Dedicated to the academic discussion of the acclaimed actor, Paul Giamatti. Every week we move through a new piece in the Paul canon. Blessed be the Giamatti, praise be.
He is risen! He is risen indeed! Paul Giamatti is back.
Hello, Little Pauls! It's been years since this feed was active. In that time, Paul Giamatti actually started his own COVID-era podcast and has now ended it. By releasing this episode, we have officially out lasted the man, himself but... What was the cost? What happens now? Where are Sam and Dan? In this special episode, two voices from the podcast's past step into the booth. Adam Snyder (of Adam's Science Corner) and Tony Johnston (of emails) step up to the plate and break down "Straight Outta Compton" to keep the glorious name of Paul alive.
Please enjoy - there may be more regular Paul soon but no promises... yet. Blessed be the Giamatti, praise be!

From the Vault: Jungle Cruise (2021)
Put on your jungle pants and hop aboard. Dan and Sam are breaking down Disney's Brazilian blockbuster... Jungle Cruise! Is it just Pirates of the Caribbean or does it have more to offer? Was the performance of Paul as an Italian boating business owner culturally sensitive? We'll tell you our thoughts. This episode was originally recorded in 2022 so there is some talk about COVID-19 and some really alarming stories about someone they met in their youth.

From the Vault: Breathing Room (1996)
Dan tracked down a VHS of one of Paul's earliest films. We recorded a hilarious episode all about it, left it on a hard drive, and forgot about it for a year and a half. Before we return with regular episodes, we uncovered this lost gem, gave it a dusting, and are ready to share it you, Little Pauls. We talk about pee puddles, Brason Coopman, and much more. Get into it!
