Hello fellow idiots, my name is Jack and I created this podcast to talk about everything. I'll share stories that I've written, interview people I know, and discuss things about life that we'll never be able to answer. Join me for just a few minutes to relax, talk about the world, and always stay until the end because that's the best part.

A Spotlight on the Auteur
Hello fellow idiots! I'm proud to present you with the third episode of the Theoretical Idiot Podcast. In this episode, I talk with my very first guest, Trent, about auteurism and how it relates to the hit television shows Breaking Bad and Better Call Saul. Auteurism has become engrained in all media and it has significant consequences on the collaborative nature of media production. Join us as we criticize auteurism and stick around towards the end where we each give a review of a film we recently watched!

Return of the Idiot
Welcome back! I know I have been gone for a while but I very excited to return and begin uploading a lot more consistently. I hope you will join me for this short episode about isolation, current events, and a new movie review. Surely you have to be bored enough to listen to me rant.
