The Swimfans have a wild night in Chicago, encountering every city stereotype that'll fit on 35mm film stock. It's the breathless 1987 film ADVENTURES IN BABYSITTING.  @swimfanspod swimfanspod.com

The Swimfans get in over their heads, but in a much less bleak way than they expected with Stephen Herek's 1991 Don't Tell Mom the Babysitter's Dead.

Alex and Craig begin a Swimfans mini voyage through the films of John McTiernan. First stop: his 1987 intergalactic masterpiece PREDATOR.

The Swimfans celebrate another of Alex's birthdays, and make our claim as the premiere podcast of Kissing Your Buds' Hands! We bring 1999 ubiquitous guys-guy film FIGHT CLUB to the table to discuss its political ambiguity, its deep desire to feel something human, and its boatloads of homoeroticism. @swimfanspod swimfanspod.com

Alex is a Car Nerd, Craig is a Nerd Nerd, and Josh is a Blue Ribbon Good Boy in the Stepford Wives-reminiscent 1998 teen thriller DISTURBING BEHAVIOR  @swimfanspod swimfanspod.com

Craig got his MFA in hacky-sack performance art, all Josh needed to be beautiful was a little bit of mascara, and Alex NEVER goes back on a bet. If you like fanfiction-style tropes as much as we do, you'll love 1999's SHE'S ALL THAT! @swimfnaspod Swimfanspod.com
