Pointless Spin-Off

About Pointless Spin-Off

In a world of endless sequels, prequels and extended universes, one film history / improv comedy podcast will attempt to create the most pointless cinematic spin-offs imaginable. Join comedians Sonny Yang and Rory Machell each episode as they improvise a wholly original tale about a nameless and unimportant background character from a random movie or series. 9 times out of 10, the character dies!

   Season 4, Episode 4 - Bullsucker: The Whistleblower Saga

   Pointless Spin-Off is taking a mid-season break but we just thought we'd drop an episode for our adoring fan(s) as a token of our appreciation and to let you know we haven't forgotten about you. Enjoy our improvised spin-off to The Whistleblower (2010) / bittersweet ode to Doug Walker the Nostalgia Critic and we'll catch you in the second half of the season!

   Season 4, Episode 3 - The Grabbed

   In our very 51st episode, join us as we journey to Rory's ancestral homeland and embark on a good old fashioned hard-boiled detective caper with all the hallmarks of a classic neo-noir thriller: saxophone music, someone's bare asshole, a GameFAQs guide, etc. Inspired by the 2012 film 'Grabbers'.
