Greeting to all you Shatters! Can you believe it, Stanky "Jon" Jankowitz and Nucky "Keith" C. are back in the saddle again. The band is back together for our first reunion tour. And today we are coming to you live from the Shat International Film Studio and Equestrian Center with a brand new episode about the creative hooligan, technological guru, and murderer, Eadweard Muybridge. This guy was a seminal figure in early motion picture technology. He was a renowned photographer who worked with railroad magnate Leland Stanford to answer the question; is a horse ever completely aloft as it gallops. In the process, he invented the zoopraxiscope and helped set pictures in motion! Oh... and he also happened to murder his 21yo wife's lover! So hop on this wild, galloping podcast with us; we hope you enjoy the ride.
