Late Fees with Matt and James

Late Fees with Matt & Jameswww.spreaker.com
A tv & film, pop culture nostalgia-centric podcast hosted by Matt Catanzano and James III (It's also a live show. If we’re ever allowed outside again.)

Listen to these nostalgic grown men who have too many opinions about the fringe films, tv shows, music, and merchandise from their childhoods all the way to their last week-hoods. Along with special guests Matt & James dare ask the hard-hitting questions: does M. Night Shyamalan deserve more chances, how attracted to the female Gremlin should we be, and was Ecto-Cooler ever good??? (yes, very, no)

Upcoming Guests include:
Mark Saul (All That, Grey's Anatomy)
Mike Scollins (Late Night with Seth Meyers, SNL, Greener Grass)
Ryan Gaul (The Last O.G., Bajillion Dollar Propertie$, Drunk History)
Connor Ratliff (Dead Eyes Podcast, George Lucas Talk Show)
Tara Grammy (Persia's Got Talent)
