Host of the podcast Almost Plausible, where I and a couple of friends take an ordinary object (such as a paperclip, eggnog, or a toilet brush) and come up with a movie plot based on that object.

  • Fuck 'em. Fuck 'em all. If they want to fight so badly, they can fight each other directly. Don't get the rest of us involved.

  • What do you create?
  • I have a podcast that I create with a couple of friends. We take an ordinary object—such as a ceiling fan, or a paper clip, or a toilet brush—and we create a movie plot based on that object. The show is called Almost Plausible, and can be found wherever you listen to podcasts.

    Original comment:

    The image on the right is not the interior of the structure on the left. The right is a photo of an initiation well (also at Sintra).

    Anyway, I was bitten by a racoon once. Everything turned out alright in the end for both me and the racoon.

    This year it was Shep's turn to choose the location for the Halloween episode, and he chose a diner because it's indoors. While enjoying their meals, the trio share stories centered around bones. Luckily, being indoors this year means no harm should manage to befall them. And yet, there seem to be an awful lot of sirens outside...

    Welcome to Almost Plausible!

    Hey story fans!

    Welcome to Almost Plausible, a podcast where three friends make up stories, usually in the form of a movie plot, where something unexpected takes a central or critical role in the story.

    Each episode starts with a brief pitch session, where we take turns sharing the ideas we’ve come up with for each episode’s topic. After we’ve heard all the pitches, we pick one, develop it, and hopefully come up with a story that’s at least almost plausible.

    It's fun, funny, and it all happens in under an hour.

    The show is free, and new episodes drop every other Tuesday. You can subscribe wherever you regularly listen to podcasts, such as: Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or directly via our RSS feed.
