Road House Minute

Wade shambles into the bar and collapses on the floor, clearly the worse for wear. Dalton helps him onto a stool, and Wade reports getting jumped by three of Wesley's men. With Wade alive, Dalton surmises the Doc must be the target of Wesley's coin toss game. After settling Wade down, Dalton assures him that they will be leaving town soon, and then heads to the hospital to get Doc. Hosts: Roger Wi...

Brad Wesley gives Dalton a now-seemingly cliched decision -- choose between his friend and the woman he loves. But back in 1989, this was some pretty original stuff. Wesley decides to make the decision himself by flipping a coin. Wonder how the coin toss went? Perhaps we get our answer as a bloody Wade comes staggering into the bar. Hosts: Roger Wistar & Marcie Wistar Special Guests: Rick &amp...

Dalton has a message for Brad Wesley, and he delivers it first by shouting and then sending a throatless corpse slowly floating across the river. Wesley receives the message somberly. Dalton then returns to the Double Deuce during the day in his Mercedes.

Dalton begins to move in for the kill... literally, as we'll soon find out. Doc arrives at the worst possible time. Jimmy decides it's time to stop playing fair and pulls a gun, which Dalton quickly dispatches with. Heeding Wade's advice, he decides to put an end to Jimmy, but why Dalton, why? That's right, we've reached one of the most infamous minutes in movie history -- probably either your fav...

Dalton seems to have Jimmy's number until he gets up close and personal with a piece of driftwood. Jimmy then delivers another iconic Road House quote -- "I used to %$#% guys like you in prison." Not sure how that's supposed to intimidate, but okay... Jimmy continues his stunning reversal of fortune, as Dalton seems unable to land even a single blow. Now it's Dalton who seems ready to quit, but Ji...

The Big Fight between Dalton and Jimmy begins with all the points in the early rounds going to Dalton. Jimmy seems down for the count, and completely unable to counter any move from Dalton. How exactly did he defeat everyone at the bar?

Emmet's house goes up with the fire of several hundred pounds of TNT. Guess we know now that his main cash crop was nitroglycerin. Wesley looks on with detached satisfaction. Dalton does a comprehensive medical exam of Emmet without considering his main affliction, having a knee pressed on his chest. Jimmy emerges from the flames on his moped, laughing maniacally. Dalton begins chasing him on foot...

Dalton argues why he is the man to take down Wesley, bragging about his unbeaten streak as a cooler. Doc argues that the victory will be a hollow one. Doc tries an appeal to passion, but her flames are trumped by our second towering inferno, this time coming from Emmet's farmhouse. Dalton once again tries out his volunteer firefighting skills, this time making it in the house. He emerges with Emme...

Dalton is at war with himself, but that proves too difficult, so he continues to take his anger out on the heavy bag. Later that night, he stares intently at Wesley's mansion, as Doc becomes the second person to try to convince him to give up the fight. Dalton argues that Wesley is just like any other small-town heavy. Hosts: Roger Wistar & Marcie Wistar Special Guests: Niall McGowan & Jon...

Wade walks around a Duelin' Dalton slowly, wondering how to get him to detach from his vendetta against Wesley. After Dalton dismisses him without a second thought, Wade challenges him, resulting in the fist clench heard 'round the world.

Dalton is sparring in the barn with a wooden target when Wade walks in, wondering what the hell he is doing. He asks Dalton to leave town with him, but Dalton clearly has unfinished business. Dalton climbs a rope ladder to the second floor, requiring Wade to climb a ladder he'd rather not climb to continue a conversation he'd rather not have. Hosts: Roger Wistar & Marcie Wistar Special Guests:...

Doc confronts Wesley about his outrageous behavior, and Wesley uses it as an opportunity to take Dalton down a peg or two with her, at least in his mind. Wesley challenges Doc to get rid of Dalton, and Doc and Dalton leave in disgust. Wesley lines up face to face against the mutineers.

Brad Wesley accuses Stroudenmire of losing faith, which seems to come with dire consequences. Ketchum prepares to drive the monster truck through the dealership showroom, and Stroudenmire tries to put himself in front of the car before being pushed away by Pat and Morgan. The truck then plows through a multi-story plate glass window before crushing station wagons. The Double Deuce crowd reacts wit...

Red cuts through the big talk from Stroudenmire and says what everyone must be thinking -- that someone needs to actually stand up to Brad Wesley before anything will get better. Doc goes with Red to help him pack up and move out. Tilghman eagerly informs Dalton that he scared Wesley at the Double Deuce, which doesn't seem like much consolation to Dalton. In the next scene, Dalton, Doc, and Cody d...

Wesley rounds up the troops and departs the Double Deuce, but not before Jimmy puts Dalton on notice. Wade and Dalton share an exhausted hug. Doc arrives at Red's house for a meeting of the rebel alliance forming to combat Brad Wesley. Now we're talking a Jasper Improvement Society!

Jimmy  issues a verbal challenge this time to his next target, Wade Garrett.  The fight is martial-arts versus back alley brawling, but Jimmy seems to  have a slight advantage. Dalton disposes of his opponent and looks on,  but seems to respect the one-on-one code of barroom fighting at first.  When Wade looks like he is in trouble, Dalton steps in and joins the  figh...

Jimmy issues a non-verbal challenge to the bouncers, who engage him with Dalton's blessing. Big mistake, Dr. Jones! Then for some reason, all hell breaks loose. The NEW Double Deuce sure looks like the OLD Double Deuce in this minute.

Denise's tarty trip on the pole ends with a Daltonesque flourish. Dalton indignantly turns Denise over to Wesley with some choice words, which he misinterprets as an invitation for Jimmy to come kick some ass. Jimmy begins some balletic maneuvers with a pool cue. Hosts: Roger Wistar & Marcie Wistar Facebook: www.facebook.com/groups/roadhouseminute/ Twitter & Instagram: @RHMinute Email: dal...

Dalton decides he's had enough of Denise's PG pole dance, and heads over to break it up. But Denise realizes she's finally snared her prey, and decides to crank up the temperature by removing her pink dress. Somehow she manages to still cover her chest with various pieces of clothing -- not all her own, though -- at least for a little while. Even Dalton seems to admire her resourcefulness. Hosts:...

Denise strides up to the stage to begin an attempt at a sexy striptease, first putting the moves on Cody before perhaps realizing he can't see them. Denise seems to think this is the way to Dalton's heart, but his heart is still in a smoldering pile of ruins out in the parking lot. Wade seems to enjoy things just fine, though. Denise moves on to give the crowd a little 1980s version of twerking, b...

Red arrives in his truck to see that his entire store has been reduced to ashes. Dalton and the boys return to the Double Deuce to see -- BRAD WESLEY??? standing at the bar, commiserating with no one in particular about the disaster we all know he engineered. Wesley rubs salt in the wound with some choice words about Red, which his henchmen all seem to enjoy. Denise begins her dance. Hosts: Roger...

All seems to be going well, until Jack bursts into the bar to tell Dalton that Red's store is on fire. Everyone races out to see the first of several ten-alarm fires, although this is Jasper, so only two fire engines arrive. Dalton runs towards the fire for some reason, until the entire store explodes in a thermonuclear blast. Hosts: Roger Wistar & Marcie Wistar Special Guest: Murren Kennedy F...

Doc needs to get some shut-eye, but Wade is still eager for more, and offers another classic Road House quote -- "Doc, I'll get all the sleep I need when I'm dead." Doc chooses to sleep a little earlier than that and leaves with a kiss. Back at the Double Deuce, Wade notices he is in a target-rich environment. Hosts: Roger Wistar & Marcie Wistar Special Guest: Murren Kennedy Facebook: www.face...

Wade attempts to probe the reason for Dalton's melancholy, and Dalton weakly offers that the past has nothing to do with it. Wade isn't buying. We finally learn the truth about what happened in Memphis, and it isn't pretty. Hosts: Roger Wistar & Marcie Wistar Special Guest: David T.

Road House Minute listeners, once again we are privileged to bring you a most excellent guest, Neal E. Fischer. He has worked on several TV and film projects, but he comes to us today as a result of his first published book, "Being Patrick Swayze: Essential Teachings From the Master of the Mullet". The book chronicles nearly every facet of Swayze's career in a jaunty style that is both informative...
