Episode 47: Guillermo (and Steven)
16/01/2022 Duración: 01h33minGuillermo del Toro and Steven Spielberg – two titans of the science fiction/fantasy genres. What is there to say about Guilly and Steve that hasn’t been said already? They’ve won every award under the sun and captivated generations of filmgoers with their stylish and (mostly) accessible brands of movie magic through the years. One thing they haven’t done, however, is serve as the direct inspiration for an episode of Pitch Hunt. Today, all of that changes – and the results are so gourd-shattering that they have to be heard to be believed.

Episode 46: Space Opera featuring Ted Meyer
10/01/2022 Duración: 01h33minAmerica is talking about The Worm. You’ve been hearing about The Worm. You’ve been talking about The Worm. You’ve lived and loved The Worm, and Pitch Hunt is no different. We’ve got Dune fever and are jonesing for our next great Space Opera fix.

Episode 45: Prequels! Featuring Jordan Tyler
16/10/2021 Duración: 01h21minSequels are a dime a dozen these days. Every movie that promises to turn a profit in Hollywood is guaranteed to be greenlit for at least a cool half dozen followups before the original even hits theaters. They’ve become such a ubiquitous part of the modern film landscape that it’s bigger news if a successful movie doesn’t get a sequel than if it does. Here at Pitch Hunt we are frankly sick and tired of seeing sequel after sequel clogging up our marquees, so we’ve come up with a bold new idea – instead of making movies that take place…Listen Now!Episode 45: Prequels!

Episode 44: Heist
08/07/2021 Duración: 01h13minOne last job and you’re set for life. No red-blooded cinephile has ever walked out of a heist movie without considering how sugary sweet it would be to make several lifetimes worth of dough in one elaborately planned night of good old fashioned crookery. In a world filled to the brim with get-rich-quick schemes and dubious investment opportunities, nothing captures the imagination quite like a slick, stylish heist flick. This week on Pitch Hunt, the hosts channel their inner Surly Squirrel to craft three films that are sure to empty and then refill the pocketbook of whatever Hollywood fatcat is…Listen Now!Episode 44: Heist

Episode 43: Summer Camp

Episode 42: (Kanye) Western
11/06/2021 Duración: 01h04minFrom the very earliest days of American cinema to the present, nothing has captured the imagination of city-slickers and country folk alike quite like a story set in a romanticized version of the Old West. From gold prospecting to cattle rustling, train robberies to the systematic destruction of the lives and societies of indigenous peoples, Westerns are about as quintessentially American as it gets. On this week’s Pitch Hunt, the sounds, smells, tastes, and textures of Wests old and new will fill your ears, and just maybe, your hearts.

Episode 41: Survival
03/06/2021 Duración: 01h09minHuman vs. Nature. Nature vs. Human. Human vs. Human??? However you slice it, the struggle to survive – pitting humanity against the many forces of the world – has both captured the mind and caused untold strife throughout history. Accordingly, stories about that struggle have long been mainstays of the silver screen. After all, what is being human but the eternal and essential urge to fight back against the inexorable forces of nature and time? Tune into this week’s Pitch Hunt for a measured and provocative existential discussion about the true nature of what makes life so goshdarn tricky.

Episode 40: Cryptid Adventure
13/08/2020 Duración: 01h05minIs the Loch Ness Monster real? Do herds of jackalope roam the plains of the American west? Can you meet the wily chupacabra? The answer to all of these questions is, of course, a resounding yes. What do all these things have in common? It’s obvious to many, but for those fools not in the know, they are all popular examples of Cryptids, animals that are claimed to be real but whose whereabobuts have never been precisely ascertained. This week on Pitch Hunt, star guest Ted is back to weave a tale unlike any told before. Come along for the…Listen Now!Episode 40: Cryptid Adventure

Episode 39: Pitch Hunt After DarK: Video Games
17/06/2020 Duración: 01h02minIf you’re like much of humanity, video games have played a major role in maintaining your sanity over the last 3 months or so. Probably longer. There are many ways to experience these games, and many directions you can go with them. You might be looking for an adventure. Maybe you want to challenge yourself from the safety of your living room. Or perhaps you just need to let out some pent-up aggression and rage. Whatever the case may be, there is almost certainly a video game that will meet your needs. Tragically, though, the many attempts to bring beloved…Listen Now!Episode 39: Pitch Hunt After DarK: Video Games

Episode 38: Frank “Moleman” Meyer
04/06/2020 Duración: 44minMoles are defined by Webster’s Dictionary as one of three things: A small burrowing insectivorous mammal with dark velvety fur, a long muzzle, and very small eyes. A small, often slightly raised blemish on the skin made dark by a high concentration of melanin. A spy who achieves over a long period an important position within the security defenses of a country. Our special guest on this episode of Pitch Hunt doesn’t neatly fit under any one of those categories. He is, in fact, a human person. Frank Meyer, to be specific. Longtime friend of the show, and longer time…Listen Now!Episode 38: Frank “Moleman” Meyer

Episode 37: Food
07/05/2020 Duración: 01h04minFood, glorious food. Without food, there would be no films. Without films, there would be no Pitch Hunt. By the transitive property, all of the good things in life can be traced back to humble grub. Moreover, Hollywood’s love affair with tasty fare can be traced all the way back to its humble beginnings. From the eggs in Cool Hand Luke to the mashed taters in Close Encounters, from the steamy spaghetti smooch in Lady and the Tramp to the food fight in Animal House, food deserves as much credit as the writers and actors that fill the annals of…Listen Now!Episode 37: Food

Episode 36: Zucker-Abrahams-Zucker (AKA: Airplane! Bois)
30/04/2020 Duración: 01h01minThe 1980’s were a banner age for comedy, so much so that the decade is widely considered to be the “golden age of comedy”. From Caddyshack to Ghostbusters to The Goonies, each year churned out more classic funfests than perhaps any other time in cinema history. Though many directors were in their heyday during these goofy times, there was a trio that utilized a consistently effective formula of rapid-fire jokes, slapstick setpieces, and satirically deadpan protagonists to craft several of the funniest pure comedies ever made. Jim Abrahams and David and Jerry Zucker were the team that created Airplane!, Top…Listen Now!Episode 36: Zucker-Abrahams-Zucker (AKA: Airplane! Bois)

Episode 35: 50 Shades of Gray
30/03/2020 Duración: 01h27minIn your wildest, most perverse and sadomasochistic dreams, what could you imagine that would be better than 3 new installments of America’s favorite BDSM franchise? How about 50? Go ahead, pinch yourself. You’re not snoozing. Our sick, sultry cohosts actually done did it, throwing the script out the window and embarking on their most ambitious and erotic episode ever by a factor of many. Turn up the slow jams, shut the drapes, and get ready to be transported into a sensual world of thrilling eroticism the likes of which may never be equaled.

Episode 34: Pixar
25/03/2020 Duración: 57minIn the quarter of a century since the release of their debut feature Toy Story, Pixar has created an astonishing number classic family films: Toy Story 2, Toy Story 3, Toy Story 4, The Good Dinosaur — just to name a few. Though a large part of what makes those films timeless is the beautiful animation style that brings their vibrant characters to life, the stories are almost without exception both profound and deeply intimate. Our animated cohosts clearly had a tough task coming up with the next great Pixar film, but what came out of their imagineering was beautiful…Listen Now!Episode 34: Pixar

Episode 33: Mission: Impossible
22/03/2020 Duración: 01h05minTom Cruise. Incredible danger. Breathtaking set pieces. A rotating yet consistently intrepid team of sidekicks. The M:I cinematic universe has been consistently thrilling and delighting fans for over two decades, yet has the distinction of being perhaps the only action franchise in which each successive movie has not only escalated the stakes but genuinely improved in quality. In pitching a followup to perhaps the greatest action/adventure film ever made, our undercover cohosts have a seemingly impossible mission, should they choose to accept it.
