In this episode of The Middle-aged Bodcast, Raging Rich and T.A. Shelano welcome Griffin – host of the “Reboot Deboot” podcast, author, and Twitch streamer – for a lively and honest conversation about creativity, remakes, and turning frustration into fuel.
Griffin shares how he channels anger and irritation into something productive, whether that’s podcasting without a safety net (no edits!), writing fiction, or streaming live to his audience. They explore the origins of Reboot Deboot, the craft behind reviewing remakes, and what makes a reimagined film truly worthwhile.
Also in this episode:
- Using rage as a creative tool (instead of bottling it up)
- The realities of writing and the messy road to finding your voice
- Why some remakes work – and others miss the mark
- How modern reboots can reframe old themes for new audiences
- The myth of sacred source material in Hollywood
It’s an episode about honesty, hustle, and holding a mirror up to pop culture – with plenty of laughs (and a bit of righteous shouting) along the way.
