This week on the Exciting and New podcast Jason, Andy and Dana welcome Brian back on the podcast to discuss the 1985 comedy Head Office.  Brian has been talking about this movie since this podcast started, and we felt if we were ever going to get him back, this was the time to do it.   Luckily for him, this trainwreck came out in 1985.  Dark Helmet and Frank Reynolds lead an all start cast, but do...

This week on the Exciting & New podcast, Jason. Andy and Dana discuss the 1985 comedy Mischief.   We all emerge from flu exile to a rather bland comedy written by someone who obviously loved James Dean.   Part Grease, part Back to the Future, and no where near as good as either, as we travel back to the 1950s to see Mrs Travolta naked.  And there is the hilight of the movie.   Spoiler alert.  ...

This Week on the Exciting & New podcast, Jason, Andy and Dana welcome Daniel back on the show as we discuss the 1985 comedy (?), The Man with One Red Shoe.  Tom Hanks, Dabney Coleman, Charles Durning.  What could go wrong.  This.   This could go wrong.  This movie is supposed to be a comedy, but it has few laughs.  It's supposed to be spy thriller, but has no thrills and the spies are all gene...
