Today on the pod: a conversation with Kate Constantine in which we review our “25 in 25” movie challenge, which was not so much a challenge but a vague statement of purpose and intention. We’ll explain it. Sort of.

Did you know this podcast is ten years old? Episode 1 of what was then called “The Last Podcast” first aired on January 19th, 2016. I will try to process that next time.

let’s close out 2025 with the little brothers’ favorite songs/movies/tv shows of the year! i will actually write out a list of what’s on this mixtape as soon as i figure out what order it’s actually supposed to be in! (you’ll see, it gets confusing).

thank you, genuinely, for listening to MAKE A MIXTAPE in 2025. and now on to 2026. except for one more retrospective episode coming soon. and then, onward!

It’s a very special episode of MAKE A MIXTAPE today as Zac Parsons and I follow up on a vague idea/joke/threat we made during The Bear podcast and create a mixtape of our Top 5 Lonely Island songs (or other music-adjacent projects). AND ALSO: A major new addition to the MAKE A MIXTAPE MOVIE CANON.

in today’s special episode of MAKE A MIXTAPE, morgan and i break down A COMPLETE UKNOWN, the Bob Dylan biopic we’ve been both anticipating and dreading. given that it’s a movie about the LEAST mysterious years in Dylan’s entire life, watching the movie is probably not essential for following along. but i’d recommend it!
