During one early episode of The Affair's Current, with my co-host Adam Barrett, I mentioned that we had co-hosted a movie podcast together in high school. I had thought it lost to the mists of digital time, and likely for the best.
However, poking around, I was able to find it still existing on the internet. So, in the spirit of generosity and in light of the lack of new content in the near future, I present:
The Made Men Tell No Tales Podcast
If you ever wanted to hear an (even more) awkward, teenage me talk about movies, you are in great luck. I haven't actually gone back and listened to the archives, but who knows what awaits the brave who do!

Message from Carter: Patreon (and a Small Update)
In preparation for some (hopefully) upcoming projects in the new year, I have decided to set a Patreon account for myself here: https://www.patreon.com/cartervance
All of my content will always remain free to the extent that I am able to control that, but if you've ever felt the work posted here, or the other stuff I have done online, was worth something, consider pitching a couple of dollars my way. The Patreon is also a good way to keep up with my different writings and other projects on the go at any time, outside of the podcast.
The podcast is currently on a hiatus as I will be out of Canada until December. However, I do plan to come back in the new year, perhaps with a reformatting, in order to get a better produced and more regularly-released show. I will also be looking for guests and co-hosts on a variety of topics, so, if you would like to contribute, hit me up either here or via email.
Thank you to all who have listened so far.
Best,
Carter Vance

Juntae would like to issue the following correction regarding his statements on John Bolton and Mike Pompeo in this episode:
"On John Bolton and Mike Pompeo, Juntae meant there was a lot more concern over the influence of Mike Pompeo in the current Trump cabinet than the others when he was first appointed earlier this year, but what we are witnessing is the opposite of those concerns."
