    The Iron Claw (2023)

    This week we start A24 in 2024, a cask built around one of the most powerful studios in Hollywood and up first is a discussion on the wrestling drama, The Iron Claw. Journey with us as we discuss the world of wrestling in the 1980s along with a breakdown of the cast tasked with bringing the Von Erich family to life. Is this a sports drama worthy of greatness or do we need to suplex the film into the waste basket? Our Flight and Nightcap are discussions on sports stories we'd like to see on the big screen along with who we'd cast. So pour some rye, grab your wrestling costume, and get ready for a dance in the ring. Cheers!

Pour some rye, grab a bowl of Beluga Caviar, and get ready to save the world the James Bond way. Cheers!

Wow! THE movie podcast

I just discovered these guys but I can already tell you this is the pinnacle of movie podcasts. From the stellar breakdown to their sense of humor, their back and forth witty banter makes the daily commute and work day zoom by. If you wanna get in the weeds with films you love, look no further. And to quote their own rating system, this is TOP SHELF material.

Please stop saying “literally”

As a team, you literally said “literally” literally 27 times during the otherwise-awesome “Star Wars - “A New Hope” episode. At least once it was said twice in one sentence. You can’t say a character is “literally riding a horse” when he is riding a tauntaun. He is literally riding a tauntaun. About 25% of the “litterally”s were used appropriately, but literal means literal. You can’t “literally” be blown away unless a gust of wind moves you a significant distance. I love the show. Not literally, Jay

The Height of Know-It-All Pretension

Are you looking for a movie review podcast hosted by a couple of incredibly pretentious, know-it-all film snobs? Then this is the show for you! Matt & Jessie know more about movies than you & they’re out to prove it. Or so they think…
I used to think that The Mads were the snobbiest film reviewers out there until I listened to these two. Trace & Frank have nothing on those two. They’re, at least funny & entertaining while being film snobs. These two are just boring & haughty. Skip this.
