Arguably the pinnacle of the Indiana Jones series of films, in this episode we revisit The Last Crusade (and one of us for the first time) as Indy tracks down his kidnapped Sean Connery and is forced to join him on his quest of the holy grail. From the golden era of film making, paying homage to the previous golden era of film making, Spielberg keeps the magic and mysticism flowing even after all these years.

.5oz Lemon Juice
.5oz Simple Syrup

Handful of fresh fruit

Can a movie have eyes bigger than its stomach? This episode we tackle The Ring, and our haunting memories that have grown long shadows with age. Once placed on a horror pedestal and marketed to within an inch of its life, this film might not see all of us through. I don't know, though: if I handed you a VHS tape and told you it was cursed, what would race through your mind, other than where the hell am I going to find a working VCR in 2025? Would you watch it?

1.5oz Charbay Espresso Martini Liqueur
0.5oz Amaro
Angostura Bitters
1 whole egg
Shake all ingredients together with ice. Once chilled strain and re-shake without ice. Serve in a chilled glass and sip as you savor your final 7 days

Just in time for Pride Month! Er... why wait for June to celebrate? Julia Kaplan joins us once again for this wonderful time capsule of independent film, But I'm a Cheerleader.
Writer/Director Jamie Babbit's ambitious film about a cheerleader sent to gay conversion camp lands several jabs and jokes aimed at common stereotypes and misled perceptions of, well, let's face it: squares. Beloved by many and appropriately placed on a pedestal, listen in to see what Javier thinks after seeing it for the first time. And if anyone knows where to get one of those electro-toy-thingies, leave us a clue in the comments.

Is it 1pm or 1am? Who's to say? We've been up for three days straight singing the praises and missteps of the late Val Kilmer's meth-fueled neo-noir cult-classic that nobody other than Chuck and Luc has seen. Is it pure glass that the world deserves to give a chance? Or is it stepped on crank that the studio rightfully tossed aside? Either way we need to get some sleep..

Sometimes preparing for this podcast is truly hard work. A hill we know we must climb and a trail of unpleasantries we must traverse. I think we knew what we were getting into with 1995's Kids, and it had to be done. We welcome our friend Dante for his first episode, with hopefully many more to come.

In Season 2 of this podcast, we're not shying way from the big dogs of movies from our childhood, and Groundhog Day is easily an essential movie for most people. We take a closer look at this veritable masterpiece of a Harold Ramis movie, and, even though we're aware of the darker tone that this story almost took, we still love it. Carrying this theme on into our Sonic Death Monkey Top 5, we crack each other up and try not to kink-shame each other.

If you asked us how we got through two years of this podcast, we're not sure we could properly explain. It has become a weekly ritual, an excuse to watch old movies, and just another opportunity to hang out with our good friends. In this episode we discuss our best and worst movies and episodes from the last year, whether we still like all of the movies we picked, and the creeping yet secret disdain we harbor towards each other as we learn more about each other.
