Mind the Gap

The roadies have everything packed up, and it’s time to get on the tour bus and haul off to our next stop. In their first foray into the 2000s, Mike, Gary, and Paul watch the coming of age story Almost Famous.

Join us as we work through an Iowa cornfield and maybe some Phillies-related trauma. Follow Mind the Ga...

For his first assignment, Paul watches the 1986 hit Top Gun. The boys discuss the iconic Tom Cruise action movie, marvel at Anthony Edwards’ mustache, and pick their own flying ace call signs. Will Top Gun take Paul’s breath away, or will he find his ego is writing checks his body can’t cash? Follow Mind the Gap on Facebook , Instagram , and X .
