This is a crossover episode between The Amelia Project and Greater Boston, recorded live at The London Podcast Festival! What happens when these two fiction podcasts meet? Greater Boston acting legend Mark Whalberg hates fellow Greater Boston acting legend Matt Damon. One of the last things Mark Whalberg did before Matt Damon died was fistfight Matt Damon on a doomed, speeding train. But then Matt Damon sacrificed his life to save the passengers on that train. And so now Matt Damon is no more, but the memory of Matt Damon lives on. Now Matt Damon is not remembered as much more than merely an actor; he is Matt Damon, Transit Hero. And Mark Whalberg? He’s known as just a survivor floundering in Matt Damon’s shadow, which grows taller even in death. But Mark Whalberg has a plan. Mark Whalberg can die just like Matt Damon. Mark Whalberg is going to visit The Amelia Project to fake his own death and live on as someone who will receive the respect, accolades, and attention he righteously deserves. Dying and being reborn with the Amelia process will be Mark Whalberg’s greatest role yet. Featuring Alan Burgon, Hemi Yeroham, Jeff Van Dreason, Alexander Danner, Felix Trench and Zach Valenti.
