Steven Reyes & Sean Anderson Episode 305

On the podcast this time, Steven and Sean are going on an adventure… and opening up our hearts. We watched the 1986 film by Rob Reiner, Stand by Me.

Is there a better way to kick off this entire month of celebrating the birth of me, Sean, than by doing a whole load of movies from the year of my birth? Since I’m the one writing these things, I’m gonna go with heck no!

I wanted to see a bunch of movies that have somehow passed me by, or are otherwise interesting looking. To that end, this one is a tale of friendly, brotherly love. You might think it’s just about the body (like I did), but you’d be wrong!

So join us in celebrating a wonderful film by a wonderful director chosen by a wonderful podcast co-host. There may be no dead bodies here, but there will be friendly conversation.
