Actor and improviser David Danipour is here to love K-PAX -- not a Korean ab workout, but a 2001 film that lulls him to sleep within ten minutes, no matter the scene. In a good, soothing kind of way.

Actor, voice over artist and production extraordinaire Alyssa Appleton is here to share how BUFFY THE VAMPIRE SLAYER gave her a voice when she needed it most. Episode Links: Joe's Patreon Mr. Owl's Website Alyssa's IG

What exactly are LEGACY SEQUELS, and why would anyone love them? Filmmaker and comedy writer Wahab Shayek is here to explain -- using LIVE FREE OR DIE HARD (2007) as his prime example. Wahab wrote Playmates, a short heist comedy that was selected to screen at the Tasveer Film Festival. He is also a proud (self-proclaimed) Cabello Bro 4 Life.

Actor, writer and improviser Macklen Makhloghi wants us to SHUT UP AND SCARE about the wonderfully surface-level Stephen King film SILVER BULLET (1985) -- a movie where nothing really pays off, but no one cares that it doesn’t.

Here’s a FREE PREVIEW of our latest Check-In Episode, aka "Shut Up Sasha and Joe." To hear more, head to https://www.patreon.com/c/ShutUpILoveItPodcast

Check-In Episode # 25: Killing things in your script. He was a Gilmore boy all along. Believing a cartoon when a turtle crawls out of its shell.

A little backstory: During the LA fires, Joe was near the Eton fire, Sasha was right by the Kenneth fire, and we were checking in on everyone -- each other, our friends, anyone who crossed our minds. This is when we remembered something important: we’re old friends with a lot of ridiculous history. So we decided to make it a thing—a weekly check-in where we catch up, talk about all the stuff outside the usual episode topics, reminisce about the Golden Age of Improv, spill the hot goss, and share whatever pop culture or art has us hooked that week.

These weekly check-ins are now living over on Patreon. If you love the podcast and can’t get enough of this undeniable chemistry, come hang out with us there.

Producer and comedy man Gil Baron is back ​for a SHUT UP ​I SCARE ​e​episode about THE REAL GHOSTBUSTERS, the animated spin-off of the 1984 classic film that he calls “a perfect intro to horror.” Nostalgia for it has even struck people who grew up in Siberia.

Shane’s heart forever belongs to Sam, the pumpkin-headed trick-or-treater from the spooky cult favorite T​RICK'R TREAT (2007).
