The Hosts
A little about us: Jake and Matt are two Baltimore based sports bloggers/podcasters who became friends first through that, and over time through their love of movies and pop culture. Together, they're teaming up (in what some are calling the most ambitious crossover event in history) to talk about just those things here.
Jake Louque
The host and producer of the Baltimore Beatdown Podcast (which some have called the best Ravens podcast on the planet), Jake is very excited to take his media talents into a new realm. He enjoys beer, scented candles, and being a terrible golfer.
Favorite Director: Tarantino
Favorite Movie: Goodfellas
Worst Take: Jarhead is a top 10 war movie
Favorite Animal in any Movie: Little Blackie.
Matt Pyne
Matt runs the Orioles podcast "Nate Hit The Foul Pole," and is taller in person than you'd think. He's a Tarantino aficionado with an unhealthy obsession with finding familial connection in the Tarantino Universe (shoutout to Aldo & Floyd). With over 130 films watched in quarantine, he's seen everything from "A Star is Born" to "Zathura."
Favorite Director: Tarantino
Favorite Movie: Taxi Driver
Worst Take: The Rise of Skywalker is good
Favorite Animal in a Movie: Brandy (Cliff Booth's dog)
