May 04, 2020 02:16 - 1 hour - 74.2 MBPointless evil plan alert! GTTP loves a good plan that is both useless AND stupid and Disturbing Behavior features a great example. Parents, is your child...basically normal? If so, sign their souls over to a man you just met so they can wear a cardigan to school at 17 years old. Totally worth it.
154. Serenity
April 27, 2020 13:26 - 1 hour - 66.1 MBGet to the Podcast gets to the nature of reality with this week’s 2019 hit SERENITY. Matthew McConaughey as a hard drinking chain smoking fishing boat captain?

April 06, 2020 02:51 - 1 hour - 67.5 MBThis week we examine what happens when you take a beloved property and turn it into a surefire hit movie by....not making the movie anything like the original story. That's right, this week we're covering one of the worst adaptations into film ever: Resident Evil.

150. Year of the Dragon
March 30, 2020 12:06 - 1 hour - 65.5 MBAn uncharismatic crime drama or underrated gem? This is the question of Year of the Dragon.

147. Demon Knight
March 01, 2020 14:57 - 1 hour - 60.2 MBThe worst thing in the world is wasted talent. These wise words from Sonny should have been spoken to Billy Zane, an actor that one half of this podcast apparently feels had the makings of being a top ten actor in movie history.

January 26, 2020 17:12 - 1 hour - 56.6 MBThis week GTTP takes a trip inside the insane circus that is the Nevada criminal justice system.

January 20, 2020 14:13 - 1 hour - 56 MBThe year is 1995. A relatively unknown director who merely wants to live a humble existence making movies where he films entire city blocks explode.

140. Hobbs & Shaw
January 12, 2020 17:47 - 1 hour - 80.7 MBIn this week's episode we attempt to not discuss The Fanatic, and fail miserably. We also spend a little time discussing one of the biggest movies of 2019, the bland and instantly forgettable Fast & Furious Presents: Hobbs & Shaw. What a terrible title! Have action blockbusters regressed for the last ten years? Hobbs & Shaw will answer that.
139. The Fanatic
January 05, 2020 19:46 - 1 hour - 83.1 MB2019. One of the best movie years in recent memory. Once Upon a Time in Hollywood, The Irishman, Joker, and THE FANATIC.

136. The Good Son
December 08, 2019 16:14 - 1 hour - 55.9 MBThe season for Macaulay Culkin is here. No, we aren't doing Home Alone, we already did that. No we aren't doing Home Alone 2...yet.

135. Next of Kin
December 02, 2019 02:03 - 1 hour - 61.5 MBWhat if we took a fish out of water and then put it into water just with buildings instead of mountains around it? Well, then you would have the premise of Next of Kin.
134. Law Abiding Citizen
November 25, 2019 02:19 - 1 hour - 78.7 MBThis weeks' episode matches our technical prowess with the technical ability of the plot of our movie. Sorry for any audio issues we couldn't get it together this week. Then again, this movie is so terrible maybe it's not bad thing.

November 17, 2019 21:27 - 1 hour - 61.5 MBIt's the age old town of a town being terrorized by a local political figure who refuses to acknowledge a sinister issue in his town in order to maintain his grip on power.

128. Ghost
October 14, 2019 01:55 - 1 hour - 73 MBThe movie Ghost: Nothing breaks our hearts like a movie starring a ghost coming to terms with everything they must leave behind on Earth.

Ryan: Ditto.
127. Varsity Blues
October 06, 2019 23:57 - 1 hour - 79 MBLet's take a trip down memory lane in West Canaan Texas. Remember the times you were on the Coyotes and in the prime of your life. Certainly don't think about your current day life where your son is a backup QB who has disappointed you by merely getting a full ride to an Ivy league university. He couldn't even knock your Lone Star off your head from 8 yards away. Sorry, this was meant to be a writeup about Varsity Blues but it turned into a supportive letter to Mr. Moxon.
126. Snake Eyes
September 23, 2019 01:04 - 1 hour - 67.9 MBThis week's movie features a disgusting portrayal of Atlantic City, New Jersey. This movie supposes that police officers in this lovely destination town are easily bribed, on drugs, gambling and committing crimes of their own... Ok this movie portrays Atlantic City. Nic Cage plays Rick Santoro, a manic dirtbag with a heart of gold attempting to solve a who done it mystery, only it's extremely obvious who done it from the opening credits. Get to the Podcast and hit the jackpot!
125. Red Lights
September 15, 2019 12:44 - 1 hour - 73.4 MBMagic is real! Or at least a blind guy can see? Or maybe this is just a universe full of conmen ranging from ages 8 to 65? We...don't...know. Red Lights is a uniquely ridiculous movie that the duo had to tackle eventually. The guys take turns having their heads explode as they witness the world's first Nicolas Cage impression, Sigourney Weaver will her character to death to escape acting in this atrocity halfway through, and of course, Bobby D levitating. This is a film that deserves to be s...

September 08, 2019 14:16 - 1 hour - 66.3 MBGTTP is getting back to some good ole' fashioned JCVD fun this week with 1995's SUDDEN DEATH!

Is there such a thing as being ranked a "top fire fighter in the nation?" Get to the Podcast to find out the answers to these questions and more!
123. Perfect Stranger
September 01, 2019 15:49 - 1 hour - 76.5 MBGTTP is going with a slightly obscure one this week.... BUT IT WAS WORTH IT! What do you get when you combine a painfully phoned in Bruce Willis, Halle Berry 5 years removed from a best actress win doing Razzie caliber work, and an ending that features a character explaining the plot for twenty straight minutes? Why 2007's PERFECT STRANGER of course! This one was... a doozy. Time to Get to the Podcast!
122. Waterworld
August 19, 2019 23:44 - 1 hour - 77.3 MBEPISODE 122: Yet again, two men enter...ones leaves...OR DO THEY?! For once GTTP is in agreement (somewhat) this week with the Kevin Costner career killer WATERWORLD. Has any movie in history featured this many explosions? Can the world of Mad Max be transported to any setting imaginable and succeed (Answer: yes) Did Dennis Hopper have the best movie villain run of the 90's? Time to Get to the Podcast and get the answers to these questions and more!
121. Hard Rain
July 28, 2019 15:06 - 1 hour - 70.4 MBWas the rain harder than other rain because of flooding? Was it physically painful to be outside during the rain becuase it was heavier than regular rain? We go deep this week trying to define the hardness of this rain that Christian Slater was dealing with on GTTP. So press play and get your hard hitting rain analysis.
120. Mimic
July 21, 2019 16:57 - 1 hour - 65.7 MBGTTP is going back to the late 90's Sci Fi Horror well this week with 1997's MIMIC. What do you get when you combine Alien, The Thing, and Oscar Winning director Guillermo Del Toro? Apparently a mostly underwhelming sometimes insultingly dumb piece of garbage! Time to Get to the Podcast and listen to Kevin and Ryan break down this train wreck.
119. Snakes On A Plane
July 14, 2019 18:03 - 1 hour - 63.9 MBI'm sick of these motherfuckin' podcasters not having an episode about motherfuckin' Snakes On A Plane! Everybody strap in!

Can Cali make it through the episode without falling asleep? A movie featuring GTTP icons Emilio Estevez and Christian Slater is surely enough to keep him awake right? IS THE WESTERN WELL FULLY TAPPED FOR GTTP? (Spoiler alert: it's not). Saddle up you tenderfoots and Get to the Podcast!
117. Vampire's Kiss
June 23, 2019 21:47 - 1 hour - 74.5 MBIt's a debate for the movie ages this week on GTTP: Is over the top Nic Cage good Nic Cage? If you've never seen this one we've got you covered with plenty of batsh&% crazy clips to help answer the question. What constitutes a Cult Classic? If a drama makes you laugh out loud is that the sign of a good movie? DID NIC CAGE RUIN POOR ROBERT BIERMAN (the director)'s CAREER FOR ALL OF ETERNITY? You know what to do. Get to the Podcast to find out the answers to these questions and more!
116. Species
June 16, 2019 15:11 - 1 hour - 82.7 MBA doctor, an alien, and an empath walk into a bar, stop me if you've heard this one before. This is one for the record books, our movie this week is 1995's Species. If this week's movie teaches you anything it's probably that diabetic people are losers, I think? Or maybe it's that hiring the effects guy from Alien doesn't mean your movie should try to be Alien. We can't really tell you one way or another, this is an outright insane movie that needs to be seen to be believed, So Get to the Po...
115. Fatal Attraction

114. Cold Pursuit (AKA Hard Powder)
May 28, 2019 00:40 - 1 hour - 71.1 MBThis week we get to a movie that sounds like it's the most GTTP movie ever filmed. Liam Neeson plays a snow plow driver out for murderous revenge. We started off hot and then...oh boy. Only problem is they accidentally forgot to include the star of the movie for 20 minutes and got lost giving screen time to one of the worst actors we've ever covered. Also this week enjoy a brief but unavoidable discussion of John Wick 3. Happy MDW everybody, enjoy.
113. Fallen
May 11, 2019 21:37 - 1 hour - 60.2 MBIt's back to that 90's Denzel well for GTTP this week with the underrated 1998 gem FALLEN. Why does no one list this as one of Denzel's better films?

Time to Get to the Podcast to find out the answers to these questions and more!
112. The Purge
May 05, 2019 15:53 - 1 hour - 76.2 MBThis week's episode features one of the best movie premises you've ever heard. This week's episode features the worst movie premise you've ever heard. This week's episode features just one movie. You know what that means; The Purge is a MESS!

That's right, we're bringing you an erotic thriller starring Michael Douglas and Sharon Stone; Basic Instinct. Nick Curran is the worst cop on planet Earth, Catherine Tramell is a master manipulator/sociopath. In other words, they're made for each other.
109. Road House
April 15, 2019 01:32 - 1 hour - 77.6 MBOne of the most absurd films that takes place in "reality" in movie history. Road House brings us to the Double Deuce, a desolate bar in rural Missouri that pays a single bouncer, sorry cooler, nearly 200k a year, replaces all of it's furniture daily and is completely free from being policed by society. The main character? Your run of the mill NYU graduate who is a kung fu expert/elite bouncer. Your villain? A business man with seemingly zero shady ventures, with a grand total of 5 henchmen ...
