Creators and Guests

Host
Ian
Ian has been fascinated with the process of making movies for as long as he can remember, so much so that he has his bachelor’s degree in Cinema Arts & Science from Columbia College Chicago. That being said, he’s managed to miss out on so many pop culture cornerstones and arthouse gems alike that he *literally* created a podcast about it. When not doing whatever it is he does on this podcast, you’ll find him being lost in a theme park somewhere, working on a tech project, or being an award winning short film editor (but please don’t ask him about it, he hates bragging about himself.) Top 5: Princess Bride, Grand Budapest Hotel, Inside Out, Kingsmen: The Secret Service, The Fifth Element
Host
Meghan
Meghan is a certified film-ologist (aka she used her Art History degree as an excuse to study film for four years) and has her Masters in Creative Writing from Hamline University. When she isn’t podcasting or dissecting movies with Ian, she’s hanging out with her four pets and her partner, tending to her ever-expanding collection of indoor plants, engaging in various arts and crafts, and writing or reading anything from short stories to fanfiction to screenplays. Top 5: Jurassic Park, Princess Bride, Grand Budapest Hotel, Clueless, and The Shining
