Showing Promise
Showing Promise is a general-discussion podcast hosted by Matthew Cementina. I had the idea back in 2021 to create a podcast, and in 2022 kind of actually sort of started working on it. If you know me, you know I talk quite a lot. So it seemed like a logical project. It’s often on music, and I like the idea of going that direction, but I also just enjoy talking to people. So it’s nothing too specific at the moment. Frequently colorful. Sometimes crass. I don’t have a release schedule. I post them as I complete them. To heck with the algorithm. I do it for fun. Please check it out if you are interested in listening to my friends and I or sometimes just myself wax eloquent about anything and everything. Thank you!

Who You Gonna Call with Lano Pecina
Woah! It's episode 2! For geeks around the globe, just hearing the words "episode two" can trigger a lot of unpleasant memories, but I'm hoping to deliver a much more enjoyable experience.
For the second episode of Showing Promise, my guest Lano Pecina and I discuss a few flicks that we watched over a weekend, all of which had a "throwback" feel to them. First starting with the fourth (or third depending on how you feel about it) installment of the Ghostbusters franchise, Ghostbusters: Afterlife. Next, another movie that is fourth in its series, and was highly anticipated by millennial dudes everywhere, The Matrix Resurrections. How did we feel about that one, you ask? All I can say is, we felt strongly about it. And last, we cover a blockbuster super hero story that hit us right in the feels, taking us back to the early days of Marvel movies, in Spider-Man: No Way Home.
*Be warned! This episode contains SPOILERS for all these films.*
This one was a doozy to record, but so much fun. It's a beast of a show, so thank you for giving it a listen. If you happen to be driving across the country, this will help you get about halfway.
Big thank you to Lano for talking nerdy with me. Let's do another!
