Furious 7 (Lap 14)

July 02, 2024 04:00 - 1 hour

Walt Hickey and Kim Bhasin return to the podcast to talk about Furious 7, and why it means so much to each of them. First, though, we must talk about our return to Race Wars and Walt's plan to monetize and televise it. We make our pick for Most 80s Moment (of which they are many!), talk about the seeming obviousness of the film's tax incentives, and (of course) No Knees Denise. Kim shares the Most Wrestling Moment (it isn't what you think!) and Walt talks about how the Most D&D Moment shows a...

Fast X Your Belts | Life in the Fast Lane #29

June 25, 2024 04:00 - 58 minutes

It's time for another Life in the Fast Lane, and since we're at the Demolition Derby, you better Fast X Your Belts! After breaking down a deleted/extended scene from 2 Fast 2 Furious, we run through a very light news day On the Streets, but find ourselves knee-deep in another (edited) installment of Running the Vin. We go overboard with audio drops and face an angry mob in our YouTube comments. Joe talks about going to Canada; Joey talks about going to the movie theater. We get breaking news ...

Fastivus Special 2024

June 22, 2024 04:00 - 14 minutes

Happy Fastivus! On this day in 2001, The Fast and the Furious was released to theaters. We celebrate its release every year. This year, though, is a bit different -- it's the most unsure the franchise has been in a long time -- and we explore what that means and what next year's Fastivus episode could look like, given that uncertainty. We also unveil the newest 2 Fast 2 Forever Hall of Fame inductee class and wonder: did people sour on some movies? Email us: [email protected] Visit our Patr...

The Fast & The Furious: Tokyo Drift (Lap 14)

June 18, 2024 04:00 - 1 hour

The train owners are back in town: Kim Bhasin and Walt Hickey return to talk about The Fast & The Furious: Tokyo Drift! Kim explains why Tokyo Drift is the rare coming of age story that he can relate to, we get new thoughts (and a brand new take) on the "Sean's dad dilemma," and we question an element of Sean Boswell's wardrobe. We talk about how "the wrong kid died," what this movie does that's rare in the franchise, and a pop culture reference that still works today. We cover all the usual ...

Troll (1986)

June 11, 2024 04:00 - 54 minutes

Our 80s Cult Movie lap continues with Troll, which falls right in line with some of the other pit stop movies we've been watching. We talk about JK Rowling totally definitely no way using this movie as inspiration for Harry Potter, the mixed feelings that Julia-Louis Dreyfus has about Troll, and what John Carl Buechler (predominantly a special effects guy) brought to the helm as director. We make our picks for the Most 80s Moment (and Joe makes a bonus pick), we discuss which residents of the...

Tanner is Bilkins. Bilkins is Tanner. | Life in the Fast Lane #28

June 04, 2024 04:00 - 1 hour

It’s time for another Life in the Fast Lane, and we have a conundrum on our hands: Tanner is Bilkins. Bilkins is Tanner. First, though, voting is now open for the 2 Fast 2 Forever Hall of Fame! Vote now. We’ll wait. Done? Great! We break down the first deleted scene from 2 Fast 2 Furious and catch an error of unknown origin. We also talk about who Bilkins would have fallen in love with, if he knew Brian’s experience first-hand. We add a new segment — Running the VIN — and cover more news, inc...

Labyrinth (1986)

May 28, 2024 04:00 - 1 hour

We're on a real roll with "child reading a book" movies this lap, and today we're talking about Labyrinth with Jordan Polan-Clarke! After Joey shares his surprising (at least to him) history with this movie, we discover we have a split opinion on David Bowie's music in this movie. We talk about Labyrinth's strong use of the color brown, discuss whether the movie and its performances are "too theater-y," and pitch an alternate version of this movie with Bowie's character in the real world. We ...

Fast & Furious 6 (Lap 14)

May 21, 2024 04:00 - 1 hour

Walt Hickey and Kim Bhasin return to the podcast to talk about Fast & Furious 6 because "this is London, baby." After learning one (and only one) train fact, we discuss the most '80s thing in any Fast & Furious movie. We talk about Fast & Furious 6 as a pivot point for the franchise, cars being used in new ways, and a ton of time spent in hideouts. Walt hits us with many D&D-themed elements and Kim does the same with wrestling moments. Joe wonders if there's any security at 1327 (like, at all...

Credits (19 Thumbs Up, 0 Thumbs Down) | Life in the Fast Lane #27

May 14, 2024 04:00 - 1 hour

It's time to finish up 2 Fast 2 Furious in the F&F Minute as we cover the rest of the film's credits! We give them 19 thumbs up, 0 thumbs down. In covering "a minute" without audio, we parse the credits order/character split and explore some notable names in the credits. We pivot to one of the most important On the Streets segments in months, including: rough production dates for Fast Xi (and where it will take place), why Universal is freaking out about the future of the franchise, the disas...

The NeverEnding Story (1984)

May 07, 2024 04:00 - 1 hour

Fan favorite Garrett Smith returns to the podcast as we cover our next 80s Cult Classic movie: The NeverEnding Story! After talking about our history (or lack thereof) with this movie -- and our shared history of taping movies off TV -- we talk about how this movie haunted kid-aged Garrett. Joe makes a request to bring back making movies inspired by hallucinogens. We discuss the German version of this movie, the one change the writer absolutely hated, and the physical puppets and effects in t...

Fast Five (Lap 14)

April 30, 2024 04:00 - 1 hour

We need two precision drivers, so Walt Hickey and Kim Bhasin return to the podcast once again as we head back to Rio de Janeiro to talk about Fast Five! After honoring Walt for the 2F2F history that he set, we talk about the movie's Most 80s Moment, which is a more difficult task than any other movie so far this lap. We discuss the sweat in this movie (and the smell in all movies), admire the train heist (and the movie's other big setpieces), and talk about the prominence of Mia in both the p...

Show Me the Money! | Life in the Fast Lane #26

April 23, 2024 04:00 - 59 minutes

On today's installment of Life in the Fast Lane, we ask Brian and Roman to "show me the money!" (well, show us the money) as we close out 2 Fast 2 Furious, minute by minute! After figuring out how much money they stole, we preview the next handful of minute breakdowns we'll do. We then head to On the Streets, where we talk about Denzel Washington as Mr. Nobody, Justin Lin directing Spider-Man 4, and Vin Diesel oversharing on Instagram. A new emailer reminds Joe about a thing we've lost. In Ex...

The Princess Bride (1987)

April 16, 2024 04:00 - 1 hour

Our next '80s Cult Classic pick is The Princess Bride, and we've got Nate Milton (@N8Mozaik) here to talk about it! After we talk about the "pressure" of covering The Princess Bride, Nate shares his history with the movie. We talk about the "magic tricks" of the story (and framing device) and how it plays with classic tropes. We dunk on Ben Savage a bit, hear some stories about Andre the Giant, and wonder when and where a video game adaptation of this movie came from. We talk about "Dom Toret...

Fast & Furious (Lap 14)

April 09, 2024 04:00 - 1 hour

Kim Bhasin and Walt Hickey return to the podcast once again to talk about both Los Bandoleros and Fast & Furious! After discussing a weird timing coincidence, we explore Los Bandoleros: why it exists, why it's all vibes, and whether or not we want more like it. We make our picks for the "most 80s moments" of the movie, talk about action movies vs. heist movies and criminal vs. fugitive movies, and debate why the DoJ would hire Brian. Kim gets surprised by Fenix's incredibly visceral death. Wa...

Wooden Fire Pits | Life in the Fast Lane #25

April 02, 2024 04:00 - 1 hour

In this installment of Life in the Fast Lane, we're covering the last full minute of 2 Fast 2 Furious, which includes... wooden fire pits? We discuss whether or not Eva Mendes has a type (yes, the world's sexiest men) and Joe does some detective work about wood in this scene. We cover the limited news On the Streets, but we look ahead to Fast Xi (and which cast members may be on the chopping block). Joe makes a demand of Universal (#UniversalMonstersWhoMadeTheBudget). We cover the season fina...

Little Shop of Horrors (1986)

March 26, 2024 04:00 - 1 hour

Our 1980s Cult Favorites lap continues with Little Shop of Horrors, and we’re joined by Mike Manzi to talk all about it! After learning about the very specific way that Mike first watched this movie, we explore *just how much* Joe hated this movie and whether he’d like the Roger Corman version more. We talk about the most ’80s moments (in a movie basically set in the ’50s), take a semi-deep dive into the Academy Award for Best Original Song, and explore the two very different endings to this ...

2 Fast 2 Furious (Lap 14)

March 19, 2024 04:00 - 1 hour

Walter Hickey and Kim Bhasin return to the podcast to give a special shoutout to Miami and to talk all things 2 Fast 2 Furious! We kick things off with an award focus by briefly recapping this year's Oscars with Mr. Numlock News Awards Supplement, talking about Al Pacino's cell phone, and exploring the awards this movie won. We discuss John Singleton's presence (and Vin Diesel's absence), the movie's most 1980s moments, and the Shakespearean elements of 2 Fast 2 Furious. Joey explains Lance B...

7hat's in the Bag? | Life in the Fast Lane #24

March 12, 2024 04:00 - 1 hour

It's time for another Life in the Fast Lane, and we're wondering: "7hat's in the bag?" We start things off with the 2 Fast 2 Furious Minute (#99), in which Joe wonders if the filmmakers are "toying with us" (???) and we both admire the movie's two best extras doing even more amazing background acting. We pivot to On the Streets to cover a lot of news, including Vin Diesel's post about the franchise's "grand finale" and a possible new title formatting. Is Vanessa Kirby the most successful and ...

Predator (1987)

March 05, 2024 05:00 - 1 hour

Our first pit stop in the ’80s Cult Movies lap is Predator, and we’re joined by Mark Hofmeyer (Deep Blue Sea: The Podcast; Movies, Films & Flix) to talk all about it! After discussing another franchise with a naming convention as messed up as F&F, Mark pitches True Detective: Season 5 before we (finally) return to crazy credits. We discuss the evolution of the predator’s costume and design, the way the movie subverts ’80s masculinity tropes, and how it’s more of a slasher than an action movie...

The Fast and the Furious (Lap 14)

February 27, 2024 05:00 - 1 hour

It's time to kick off Lap 14, our '80s Cult Movie lap, and we're joined by Walt Hickey and Kim Bhasin to talk about The Fast and the Furious! After getting a refresher of their history with this movie, we kick things off by talking about the most '80s elements of this movie -- and the associated weirdness of this ask. Walt already starts connecting this franchise to D&D. We look at The Fast and the Furious as both the start of a franchise and as a standalone movie, we admire the second unit d...

Ferrari (2023)

February 20, 2024 05:00 - 1 hour

Lap 14 kicks off next week, but we're taking a thousand-mile detour before we get there to talk about Michael Mann's Ferrari! After exploring the many past iterations of Ferrari, we discuss the history of the Mille Miglia and the connection this movie has to Entourage. Joe describes the experience of watching and understanding this movie as an Italian, and Joey discusses the moment where he realized that acting is weird. We rank the concepts of cars, sons, wives, and mistresses. Joe talks abo...

Lap 13 Tune-Up (Recap/Relap)

February 13, 2024 05:00 - 55 minutes

We're closing out our Planes, Trains, But NO Automobiles lap and welcoming in Lap 14 in our mechanic-prescribed Lap 13 Tune-Up. We kick things off by, at long last, looking up various definitions of the word "vehicle" (and feeling validated) before we look back at the past lap's episodes, theme, and vehicles. Then, for the first time, we introduce our lap's sponsors -- Michael Moser and Josh Buckley -- as we share the upcoming theme... and some of their picks. Michael takes the character qu...

Roman's Holiday: The Interquel | Life in the Fast Lane #23

February 06, 2024 05:00 - 1 hour

We're a week "late" (and don't get us started on how overdue the next one will be), but the next Life in the Fast Lane is finally here, and it's all about Roman's Holiday: The Interquel! We're nearing the end of 2 Fast 2 Furious, and Minute 98 features a slew of acting extras, the likes of which we haven't seen in a long, long time. We then pivot to On the Streets: Presented by ReactionRocket, to cover *so* much news, including: What will the future of the franchise look like? Will the next m...

Rumble in the Bronx (1995)

January 30, 2024 05:00 - 1 hour

It's time for our last pit stop in the Planes, Trains, but NO Automobiles lap with a very fitting selection: Rumble in the Bronx! We spend a lot of time admiring Jackie Chan's physicality and comedy (and how they contribute to the best sequences in the movie) before sharing our love for the language dub and the decision to sub Vancouver for the Bronx. We talk about how little the plot matters (and how it doesn't pay off), break down the movie's threatening version of baseball, and explore the...

Fast X (Lap 13)

January 23, 2024 05:00 - 1 hour

It's time for our final Fast and Furious movie of the lap, Fast X, and we're joined by Zaki Hasan (@ZakisCorner) to talk about it! After learning Zaki's history with the F&F franchise, we discuss why Fast X didn't quite hit for him -- and why that doesn't really bother him. We create a new way to stylize the next movie's title that both makes sense and would still confuse everyone. We imagine bad news and wonder: if the franchise ended here... where would you tell people to stop watching? Joe...

I've Had it with These Monkey-Fighting Cars on This Monday Through Friday Boat | Life in the Fast Lane #22

January 16, 2024 05:00 - 1 hour

We're back for another Life in the Fast Lane (and our longest title yet) to talk about another perfectly contained 2 Fast 2 Furious Minute, now enhanced by our Icons Unearthed knowledge. We then turn to On the Streets to cover the Vin Diesel allegations (as far as we understand them) before pivoting toward Icons Unearthed's least exciting episode yet (about Tokyo Drift and Fast & Furious). We further explore the inexplicable popularity of our George Pickens merch and hear from a bunch of angr...

Passenger 57 (1992)

January 09, 2024 05:00 - 59 minutes

We're betting it all on black -- and heading to a small town carnival? -- as we're joined by Garrett Smith (@filmadelphia) to talk about Passenger 57! After establishing the particular ties we have to this movie, we compare Passenger 57 to other 90s action flicks and Garrett describes the much more interesting version of this movie he thought he was watching. We admire Elizabeth Hurley's complex backstory in the background of scenes, try to make sense of the villain's plan (and who's winning ...

F9 (Lap 13)

January 02, 2024 05:00 - 1 hour

We've got the hottest guest in town -- Brian Rodriguez, producer of Bravo Replay -- joining the show once again, this time to talk about F9! After Joey fumbles the intro (for a valid reason that wound up not mattering), Brian drops some major news... about Joey's life. We then explore F9 for the first time since the release of Fast X, discuss which F&F movies were the "most important one" upon release, and explore the ways the franchise's writers have retconned the franchise. Brian plans out ...

The Christmas Chronicles: Part Two (2020)

December 25, 2023 05:00 - 1 hour

Merry Christmas! Dr. Chris Podcasts is back to fulfill the obligation he made last December: to watch and talk about The Christmas Chronicles: Part Two! After talking about how little we remember from the first movie, we do our best to compare this movie to the that one, as well as to the children's entertainment of our youth. We talk about what we hoped this movie would be -- and what we'd like to see in a third one (which, as of now, does not exist). We talk about Tyrese's surprise appearan...

"Cars Can't Fly, Dom" | Life in the Fast Lane #21

December 19, 2023 05:00 - 1 hour

It's time for another Life in the Fast Lane, and this one reminds us of an iconic line: "Cars can't fly, Dom." (Hey Brian Rodriguez, if you're reading this, I hope it's okay that I used your trademarked word.) We kick things off by covering Minute 96 of 2 Fast 2 Furious, where the car is in the air! (But not yet on the boat.) We explore Carter Verone's bar setup, and we wonder: how is this movie going to wrap up in just four minutes? Joe shares an update on Turbos for Tots, and Joey shares a ...

Crimson Tide (1995)

December 12, 2023 05:00 - 1 hour

We're headed underwater this week to watch Crimson Tide (1995) and ask: did we pick the right submarine movie to watch? After we program a streaming service for dads, Joe shares his history with submarines and we explore the Quentin Tarantino connections to this film. We dive into the U.S. Navy's issues with Crimson Tide, uncover a dark tale about a Sopranos actor in this movie (other than James Gandolfini), and talk about Denzel Washington's turn as a horse girl. We wonder: does this movie a...

Hobbs & Shaw (Lap 13)

December 05, 2023 05:00 - 1 hour

We're headed back to the other timeline (??) to talk about Hobbs & Shaw with returning guest Kate Hudson! To coincide with the launch of her new podcast, Bravo Replay, we're wondering: which F&F movie is the most like a reality show? Which reality stars most closely align with Hobbs & Shaw? We get Kate's revised rankings (and her history with IMDb's Crazy Credits) before we discuss patron Randy Carter's theory of this as a future movie. We posit a world where Dom Toretto becomes a mass murder...

Bram Stoker's 2 Fast 2 Furious | Life in the Fast Lane #20

November 28, 2023 05:00 - 1 hour

We're back with our first Life in the Fast Lane in more than a month, and we're talking all about Bram Stoker's 2 Fast 2 Furious! You'll understand why when you hear us talk about the ninety-fifth minute of 2 Fast 2 Furious, which includes more than one moment that we completely forgot about. We also catch up on a lot of news about the Fastiverse in On the Streets, which also marks the moment when Joe learns about Roku City. We launch a new limited-run segment to cover Icons Unearthed before ...

Planes, Trains & Automobiles (1987)

November 21, 2023 05:00 - 1 hour

Happy Thanksgiving! We're trying to get home to our families -- any way we can -- to talk about Planes, Trains & Automobiles! After trying to think of the (very) few Thanksgiving-based movies that have been made, we talk about the (insane) original runtime of this movie, John Hughes's original casting ideas, and the wild things this production decided to (or had to) spend money on. We talk about traveling before 9/11, our biggest travel frustrations (and biggest travel tips), and tales of car...

The Taking of Pelham One Two Three (1974)

November 14, 2023 05:00 - 1 hour

It's time to talk about more men in rooms (!!!) as we're joined by Aaron Neuwirth (of Out Now with Aaron and Abe) to talk about The Taking of Pelham One Two Three! After talking for a while about men staring at analog boards, we talk about the film's success exclusively in cities with subway systems and how the film's New York spirit shines through. We also talk about the many movies The Taking of Pelham One Two Three inspired, the beautiful simplicity of the bad guys' motives, and why the 19...

The Fate of the Furious (Lap 13)

November 07, 2023 05:00 - 1 hour

We're firing up the zombie cars once again as we talk about The Fate of the Furious with Joshua Gulam, Fraser Elliott, and Sarah Feinstein, the co-editors of Full-Throttle Franchise! We talk about their book -- an academic book about Fast & Furious (published with Bloomsbury Press) -- where the idea came from, new descriptions and theories found within the text, and how they incorporate it (and the franchise) into the teaching. We also talk about the action highlights of The Fate of the Furio...

Monster in the Closet (1986)

October 31, 2023 04:00 - 1 hour

Happy Halloween! We're joined by returning guest (and lover of schlock) Christian Larson to talk about Troma's 1986 film Monster in the Closet. Shot in 1983 (but released three years later), this kids movie (?) marks the film debut of Paul Walker (and also Stacy "Fergie" Ferguson). We talk about our history with Troma, the movie's sort of surprising tone, and its earworm (or not) xylophone song. We explore Paul Walker's star turn (and his character's multiple Nobel prizes?!), the movie having...

Think of the Children | Life in the Fast Lane #19

October 24, 2023 04:00 - 1 hour

It’s time for another installment of Life in the Fast Lane, and Joe has a question for you: won’t anyone please think of the children? We kick things off with a relatively action-packed minute (#94) of 2 Fast 2 Furious, which includes a technological impossibility. We then shift into news about the Fast & Furious from both the real world and the dream world (including some heavy stuff and some very, very dumb stuff). We talk about the difficulty of sourcing and watching Shaky Shivers and Wes ...

Titanic (1997)

October 17, 2023 04:00 - 1 hour

We’re taking a little journey on a little boat named the Titanic, and joining us on this expedition is Walt Hickey! After hearing about Walt’s new book, You Are What You Watch, we talk about non-cars that matter to him (cinematic and otherwise) before reading some truly pathetic crazy credits (and being reminded about IMDb’s humble origins). Joey recounts the tale of PCP in this film production’s clam chowder, we all remember watching this movie on VHS, and we talk about how young is too youn...

Furious 7 (Lap 13)

October 10, 2023 04:00 - 1 hour

The sins of London have followed us home, so we're once again talking about Furious 7, this time with Matt Delhauer! After getting a sense of Matt's history with the franchise (and his rankings), we find out the characters he most wants to see return to these movies as well as the character meeting we never got (but would have loved to see). We gauge the family's levels of invincibility in Furious 7, once again wonder if we could ever return to a smaller story, and discuss what works (and wha...

Pretty Little Customs Agents | Life in the Fast Lane #18

October 03, 2023 04:00 - 57 minutes

It's time for another Life in the Fast Lane, and this episode is all about those pretty little customs agents. (You know the ones, those who betray your confidence.) The minute features some good small acting (and not much else), but it's a very "loosey goosey" conversation as we imagine owning yachts and reading Yachting Monthly. We then explore news about F&F, which is basically non-existent other than The Rock shedding career dead weight and re-embracing what works. We once again plug the ...

The Bullet Train (1975)

September 26, 2023 04:00 - 1 hour

We're headed back to 1970s Japan with the resident historian Mike Manzi to talk about the inspiration for Speed: The Bullet Train! After learning about Mike's favorite vehicles, we hop aboard a train that can't go below 80 KPH to discuss another great title card, what might be cut from the Japanese version of the film, and the way the movie can create tension from a bunch of guys in a room. (Editor's Note: Only in retrospect did Joey realize that, yes, what he loved about this movie is exactl...

The Fast and the Furious: Tokyo Drift (Lap 13)

September 19, 2023 04:00 - 1 hour

We're once again grabbing our uwabaki (more on that later) as we're joined by Matt Stuertz to talk about The Fast and the Furious: Tokyo Drift! Matt begins by dispelling Joey's expectations of his F&F experience and tastes before sharing his rankings and when he thinks these movies work best. We dig deep into Lucas Black's age in this movie, once again worry about breaking this down minute by minute, and wonder: who's the target demo for this movie? Matt shares some thoughts on what he'd like...

Where'd THESE Guys Come From? | Life in the Fast Lane #17

September 12, 2023 04:00 - 1 hour

We've made our way to Tarpon Point for another Life in the Fast Lane, and we're wondering: where'd THESE guys come from? After coming to terms with how long it's going to take us to work our way through Tokyo Drift (on a minute by minute basis), we dive into the ninety-second minute of 2 Fast 2 Furious, where new henchmen arrive and every line of dialogue is delivered with the same intonation. We then talk about the latest F&F news, including David Ayer clapping back, Sung Kang working his wa...

RRR (2022)

September 05, 2023 04:00 - 1 hour

Our next pit stop on the “planes, trains, but NO automobiles” lap is RRR, and we have to wonder: is this a Fast & Furious movie? After discussing our limited history with Bollywood films, Joe admires their pageantry and Joey shares his love for a delayed title card. We talk about character parallels to the family, how this movie follows Chris Morgan’s directive of “cool wins every time,” and whether or not Vin Diesel could learn the right lessons from RRR. We talk about the many plot twists (...

Fast & Furious 6 (Lap 13)

August 29, 2023 04:00 - 2 hours

We're returning to Fast & Furious 6, which our guest Chrissy Shackelford (Last Week Tonight with John Oliver) calls "the quintessential Fast & Furious movie." (Also, in case you're wondering: Chrissy is doing *so* good. Thanks for asking.) After Joe explains Duck Dynasty, we uncover more terrible crazy credits, discuss Gisele's sacrifice (now that we know she's still alive), and play a guessing game about the auctioneer's character name.  We give Chrissy the hard sell on Los Bandoleros and Ra...

The Ballad of Jimbo's Shrimp Shack | Life in the Fast Lane #16

August 22, 2023 04:00 - 1 hour

Gather round, family, and grab a seat, for it's time for you all to hear The Ballad of Jimbo's Shrimp Shack. After debating how to pluralize "Life in the Fast Lane," we dive right into 2 Fast 2 Furious (Minute 91), where Joe regales us with a wild Floridian tale. We work through a diverse array of Fast and Furious news, including an "explanation" for Roman throwing the powder in Fast X, Tyrese vs. Home Depot, Bow Wow's likeness being used in scams, and Gal Gadot shilling Goodles. We also dive...

Rad (1986)

August 15, 2023 04:00 - 1 hour

We're ass sliding our way back to the 1980s for our next pit stop and the best bicycle/BMX movie of all time: Rad! We talk about whether this is the most 1980s movie ever made, the fine work done by Vinegar Syndrome, and the movie's parallels to High School Musical. Joe pitches Rad: After Dark and has his Pittsburgh radar ding once again. We hear another hot take on what makes a vehicle, discuss the movie's attempts to get to 90 minutes any way they can, and organically find ourselves in need...

Fast Five (Lap 13)

August 08, 2023 04:00 - 1 hour

We're headed back to Rio (for the first time in the Fast X era) to talk with Lisa Williams about the original Reyes in Fast Five! After covering more CrAzY cReDiTs, we dive into minutiae with Lisa. We wonder if Mia has ever been in a "real" restaurant before, how bad everyone smells in this movie, and the logistics of both Reyes's money and Tej's garages. We dive deeper into both the "fan favorite" character of Diogo and the actor who portrays him (Luis Da Silva, Jr.). We break down the serie...

Internet Movie Minute Database | Life in the Fast Lane #15

August 01, 2023 04:00 - 59 minutes

**OPPENHEIMER SPOILERS FROM 41:00 TO THE END OF THE EPISODE** It's time for another Life in the Fast Lane, and we have finally reached *the* minute: the Internet Movie Minute Database! After breaking down the minute of 2 Fast 2 Furious that includes everyone's favorite line, we pivot to a real lack of news about the Fast & Furious (because of the WGA and SAG-AFTRA strikes) and try to figure out what's going to be included on the Fast X Blu-ray/4K release. We also wonder: when are these next t...
