The guys also drop a hint for next week's movie....

Happy St. Patrick's Hangover Day! As is appropriate during a very Irish holiday, Nathan, Brendan and returning guest Jason MacLeod discussed a VERY Irish movie (with lots of non-Irish actors doing Irish accents) - last year's Wild Mountain Thyme.

Time to begin... the MARCH to WRESTLEMANIA! To start off the wrasslin' theme, the guys bring back Ryan Gilbert to break down the Hulk Hogan family comedy Suburban Commando.

Yikes. The February tradition continues with Nathan's wife Patty picking the movie for the podcast and she has bestowed the 2010 romantic comedy The Switch upon the show. This movie was a lot more disturbing than usual so get ready for Nathan to break down why he believed it was written by an incel and how the premise alone is problematic, the guys discuss how Patrick Wilson is definitely not a vi...

2020, you're the worst! This week, Nathan and Brendan (along with Steve and Izzy of Everything I Learned from Movies) continue their onslaught against the raging garbage fire that was 2020 by discussing the nonsensical Blumhouse horror adaptation of Fantasy Island.

2020, you stink! Welcome back! This week, Nathan and Brendan start the year off by talking about the biggest stinkers (in this case, a literal statement) of 2020. First up is Josh Trank's attempt at a gangster drama with the 'final days' biopic Capone. Thankfully, Brent from the Home Video Hustle is there to join in and talk about Tom Hardy's WILD acting choices, the movie having multiple poop and...

Happy New Year's Eve! Surprise! Nathan and Brendan pop in with a brand new (mini) episode as they discussed the recent television phenomenon A Recipe for Seduction starring Mario Lopez as Harland Sanders. In this brief breakdown, the guys question if the movie truly embraces the sheer lunacy of the whole idea or if they play it too straight and they also question the "KFC heiress" who had some unk...

150 episodes! Your hosts celebrate their 150th episode by re-doing the 2nd-ever episode (that had dodgy audio and was never available on the podcast feed) in Hollywood Homicide, the 2003 action-comedy starring Harrison Ford and Josh Hartnett, two actors who CLEARLY did not get along throughout the entire shoot. The guys also discuss the 18 million subplots that barely pay off, they wonder just how...

This Patreon Pick comes to us courtesy of Jerika herself! This week, Nathan and Brendan are befuddled by the late-90s movie Kickboxing Academy (which may also be called Teen Boxer) starring Chyler Leigh in her first major acting role. Jerika is also here to help the guys figure out who the main character is (a fruitless task) and then they discuss the DVD cover prominently featuring a character th...

The guys als...
