Episode 3: Character Mappin'!

Edgar and Benner decompress about the death of Kobe Bryant, his daughter Gianna, and seven others, before discussing his extremely complicated legacy. Sorry, the guys love NBA basketball and this is extremely weird timing for an episode 2. Jump to the 7:00 mark if this will be triggering for you.Then they jump back into working on their pilot. They discuss whodunits as a genre, why they should be the ones to write this, tone, themes, and begin breaking down their main character, a star basketball player desperate to save their school's program in the face of an oppressive school dean. Then, they tease two topics for next week's episode: 1) Character maps, and 2) Should this show be animated?Follow us on Twitter at @thats_the_show for various updates and links to things we talk about on the show!
