloween is upon us! With special guest and co-founder of Losing Track Chase Kilpatrick, we explore why we love Hubert Shubert DuBois and the camp of some silly Halloween movies. And of course, we touch base on the tragic loss of TaB.

After a last minute scheduling conflict, we jumped into an impromptu episode that had to be scrapped and recorded a second time due to a technical issue. So bear with us while two grown men discuss their top 5 Halloween movies along with their top 5 Halloween candies on this edition of FLICK OR TREAT!

Garfield is anime

This week we are joined by our good friend Cameron Murdoch to discuss David Robert Mitchell's Under The Silver Lake. Somewhere between the secrets of the movies and music that shape us, we find meaning. Or maybe none at all. Either is fine. Somehow we pretty much stay on topic. We're working on it.

Eventually we discuss the new Charlie Kaufman film and our issues with it, but more importantly we talk about our appreciation for Joe Pera Talks With You and truly dissect the perfect egg bite.

After several weeks of watching very draining movies, we needed some laughs. This week, we talk with journalist, writer, and good friend Erin Yarnall about Hot Rod, Popstar: Never Stop Never Stopping, and Palm Springs. It's a longer one, but we had lots of fun and lots of laughs. You can find Erin and her writing on Twitter @ErinYarnall

Taking a quick break to address what is going on in the community. We'll be back in full next week. Thanks for listening. GO FUND ME FOR JACOB BLAKE: https://www.gofundme.com/f/justiceforjacobblake

We're all over the place on this episode. Mainly we talk about An American Pickle and the new Perry Mason series. We also get into the staying power of streaming titles, physical media, and Al Adamson.

This week, we struggle with our first viewing of A Woman Under The Influence while of course recognizing the devastatingly powerful performances by Gena Rowlands and Peter Falk. Brandon mispronounces Gena Rowlands' name several times and he is very sorry. We also talk a little Perry Mason.

Welcome to the premiere episode of Losing Track! A podcast where we attempt to gather our thoughts around an expanding love for cinema. Brandon & Byron have a very loose discussion on David Lynch's Lost Highway. Among other things, Brandon forgets who Robert Loggia is and we make the very daring move of declaring Lost Highway "a pretty cool movie."
