Fade To Green

Like any podcast, there comes an episode where one of the hosts forgets to change their mic from the default webcam mic to their actual, professional recording device. For Carter, this is that episode, and he is sorry. But ever onward! We watched Miss Pettigrew Lives for a Day, starring Francis McDormand. She's just the best. We greatly appreciate everything she's done. We also appreciate everything you've done. Thank you

Listen, sometimes here at FtG studios we experience technical difficulties with a program that is like Skype but worse. But limitations are the catalyst of artistic expression and from the ashes of dropped telecommunication there be borne heroes anew. Alexander Graham Bell probably said that This show is about Frances McDormand and her performance in the classic hit, Fargo. It is in no way about Peter Stormare or Paul Bunyan. Thank you for your cooperation

Somewhere lost in the clouded annals of history, lies a podcast called Fade to Green. Where two friends get "Hansel and Gretel vibes", discuss the best afterlives, and admire the buttery voice of the kitty king of Potsfield. It's Over the Garden Wall, the Cartoon Network miniseries. We take our time with this one, so watch the series before you listen, or don't! either way, Thank you! 

The boat was evil, but welcome to Fade to Green. The boat was evil, but Elijah Wood loved evil. The boat was evil, but at least it couldn't contract cooties. The boat was evil, but not more so than a move about zombie children The boat was evil, and thank you.  

Elijah Wood in high school!? They said it couldn't be done, but we don't like that kind of negativity at Fade to Green studios. Instead, we celebrate the gift that is the two pure blue pools of light that rest where young Frodo's eyes belong. Join us for a serene swim as we discuss the 90's creature feature: The Faculty, with Jon Stewart.  No no, thank you

Hello again! We're back! We've moved across state lines and are now very happy to both be recording in beautiful Washington State. We've got a new actor, the esteemed Elijah Wood, to follow from his child actor years to now. Today it's The Good Son! Take a listen and, Thank you. 

I'm sorry. We're sorry. Although we are fairly certain we didn't say anything offensive, we would like to warn you that the recording you are about to hear is entirely nonsense. From the warning at the beginning, past Carter mansplaining Fleetwood Mac, to the two worst southern accents on the planet.  Heed our warning, friend.  And thank you.

Oh Mark, how you toy with our hearts and our minds. Off the heels of a movie we both thought to be pretty dang good, you present us with this, another movie.    Welcome back friends. We are three parts through Mark. Are we ready to move on? You bet your teddy bear. 

Round two in the ring with Mark Wahlberg! Four brothers is what we watched, starring Mark and his three other brothers. The movie is full of twists and turns but perhaps the biggest twist, we both liked it very much!  We avoid spoilers for the first half of it and we'll warn you when we lift our conversational restriction.  Join the party! and join us next week when we visit Mark for the third time, in the second Ted, having never seen the first. 

A new month, a new actor, and an old 90s movie called Boogie Nights! We are now ONE DEEP into our exploration of Mr Mark Wahlberg. Join us!  Also! Take a look at our new Podcast art! Made for us by the incredibly talented Mariah Currey. Check out more of her excellent work over @RainyDayMariah and pay a visit to her webcomic http://rainydaydreams.mariahcurrey.com  You can also see the rest of her work on her website mariahcurrey.com!  Check it all out! 

It's the end of the first saga! In this, the last Amy Poehler viewing, we watch Inside Out. We work our way through the criminal underbelly of emotion, consult on imaginary friends, and come to grips with the need for balance in our lives. 

For third and final of our four Amy Poehler experiences, we take a look at the suburban casino comedy, The House. There are grants to lose, daughters to lie to, and a surprise appearance from no one's favorite Avenger. 

You kept listening?! Well hey, we'll keep watching these movies then. This is part 2 of our Amy Poehler month where we break down 2009's Spring Breakdown.  Three ladies follow three slightly younger ladies into the jungle of spring break. Who gets laid? Who screams the loudest? What's the deal with Cherleene? You'll have to listen to find out! 

Welcome to the Fade to Green podcast! Each month Carter and Yiska select an actor to follow throughout their career, reviewing their movies and hanging out.
