HARD OUT is a 60-minute ticking time bomb of a podcast hosted by Chris and Jay Thornton (professional screenwriters and filmmakers of the upcoming indie feature CACTUS JACK). Aptly named, each and every episode abruptly ends at the 60-minute mark—no matter what's going down as the buzzer sounds! The podcast includes several subseries, to include "Hard Out: My Favorite Movie "(in which we have a guest or guests on to geek out over their all-time favorite film) and "Hard Out: Fast Friends," a social experiment concocted to beat the algorithms and expand our echo chamber by sitting down and talking to every single one of our 1,000+ facebook friends in order to get to know them better (or at all).
