Episode 14 is out!

That's right! It's out! The title speaks right and true.

So far, we're ridiculously proud of this episode. If you haven't seen it yet, I'm going to talk in vague terms but -- we built a ramp (I'll let Justin write about that in the near future)! Not only did we build a ramp, but we paid an homage to one of my personal favorite films of all time. We'll let you figure out what movie, exactly, but I'll give you a hint and say that after I saw it I was pretty much convinced I was Peter Pan for at least a year or two afterward. I'm just saying.

Aside from that, a little fun insight on this episode:

--The cow scene was shot SUNDAY before we released it -- today. We searched desperately for cows until we found a ranch that let us film in front of it -- it ended up matching the location we needed EXACTLY and turned out to be one of my favorite scenes we've ever done. Marilyn (Cherry) is pure brilliance in it, and I can't stop saying, "Well because they're COWS, David!"

--We shot the opener (Chase and David discovering the town) twice. The first time was simpler and significantly more boring. The second time we improvised us walking through the woods (the dialogue, up until the zoom out of the town is all improvised) and did the dramatic pull-back shot that helped reveal the amazing town that we shot in. Which, once again, thanks to Guy Smith for letting us use it.

--The Tall Child Actor is Dashiell's(Crew Guy/Editor/Cinematographey/ALMOST EVERY EXTRA) brother. He's HUGE.

--The baby is named Ayla and is Marilyn's daughter. Remember when Cherry was pregnant in David's Bad Day? Well, Ayla's the product of that. Time flies, huh? She's also an amazing little actress and, if you watch closely, is the same baby who scared Chase at Burger King.

--No Drew Lannings were harmed in the filming of the ramp.

--We didn't sleep all night making this episode.

And that, as they say, is all.

Check out the episode on YouTube, if only to leave a quick comment so it bumps us up in the rotation. You can do that by clicking here.

Or, if you'd rather just stay on the site -- click episodes, watch the episode, and tell us what you think.

Thanks, guys! Enjoy!
