Releasing weekly episodes, Nancy and Brando put their unique insight into the entertainment industry with sort of a rambling look into movies, tv, and video games to determine if they are, in fact, entertaining.Both new and old movies, current and classic video games, and all sorts of TV shows will be evaluated to see if they still can be classified (in our minds) as entertainment or if that world has long since passed by them.Our goals are to be both thoughtful and comical as we navigate this podcast from episode to episode.Nancy is a self-assessed movie freak who owns over 500 movies and watches them on the regular. He is the brains behind the show but brains are sometimes lacking in his department. Watching nearly as much TV as he does movies, Nancy still finds time to work (yes he has a job) and even play video games. Nancy believes he is picky and doesn't like a lot of movies but we know that not to be the case, he just loves a certain genre and style of entertainment.Brando is a deep thinker who loves the process of thinking about entertainment. While he may not have re-watched as many movies as Nancy or he may not remember lines from them like Nancy, but what he lacks there, he more than makes up for it by his amazing diversity of knowledge in the entertainment field specifically with movies. There isn't much he won't watch.
