No Highway Option

Jade's computer crashed in the middle of this recording, so there's a bit of an extended period where you don't hear from her. Mostly as we talk about Brie Larson's filmography. But she comes back, don't worry! The boys are heading from the Mid-Atlantic region down to Florida with JADE BARTLETT and JASON MOUNTAIN this week in order to protect some adorable owls from a knockoff IHOP. That's right,...

This is the purest version of this podcast episode. There is no longer cut. If the audio sounds weird, it's because it was edited in 4:3 aspect ratio to fit our artistic vision.  Connor and Luke go deep (kinda) on the latest hot streaming release that proves the old saying: "If at first you don't succeed, harass social media interns for 4 years and maybe then you'll get what you want". That's...

Who's ready to get Horny On Main for Sam Elliot?? Yes, you read that right.  Journey to a small town dive bar with the boys plus CAMERON AND JOSEPH from PODCASTING IN PARADISE as they clean the place up while fighting small town crime bosses in ROAD HOUSE. You've got young Swayze, young Sam Elliot, and a whole buncha throat ripping. The perfect 80's date movie!  Join them as they answer...

Ever wanted to hear a podcast where people describe a practically indescribable movie? Because that's what you're getting! After writing to a mysterious Aunt, TAYLOR COAN joins the boys on a journey into an off-the-wall haunted house to discuss the 1977 horror-comedy-theme park ride of a movie HOUSE . We got bleeding paintings! We got severed heads! We got dancing skeletons and attacking logs! I s...

There is but one question. You cannot talk back to the podcast hosts or else you will be disqualified. Or do talk back, we can't stop you.  Dylan from the Cocktails and Classics podcast joins the boys in a dark, sterile room in order to talk about one film, and one film alone: EXAM, a British Indie Thriller from 2009. Society will be questioned. Fights will break out. True emotions will be re...

Is this our first movie that was a brief nickname of one of the hosts? ...I think so! COOKSHORT joins the boys on a trip to the middle of the desert (they flew coach, unfortunately) to talk about the Nicolas Cage/John Malkovich/Steve Buscemi/many others Sky Prison flick CON AIR . It's wild, it's wacky, it's full of some of the worst people on Earth. What fun! Join them as they answer such question...

Jules Jordan Presents Ass Worship 13. Just keep that title in mind. Mike Wawrzynek (of FLASHMILK and DIRECTED CONNOR AND LUKE IN A SUPER MARIO BROTHERS MUSICAL fame) joins the boys to chat about 2013's micro-budget family comedy/drama A TALKING CAT!?!, punctuation and all. We unfortunately can't relate to the "magical animal can only talk to you once" premise. Our magic animals talk to us all the...

Come on, vamanos! Everybody let's go!  Brad Dixon and Katie Roletto from WELL...I LIKED IT! open their map and join the boys to find the lost city of Para-podcast as they discuss DORA AND THE LOST CITY OF GOLD. Will this episode be as educational as the standard episode of Dora's show? Probably not, but you never know... Join them as they answer such questions as: Did anybody watch this show?...

Featuring a special cameo by a host's family member! Seriously! Also a background cat cameo! I can't tell which cat it is! MATT PACE joins the boys on a globe-hopping hunt to find a rare treasure: a movie better than The Pacifier . Will Nicholas Cage's bizarre historical magnum opus National Treasure fit the bill? The bill that, naturally, has about 20 different clues on the back? There's only one...

Can we offer you a nice Truffula Tree in this trying time? AUBREY PARIS and EMILY BLACK from NATIONAL TREASURE HUNT join the Boys on the outskirts of Thneedville to talk about Illumination's 2012 adaptation of THE LORAX. With Danny DeVito and twink Once-lers too, it's an episode that we think is perfect for you! Join them as they answer questions such as: Has The Lorax changed since his book? Whic...

Actually Tim Meadows, I'm thinkin' I do. After SAVANNAH MACHAMMER and the Boys lose their sense of smell, they discover the underrated comedic gem WALK HARD: THE DEWEY COX STORY. How did they lose their sense of smell? It's...complicated and traumatic. Maybe they'll sing about it! ...Okay they don't. Join them as they answer questions such as: Just how many biopics does this mock? Is John C. Reill...

This week, we introduce you to a dangerous new trend. It's called "Motorsurfing", and like it or not, your teenager may be involved. Details at 11. MIKE KING hangs ten with the boys as they discuss the 1993 Kids-Martial Arts-Surfing-Action-Comedy...classic SURF NINJAS . It may not be an overall classic, but it's at least a classic of the genre. At the very least. Prove us wrong by writing a review...

He's baaaack! NOW TELL ME DO YOU WAAAANA GO? JASON MOUNTAIN returns as our ringleader to talk with the boys about 2017's weird Hugh Jackman passion project, THE GREATEST SHOWMAN. We've all got our issues with it but we also have things we like! It's a bonus so there's no editing. We recorded this 2 and a half hours before it was scheduled to release! so fun! Join them as they answer questions such...

No. No it is not. And that shouldn't be surprising. Ben from I DRINK YOUR PODCAST joins the boys on the fairway to chat about the 1996 Adam Sandler hockey/golf classic, HAPPY GILMORE. Will this be a total hole in one? Or if The Pacifier is a par, is this a triple bogey? Birdie! Ball cleaner! Master's Jacket! More golf terms! Join them as they answer questions such as: How did that hockey puck kill...

In this, probably our most divisive episode so far, at least Connor and Luke can agree on one thing: we definitely watched this. Sniff up your Zydrate and leave this on while you're doing surgery (surgery surgery), it's time for Ethan Crystal to join the boys and talk about REPO! THE GENETIC OPERA . One of us thinks it's a trash masterpiece, and the other thinks it's worse than trash. Like, below...

Happy New Year! Let's shoot the breeze about the year, media in general, and Connor's top 15 movies of the year! Yes, more than 15 movies came out this year. Plus, we put the entire year 2020 through THE CRITERIA to determine: was 2020 better or worse than The Pacifier? It's a hardly edited fun time with some surprise voicemails from past and future guests! Hope you all have a pleasant and safe Ne...

Surprisingly we don't do the Tim Allen Home Improvement Grunt for an hour and a half. Although it was very tempting.  Because of an accidental murder of other podcast hosts, KELLY TRUSDELL (Video Editor) and the boys are forced to host a podcast where they discuss THE SANTA CLAUSE. It's time to close the book on SNOW Highway Option in a fun way! We put on the mics, now we're the big guys. It...

Merry Christmas! Here's an early present: More of our nonsense, with a special sneak preview at a January episode that is the most divisive thing we've done yet. It's a lot of arguing. But that's not now! Now is Christmas!  CHRIS BUDNICKI (Friend of the podcast, former host of Squawk Squawk Dude Talk RIP) comes back to chat with the boys about ANNA AND THE APOCALYPSE , a 2017 Zombie Comedy Ch...

Not the Michael Keaton one. Although we do chat about that one for a hot second! JOHN DORSEY ( Superhuman Public Radio ) and the boys stumble upon the midwest town of Snowmonton to discover the horrifying secret behind the serial killer known as JACK FROST. Well, horrifying is a strong word. Mildly disturbing, I guess? It's a murderous snowman who looks like he's worth about $20.  Join them a...

When I say Hot! You say Chocolate!  BRIAN SHEEHAN (TV Trivia Podcast) joins the boys as they hop on board Robert Zemeckis' weirdly animated choo-choo: THE POLAR EXPRESS. Ignore the characters' dead eyes and lack of names, let's instead focus on America's Dad, Tom Hanks. Do we got it? Ooooooh you bet we got it.  Join them as they answer questions such as: Why, Robert Zemeckis? What's the...

Come for the nostalgic Arnold talk, stay for the surprise George Lucas impressions. IAN GEERS and LAUREN THOMPSON (Not Another Film Podcast, The Vanishing Act) join the boys in a holiday frenzy so they can talk about the movie every kid has on their wishlist: 1996's JINGLE ALL THE WAY.  It's an over-the-top adventure that miiiiight have started the dreaded war on Christmas? It might not be on...

Welcome to the first episode of SNOW Highway Option! Get ready for a December to remember! Let's start off with some Daddies!  Matt Sternbergh goes on a bonding trip with the boys this week so they can talk about 2017's DADDY'S HOME 2. When only one of the three has seen the original, will there need to be a lot of catching up? Actually, not really.  Join them as they answer such questio...

Podcast, Magic Podcast! Stumble through a mysterious magical maze with special guest Kyle Juresic h and the boys as they chat LABYRINTH , the 1986 Jim Henson/David Bowie picture. This maze has everything. Rock star bulges, fake swamps, questionable swearing, and of course, FUSHIGI™ The Magic Gravity Ball (Not a Sponsor).  Join them as they answer such questions as: How exactly does Jennifer C...

Michael Cera's back in the game and most of us still think he's a teenager! Except for one, for some reason.  Stacy Walker joins the boys as they talk about the 2010 cult classic SCOTT PILGRIM VS. THE WORLD. The candy-colored visuals definitely impressed some of us this week, while others...not so much. We love a divisive episode where you can also learn opinions about 2005's Bewitched. ...

Bonus episode! Time to get loose! Luke's birthday is November 17th. Celebrate early with us and the late Sean Connery!  For his bonus episode, Luke chose the 2003 English Lit Avengers THE LEAGUE OF EXTRAORDINARY GENTLEMEN , and Connor...also watched it. Plus we talk about Vin Diesel's other new single! NEXT EPISODE: SCOTT PILGRIM VS. THE WORLD with STACY WALKER Thank you for listening! Please...
