The Vinyl Floor

Episode 15 (Our Favorite Films of 2024)

We're breaking new ground for The Vinyl Floor and doing an exclusively film related podcast. The boys discuss their favorite 20 films of 2024, many of which were seen together at various cinemas around Atlanta. Shouts out the Plaza Theatre, where you can find at least one of us pretty much every week. Why top 20 when most podcasts do top 10 or top 5? Well, because we wanted to (SOAD reference) and there are no rules.

Episode 14 (Our Favorite Albums of 2024)

...aaaand we're back! It only took about a year, but we felt like we at least needed to gather to discuss some of the records that we've been listening to the most this year. We also will be discussing our top 20 films of 2024 on the next episode. Oh yeah, and like a lot of podcasts with a premise/idea we've decided to loosen that up so you'll be hearing us talk more candidly about what we've been listening to, watching, consuming, etc...we're figuring it out. Link to our Top 2024 Spotify playlist: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/358eum8ItALC26i7t17Nq4?si=d5185814cd604f68
