Rebootleggers

It's just Rebecca and Scott this week because Frank's head was full of juices. Since it's Thanksgiving time, we rebooted the first Thanksgiving-related movie that Rebecca could think of: You've Got Mail! It's only barely related to Thanksgiving too, I think it just takes place around Thanksgiving? There are not a lot of Thanksgiving movies, you guys. Anyway, we rebooted the movie to be about two very rich people who are insufferable but fall in love anyway! See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

This week we're joined by special guest Josie DeJarnatt, and she chose to reboot the Disney Channel Oriignal Movie series Halloweentown.

Scott and Rebecca recorded themselves playing Untitled Goose Game (Rebecca played, Scott watched), but the video didn't record correctly. So we're giving you 2 hours of audio-only game-streaming, because for some reason you asked for this. We're definitely going to try more games in the future, and will definitely get the video to work correctly! Future videos will go up on the Rebootleggers YouTube channel.

Brock Wilbur returns to help us reboot the movie Postal, a very problematic movie based on a very problematic game! We decided on this reboot to tie into the book Brock wrote about Postal for Boss Fight Books. Come join us as we try to navigate how to reboot this movie in a way that addresses the issues of toxic masculinity and gun violence, and attempts to fix them rather than glorify them. It's a bit heavier than most, but it's a really good one guys.You can find Brock on twitter or at http://brockwilbur.com/.
