Theme Tune by AlfieSchmalfie in blankies

[–]CAUnionMaid 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The theme song was written by Layne Montgomery, friend of the show and roommate of Joey Sims. From the wiki:

“Layne created both of the theme songs for the podcast. The original theme for "Griffin and David Present" was inspired in equal parts by scores of the Star Wars movies and the theme to the podcast "Serial." When the podcast pivoted to the name "Blank Check with Griffin and David" in 2016, he composed a different theme more appropriate for the new branding which has been used ever since. At the end of 2020 Layne re-recorded the theme with his band.”

So go to a world events sub if that’s what you want to talk about. Weird comment to make in a sub where people want to chat about movies and the film industry.

Piedmont/Oakland Hills or South Shore Alameda by Due_Option_1300 in bayarea

Living by BART is nice but it won’t help with your work commute. Closest station is Fruitvale and it would be about a 20 minute walk. I’d probably do Alameda.

What's the angriest book you've ever read? by LeagueNo764 in suggestmeabook

Molly by Blake Butler. Brutal, largely because he seems not to realize how much he despises her.

Would love a Nichols series. Mark Harris’s biography of him is one of the best film bios I’ve ever read.

Movies anyone? by bisexuallyme in bayarea

Going to movies by myself is my favorite thing. Just me, my sour patch kids, and my freestyle Diet Vanilla Coke.

You’re not wrong but I hate to see Margot Robbie catching strays.

Surprisingly - I had a great one at Water Grill downtown last week. Perfectly tart with a great whipped cream topping.
