This is Investors Needed, where we come up with great ideas so you don't have to. The hosts of your show are Stefan Claypool and Nick Smith.
Part-Time Art is a talk show about the challenges of balancing artistic expression and everyday life.
Cinema Excelsior is an exploration of films based on Marvel Comics. We analyze the good, the bad, and the really, really bad movies that make up the Marvel canon and try to understand what makes each one succeed or fail as adaptation, as production, and as art.
