I’m a proud OSU grad, and a big Columbus and Cleveland sports fan (plus the S.F. 49ers, long story). My wife Hope and I are Columbus film critics at MaddWolf.com and the Screening Room podcast, and we recently made our own movie, a horror comedy called Obstacle Corpse which is now available for streaming! You can often find us tooling around Grandview on our Harley, at Byrne’s Pub, Gateway Film Center, or on FOX 28’s Good Day Columbus every Friday morning at 9:30 with movie reviews. And if you still can’t find us, we must have run off to Key West again!
