Chillpak Hollywood Hour #304
March 11, 2013 | 
Author Even after almost six years of bringing you a free weekly podcast, your friends in podcasting can still surprise. Witness this week’s opening, which is an absolute first. Witness Dean and Phil talking about LARPing (Live-Action Role-Playing) … LARPing!!!
Dean and Phil finally get around to their “genius” vs. “artist” discussion as it relates to filmmakers, painters, scientists and pioneers in all fields. They also take on an article claiming to unlock the conspiracy mindset and in the process take on the entire era of judgment in which we find ourselves.
Finally, they discuss several movies and several television shows as well as the death of NBC.
All this week, on YOUR Chillpak Hollywood Hour!
