The Connect

5,285

Jason Concepcion and Shea Serrano discuss two movies and the things that connect them. Each episode will focus around a theme. That theme can be anything from characters from similar movievations, merciless mentors, and killer robots. They will then break down the connections of that main theme through a series of segments and games to share their love for not only these two movies, but cinema and its themes as a whole.

    Shea is a first ballot HOF human and fairly decent podcaster too. Show some love and support all the cool content he makes. From Villains to With a Pencil to The Connect with Jason, you can’t go wrong.

    Water in the Background
    That moment is a standout among standouts. These guys are so great and I love that Steve chimes in too. I laugh with every episode even when I haven’t seen the movies they’re talking about, and I loved Villains and John Wick too. it’s a no brainer 5/5 from me.
  • janaemm
    Love it!
    This podcast is awesome, especially if you love movies. The hosts are hilarious. I find myself literally laughing out loud while listening.

    I jumped in because 10 things is a GREAT movie. The hosts’ dynamic kept me coming back for more episodes!
  • murkyterror
    A few things
    1. Please don’t leave Jason! I love the connect and binge mode, and any pod you guest on. Love your voice and insights - I hope at least you comeback for guest spots. 2. I never listened to season 2 (sorry I haven’t seen John Wick!) but I really liked the concept of season 1 villains and I just started listening to season 3 and I really like it as well. 3. Continue The Connect but also, BRING BACK VILLAINS. I love a good movie villain!

    These guys are hilarious! :)
    Shea and Jason laughing is contagious! Love listening to them even if I haven’t seen the movies they’re taking about.
  • Yeshaiya
    Skip this pod
    Shea is one of the worst things about the Ringer, don’t waste your time on any of his pods.

    I know it’s from the book but Robb Stark—don’t go to the guys house you betrayed when your wolf won’t go in. I love Jason and Shea. They are the best!

  • Admiral Anonymous
    Hilarious!
    This show cracks me up!
  • CBoFoSho
    Shea is not good
    I didn’t subscribe to this but the ringer just auto-subscribed me. Stop trying to make Shea happen. He’s not good. Jason is great though.
  • marc_t_11
    Even if you don’t care about/haven’t seen the movies, this podcast is extremely entertaining!
    Jason and Shea were two of my favorite ringer pod guests/hosts. I actually emailed Shea before this launched and told him I needed a pod done by the two of them, and here we are. They are two of the best voices in podcasting, literally and figuratively. Hilarious, insightful, just fun. As the title says, I haven’t seen a chunk of the movies they’ve used and I still thoroughly enjoy the pod.
  • K.Campo
    Jason and Shea ARE THE BEST
    I love this podcast but the audio keeps repeating or missing little statements from the hosts. Hope Producer Steve fixes it for future shows. Other than that, keep it coming!!
  • Shogun of Harlem
    Jason and Shea are magic together
    Stay for the end scenes
  • Brian_draws
    the best
    Two of the funniest guys talking about movies. that’s all you need to know
  • Something Clever 54321
    So funny and fun
    Cannot miss this podcast. Better if you have seen the movies but if you haven’t you’ll still laugh your ass off
  • Bernada
    🔥🔥🔥
    Absolutely love this podcast.
  • Black Kween
    President of the Shea + Jason Fan Club
    All you need to know is that Shea somehow connected (spoiler alert?) Jodeci to Ex Machina. I feel seen. 🙌🏾
  • Harvey Lime
    Best podcast segment
    In the connections competition, You have invented the best podcast gimmick of all time.
  • Listener #71,249
    This is the most enjoyable podcast ever created
    Shea quite literally exists on a plane beyond that of normal humans. Not much more to say than that. Oh, except that Jason is also a hilarious, brilliant legend. I love this podcast
  • Polyester Brown
    Love That These Guys Are Doing A Pod Together
    I have always enjoyed hearing Jason and Shea on other Ringer podcasts, each are quick-witted and make interesting observations and it's brilliant that they dreamt up a pod that feature these talents under the guise of a movie recap show.
  • petejman
    So good
    I could listen to Jason and shay talk about anything
  • Berkshirebill
    Shea is petty
    Come for the movie talk...stay for the pettiness!

    Mean mentors
    LEGIT HAD TO LEAVE MY DESK DURING JASONS MIRANDA IMPRESSION LOLLLOLOL
  • Put some respeck on my name
    Bruh this is fire
    Just listen man even the movies I haven’t seen are still good.
  • Trevjmas
    Two friends explaining to you who’s opinion is better
    This podcast has such an extreme momentum throughout, that when it is over, you wonder why it is not 3 hours long.
  • ChoachT
    Awesome
    This makes no sense, but somehow it does. It’s random and awesome. I love it even when Shea takes the L. Keep up the great work.
  • Kile433
    A Perfect Podcast
    This is not hyperbole. Emmy-Winning host Jason Concepcion and 3-time NYT Best Selling Author Shea Serrano come together you create a perfect podcast. Both combining sharp wit with cavernous film knowledge, Jason and Shea break down and compare two completely different movies that share themes (like in Episode two, titled “I thought this computer was my friend”, when they compare and contrast 2018’s Upgrade to Ex Machina from 2014.) You’ll laugh, you’ll cry, you’ll be begging for more.
  • craigk0406

    Too Good
    This podcast is good. In fact, it’s too good. It’s so good that when I’m finished, I’m going to walk right into the studio and 5 star the podcast. Because that’s what I do. I restore the balance to podcasts. And this is what I would like from you right now. Help keep the balance by giving this podcast 5 stars.
  • AveryRyan
    An Instant Classic
    Shea and Jason are individually two of my favorite voices in the world of culture commentary, so to get the together on one podcast feels like my dream secret Santa gift. Their debates (bickering) feel straight out my sibling group text in all the best ways - can’t recommend enough!!
  • Ty the creator
    Shea was robbed
    someone needs to tell steve to stop rigging the connection contest for jason
  • Dbhhhhhhh
    Smart and fun
    Intelligent conversation about movies with two friends who are pros at what they do. Look forward to it every week.

    Perfect in every way
    And if you think otherwise You’re the enemy
  • Truewu
    Shea and Jason are a strong duo
    Two smart and funny dudes
  • Hunter Wulff
    okay but listen
    listening to this podcast is like witnessing two guys doing that fusion thing in Dragonball Z except sometimes they bicker while they’re dancing and it’s perfect
  • Millenial Mama
    Just subscribe and enjoy.
    This podcast sparks joy, like everything Shea and Jason do.
  • evan from wisconsin
    This podcast “shot it’s shot”
    We are inundated with podcasts that are looking for the special spice.. Shea and Jason don’t have to even try to pull together this charm and shine. They effortlessly talk movies and what connects us all to one another and the movies that play out in our lives. They shot their shot and it was a triple!
