15 – I Miss You Biopics And Their Infuriating Inaccuracies

•
Well well well, look at all this! It’s the fifteenth episode of I Miss You Man! Lonnie has a bone to pick about two very specific story elements from famous biopics. So of course, he constructed a whole episode just so he could whinge about them to his good mate Dylan. This is why they have a podcast. It’s cheaper than therapy.

  • 178 - I Miss You Ben Affleck's Confusing Debut Short Film

    24:09|
    Ben Affleck has been in some wonderful movies. He’s written and directed some great films as well. But how was his first foray behind the camera? It wasn’t very successful, apart from the title, but maybe Lonnie and Dylan have found a few bright spots in Ben Affleck’s debut short film: :I Killed My Lesbian Wife, Hung Her on a Meat Hook, and Now I Have a Three-Picture Deal at Disney” Yes that is the real title. And our Get Amongst It suggestion this week… Paradise.

  • 177 - I Miss You Head Canon and Fan Theories

    56:19|
    Sometimes the story that we’re given is not enough. It has some parts missing that we want to fill in or expand or let’s face it, sometimes we want to change the story to suit our purposes. That’s where Head Canon and Fan Theories come into play. You fill in the gaps to make the story better. How does this work? Is it healthy? Has a fan theory ever ‘come true’? Lonnie has told Dylan and now you can listen too.  And our Get Amongst It suggestion this week… the movie Friendship and Tim Robinson’s new show, The Chair Company. Contact us at imissyoumanpod@outlook.com.au  Our socials facebook.com/imissyoumanpod instagram.com/imissyoumanpodtwitter.com/imissyoumanpod And you can follow this link to rate the podcast!

    Last year it was kids horror movies. This year it's kids horror TV shows. The twist? This time we are joined by the wonderfully spooky Johanna Lyon!

And as a warm up, we watched a short Grizzly Tales for Gruesome Kids episode about a sulky little fella named Simon.
