Dad Movies Podcast

Our race to show Dad every single Fast and the Furious movie continues with the dark horse of the series, Tokyo Drift. Dad falls in love with a Fast and the Furious movie for the first time and John-Michael rediscovers his love for this movie.  We gush over Justin Lin. Dad uses Tokyo drift as a verb. John-Michael reads way too deeply into Kid Rock's "Bawitdaba." Everyone loves Han. It's a great ti...

This week on Dad Movies we continue with our watch-through of the Fast and the Furious series with John Singleton's 2 Fast 2 Furious.  We talk plot holes, whether rats will actually eat through a human body, make fun of Ja Rule, sing the praises of Ludacris, and talk about how these films build on one another. It's a wild western set in Miami's car culture and Dad has questions.  Theme song by Luk...

This week on Dad Movies we dive into one of the greatest Batman/James Bond/Buggs Bunny movies ever made, The Mask of Zorro. John-Michael rants about why Anthony Hopkins is overrated, Dad doesn't think Antonio Banderas is as pretty as Orlando Bloom, and we both are surprised we haven't watched this one more.  It's a swashbuckling good time on the latest episode of Dad Movies. Theme song by Luke Ben...

This week on Dad Movies we're diving head first into the gore-soaked world of 2021's Mortal Kombat reboot. We talk seeing the original in 1995, the difference between fun gore and traumatizing gore, and Dad somehow manages to work the philosophy of Carl Jung into the conversation.  This is also the first episode with our new theme song from Luke Bentham of The Dirty Nil. My god did he do a great j...

This week we talk about one of the Bond family's favorite movies, That Thing You Do. Join us for a discussion about the difference between the best movies ever made and favorite movies, a tribute to Fountain's of Wayne's Adam Schlesinger, and Tom Hanks' greatest achievement on film. Dad has lust in his heart in this episode like Jimmy Carter in the 80s.

This week we introduce Dad to The Fast and The Furious, a movie he thought he was going to hate. We talk ghost trucks, not killing women to advance the plot for male characters, FAMILY, and Dad learns he has to watch 9 more of these, including the spin off. If you like what you hear head over to iTunes and leave us a 5-star review.

This is coming out a few days after Easter but like the savior your interest will rise on the third day (of the week) Wednesday! Dad breaks down what has apparently been his favorite Easter movie for over 20 years, Men In Black. I know we said this wasn't going to be a religious podcast but sometimes the Rev. has a pitch too good to pass up. We're 100% serious, someone might get saved this week.

This week John-Michael introduces Bill to one of the finest modern westerns ever made, Hell or High Water. We talk class, generational poverty, character actors and T-bone steaks. Come for the conversation, stay for Dad explaining how privileged white Americans are the modern Roman empire.

This week on Dad Movies we talk about one Dad's favorite movies, Patton. We talk about our Uncle Jean who served under Patton, the difference between how our generations experienced war, and get nerdy about cinematography. In honor of Patton being 3 hours long, this episode is 90 minutes. Follow us on Twitter and leave us a review on iTunes if you're feeling kind.

  This week on Dad Movies is everyone's favorite or least favorite movie, The Princess Bride. Learn how people like us make it hard to like the movie, we get deep about true love, and Dad explains how the whole film revolves around a false flag operation.  So sit back listen to our podcast about a movie inside a book inside a movie. See? We promised no sports this time.  

This week on Dad Movies we tackle the world's great hockey/golf mash up film, Happy Gilmore. JMB spends too much time talking about populism and Bill tells some incredible stories about going to the Masters as a kid. From tales about Tom Weiskopf and Juan Antonio "Chi-Chi" Rodríguez to the time Lee Trevino threw a fake snake at Jack Nicklaus during a game, he's on a roll. So pull up a chair and ge...
