Make the Case
A podcast to help you fall in love with movies all over again. Each week, Conrad Rothbaum and his co-host ShwinnyPooh come on to "Make the Case" -- that is, to put forth a hot take, argument or simply a new perspective -- about a movie they love. For questions or comments please email us at makethecasepodcast@gmail.com and we might read your email on the air! You can also call us and leave us a voicemail at (818) 538-4966 -- we want to hear from you, and may play your voicemail on the podcast! Follow the show on Twitter at @makethecaseshow. Co-hosts Conrad and Shwin are also on Twitter as @csroth and @shwinnypooh respectively, but if you follow them, be prepared for many, many tweets about the New York Knicks on your feed.

Episode 28: Primer
WHAT HAPPENS IF IT ACTUALLY PODS?
This week, we loop back to the 2004 cult classic time travel drama from Shane Carruth, PRIMER. Famously shot for $7000 (we have some thoughts about that) and supposedly containing enough information to articulate its own plot (we have some more thoughts about that), the film is a taut, psychological thriller about the deterioration of a friendship, and we go back to interrogate its existence.
Did we understand this movie? Maybe? Did you? Why are you asking so many questions? Is it because this movie is so confusing? Is that your double standing behind you?
