Experiencing Interruptions?

Pompano Boys and The Gender Reveal Party

A heartwarming gender reveal party for Max and Cassie is crashed and crushed by Max's former friends, the Pompano Boys- two well meaning, wrecking ball degenerates- who have come to warn him that his esteemed mentor is actually a murderer, involved in a globalist conspiracy, in which they are now unwittingly trapped. As Max struggles to get them out of his sight and out of his life, his old side, Streeter, can't help but make an appearance.

And despite that the information is truth, Max refuses to believe the wild tales of his envious, loser old friends, thinking they only want to bring him back down. And this is reinforced by the fact that they accidentally burn his party to the ground.

Rife with comedy and elements of science fiction, Pompano Boys explores issues of identity, manipulation of the masses, and self actualization.

Director Biography - Eric Newcombe, Bradley John Rayson

Eric Newcombe and Brad Rayson are native sons of Pompano Beach. From a young age they were both imbued with the power to spin yarns that could make people laugh really hard.

Eric and Brad met at Pompano High, and would go skateboarding together. They studied Creative Writing at Florida State University (class of 2008), and got into riding motorcycles. They agreed they would seek out what caused the great American sickness of mind and spirit. They threw themselves headlong into it and became utterly lost, Eric riding a bicycle across the US and living the streets of San Francisco, Brad becoming a strung out, hard rocking musician in Tampa.

They reconvened in Pompano a near decade later, got their heads straight, and set to work on a piece that could distill the findings of their search. Though no clear, simple answers were achieved, this series is their effort to illuminate the darkness, starting inside themselves .

Director Statement

Pompano Boys is an episodic crime comedy where AI, the Cabbal, and warring underground factions all compete to control humanity. Their plans, however, will come to not, when Magoosian Heroes- the Pompano Boys - will be like unto a magnificent bowling ball, guided by the hand of fate, plowing through their well constructed fortress of lies.

As they saunter unimpeded through the chaos, the Pompano Boys bring destruction wherever they go, and to whomever they meet, despite their good intentions.

Pompano Boys and the Gender Reveal Party is the pilot episode.
