Hollywood is a city of connections. On the CINEMA CHAIN GANG PODCAST, Andrew Auger and Nick Riccardo travel through the history of cinema, chain by chain, by linking random actor to random actor one review at a time. Think the Six Degrees of Kevin Bacon, but bigger and more expansive. Join us on the journey!
