Watch your step, there's Shattered Glass all over the place! Just kidding folks, we’re having a good time here. There’s no shattered glass like shards anywhere it’s actually just a movie called Shattered Glass.
On this week’s episode, The Spineless Boys dive in to one of the most underrated indies of the early-2000s. No lie here: The Boys talk about Hayden Christensen’s transformative performance as Stephen Glass, a serial manipulator and one of the first “fake news” cases on the internet, plus Bad Ape, their love of outdated machinery, and clipping the mic while screaming about character actors. Five Pinocchios.

Each new film added to the collection is given a Spine Number, making any film NOT in the collection: SPINELESS.
