Episodes
I couldn't hold off any longer, I had to know if I'm by myself in saying that this movie is better than the original. Like before, they have never seen this movie before either! Since they weren't blown away by the original, maybe the City Hunter can make them super fans of Predator. Also in the episode, we hear about Anita's extreme dislike for a certain actress, Chris gives a review of Madame Web and has some shocking opinions, I get nerdy as I let my co-hosts know of all the times Ice Cube...

You want a podcast? I'll give you a podcast! It's been years but we are finally getting back to the residences full of evil and we watched what was always my favorite film in the series! Will that change? There are only three Hustlers left this week, Anita, Chris and myself. We don't know where PJ is. If you can't tell from reading this summary, I am a huge RE nerd and I definitely had some complaints that most likely annoyed my co-hosts. I have multiple childhood stories I told about this...

There is a lot going on this week and since I don't want to leave you with no episode, I dug into the Patreon vault and pulled out one of our hypest episodes. I got PJ to watch a bunch of episodes of Soul Train and like a typical music filled episode, it went WAY longer than it was supposed to. I hope you enjoy this look back into the vault and i'll have something new for you next week!

Somehow Chris and Anita have never seen Predator! It's time to change that because Predator is a classic...Or is it? We all may not agree. I definitely have an opinion on this film that most never agree with me on. PJ also stopped by for a little bit but he had actually watched Predator before! We debate on what Schwarzenegger's best one liner is, our favorite "sweaty" action movies, Chris has some harsh words for his fellow weebs, PJ is thrown off by The Lion King's special edition and we...

It's been 7 years of Hustlin'! We got a real special episode this week because not only are we finally doing Black Caesar...PJ IS BACK!!! We got him back this week and even though he didn't see the movie, we had a lot to talk about. We discussed the good and bad of the film, the ending left some of us angry, a scene killed the momentum of the film for all of us and we had to show love to that soundtrack. We also discuss wrestling, how bulls--t car insurance is, how long you can survive with a...

Until this day, all I have ever seen of Robin Hood was that quick scene in the original Shrek. Now because of Patreon, I got to see what exactly Mr. Hood is all about (And i'm not talking KMD...Someone got that reference. ) For a long time I had this confused with the Mel Brooks parody and of course this is another over two hour Kevin Costner movie! Anita had to sleep off a hangover this week so Chris and I held it down and broke the film down and all the edits we'd have done to fix the...

After a trip through Woop Woop last week, the energy is high again and Chris is holding it down with me once again but Anita drops some lines in-between her nap. (We recorded super late.) None of us had any idea what this movie was but Nichol from The Superiority Complex wanted us to see this so bad, that she passed me her DVD copy! We discuss the dime-a-dozen erotic thrillers of the 90s and Chris compares a certain action movie to that genre, which I couldn't believe, we give our thoughts on...

Since Awful Hero gave us this film as his Patreon pick, i've been so curious to see just what the hell this was. Chris and I watched it and I still don't know what the hell this is! I'm counting on our Australian listeners to give me some answers this week. Chris helped me out a lot this week and when we weren't hanging out in Woop Woop, we also discussed the Psycho films, The Flintstones, the Lost in Space remake from 1998, Dragon Ball Z games and we both reminisce about the old Fight Night...

To put it the way Anita did, "We actually get to watch a real movie this week!" I admittedly wasn't as excited about this because I had seen this movie before...20 years ago. There is a story behind that and i get into it on the show but this really felt like a blast from the past. We had all pretty much seen it before, Chris only in pieces though. The conversation also gave me the chance to nerd out with some old video formats, I speak on my disinterest in Jackie Chans American film era,...

The Patreon Picks strike hard this week. It took me years to find this damn movie! Not only did I find it, I found the "directors cut!" Dedication folks! Luckily, I had a full house to help me figure out just what the hell happened in this film as Chris, Anita and The Homie Mike Bagford are here with me! The movie gave us a lot to chew on as we discuss how Christopher Walken looks like a Shrek character in this film, Mike Bagford compares the soundtrack to a bad Sega CD game, we discuss our...

It's time to wrap up the Black History Month Marathon for 2024 and we also are getting back to the Patreon Picks! Our supporter Jason sent us an Ice-T movie that I haven't seen in almost 15 years. Chris joins me today and in true HVH fashion, we got into the movie and a bunch of other discussions. I give my thoughts on the new Kendrick Lamar "diss" verse, reminisce about the old Stranglehold video game, Chris gets called out for shenanigans last week, we talk about the new Quiet on Set...

The Black History Month Marathon is winding down and after having a lor of fun with Shaq in a superhero movie next week, I had to bring it back down to life, back to reality and see what's up with the second film from The Hughes Brothers. Chris and Anita have never seen this one and I haven't watched it in many years. Anita also has a PSA to share with everyone, I learn about "trauma bonding" and I laugh a lot about snitching on The First 48. We hope you enjoy the show!

If you have been a long time listener of HVH, there has been a running joke between us and Everything I Learned from Movies Podcast. Six years later, we are finally going to end the joke and review Steel! Steve and Izzy are here with us of course but we also had a surprise visit from PJ! We also talked about "finger blasting," turkey hot dogs, other bad comic movies from 1997, Anita shows Steve some love and I most likely make a lot of listeners upset with my thoughts about this film compared...

Anita has her pick this week and this is a classic that I have never sat and watched. I always heard that I would love it. Yeah, it's a love story but it's all about hip hop though. I love the soundtrack, got it back in the day, time to see if the film matches it! I got to be all in my zone with the movie this week, I drop hip hop knowledge on Chris and Anita, Chris shares the song that made him fall in love with hip-hop, Anita gives a shocking review of Mortal Kombat: Annihilation, Chris...

This is a big one folks, I didn't realize how much so until I put the post up on Wednesday and let everyone know this was the next episode. I had never watched this before because the people I grew up around said it was wack! I know bits about it because of pop culture osmosis but today, thanks to Chris, i'm finally gonna find out why someone is kissin' Converses. Anita also goes hard on some rude theatergoers during a showing of The Lion King stage play we went to go see last weekend and I...

Let's wrap up month one of the Black History Month Marathon with a movie that I have never seen! Anita really wanted this and Chris didn't want this at all! Since Anita hated Beat Street, I figured this would be more up her alley and I was right because the whole time she was hype and she even remembered seeing this in the theater. TWICE! We also let Chris know that he's accidently created a catch phrase for himself, I learn a new way to go shopping and I have a new impression to add to my...

The moment I saw that trailer, I knew I had to check this out. This looked like it could be worse than Morbius and that excited me! Why? I love trash that's why and apparently Anita does too because she was right here with me to go see it. The big question that had to be answered though, is this "good" bad or was it just bad, bad? We'll tell you all about it!
If you have seen it, let us know if you agree.
Patrons heard it first but we had to unlock this one for everyone! If you like this and...

This week we get to cover an often-overlooked Spike Lee joint! Following up Do The Right Thing was going to be a monstrous task for any filmmaker but could Spike pull it off? As seems to be the norm around here, Chris and Anita are watching this for the first time and surprisingly, we all had very strong and very similar opinions about one thing in this film. Not too many tangents this week, Mo' Better gave us a lot to chew on and discuss but we did talk about the Super Bowl and a movie with...

It's been so long that i've wanted to get Beat Street on the show! Even more fun is that Anita and Chris have never seen it before. Very curious to see if it does anything for people who weren't there in the 80s and aren't big fans of old school hip hop like me. You know I got my nerd on and dropped knowledge as much as possible, you know I played some music and I may have just made Anita a Kool Moe Dee fan! Anita was also very annoyed by two of the central characters in the film so we had a...

It's Black History Month and the marathon starts now am I don't know why it took us this long to do Shaft but i'm fixing that now. Even better is that Anita and Chris have never seen this before! I definitely get my nerd on with some movie and music trivia this week, we talk about those dudes in the mall that really want to clean your shoes, we are all in agreement about shower sex being overrated, we laugh about post hook up goody bags and I give my thoughts about the new Robocop video game!...

This is it! We reached the end of the Harry Potter series and I was told that this would be my favorite in the series. We also got some notes from a die hard Potter fan listener and i found out that Chris and Anita had been lying to me about some things! Anita gives her quick thoughts on Scarface and the 1995 Mortal Kombat film, Chris tries his hand at a tongue twister and unfortunately as we recorded this, Anita and I were dealing with Dat Rona, it finally got me but i'm feeling better now...

I'm another year older and to celebrate, I went back home to Ohio to visit family and friends and of course, got them on the microphone. It's a stacked line up this week, PJ is here, Anita is here, Chris is here, Cameron is here, Tiffany is here and for the first time ever, my dad is here! We had all been drinking, a lot and because of the subject matter of the film and all of us being Black, we got into some "spirited" debates...See what I did there? We had been drinking, so it's "spirited?"...

We're finally getting to the end of the Harry Potter series but still not quite there yet since they decided to make this a two parter. After all these movies, all these mulligans i've given it, this one finally had me start asking questions about how stupid the Wizarding World may be. On top of that Anita and I have a debate on just how grimey Harry Potter can be. Was it innocent or was Harry out here dirty mackin'? Let us know who you side with because like Joe, I wanna know! Because of my...

Happy New Year! The Hustle continues as we head back to Hogwarts after major listener demand! Since Goblet of Fire i've been warming up on this series, the last one was a slight drop but can this some pick the pace back up? Also in this episode, Chris shows love to Domino's, Anita shocks me by revealing that she's seen Paranormal activity and for the first time in a long while, we all agree on the same score. You wanted it listeners and you got it and you get more next week! We hope you enjoy...

To wrap up 2023 and end The Christmas Hustle, I watched my first Madea movie AND got incredibly drunk while doing it! Anita thought that this movie would make for a fun discussion, and she was right! We talk about all the weird stuff in this film, Chris lets his country accent slip really hard, Anita is making sound effects in the background, Brent is telling stories and referencing surprising shows and I give my love and thanks to my co-hosts and you guys listening! We hope you enjoy the...
