Welcome to "comPOSERS: The Movie Score Podcast", where three aging, out-of-shape musician friends of dubious talent use a popular medium to talk about film scores and the films they're in, while making fun of one another and occasionally having movie-themed drinks.

Our goal is to find the perfect movie score, and our journey takes us some really weird places. Join us on this bizarre musical trek to...somewhere?

THE PRODUCERS (2005) - Series 14: Episode 202

May 14, 2023

Musical May continues with a movie musical based on a musical based on a movie, and also there are Nazis! It's the most recent incarnation of Mel Brooks' immortal "love" letter to the Third Reich, and more importantly, Jay's pick for the month: The Producers (2005) starring Nathan Lane and Matthew Broderick, with music...

CHICAGO (2002) - Series 14: Episode 201

May 7, 2023

Welcome to Musical May, wherein we discuss movies adapted from the stage — the kind where everybody sings and dances (much to Krueger's confusion, we'll learn). This week, we start the month off with a true banger — and unsurprisingly, Aaron's pick: 2002's Chicago, with music by John Kander and Fred...
