I made it almost halfway through the first episode before knowing this one was a keeper
I just discovered this pod not long after starting our own about thriller movies and it’s fantastic. It’s ruined my week but at least I have something good to listen to on the way to work.
Thoughtful fun conversations about action films and their influences. Die Hard makes a great jumping off point for these discussions but they explore more beyond it.
I can’t tell you how much I have enjoyed this amazing stupendous, hilarious, engaging, educational, stunning, unique, collective, joyous, and never ending against. -Alex
As I write this, I just finished catching up with the entire podcast in the span of a month. If you’re even remotely interested in 80s/90s action cinema, listen to these guys. They know their stuff and their enthusiasm is contagious. Highly recommended!
