The hosts of the Filmlosophers, The Capeless Crusaders, and Video Game BANG! come together to say farewell to not only a staple in the Sacramento community, but also to dear a friend. Late in June, we found out that our friend and podcast mate Curtis J. Fisher -also known as Skipntosh- passed away from a hard-fought battle with cancer. To many, he was more than just a friendly local comic book nerd; he was THE local comic book nerd. His love for the Sacramento Kings and all things nerdy made him a friend to every member of this city instantaneously. Next to his work in the podcast community, his musical career, and his ability to draw people from all crowds in, Curtis was like gravity. We knew that we had some things left to say to him, promises to keep, and goodbyes to be had. When podcasters need to say something, we do it the only way we know how: we come to the table, put on our headphones, and hit record. Join VGB host Cory Vincent, The Capeless Crusader hosts David "Doc" Barrie and Anthony Esteves, and Filmlosophers Amy and Eddie Villanueva as we talk about how we've each been touched by his life, and how his legacy will always live on. We will miss you, Curtis Fisher.
The Filmlosophers and Intern Amy powerslide into the latest video game-film adaptation with Videogame BANG! host Cory Vincent, as they each run the gauntlet to discuss Nintendo and Illumination's latest film, The Super Mario Bros (2023). The Jumping Jumpmen (and Jumpwoman) return to their childhood to revel in their delight at the film scorned by critics but loved by fans. Has the mega-team-up of Illumination and Nintendo finally given the House of Mouse a run for its money? Or has the curse still not been lifted off the impossible task of creating a video game-adapted film? Grab your power gloves & your popcorn, & tune in to find out in this week's episode of The Filmlosophers!

On this episode of Our PNW Music podcast we talk to Skagit County native, Cory Vincent (The Cory Vincent Group, Josey Wails, The Troy Fair Band).In the summer of 2018, Cory decided to leave his day job and become a solo musician full time. He is one of the, if not THE, hardest working musicians in the PNW right now; often playing 3 or more shows every week (pre-COVID shutdown).Cory is definitely a triple threat. He has an incredibly smokey blues timbre that can bounce effortlessly between a smooth Motown sound to a gravely blues rock style reminiscent of the late, great Gregg Allman. His deep, sometimes intense, rhythmic guitar playing is a perfect blend of straight blues rock that will bring to mind all the rock icons. And his lyricist style is powerful and concise, yet always evolving.Make sure you follow Cory's social media pages so you will get notified of upcoming live streams .... and hopefully some in person performances in the near future.Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/cory.vincent.589Instagram: https://instagram.com/coryvincentofficial?igshid=1bfrsspt5f9k6website: https://coryvmusic.com

With the 2020 “stay at home order” in place, Our PNW Music podcast had to get creative in order to bring you the best of the Pacific Northwest musicians. With most of the country hunkering down at home due to the COVID-19 virus, it got us thinking .... or maybe remembering.... there used to be a time, before music streaming services and mixed tapes, where we would listen to a FULL vinyl album (and 8-tracks/cassettes/CD's). In the words of Shane Gildnes from Fanny Alger, it was a time “that provided for the ability to not listen to music as a background activity, but it was actually THE activity”. Now, when so many people have this extra time on their hands, it's a great opportunity to go back and revisit the “lost art of deep listening”.On “Listening To Albums Again”, we talk with Cory Vincent (solo artist formerly from Josey Wales), Michelle Montoya (Gin Gypsy), Andy Brown (Whiskey Fever, Fortune 500, Pavlov Jones, Hindu Grass) and Shane Gildnes (Fanny Alger, Blue Green, Stagnant Water) while they recount their favorite albums from their youth.Discover how a used album of Black Sabbath's “Paranoid”, purchased from a second hand record store, redirected Cory Vincent's love of blues into a new direction.Michelle Montoya talks about being introduced to Michael Jackson's “Off The Wall” album by her neighbor ..... and that she would go to her neighbors house so often just to listen, it was eventually gifted to her.Andy Brown talks about how Tom Petty's “Damn The Torpedos” made a huge impression on him as a young adult growing up in Sedro Woolley. And on a comical note .... Andy will tell you what artists were not his favorites ... but always made big points with the ladies during his “dating days”.And finally, Shane Gildnes, the walking encyclopedia of musical knowledge, talks about the impression that Pink Floyd's concept album “The Wall” made on him. And .... as only Shane can do .... you will also hear his thoughts on what important people DJ's are, his rules to reading liner notes, how Led Zeppelin snuck up on him, his memories of the Columbia record company and his 7 degrees of separation between Pink Floyd's “The Wall” and actor Kevin Bacon. There is never a dull moment talking to Shane and we are so lucky to have him here in the PNW.
