Episode 131 - Emily Returns! It's Fan Celebration 3.0!

******* NOTE: Unfortunately we had some issues with our audio and the backup wasn't leveled properly, so some parts of the second half of the show are a touch spotty. Please accept our apologies! The rest of segment three will be appearing on our Patreon feed soon for ALL listeners, so please stay tuned! *******

We are BACK ladies and gentlemen for a full episode of the Epic Film Guys podcast that is all about YOU. That's right, it's finally time for the long-overdue Fan Celebration 3.0! All night long we'll be answering your questions and suggestions, and as with the previous celebrations we could not do this alone. We've invited Emily from the Story Behind back on the show with us to host the event and we had an absolute BLAST!

Aside from answering fan questions, we're also here to talk about the brand new Cloverfield Paradox in a quick review and we banter about a ton of other movie news and just have a blast. We always have such a great time when Emily comes to town, and we're so excited for her as she begins the journey of E Podcast Productions, her full-time podcast consulting and production business! If you want to learn more please check out https://www.epodcastproductions.com/!

Next week on the show we'll be back to review the brand new Black Panther... Justin has already set up his poll on Facebook to find out if he's going to force me to watch it, and since I know there's no way I'm going to win, I suppose I'll have to get a ticket.......... thank you all so much for listening! We'll see you at the movies!

We're now in planning for the Livestream for the Cure 2.0 and we're signing up guests for programming blocks on the show. If you're interesting in taking part in the event please sign up at https://drive.google.com/open?id=16iKIE0aTm-QyK0qiLo6bSLv406yvD0jsxNwmJs88o_8 and stay tuned to our Facebook page and the show for more announcements for the event. It will be starting on Friday, May 18th at 6:00 PM EST and we'll be doing 30 hours of live content up through 6:00 PM on Sunday, May 20th. We hope to see you there to help us raise money for this amazing cause.

Friends of the Show

We'd like to give a huge shout-out for a lot of the shows we're proud to call friends, and that we're proud to call ourselves fans of. We especially have to thank our brothers in Perth, Paul & Wayne of The Countdown Movie & TV reviews, who have opened us up to a huge audience halfway across the world. Particular thanks to Paul who has been an amazing friend and has been infinitely helpful in terms of getting honest feedback on the evolution of the show. A huge thank you to Emily from The Story Behind podcast, whose support and friendship have kept this show alive through some of its darkest days. A huge thank you to some of our biggest podcasting friends, from Mr. X at the Angry Old Man, Shane from Now That I'm Older, David from The Unwritable Rant, Adam from Everyone Has a Podcast, Ro from the World of Ro, the entire crew at Afterburn 739, Mat at the One Word, Go! show, Justin from So I Married a Movie Geek, and Deana from the Twisted Philly podcast. We're probably forgetting someone, so thank you to ALL of you! We truly do love and appreciate your support.

We also have to give a huge shout out to #PodernFamily for helping to increase our exposure, and safe to say without it we wouldn't have met a lot of the podcasters and fans we're proud to call friends. We also want to give a huge shout out to the #MoviePodSquad, a group of movie podcasters in the #PodernFamily who have come together for our mutual love of film.
