    450 | After Midnight – It

    A long book deserves a long conversation and Michael and Jess are here to provide one. We're talking about Stephen King's It: the good, the bad, and the head-scratching. We also talk about adaptations (ever heard of Woh?) and get into lots of spoilers for the recent Welcome to Derry series (but that's at the very end and easy to avoid if you haven't seen the show yet and want to remain unspoiled)

    434 | A Tribute to William Bruce West

    Our dear friend and frequent podcast guest William Bruce West passed away on April 12. We miss him dearly. Part of the grieving process has been to talk about our friend and share memories of him, so the podcast community that Will was such an important part of has put together this tribute episode. There are personal reminiscences, but also many, many clips of Will's appearances on various shows through the years. After Lunch is so pleased to present this episode, but we can't leave unrecognized that it was entirely produced - from initial concept to final edit - by Adam Pope, Will's regular podcasting partner these last few years. Thank you so much, Adam. And Godspeed, Will. Rest in Peace

    433 | The Cast List Card Game

    It's Game Night! We've formed two teams of movie fans: Jaime Hood, Joanna from Bloody Popcorn, Noel Thingvall, and Rob Graham on one team; Becky Tyler, Pax Holley, Jacob Bean-Watson, and Ben Graham on the other. We're playing The Cast List, a card game in which Michael acts as host, giving each team a list of movies to see if they can name an actor who has been in all those movies. Some of them are easy, some of them are quite hard. Play along and see how many you get!
