Each week we bring on a friend, from lifelong to brand new, to talk about their favorite* movie. We like to talk about why our favorites are our favorites, what they make us think and what they make us feel. I can't promise a lack of spoilers (let's face it; there will be spoilers!), but we're much more into what movies mean to us personally. We talk about favorites because we want to explore how movies affect us so deeply. One thing I've always found is that even those who don't think of themselves as movie fans have a favorite movie and have a lot to say about it!

Join Jim Angehr and I as we channel our mid-90's selves in talking about Beautiful Girls. A modest performer at the box office, it gained traction on home video with a demographic we were squarely in the middle of. Saying it's a cult classic would probably be strong, but I know we aren't the only folks in the orbit of this podcast who remember it fondly.
It's always great to heat a subject matter expert discuss, and we have that today with Bill Peltier, who has been racing most of his life. He gives us some great historical context and a driver's eye view on one of the best sports movies of the century so far. Strap in! (I know, I know, I couldn't resist.)
Anne Sears joins us today to about a little old obscure indie flick...DIE HARD! Anne is all over this movie, having loved it since childhood, and she brings multiple ideas to the table that has never occurred to me before. And I've watched Die Hard A LOT. We talk Alan Rickman, feminism, of course we address the Christmas movie issue, albeit briefly. Trust me; you will have a great time with this one.
Welcome to a rather profound episode of the show. Jim Meadows and I wrestle with a movie we both love, which necessarily tackles challenging subject matter. This is an experimental, early film by director Todd Haynes.This movie is officially pulled from circulation, but you can check it out on YouTube: https://youtu.be/LaBVmyNwshg?is=86AOXkS7fCuNrfe-Jim is executive director of noage, an important organization that serves and advocates for elderly members of the New Orleans LGBTQ+ community. Check them out and maybe donate if it's within your means.
Join writer and critic Scott Gold and I as we discuss the postmodern Spike Jonze flick Being John Malkovich. Scott goes deep on this one, on both the film itself and the tradition behind it. We have a ton of fun with it, as well.
It's our first new (well newish) release episode! Past guest Daniel Sovich texted me earlier this week to let me know that he was obsessed with Obsession and that we had to record on it ASAP. I dutifully got my ticket, and we sat down just this past Thursday to break it down.Daniel is a heckuva songwriter and musician, based in Nashville. Check him out!Daniel's YouTube Channel
We're heading to Hawaii!!! Well, at least the characters are heading to Hawaii. We just get to jealously gawk at them in paradise. It's the incomparable (because who would we compare to him to) Jeff Elizardi returning to the show to talk Forgetting Sarah Marshall. We have a lot of fun with this movie, highlighting what makes the comedy and the characters tick. There also is an important message partway through about certain people who are no longer allowed to listen to the show. You better check to see whether you've made the cut.
Director/Writer/Actor/Friend Graham Skipper joins me to talk The Texas Chainsaw Massacre, his hands-down favorite film. Saying that Graham knows his stuff on this one is the understatement of the year. He not only eloquently describes what he loves about this gritty 70's indie horror but also fills us in on its production history and its place in the world of horror.
