Bad Storytellers :: Episode 21 :: Ace in the Hole
Bad Storytellers is a podcast about writing and things that are written. Join four friends on the road to becoming professional writers as they unleash new stories on-air, criticize each others’ work, discuss pop culture influences, and conceive on-the-spot trailers for imaginary films.
The gang gets together this week to discuss Baseball’s history in Star Trek, Doug’s celebrity as The Kill Bill Kid in Tusk, Hearts of Iron, and Soviet hockey. Liam has some brainstorming to do, Max shows us what the aristocratic life is like in his story, and Josh finishes chapter five of his novel in progress. We also review our first ever fan submission!
