2 Fast 2 Forever: The Fast and Furious Podcast

After our three-week commentary-fueled semi-hiatus, we're back to talk about Fast & Furious 6 with Ify Nwadiwe! We share updates from the past month, check on our mailbag, and officially open the voting on the 2 Fast 2 Forever Hall of Fame! (Vote now at cageclub.me/bracket.) We then *finally* manage to escape from The Pearl in the 2 Fast 2 Furious Minute (53:30) before Ify joins us (58:55) to talk...

We're wrapping up our brief heist lap break with the third of three #2F2F Commentaries. We're mixing it up and going in release order, not chronological, to talk about The Fast and The Furious: Tokyo Drift! We love this movie so much we watched this one an *extra* time this lap, so join us (once again) "in real time" as we overnight parts... to?... Japan. Fire up The Fast and the Furious: Tokyo Dr...

We're continuing our brief break from the heist lap for our #2F2F Commentary interlude, and next up is (you guessed it) 2 Fast 2 Furious! We're in the midst of breaking this movie down, minute by minute, but it's once again time to join us "in real time" as we watch the movie (again) and share our thoughts (again). Load up 2 Fast 2 Furious (in whatever form you can watch it), sync up when and wher...

We're taking a brief break from our heist lap for a three-week #2F2F Commentary interlude, and we're starting with (what else?) The Fast and The Furious! We've talked about this movie once or twice (or eleven times) before, but join us "in real time" as we watch the movie and share our thoughts. Fire up The Fast and the Furious (in whatever form you can watch it), sync up when and where we say, th...

Our heist team is getting a bit fuzzier this week as this episode's pit stop is all about Muppets Most Wanted! After talking about the latest Fast X casting news (and wondering if we're in too deep or simply on the pulse of Hollywood), we talk about the two-part Young Rock Season 2 finale (from 13:00 to 34:30) then notice there are extra guys in the room (!) in the 2 Fast 2 Furious Minute (36:10)....

We’re back in Rio again with Grand Rindner to talk about Fast Five! But first: lots of Fast and Furious (and Fast X) news! Then, we wonder, “Why Forest Whitaker?” as we discuss Young Rock (18:30) and spend another 60 seconds with the rat in the 2 Fast 2 Furious Minute (26:45). Then, we welcome in Grant to talk about Fast Five (32:25). We look at the Vin vs. Rock feud (which Grant has written about...

Our heist lap continues with our first patron pick of Thunderbolt and Lightfoot, starring Clint Eastwood and Jeff Bridges and chosen for us by Justin Kleinman! After sharing brief Doctor Strange spoilers (from about 5:25 to 7:15), we do a recent TV roundup and share Joe's hyper-specific new merch idea. Then, we admire the work Joseph Lee Anderson is putting in as Rocky Johnson in Young Rock (28:20...

Our heist lap continues as we return to a core installment of the franchise (and a competent crew!) with Fast & Furious. After Joe talks about his exciting weekend, we crack open the mailbag to discuss who could play Papa Shaw, and then we sort through the Fast X drama and wonder who will direct Fast & Furious 11. Then, we talk about the best Young Rock episode of the season so far (Season 2, Epis...

Vaya con Dios! We're grabbing a parachute and an ex-president mask as we talk about the Keanu Reeves and Patrick Swayze film Point Break. First, though, we need to sort out the #FastX drama, so we sift through Vin Diesel's Instagram posts and Justin Lin's cordial farewell as we wonder, "Who's going to direct Fast X now?" Then, we get a good "middle Dewey" story on Young Rock (43:25) (Season 2, Epi...

Welcome to the Fast X era! John Brooks (Hard to Believe, 1999: The Podcast) had never seen a Fast & Furious movie. We fixed that with 2 Fast 2 Furious. Before John joins us, though, we talk about the new name for the next F&F movie before discussing Young Rock (Season 2, Episode 6) (24:05) and Carter Verone's overall weirdness and villainy in the 2 Fast 2 Furious Minute (29:55). Then, John joins u...

Heat is the longest movie we've watched in a long time for the podcast, so our episode is also the longest one we've done in a long time. Joe shares a celebrity encounter before we have a spoiler-filled conversation about Season 1 of Severance (15:30 to 24:40) and get reminded that we know exactly where Han was during 1F1F. We wonder who Brie Larson could play in F10 and reveal the results of our...

You son of a bitch, we're in... to Lap 11, and we're joined by Jordan Polan-Clarke to talk about The Fast and the Furious and kick off our heist lap! After brief (spoiler-free) chat about Morbius (and Tyrese's role), we visit "high school Dewey" in the newest episode of Young Rock ("In the Dark," Season 2, Episode 4) (25:55) before wondering what, exactly, Roman was busted for in the 2 Fast 2 Furi...

We're closing out our Shaw Brothers lap and welcoming in Lap 11 in our mechanic-prescribed Lap 10 Tune-Up / Relap / Recap. But first, we tease a new Patreon perk (sort of), talk about the narrative momentum we're getting in Young Rock (Season 2, Episode 3, starting at 22:45), and enter "the world's blandest night club" in the 2 Fast 2 Furious Minute (31:25). Then, we head to Samoa to get refueled...

We're winding down Lap 10 by heading to outer space for another ride as we're joined by Julian Lytle (Critics Choice Association, idobi.com) to talk about F9! First, though, we talk about Daniela Melchior joining the franchise and a Reddit theory that suggests Dom has been in a coma since the end of the first movie. We then chat about Young Rock (Season 2, Episode 2) (18:30) and welcome in a "new...

Before we close out the Shaw Brothers lap, we're taking one more journey back to the O.G. Shaw Brothers and talking about Five Deadly Venoms! After leafing through more terrible YouTube comments, we talk about the Season 2 premiere of Young Rock (18:25-24:20) before diving into the 2 Fast 2 Furious Minute (24:20) to see Brian play a game of chicken with Fonzie. Then, we welcome in John Siino (host...

We're headed back to Samoa -- "The island will provide, brother." -- to talk about Hobbs & Shaw with Michelle Farley! After sharing some new TV recommendations, we get into spoiler-heavy conversations about The Endgame (Season 1, Episode 3) (13:54 to 17:35), The Afterparty (Season 1) (17:40 to 24:37), and The Batman (24:37 to 35:43), so if you haven't seen those yet and don't want them spoiled, sk...

We're heading back to Jason Statham's first on-screen role with patron Lane Middleton's pick of Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels! Before we talk about all things Guy Ritchie and "Bacon", Joe tells us how his dad went full Two-Lane Blacktop before we chat about the new episode of The Endgame (Season 1, Episode 2) and dive into the 2 Fast 2 Furious Minute (25:00) to see the down-and-back race kic...

We've got a supersized episode this week as Josh Buckley (Whole Lotta Wolves) joins us to talk about The Fate of the Furious! After chatting about pool tables and Pokemon cards, we try to figure out what "Frozen Furious" is and hear what you have to say about The Transporter. We also correct our "snap a speedo" mistake (maybe) and talk about the ways we'd love to see Brie Larson added to the Fasti...

We're kicking off a three movie crossover event with Mike Manzi of Third Time's A Charm by talking about The Transporter! After chatting about Oscars season, we re-emphasize our Patreon pledge drive and talk about plans to cover some new shows coming to NBC in the next month. Then, the Buster officially becomes a gearhead in the 2 Fast 2 Furious Minute (35:50) and we welcome in Mike to talk about...

It's really about time you tried that Belgian ale because we're headed back to Abu Dhabi to talk about Furious 7 with Brian Rodriguez! After catching up on new TV recommendations and Joey's big week, we wonder what time of year Sean traveled to Japan and dive down a sports rabbit hole (which serves as a prelude to our Patreon-exclusive bonus episode about Friday Night Lights). Then, we finally rea...

We're headed to the bayou this week with Nate Milton (The Rocky Maivia Picture Show) for Homefront, selected for us via Patreon by Jake Freer! Before we meet Gator, though, we talk about Jason Momoa joining the Fastiverse, talk about some new TV recommendations, and tease a new lap idea and a new t-shirt idea. Then, we enter the #2F2F Minute (35:00) to wonder what Bilkins really thinks of Brian an...

We're drifting through time once again this week as Reid Vanier (Doctor DC Podcast) joins us to talk about The Fast and the Furious: Tokyo Drift! After some faucet talk, we wonder if Leon could be Kenny Linder's son before talking about an absolute yawn of a 2 Fast 2 Furious minute (28:30) that makes us wonder whether Brian and Roman have ever gone running and gunning. Then, we board a red-eye to...

Jason Statham plays a farmer named Farmer in In the Name of the King: A Dungeon Siege Tale, and we're here to tell you all about it. After more kitten talk (and the sharing of kitten pictures, which I guess you can't see because this is an audio medium), we share a quick update to the #2F2F format and then learn a lot about Jordana Brewster. (Or do we?) Then, we remember Elian Gonzalez in the 2 Fa...

We’re (sort of accidentally) journeying closer to Fast & Furious 6 than ever before this week as we welcome in Meriah Doty Treviño! Before Meriah joins us, though, we talk about the Steelers, kittens, and Racer Trash before imagining some YouTube comment-inspired vanity plates we could adorn our cars with. We run through a busy “On the Streets” segment of topics on the periphery of the Fastiverse...

We're tapping the O.G. Shaw Brothers well for another classic this week as we cover The Eight Diagram Pole Fighter. We talk New Year's Eve stuff and debut a new segment before heading to the 2 Fast 2 Furious Minute (23:05) to spend a LOT of time parsing out where people live in 2F2F. Then, we avenge our families as we break down The Eight Diagram Pole Fighter (42:00). We wonder: Is Gordon Liu the...
