## **Matinee Minutiae: The Cinema Deep-Dive for True Movie Nerds** Ever found yourself ignoring the plot of a movie because you were too busy wondering why that one character actor looks so familiar? Or maybe you've paused a film just to look up the exact month it was released to see if it coincided with a forgotten snack food launch? If you live for the "Wait, was that...?" moments, **Matinee Minutiae** is the podcast you’ve been searching for. --- ### **What is Matinee Minutiae?** Hosted by **DJ Starsage** and **Matt Burlingame**, this isn't just another "two guys talking about movies" show. *Matinee Minutiae* is a deep-dive expedition into the DNA of film history.

Whether it's discussing the legacy of Elvira or debating the best 1980s Halloween candy, the conversation extends far beyond the microphone. ### **The Matinee Experience** Imagine sitting down with
