In this episode of Best. Album. Ever. Ben talks with CineSoul host Jorge Castellanos about his contendor: Darkness on the Edge of Town by Bruce Springsteen
Per usual, they talk about the album as a whole, how the guest came about this album, and how it evolved into one of the greatest of all time. Then they take a nice long walk through the tracklist, diving deep into the soul of Springsteen himself. Hope you enjoy it!
Thanks to Jorge for joining us on this uber-long episode! You can follow Jorge on Twitter and read about his takes on movies and TV on his personal website. 
Hope you're enjoying Best. Album. Ever. Look forward to another classic album next month!

In our followup episode to “Intro to Manga”, Nick and Jason talk about the strange, awkward, and beautiful stories of popular Manga titles: “Akira”, “Ode to Kirihito”, “Jojo’s Bizarre Adventure”, and “Lone Wolf and Cub”. Join in as they discuss what themes totally hit home and others that surely get lost in translation. You’ll meet doctors that turn into dogs, samurai with maternal instincts, teens who would never pass a driver’s test, and prisoners trapped in tempura batter. Manga really does have something for everyone!

CineSoul uses cinema to explore what matters to us most. Jorge Castellanos and his guests have conversations about the effects a film’s subject, theme and aesthetics have on our lives. This is not a discussion primarily focused on cinema as an art form, but rather on how any particular film touches us and why. CineSoul’s aim is to have the film catalyze a deeper conversation.
In today's episode of CineSoul, Jorge sits down with Steve Reid to discuss the film: Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri.
-----------------
Each episode of CineSoul will appear on this Overthink feed once a month, so stay tuned for more film-related deep conversations with Jorge and his guests.

As if Marvel, DC and the plethora of other American comics weren’t enough, Nick and Jason take a journey across the Pacific to see what real comic books are about. Japan has a rich, deep culture of comic books known as Manga and Nick is eager to learn. From its ancient beginnings to its Disney-like explosion into mainstream, Manga is sure to have something for everyone. Grab your reading passport and get ready to flip through some real gems… or be delightfully confused!

They're back at it again on What Exactly Am I Watching Here? Today Jason continues his insightful walk with Dom down the long, strange, and meaningful road of Twin Peaks...
On today's episode, they're starting Twin Peaks: THE RETURN! Switching things up a bit: shorter podcasts episodes because they're only covering one or two episodes per show. On today's show they talk all about Season 3, Episode 1: "My Log Has a Message for You". 
What Exactly Am I Watching Here? will appear on The Overthink feed every two weeks until Jason and Dom have finished Twin Peaks, and after that we'll jump on another show, with possibly two brand new hosts...perhaps. Stay tuned!
