    Thanks to your support and feedback the last episode to the first official season to “Spitballin’” was a huge success! We started from YouTube and now we are on Anchor! -(Dad) *the dad also dabs *”you’re lame dad”-(fake child) Anyways many mentioned they liked the new direction and so we spent some time to tinker to improve the quality of the videos so that’s what we focused on this time. I was supposed to edit the film but I went to go watch Knives Out and that movie was spectacular. Talking to Roman today on the podcast really showed me his eye. Well the past couple of days he has really been serious and focused on a task. This task is his huge project of being appointed the director for Michael Luciano’s newest film. Many people think art is fun, but it sometimes may not be. Sometimes you need a more rigid composure because you are guiding others to perform in new manners. It’s a trial. It’s a trial! Really I would lose my mind making people engage, heck I hardly can control lamps (I have this lamp that always falls when I turn it on) So Roman Acosta, everyone. He will be joining us today. In addition, the mysterious and elusive Michael Luciano- the writer, the story teller for an evening. Michael love The Godfather, we actually made an entire meal the first time I came over to Michaels. There we enjoyed fettuccini alla puttanesca I think. And Travis was there and he showed me the simplest ways to keep beauty contained, but not against its will. He showed me some things with photos it was cool. Anyways, we all talk about The Godfather and then enjoy talk of the Golden Globes. Finally we get to the Oscars and open up about our love for Christian Bale. Lastly we love you. Firstly, we get serious about a very touchy subject that now is being investigated heavily, and rightfully so. We hope you will continue to stand against oppression, even if you have to stand alone, it’s better to stand for those who can’t, even if you have to bend. --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app

    Today we sat down at the local cafe The Queen Bean in Downtown Modesto to talk to actor/director and bender of light Roman Acosta, and his compatriot Michael Luciano, a young prolific film writer with a sophisticated film palette that would rival the JJ Abrams of the world. Roman Acosta is a fun person who does not give himself enough credit for his natural skill: his kindness. Michael Luciano is equally kind, but more jolly, and I would love to see his idea of humor that translates through his films. These gentlemen were a pleasure to spitball with, I hope you enjoy Spitballin’ with us. --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app
