Seany and Joe take a look at the careers of film's most influential actors, actresses, and directors through their bodies of work, as well as debate and review new releases.
Your absolute favorite movie/tv/geopolitical news podcast is back and this episode really imitates life at the moment: it's confusing, chaotic, and we make the most out of it. I assure you we'll all get through this as long as you all listen to this episode right now.. and I guess listen to the instructions of the CDC and scientists and what have you. Stay well.
What better time than January 23, 2020 to drop our first episode(s) in 6 months where we tell you all about our favorite films of the past decade? Well that’s exactly what we do in this two parter that has all the yelling over one another and microphone sound level inconsistencies you’ve grown to love from this podcast. Here’s to another decade of maybe 2 or 3 episodes a year!

Here’s to another decade of maybe 2 or 3 episodes a year!
In this episode, the boys take a deep dive into this summer’s surreal Swedish nightmare movie from writer/director Ari Aster, “Midsommar.” But wait TPT, what about your off the rails tangents? Well don’t worry, we’ve got plenty of those too. And I implore you to listen until the end for our take on how this whole Area 51 raid will most likely play out. Enjoy!
Look, we here at TPT love the work of the Duplass Brothers as much as the next person, but the mundanity of their films makes it difficult to fill up an hour, which is why we went off on a tangent about Simon Birch for the better part of this episode. Just can't let Jim Carrey go. Enjoy!
Well, the plan was to record a podcast on the life and career of Jim Carrey, but things don't always go according to plan in the podcasting business. Instead the podcast derailed into a lengthy recap of Carrey's most stellar performances in The Mask and Dumb and Dumber 2, along with a discussion on Ed Harris' finger nails, Vince Vaughn's charisma, The Will Ferrell Dodge Stratus SNL skit, Russell Crowe's Oscar Nominations, how Brian De Palma attended Friends Central High School, the Seth Rogen Green Hornet movie, Hulu's "The Act," a 5 second story about D's dad that took 5 minutes to tell, and of course some flawless impressions of: Adam Sandler, Robin Williams, Nick Nolte, and the guy from Grease who played Kenickie, among a bunch of other nonsense. Enjoy!
In this episode, Joe & D run down the list of their most favorite films to come out of the 1970's, while Seany rarely chimes in because he "saw some of these movies a long time ago and forgets everything that happens." Enjoy!
In this episode, Joe, D, and Sean attempt to squeeze an hour of podcasting out of what was all-in-all a fairly underwhelming Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences Awards Show. Enjoy!
We here at TPT thought, what better time to tell you all about the films we enjoyed the most in 2018 than 23 days into 2019? And thats exactly what we accomplish in this episode, sorta. With the help of friends and loyal listeners D and Vince, the guys run down the list of their top 5 films of 2018. Some choices are agreed upon, some are mad fun of, and others draw little to no interest. We hope you enjoy and we recommend you go watch (most of) the films that are discussed!
In this episode, we discuss The House That Jack Built. It contains mild spoilers but we still recommend you listen as any verbal description will not lessen the effect this movie will have on you. There is much to discuss from the movie that Seany calls "No exaggeration, the darkest movie I have ever seen in my life." Enjoy! (if possible).
In this episode, the guys discuss the life and career of Judd Apatow. While listening, it's going to sound like Joe hates Judd and Seany has never seen one of his movies, but we assure you this is not the case... we'll let you be the Juddge.
(The mics sound weird up until 3:25, sorry). In this episode, Seany seethes with anger at the talent level of the many directors who are just a few years his senior, while Joe performs a dramatic reading from HBO's True Detective (season 1 fortunately.) Enjoy!
In this episode, Seany & Joe are joined by friend and longtime listener of the past 2 episodes, Sean aka D! (no one on this program named Sean actually gets called Sean). The boys take a deep dive into a handful of films directed by the Italian filmmaking wizard Martin Scorsese. Vol. 2 to be determined, so stay tuned!
Welcome back! In episode 2 of this acclaimed podcast, Joe & Sean run through a few of their favorite opening movie scenes, but not before imagining the different meaning one could take from watching Billy Madison on mute. "Is that it, Dad? Did the penguin tell you to do this?" Enjoy!
In the opening episode of Talking Picture Talk, Sean and Joe list off their top 5 favorite films of 2018 so far. But before they do that, they settle the endless debate on when it is appropriate to use "film" or "movie"... (or "flick" if you're a serial killer). We hope you enjoy the inagural episode! More to come!
