John Carpenter tried to warn us

Slight delay in uploading the latest IMMP #podcast, but rest assured it will be available soon. And we think it will be worth the wait!

We keep getting emails offering to help our #podcast achieve MARKET DOMINATION. Yeah. Our little show where I make my son watch #movies from 60 years ago is clearly motivated by a lust for Market Domination.

Just sat down with a cup of coffee, ready to finish editing the big Episode 200 of the @immproject.bsky.social podcast … and we lose power. Well, at least it waited until after I’d made the coffee. Priorities must be maintained.

At IMMP headquarters, May was all about #games from HUMONGOUS ENTERTAINMENT. Our May 18th #podcast episode dove into Freddi Fish, Spy Fox, and Backyard Baseball. And this Monday (June 1) Ian and Matthew confronted Darkness and weather calamity with PAJAMA SAM. www.immproject.com/search?term=...

My boy @itemcrafting.bsky.social and I do a whole podcast about 20th century pop culture. It started because when he was a little kid we showed him old movies and he loved them.

Schedule note: Because our latest episode was delayed a full week -- it came out today instead of last Monday -- we're going to resume our biweekly schedule from here. In today's episode Ian and Matthew talk about IN SEARCH OF...On A Boat! Two weeks from today, another episode will set sail.

If you’re In Search Of the new episode of the IMMP podcast — don’t worry. Matthew is on a day-job-related trip, so there’s a slight delay. It will be out this week. Is Matthew also researching this week’s topic? …maybe?

For the IMMP #podcast I need to select several episodes of The Love Boat. Is the proper pluralization "Love Boats" or "Loves Boat"?
