  • Blow Out (1981)
    2024/10/10

    With the 2024 presidential election looming, we thought it'd be timely to jump down the conspiratorial rabbit-hole with Brian De Palma's 1981 political thriller 'Blow Out'. This film follows slasher b-movie sound specialist Jack Terri, who witnesses a car accident that kills a prolific politician. Using his audio expertise, he begins to uncover that this accident might've been an assassination. However, his independent investigation gets him wrapped up in something much more dangerous than he could have imagined.


    The film delves into elements of thrillers, horror-satire, and pulpy soap-opera melodrama,


    Director: Brian De Palma


    Starring: John Trevolta, Nancy Allen, John Lithgow


    For this episode we're drinking Woodford Reserve whisky.

  • The Secret Life of Walter Mitty (2013)
    2024/08/13

    We don't disagree very often, but The Secret Life of Walter Mitty has changed that. Is it a celebration of life and an ode to late bloomers? Or is it a melodramatic attempt at a indie slice-of-life indie drama? Starring and also directed by Ben Stiller, it also involves Kristin Wiig, Sean Penn, and Patton Oswalt,

  • Talking Heads - Remain in Light (1980)
    2024/06/19

    After the longest hiatus we've ever taken, Alex and Austin have returned to explore musical territory outside of our usual sad white-boi schtick - it's the groundbreaking 1980 album 'Remain in Light' by the Talking Heads, which explores post-punk and dance-rock elements merged with African influences and an experimental one-chord structure throughout.

  • Kick-Ass (2010)
    2024/03/26

    Remember a time...a time before the intense superhero fatigue of the 2020's kicked in, where the idea of a non-IP semi-satire of pre-mature MCU films was a fresh idea. If you're thinking of 2010's Kick-Ass then congratulations...you win nothing! This film by Matthew Vaughn features a creative premise, Nicholas Cage overacting, kids cursing and committing murder, and some seriously questionable story beats. We also get into Le Finn Du Monde being the greatest beer ever, and the time capsule that is Ohio's Jungle Jims International food market.


    It stars - Aaron Taylor-Johnson, Chloe Grace Moretz, Nicholas Cage, Mark Strong, Christopher Mintz-Plasse, Lyndsy Fonseca, Clark Duke, and Evan Peters.

  • Melancholia (2011)
    2024/02/27

    Have you felt sad, lethargic, and are experiencing a lack of interest in things you're usually invested in? It's probably because you've listened to our discussion on Lars von Trier's 2011 psychological-drama 'Melancholia'. We've just come out of three months straight of bleak grayness with no sun in sight, but the heavens aligned when we got together for this session with a warm sunny day...thank god, we needed it considering the emotionally heavy subject matter. For this episode we're drinking 'Beat' by Heart State Brewing,.


    This film stars Kirsten Dunst, Charlotte Gainsbourg, Kiefer Sutherland, Alexander Skarsgård, Stellan Skarsgård, John Hurt, Charlotte Rampling, and Udo Kier.

  • The Big Lebowski (1998)
    2024/02/05

    We know that you just want to listen to your Creedence tapes while laying on a comfy rug (that really ties the room together), but new shit has come to light! We're finally talking about The Big Lebowski, a film that we've officially declared as the "official anti-podcast movie". Surprisingly, Austin is the first one to bring back the Coen brothers to the table much to Alex's delight. We got lost in the supposed nothing-burger of this plot, but is there something deeper going on here?


    It stars Jeff Bridges, John Goodman, Steve Buscemi, Julianne Moore, John Turturro, Tara Reid

  • In Bruges (2008)
    2024/01/18

    You know it's not going to be a good day when you have to listen to two white men drink and review movies, and all the while you're still in fucking Bruges! Most of us will never have the luxury of visiting a beautiful country like Belgium, but we all can relate to the misery that Ray feels while he's there. We're talking about In Bruges (2008), the film written and directied by Martin McDonagh, which follows two hitmen after a job gone bad awaiting further instruction while they vacation in Europe. It stars Colin Ferrel, Brendan Gleeson, Clémence Poésy, and Ralph Fiennes.


    For this episode we're drinking Goose Island Bourbon County stout "Cherrywood" edition, as well as Makers Mark French Oak whisky

  • Seven Samurai (1954)
    2024/01/01

    Tackling a classic film in a unique way is never an easy task, but we're going a step farther than that with Akira Kurosawa's 1954 film Seven Samurai - a film that was an essential pillar in establishing certain plot-beats that have been referenced, homaged, and copied many times over. We get into the "slightly bald top-knot", Oppenheimer (2023) and how the atomic bomb effected Japan in the 1950's, and the technicality of this in comparison to other heavyweights of the time like Alfred Hitchcock and Stanley Kubrick.


    We're drinking Kikori Japanese whisky and Kirin Ichiban.
