"Is there a part in there for me?" | Pauly Shore is Dead (opens the original)
Read excerpt
This week on the podcast we are closing out the season with the ultimate self-aware, early-2000s fever dream that is Pauly Shore Is Dead. That's right it's officially our season finale and we figured what better way to close it out than with the last of the Pauly Shore Cinematic Universe (or the PSCU for those that know). Directed, written by, and starring Pauly Shore himself, this mockumentary is packed with an absurd amount of celebrity cameos. We may have taken the ultimate pass this week, bu
"We're not vigilantes." | Ring of the Musketeers (opens the original)
Read excerpt
This week on the podcast we’re stepping into the glorious, low quality chaos of 1992’s TV movie extravaganza, Ring of the Musketeers ! Join us as we break down David Hasselhoff and Cheech Marin leading a band of modern-day Musketeers riding motorcycles through Los Angeles. Does it hold up as a forgotten cult classic, or should it have stayed locked in the vault? To complement our high-stakes silliness, we’re sipping on Something Witty , a refreshingly light Belgian Witbier brewed with citrusy or
"You know, a million dollars doesn't buy all that much these days." | Blank Check (opens the original)
Read excerpt
This week, we’re revisiting the ultimate childhood wish fulfillment fantasy, Blank Check ! Join us as we dissect Preston Waters’ unhinged spending spree, question the intelligence of adults, and the dangers of an office water slide. Most importantly we ask each other "What WOULD you do with a million dollars as an 11-year-old?" and how long that money would have lasted. To match our high-roller dreams on a sensible budget, we’re sipping on Piggy Bank Light , a crisp, ultra-refreshing pilsner fro
"After fifteen years, we're finally rescued!" | Rescue from Gilligan's Island (opens the original)
Read excerpt
This week we took a 3 hour tour (not really) of the 1978 made-for-TV reunion movie Rescue from Gilligan's Island. The Castaways finally get off the island, but that's just where the chaos starts! From Russian spies to makeshift bamboo tech with a little help from space, we break down all the cheesy 70s nostalgia. And to help us navigate the madcap journey home, we found a pairing that even Gilligan's couldn't screw up in Gilligan's Red Ale from West Side Brewing. It's a rich, malty Irish-style R
"A web would indicate an arachnoid presence." | Arachnophobia (opens the original)
Read excerpt
This week on the podcast we revisited the 1990 creepy crawly creature classic Arachnophobia . We break down how this movie gave an entire generation an irrational fear of household objects and what could be hiding inside. These practical effects and creepy killer spider story are possibly where Shane's own fear of spiders originated. And we found the perfect pair to all the eight-legged chaos in Original Sin's Black Widow Cider . Crafted with freshly pressed New York apples and blackberry this d
