December 16, 2019 09:47 - 1 hour - 81.8 MBWhen you hear Assault On Precinct 13, the 1976 John Carpenter film may come to mind. But that's not what we're talking about today!

Episode 19: Snow Falling On Cedars (w/Alex Button)
October 07, 2019 07:00 - 1 hour - 94 MBHonestly, this was a kind of difficult movie to talk about. We're used to joking about Ethan Hawke's artsy lines and romances gone wrong, but this week we had the task of discussing Snow Falling on Cedars, a movie which takes place during World War II and focuses a lot around the discrimination against Japanese Americans in the U.S. before, during, and after WWII. Of course, Ethan Hawke still falls in love, but it was definitely a different kind of movie from the ones we've discussed before....
Episode 18: Joe the King (w/Kevin Bartelt)
September 30, 2019 07:00 - 1 hour - 94.9 MBHey gang! This week we're talking about Joe the King (directed by Frank Whaley, who you may know from A Midnight Clear or his recent cameo in Hustlers). And we're joined by the very fun and cool Kevin Bartelt (@kevbartelt, Maybe Don't). In this one, Ethan Hawke plays a guidance counselor - who wears sandals! He's only in a few scenes, but we wish he had more. Don't we always, though?

Listen to this week's episode for some good chats, more Batman talk, and occasional input from executive producer and former guest, Gio Bayani!
Episode 16: The Newton Boys (w/Nicole Wianecki)
September 16, 2019 07:00 - 2 hours - 118 MBBuckle up! It's going to be a bumpy ride as we hop in our Model T and talk about the 1920s bank robbing romp, The Newton Boys! We're joined by friend and guest, Nicole Wianecki (@nmwianecki) to discuss this star-studded, Richard Linklater-directed flick!

September 09, 2019 07:00 - 1 hour - 93.1 MB*Taylor Swift voice* Everything is green! Her clothes! Her crazy aunt's house! That's right! This week we're talking about Alfonso Cuaron's 1998 film, Great Expectations! And we're joined by special guest, Scott Youngbauer (Movies That Made Us Gay, @scottyoungballer). There are so many fun and very 90s things to discuss, such as Ethan Hawke's hair and the soundtrack featuring Chris Cornell.

Episode 13: Search And Destroy (w/Gabby Zavaleta)
August 26, 2019 07:00 - 1 hour - 67 MBThis week we're joined by friend of the show and sister of Jonathan, Gabby Zavaleta (you can only find her on letterboxd at @gabbyz). We're discussing the 1995 film, Search and Destroy! Wonderful cast, interesting concept, but did it land? Listen to find out what we think!
Episode 12: Before Sunrise (w/Rachel Chapman)
August 19, 2019 07:00 - 2 hours - 111 MBWe're back from our break and entering a new decade of Ethan Hawke! The year, 1995. The place, Vienna. The girl, Julie Delpy. We're joined by Rachel Chapman (You've Got Hanks, @ladytomhanks) to talk about this classic indie romance! We answer hard-hitting questions like, "Would you run off with a stranger you just met on a train?" and "How do you spell crepuscular?" Join us, for another fun episode of Hawkeyes! Cacaw!
Episode 11: Miscellaneous 1994 Projects
August 05, 2019 07:00 - 1 hour - 76.5 MBThis week, we're talking 1994 - the year of our births! Not only were we born that year, but Ethan Hawke decided to take that year to do lots of small appearances in a number of projects. Four projects to be exact! He had cameos in Quiz Show, White Fang 2: The Myth of the White Wolf, Floundering, and the music video for the Juliana Hatfield 3's song, "Spin the Bottle." Join us as we dive into his 1994 performances!

We're joined by Chris Svehla (Pooh Pals, @chrisbored) to discuss the Ethan Hawke classic, Reality Bites! Reality Bites also stars Winona Ryder, Ben Stiller, Janeane Garofalo, and Steve Zahn. What a cast!
Episode 9: Alive (w/Jorge Varon Chisi)
July 22, 2019 07:00 - 1 hour - 97.9 MBThis week, we're talking about the nerve-wracking and devastating 1993 film, Alive, with friend and cannibalism expert, Jorge Varon Chisi (@grilled_chisi)! With the help of our wonderful expert, we compare the real facts of the crash and survival of the Uruguayan rugby team to the portrayal in the film. And, as always, Harper gets off topic several times and Jonathan shares a hawk fact or two. We are also visited by special executive producer, Lauren Bresnahan, in the studio who reminds us ...

Episode 6: A Midnight Clear
July 01, 2019 08:00 - 1 hour - 80.9 MBThis week we're talking about the WWII drama, A Midnight Clear. We discuss its place in the canon of war films and how it compares to other Ethan Hawke movies we've watched so far. We also have a "spirited discussion" about whether or not the switch from film to digital is what defines post-90s film. Tune in for that heated debate!
Episode 5: Mystery Date
June 24, 2019 08:00 - 1 hour - 76.3 MBThis week, Jonathan has some serious allergies! But we powered through it (and tried to edit out the sniffles) so you can hear us talk about the 1991 film, Mystery Date! We also talk about the game Mystery Date - so fun!
Episode 4: White Fang
June 17, 2019 08:00 - 1 hour - 70.9 MBThis week, listen as we made no attempt to edit out the 5 minutes we talk about A Star Is Born, making it clear that it was actually 2018 when we recorded this.
