The Home Video Hustle

It's Year 2 at Hogwarts and I haven't heard a lot of good about this Chamber of Secrets! I ended up being okay with the first, but will this be better than expected or just a filler year? Chris and Anita are here with me, and she made me some Butterbeer...Even though I don't know what that is yet! I also learn a new way to diss people in the phrase, "Mudblood." Oh and I found out what group I woul...

Hey! You remember Jaws right? Well forget all that, we got killer whales son! It's been a while since we had some good 'ol trash on the podcast, this takes me back to the days when i'd make PJ watch Oversexed Rugsuckers from Mars or Gymkata. Anita and Chris are here this week and this movie was brought to us by the Homie Angel formerly of the Color Me Dead Podcast. Anita goes into her hatred or ho...

Now that I finally watched all the Rocky and Creed movies, I wanted to start another series that I had missed out on, not many bigger that I could think of than, Harry Potter! I read the first two books as a kid but never watched any of the films. That changes today and not only is Anita a super fan of the series but Chris is back this week and he is also a big fan! Let's see if this becomes anoth...

My Mom shows some love to the show this week with her second Patreon pick and as a die hard fan of mob films, she gave us the aptly titled, "Mobsters." Anita has never been exposed to that mob life, so she dips her toes in and starts with one that was universally panned and bombed in the movie theater. I have childhood memories of watching this film with Mom as a youngin' though, so i'm ready to s...

Patreon once again is going to broaden my horizons and get me to finally check out a Hayao Miyazki film! I like anime but with this being released by Disney, will it be too cutesy or sappy for my tastes or will the anime vibes keep this one from belonging in the trash? Anita is here once again and she grew up a fan of this joint so if you get mad at me, she's got your back. We also discuss our rec...

This Patreon pick is taking me back to my childhood! Back in 2003, MTV grabbed the rights to South Korean action film, Volcano High and got a bunch of rappers and singers to re dub it. I loved this back then but will it hold up 20 YEARS LATER? Anita is here and she basically talks me through all the basic sex-ed that I was neglected in my public school days. We hope you enjoy the show! Support The...

ROUND 10! It's finally time to end the Rocky saga, at least until they make another creed movie. Since it's the end and this is a newer movie, I decided to give it the full episode treatment and man, i'm glad I did. Anita is with me this week and we dive deep into the film as well as discuss LA dudes and lottery tickets in movies, horror and thriller films, Michael B Jordan dealing with being call...

The Hustle continues...From California! To celebrate the move I have a couple surprises for you, with the biggest being that until now, I have never seen Speed all the way through. That changes today! Anita joins me on the microphone this week as we discuss the film, my beef with movers and other people who have been making this move difficult, freight elevators, run flat tires, my first visit to...

This was recorded after the six year anniversary episode but I wanted to end the Ohio stretch of the podcast with PJ back on the microphone and Cameron joined us as well, my blood brother and my brother from another mother all together! PJ had us watch a Twilight Zone episode called, "The Monsters are Due on Maple Street" and we give our quick thoughts about it. We mainly discuss music (of course)...

We've talked about watching this movie for years now and with this being the last episode i'm going to record in Ohio before heading out to California, I felt it was about time. Chris and Cameron are here with me on this walk back through our childhoods. Chris drops mad knowledge and flexes his Power Rangers knowledge, we figure out our favorite Run-DMC songs, Cameron expresses his love for the St...

After quoting and referencing this movie every week for so long, Chris and I finally just said screw it and reviewed the movie. We actually stay on topic pretty much the whole episode but we do branch off at times to discuss wrestling, the Final Destination movies, film remakes that are better than the originals and of course the huge influence this film had on hip-hop. Dont be a cock-a-roach, com...

The Hustle has been strong for 300 (plus) episodes! I got Chris and Cameron here and I had to find a movie for us to really sink our teeth into and since we are all lifelong Mortal Kombat fans, this made the most sense. We nerd out and deep dive into MK cannon, the biggest MK jobbers, our love for Mortal Kombat Mythologies: Sub-Zero, old MK commercials, the best endings from Mortal Kombat 4 and ge...

Chris cheats the system and picks his own Patreon pick this week but he wanted to watch Black Dynamite, so i'll allow it! No spoiler here, this is one of my favorite movies of all time and we had a lot of fun talking about it. We also discuss movies on Adult Swim, bad subtitles on VUDU, our top 3 James Bond films, Janelle Monae, Ernest movies, hot sauce on weird foods and our favorite stand up com...

The next year of Hustlin' begins with Chris facing his childhood fears! Will he still be scared of the aliens in this film all these years later? Listen and find out! Shout out to Arek, the patron who gave us this film to watch. We also talk about Ninja Turtles, bad video game trades, favorite Spider-Man villains, Vin Diesel movies and the response to our Freddy Got Fingered episode! Thank you for...

Six years, man how time flies. The Home Video Hustle has gone through many changes but we're still here. From 45-minute episodes to six-hour extravaganzas, we are happy to have been able to keep you entertained for so damn long now. With this being an anniversary episode, I had to do something special, and I think you'll be happy once you hit that play button. There is a reason the episode is so l...

I was always curious about this film, everyone seems to hate it and its been so forgotten to time that it never even got a blu-ray release! Well, thanks to our patron Jacob Killjoy I get to see what all the hype is about. Chris is here with me this week and Cameron is too...When he finally woke back up anyway. We hope you enjoy the show!

The Patreon list stikes hard this week. I knew I would need help for this one and thankfully Chris was able to get on the mic with me. We got through it but one of us fell asleep for a section of the film, can you guess who? We also talk about Kraven the Hunter, James Bond movies, Inspector Gadget, the wack 1998 Godzilla movie and it's soundtrack, Brent's dislike for The Big Lebowski and Chris pic...

It's time to get back to the Patrons and first up, it's time to show some love to Dree and her pick, Freeway! I actually had the 4K disc for this but had never watched it. I heard it's pretty wild and very trashy, so that seems like something i need to check out. This film also taught me a new term that I had to go and look up on Urban Dictionary. Thank you again to Dree and thank you all for list...

Round 9! This is the film that almost made me do this series sooner. When this was coming out, it looked great but I hadn't seen anything before it and I was too lazy then to go through everything, not this time though! I definitely have a real strong thought about this film that I may be alone with but i'll have to see if you guys agree. Almost gone the distance, just one round left... Support Th...

It's round 8 and finally, I get to watch the series that set me on this journey. Rocky's story is over but can the son of Apollo Creed have as entertaining a journey as Balboa? I don't know why I was so hyper during this episode, i'm talking really fast in spots, so apologies in advance. Maybe the film just got me that hype...

Round 7? What the hell is this? Well thanks to the AVGN and The Homie Mike Bagford for reminding me this exists, I watched a parody of the Rocky films that dropped in the mid 80's. The box boasts that it is on the same level as Airplane and i'll just spoil this now...It's not. It's really not.

Round 6! It's time to finally wrap up the Rocky series. After a weak part 5, can Stallone come back and give Balboa the sendoff they deserve? As usual, I keep it to the point with these episodes but I do take a bit of time to nerd out on United Artists logos and HBO boxing memories. Thanks for listening!

To wrap up the Black History Month Marathon, I grabbed the homie Brendan and we watched a kung-fu movie made here in Columbus, Ohio! While we are in awe of the filmmaking here, we also stopped to talk about the train derailments in Ohio, 007 movies, long hospital waits and those Tubi super bowl ads. We hope you enjoy the show!

Did you know there was a "kinda" sequel to Breakin 2? I've been waiting to break open this blu-ray for a long time and luckily I have Joey and Markellus from the So Wizard Podcast here to help me rate these bars! We also discuss our love for Cannon films, MST3K, buying the same films in every different format, Sonny Spoon, wrestling and how this film killed the "----in Universe." We hope you enjoy...

Cameron & Chris are back because this was a special request movie for us to review! This is a staple in Black households but will it still be enjoyable all these years after not seeing it? I don't know if it's because we haven't recorded together in a while but we were on ten this episode. We were singing, laughing at inappropriate jokes, reminiscing about True Crime: Streets of LA, learning about...
