Episodes
107. Casper
March 31, 2019 14:34 - 1 hour - 57.8 MBIt's Casper the Friendly, Lonely, Depressed, Abandoned, Manipulated Ghost. The unquestioned saddest movie in GTTP history, this one almost ground the podcast to a halt. The true curse of this movie isn't Casper's inability to pass on, it's the audience being forced to confront the darker undertones of this child's film. Try your best to not think too hard about this one or you'll end up like your favorite hosts, dejected and devastated for our poor friendly ghost.
106. The Last Witch Hunter
March 24, 2019 17:46 - 1 hour - 64.2 MBVin Diesel has made a fantasy movie. Surely this won't fail like the other four times he's tried this. Sorry, what was that? He failed spectacularly?

105. Tango & Cash
March 17, 2019 02:14 - 1 hour - 70.2 MBA momentous episode of GTTP this week for your ears. Tango, Cash, Sly, Russell. This is as heavy hitting as 80's action gets. Does the GTTP duo have what it takes to take on Ray Tango and Gabriel Cash? Each member did a cycle of steroids to prepare for this episode and we're still not sure we can withstand the force of a movie that contains daytime car sex, a boot shotgun, or a police officer who is immune to bullets, AND THAT'S JUST CASH'S FIRST SCENE! Strap in listener, this is a big week ...
104. The Predator
March 11, 2019 11:29 - 1 hour - 87.2 MBWhat happens when you take an iconic franchise, give it a great director who also has appeared in the first classic movie? You get...the worst movie of 2018. Why Shane, why? Predator politics, alien dogs playing fetch, a wooden board for a lead, The Predator truly has it all. Unfortunately, having it all is far too much to make a good movie.
103. Righteous Kill
March 03, 2019 15:41 - 1 hour - 70.8 MBWhat do you get when you combine two of the most decorated and respected actors of our lifetime for their first ever team up film? An...awfully written cop drama that features a 68 year old Al Pacino banging out bench press reps like he's Stallone in his prime? Join us this week as we watch two unquestionable legends attempt to tarnish untarnishable legacies by acting in one of the thinnest scripts we've ever encountered. Are there two character traits per main character? No, no there is not...
102. Speed 2: Cruise Control
February 17, 2019 19:24 - 58 minutes - 53.1 MBIt's the bad Speed, the much much worse, much duller Speed.

We appreciate your time, now do what you know has to be done and Get to the Podcast!
99. The Happening
January 27, 2019 21:16 - 1 hour - 83.5 MBIt's happening! GTTP has accidentally stumbled upon one of their deepest episodes of all time this week. The warning signs were there, M Night bomb, Zooey Deschanel clearly banking a paycheck, Mark Wahlberg.....is in it. All of this leads us to a nearly endless source of questions. We could have gone on for hours but eventually decided to show mercy on our own brains. Hope you guys enjoy Getting to the Podcast this week as much as we enjoyed ending this episode.
98. Alien 3
January 19, 2019 18:26 - 1 hour - 66.6 MBEp 98 of GTTP sees Kevin and Ryan go back to the Alien well with the 1992 David Fincher banger ALIEN 3. This ep features an intense argument where one member argues it's mediocre while the other argues it is....slightly better than that. Can Ryan name three characters in a movie he watched an hour beforehand? Who hates Alien 3 more: Kevin or David Fincher? Was Bishop II a droid or not? Time to Get to the Podcast!
97. I Know Who Killed Me
January 13, 2019 23:05 - 1 hour - 76.8 MBI Know Who Killed Me is what Lindsay Lohan's career says when Lindsay Lohan walks in a room. Get to the Podcast for more of these killers jokes.
96. The Meg
January 06, 2019 20:52 - 1 hour - 72.3 MBJason Statham fights a prehistoric shark. If you require more information about this week's movie your expectations are already far too high. This week the review is about a movie where a shark cage is used to administer a poison dart, no we're not doing Jaws. It's a movie where a shark tracker is fashioned to the shark so that it makes noise whenever it's close, and a small boy argues with his mother that he can go swimming in the soon to be shark infested water. No, we're seriously not doi...
95. The Tourist
December 30, 2018 15:19 - 1 hour - 63.5 MBGather round and listen to the tale of the world's least rewatchable movie ever. That's right, this movie's entire premise only works without knowing the (extremely easily guessed) twist ending. After that, this movie is a jumbled mess of a movie that makes literally no sense. Join us and Get to the Podcast.
94. Venom
December 15, 2018 19:02 - 1 hour - 61.2 MBKnock knock let the devil into GET TO THE PODCAST this week. The devil being a PG-13 rating stamped onto an R rated property. That's right the duo is tackling 2018's TOM HARDY THE MOVIE (aka Venom). One host is insulted while the other is pleasantly surprised this ep. Get to the podcast to find out who's who!
93. The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford
December 08, 2018 23:18 - 1 hour - 76.4 MBThe movie is twice as long as the title. The shots of clouds outnumber the shots of horses, which are endless. That's right, it's one of the best five movies Ryan has ever seen....? OK THEN. GTTP finally tackles a highly controversial movie in their lore, The Assassin....no the titles too long to type again. Get to the Podcast and decide for yourself if this 2.5 hour cowboy flop is actually better than every movie in the IMDB top ten.

91. The Thing
November 26, 2018 01:28 - 1 hour - 70.8 MBNope, we're not doing the good one. That's right, 2011's prequel to the John Carpenter classic is this week's movie. What happens when a super fan director gets to make the movie of his dreams? Well apparently he completely goes away from the qualities that made the first movie great and he turns it into a generic horror movie with no soul. Whoops.
90. Ravenous
November 18, 2018 18:11 - 1 hour - 57.4 MBIt's a horse movie this week for GTTP. Ravenous is a boring movie where nothing happens minus a few people being eaten at one point, Ryan LOVES it! There's almost nothing for the duo to talk about in this boring snooze fest so they spend a lot of the episode talking about snowstorms and the time Kevin manipulated Ryan into making a terrible fantasy football pick. This is more of a deep cut for the loyal listeners as you try to get through hearing about this underground Guy Pearce movie about...
89. Paparazzi
November 11, 2018 14:06 - 1 hour - 63.6 MBOh baby, we got a real doozy this week. Paparazzi, a Mel Gibson fueled fever dream about the life threatening struggles of....having your picture taken. That's right, a movie about the trial and tribulations of a young actor whose career has reached a level he could only fantasize about, and how a slight inconvenience should allow for him to commit mass murder. There's no way to prepare yourself for this movie. You just have to strap in, Get to the Podcast, and hope you survive.
88. Phantasm
November 04, 2018 02:34 - 1 hour - 63.7 MBHappy Halloween from your favorite movie snobs. This week we're revisiting an older horror cult classic, Phantasm. This was a polarizing episode where we couldn't agree if this movie was good for it's microscopic budget or bad for not spending an extra 50 bucks to hire a better actor than Jody. This episode feels much like the movie, a fever dream where no one is really sure what is going on, so Get to the Podcast and try and make sense of it all.
87. Grown Ups
October 21, 2018 00:51 - 1 hour - 63.8 MBThis week is a very special episode of your favorite movie bitch fest. The cynical duo takes a trip back into their snobby past and watches Grown Ups, the movie that defined the realization that they couldn't stand talking to casual movie fans. Watching Adam Sandler & the Gang laugh at their own horrible jokes for an hour and a half (but not THREE AND HALF HOURS) broke their brains. It turned them into who they are today. Perhaps it was the numerous terrible fat jokes, the repeated Rob Schne...
86. Ghosts of Mars
October 06, 2018 17:32 - 1 hour - 74.3 MBOne of the all timer's today. Ghost's of Mars has made our hosts question who made the film, their own existence in life, and how many times over the heroes should have been dead. Is this the most plot hole filled movie in podcast history? It seems like it. Is this movie offensive every step of the way? Absolutely. This episode is strictly business, no time for small talk, just GA GA GA Get to the Podcast!
85. The Commuter
September 15, 2018 18:04 - 1 hour - 55.9 MBGTTP is proud to announce their first Neeson Action thriller this week, that's right we're doing Run All Night! Wait no it's actually Non-Stop! No that's not right it's the not the one on the plane it's the one on the train: 2018's THE COMMUTER!

84. The Faculty
September 09, 2018 05:50 - 1 hour - 65.3 MBAmerican high school X has been taken over by aliens. There is a minor car accident out front which leads to two young girls brawling on the hood of a car. Elijah Wood has the audacity to show up to his first day of school without talking to anyone and gets elbowed in the mouth and then has his groin rammed into a flag poll by 6 other students. A young couple is engaged in an actual physical dispute...I...I'm sorry, this is before the aliens invade. Allow GTTP to check our notes, aliens have...
83. Suburban Commando
August 18, 2018 19:59 - 1 hour - 56.4 MBGTTP is pivoting this week to become a full on wrestling podcast by way of 1991's SUBURBAN COMMANDO. What happens when Kevin and Ryan revisit a beloved childhood classic 20 years later? A case of domestic abuse, a lot of crappy one liners, and an extended discussion over the untapped potential of the great Christopher Lloyd are the answers. Time to Get to the Podcast!
82. Jonah Hex
August 12, 2018 22:01 - 49 minutes - 45.1 MBFrom Hudson Hawk to JONAH HEX, the Gttp duo can't seem to get out of their own way again this week. Why Kevin thought it'd be a good idea to do a supernatural western we have no idea (maybe it's because of the western breakthrough he had on Silverado), but here we are with this 2010 piece of trash. Josh Brolin + Michael Fassbender + Western somehow equals a steaming pile of you know what and Kevin and Ryan are here to explain the whys and the hows of it. Time to saddle up and Get to the P...
81. Hudson Hawk
August 04, 2018 19:39 - 1 hour - 70.2 MBIf ever there was an example of movie star ego going unchecked it's 1991's HUDSON HAWK. GTTP duo Kevin and Ryan subjected themselves to this turkey and ...the results were as expected. Is it a good idea to turn a song into a movie? Whose idea was it to marry a looney tunes comedy to a violent R rated heist film? Spoiler alert the answer is.. Bruce Willis.
80. Boondock Saints II: All Saints Day
July 21, 2018 20:33 - 1 hour - 70.7 MBA highly anticipated sequel to a cult classic with the same cast and director involved, what could possibly go wrong? Oh...almost everything? Join us this week as we try and figure out why Boondock Saints 2 became a sophomoric comedy rife with stupid humor and terrible dialogue. We have one half of the podcast desperately trying to hang on to the original and the other half pointing out that blatantly ripping off The Godfather 2 doesn't make your movie The Godfather 2. So tune in this week a...
79. Silverado
July 14, 2018 19:36 - 1 hour - 66.4 MBGTTP is going back to that wonderful western well this week with the 1985 classic SILVERADO. Is...is this episode? First we tried THE ALAMO. Then it was OPEN RANGE. Can Silverado finally be the western epiphany the GTTP listeners have been waiting for from the so frequently misguided Kevin? Spoiler alert: No. Although one western related code may have been cracked. Time to giddy up and Get to the Podcast!
78. Independence Day
July 08, 2018 18:55 - 1 hour - 68.2 MBThis week's episode brings us one of the greatest blockbusters in movie history.

Today we celebrate not just an American podcast about ID4, but a podcast for all of mankind!
77. Jurassic World
June 23, 2018 17:39 - 1 hour - 74.7 MBDisappointment is the theme of the week on this episode of GTTP. The duo decided now was the time to revisit the underwhelming Jurassic Park reboot JURASSIC WORLD. Is Ryan's anger just movie nerd rage or is it justified? Does returning character Dr Henry Wu even deserve a mention in this episode description let alone three scenes in the movie? WHY THE F%$# DON'T THE RAPTORS KILL OWEN AT THE END?? Find out the answer to these questions and more when you Get to the Podcast!
76. San Andreas
June 16, 2018 18:09 - 1 hour - 65.4 MBYAWWWWWWN. Tune in this week, or don't, for an episode about the blandest movie ever made. Does everything happen exactly as you'd guess? It sure does. Is there ever an acknowledgment that The Rock was 14 years old when he had his daughter? Nope. Of course not. Does Dr. Scientist, Paul Giamatti play any real role in the plot of this movie? He does not. So do yourself a favor and Get to the Podcast and listen to us rant about this piece of wood so you don't have to watch it!
75. Windtalkers
June 02, 2018 18:02 - 1 hour - 64.5 MBThe legacies of John Woo and Nicolas Cage are under the microscope this week via the 2002 war film WINDTALKERS. Was the movie focused on the wrong character? Was Nic Cage blown off the screen by a linguist? Is the movie secretly an XMEN prequel where the mutant ability is deadly accuracy? Find out the answers to these questions and Get to the Podcast soldier.

72. Ransom
May 13, 2018 19:07 - 1 hour - 79.6 MBGIVE ME BACK MY PODCAST. The GTTP duo attempt to bring that Mel Gibson intensity to this week's discussion of 1996's RANSOM. Did I say we were talking about Ransom, because really we're just diving deep into the depths of Mel Gibson's insanity. I guess there's also some small discussion over where Jimmy Shaker ranks in the all time villain list, where the name Jimmy Shaker ranks on the all time movie name list, and a debate over exactly how to handle a family member's kidnapping (spoiler ...
71. Reign of Fire

69. Bloodsport
April 15, 2018 16:52 - 1 hour - 63 MBIt's a very special episode of GTTP this week for Ryan as he views the classic(?) JCVD banger BLOODSPORT for the first time. Does Cali agree it's a classic or is he too focused on Van Damme's 1988 physique to have an opinion? Just which Giants team did Frank Dux really root for? Is it possible for ANY action movie in the 80's or 90's to have a well written female character (spoiler alert: No)? Do the duo give the great Forest Whitaker his due this week?!? Time to get to the Kumite to fi...
68. Blankman
April 07, 2018 17:21 - 1 hour - 59.7 MBWell slap us around and call us Susan, GTTP has finally tackled Blankman! One of the most criminally underrated comedies of the 90's is finally given it's due by two guys on the internet. Is this Damon Wayans best role in a movie? Is there a movie that can more consistently make a person laugh? Who inspired who, Jason Alexander or Al Pacino? Would Robin Givens really care for Blankman or would she just break his heart? Do what you have to, tie tin foil to your toilet, whatever it takes to G...
67. Super Mario Brothers
March 31, 2018 17:24 - 1 hour - 73.6 MBHighly controversial episode this week. One half of the podcast is incensed at the travesty that is the Super Mario Brothers movie, and the other half is wrong.

66. AVP: Alien vs. Predator
March 24, 2018 16:51 - 1 hour - 67.6 MBA Vicious Punishment: Alien vs Predator is on the docket this week. What happens when you take two of the most beloved franchises of all time and hand them over to a horrid director and also let him write the movie? Well, the movie sucks that’s what. Faceless bland characters, neither franchise honored properly and a super sonic sled are the result of this travesty. Don’t worry though, our two humble heroes take this movie apart in all of the ways that were not only necessary but absolutely...

March 04, 2018 18:07 - 1 hour - 80.8 MBGttp is wild for 1998's Wild Things this week....or are they?! There is A LOT to unpack in this one. Whether it's making sense of some illogical character actions or the ahead of the curve use of incest sex scenes (looking at you Game of Thrones) Kevin and Ryan have their hands full. The twist is....that there at least nine of them.
62. Sphere
February 24, 2018 18:17 - 1 hour - 67.8 MBThe year is 1998, mankind has discovered a possible alien craft, the plan is to skim over a report written by a psychologist 20 years earlier and hastily assemble a crack squad of civilians to board the ship.

That’s right, we’re talking Sphere. Join us as we try to find out what makes Jerry happy, presumably it’s p...
61. The Bone Collector
February 18, 2018 18:52 - 1 hour - 74.1 MBEmergency podcast mode activate! It took us longer than expected to get this week's episode in the can but we got to the podcast regardless. This week The Bone Collector is our film and let us say, it's terrible. Denzel decided that while making a boxing movie he could make a second movie where he lays down in a bed the whole time to recover from his boxing scenes. The results are about what you'd expect. Angelina Jolie also stars as the classic trope of the ex-supermodel turned cop who als...

59. The Matrix
February 03, 2018 19:15 - 1 hour - 97.4 MBWoah. This week GTTP revisits one of the most influential sci fi/action movies of all time: The Matrix. Did the sequels ruin their enjoyment of the original? Was Keanu Reeves' stiff as a board Neo personality a choice or was he just... a stiff? Is the movie's existence worth all the terrible knock offs it inspired? All that and much more in this week’s edition of Get to the Podcast.
58. The Fan
January 27, 2018 18:34 - 1 hour - 82.9 MBGet to the Podcast celebrates the great Robert De Niro this week with the overlooked gem that is 1996's The Fan.
