Joe Findlay and Todd Murray Have been friends for over 30 years. They met in the summer prior to Grade 1, when Todd moved into the same apartment building as Joe. Tod had stopped a bigger kid from beating Joe up.
The podcast was created after Joe and Todd were reunited after years of losing contact. They ran into each other at the gym that they both were members of. Joe pitched the idea of a podcast while watching the movie Marked for Death (1990) and remembering the fun they had watching movies together and talking through them.
