For our second movie in the extended Arnold month, The Dicks in the Back Row watched the forgotten 1987 futuristic death match head scratcher: The Hunger Games…wait no….The Running Man!   This is truly a one-of-a-kind movie starring two future governors, a hall of fame NFL running back/ civil rights activist, a rock and roll hall-of-famer, and the former host of Family Feud.   The boys are getting...

The gang is starting Arnold month early with the super violent and steroid infused 80’s classic: Commando! This is the movie that really started it all for "The Arnold" we all know and love today, and the boys have a lot of questions including, but not limited to: what's with the overall look of Bennett, and why would a movie with Arnold have his main enemy be a flabby, fat Freddy Mercury cosplaye...

The Dicks are kicking off the new year with the Boston bank robber hit, The Town.    Few things covered include, the strange modern world we lived in when blackberries were king for 1-2 years before the iPhone, how can Clair afford a townhouse in Boston on an assistant bank manager salary? Why do all Boston movies have their lead tough guy drink cranberry juice? Why didn’t Ben Affleck ever call hi...

Now on to part 2 of the clip show that was too action packed to fit into one special episode, the boys will be back next week with their first movie of the new year.   0:50-7:57              Halloween 8:00-24:18            Halloween III 24:21- 33:26         Hocus Pocus 33:30- 44:08         Under Siege 44:14-45:07          Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 45:10-53:30.         Rocky IV 53:34- 57:37    ...

The boys are still hungover from New Years, so instead enjoy some Dick clips recapping some of our more irrelevant banter from our first year.   1:02-12:28-   Jurassic Park 12:34-20:54- Jurassic Park II 20:59-27:15- Footloose 27:20-30:54- Dirty Dancing 30:57-37:35- Road House 37:38-40:26- Red Dawn 40:30-42:51- Ghost 42:54-52:18- Child’s Play 52:24-53:20- Bride of Chucky   Please rate and review, a...

In our last Christmas movie of the month, the gang covered the Arnold movie that no one revisits: Jingle all the Way. There’s a reason why no one watches this movie… Few things to cover: Is Arnold the Mattress King of Minneapolis? Can Arnold or Max pronounce Minneapolis correctly? How dumb is Arnold’s family; does his son not know what D-0-L-L means, and why doesn’t the son or Rita Wilson not reco...

In week 3 of our Christmas movie month, the gang cuddled up next to a cozy fire, and watched every families favorite Christmas movie about child neglect in Home Alone! Preble keeps up with the tradition of having his computer explode on him, but you will hardly notice with everyone screaming over each, other and asking important questions like: Why does everyone hate Kevin so much? If old man Marl...

In week 2 of our Christmas movie month, the boys ruin the Christmas special that you grew up loving: Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer. You may have read a few liberal Facebook and blog posts about this famous TV special recently, but if you have listened to this show before, you will not be surprised to hear that the gang going way over the top and covering things ranging from homophobia, the Holoca...

The boys are opening up their presents early with the first Christmas movie of the month: 1988’s DIE HAARRDD….and yes, this is a Christmas movie. Don’t you worry; the boys will explain why. Lots to discuss in this episode including: What kind of company holds a Christmas Party on Christmas Eve? What was better the McClain Christmas note on Tony or Hans reading it out loud? Who hired the police eme...

We wrap up our “Episode of Thanks” month with the movie that destroyed the Batman franchise in: Batman and Robin from 1997.   Boy what a stinker this thing was, and the boys have a lot to cover, including….just the first 10 minutes of this movie in general…and...there's...there's just so much garbage happing that we can’t even get into it here, but we will in the episode, don't you worry about tha...

On this week’s “Episode of Thanks” Mr. Preble selected the most 80’s of all 80’s movies: 1985’s Rocky IV.   Derek wasn’t able to make it in, but that’s okay because the rest of the guys make up for his loss with enough offensive Italian and brain damage jokes that you would think he was actually there.   Also, Tim forgets to press record for the first 5 mins of the show, so brace yourself for a Ep...

On this week’s episode, the boys climb into the dirty Dinkins NYC sewers in 1990’s Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. The boys can’t comprehend a platonic friendship between April and the turtles, so of course they are going to push it a bit too far. They also do talk about the movie, including: why does Shredder have a ninja gang that only consists of white teenagers, and if they are so organized why...

On this week’s episode, we are going back to stupid town with 1992’s Under Siege staring Russia’s BFF Steven Seagal, Tommy Lee Jones, and America’s sweetheart, Gary Busey. Whoohh boy - there’s a lot to cover in this episode including, but not limited to: Where did these henchmen learn how to shoot? How did the playmate not hear or notice all these people getting shot? And speaking of this playmate...

For our final Halloween movie of the month, the boys take a drive to Salem, Mass for the 25th anniversary of Hocus Pocus. Don’t worry, ladies; this episode isn’t half as offensive as Dirty Dancing; the Red Sox fatigue is evident in this one. Some of the heavy hitting questions include: Is Max actually a serial killer? Is his little sister, Dani, a virgin, and if so, what eight-year-old talks like...

In week 4 of our Halloween movie month the boys decided to stay super relevant with the 2018 Halloween hype and discuss the only movie in the 11 film franchise that doesn’t involve Michael Myers, 1982’s Halloween III: Season of the Witch. There’s no need to watch this movie ahead of time because the boys did, and they still have no idea of what really happened. So join in on their confusion, and s...

Just in time for the new Halloween film release, the boys venture to 1978 to visit Hattonfield, Illinois to answer questions like: How many people live in this town? Why doesn’t anyone notice this stolen car with a masked man driving all over town and hanging around the school all day? The boys even have some smart things to say, abiet briefly, about the psychological and primitive motives of Mich...

In week 2 of Halloween month, the insightful one of the show, Mike Preble, was not able to make it in, so instead, you will be subjected to the bumbling, almost incoherent ramblings of 3 idiots trying to talk about the dumbest movie they have done thus far: The Bride of Chucky.   Cringe along with Max, Derek, and Tim as they uncomfortably try to understand Alexis Arquett’s character, Max’s inabili...

Now with 10% new audio! We had some technical difficulties but late is better than neve, so if you already downloaded this prior to 10/3 feel free to redownload.  The boys kick off a month and mouthful of Halloween favorites with the first Chucky film, 1988’s Childs Play. Tim is all about Chris Sarandon’s sweater, and we are all about this movie including, but not limited to: Andy’s poor job of ma...

And so....the end is near....as we face... the final movie in Swayze September with 1990’s Ghost. In this episode the boys are talking all about Ghost and only Ghost, because this podcast is all about staying on topic, no talkin’ Sox, the Red Sox bullpen, Kevin Bacon, the 1990 New York Yankees bullpen, Mayor Dinkins, or the Catholic Church scandals in this podcast….just the movie Ghost and nothing...

In week 3 of Swayze September the boys do their best to make their Red Dawn episode a 100 minute CNBC vs Fox News hot take. There's a lot of heavy pressing questions, with the most important being: Is this a flawless movie, or a steaming pile of garbage? Only one way to find out..   Some other topics include Tim's blood thirst for Dave Dombrowski, making sure we give due respect to Mrs McFly, and...

In week 2 of our Swayze September the boys head to Jasper Missouri and get rowdy with Dalton, the Double Duce, and Sam Elliot’s hair in ROAD HOUSE. This episode is Mantown USA, no girls allowed, and they will not stop yelling about this movie until Preble’s microphone explodes. A few topics that they cover include: How is this bar in business, and how are people driving home after a night of heavy...

We kick off Swayze September with the 1987 classic Dirty Dancing. The guys don't have a whole lot of criticism with this one, but pro choice and pro life supporters may think differently...YIKES!   We also started an instagram page so follow us at TDbackrow_pod, and also write in to our mailbag at TDbackrow@gmail.com

Ole Timmy Slim Jim and Mr Preble actually have a life and were unable to make it in, so instead you will be subjected to Max and Derek revisiting 1999's Thong Song in our first mini episode. Some extra content that you didn't ask for, but Max and Derek did it anyways. 

This week we move away from man-eating dinosaurs and discuss something even more dangerous ...teenage dancing! The guys cover a lot of heavy hitting questions like why can Kevin Bacon jump 50 feet in the air? Is Ariel going to pass out from starvation, and speaking of Ariel, why does anyone like her? How can a town ban music but be fine with kids drinking and driving? Also, why didn’t anyone get u...

In our second episode we venture back to Costa Rica to run circles around the unnecessary, and ill-advised 2001 stinker that is Jurassic Park 3. The guys have plenty of things to discuss including the ghost of Sam Neil's career, how this movie movie would have been better if Rick Moranis was in it, the continuing conversation of Schindler's List with dinosaurs, and how women really feel about tenn...
