December 27, 2020 02:38 - 1 hour - 49.1 MBMerry New Year! This week, it's Daniel's first time to see 1983's "Trading Places," starring Eddie Murphy, Dan Aykroyd, and a deep bench of 1980s heavy hitters. We talk about why this was supposed to star Richard Pryor, the crimes John Landis committed just before filming, and why we still don't understand commodities trading. Grab your beef jerky and listen now!
"You're So Sly, but So Am I"
December 14, 2020 05:00 - 1 hour - 46.3 MBThis week, it's Tracy's first time to see 1986's "Manhunter," starring William Petersen, Brian Cox, and a synthesizer.

Write your secret message on toilet paper and listen now!
"I Love You More Than My Luggage"
November 30, 2020 14:51 - 58 minutes - 45.6 MBWe're back from hiatus with a pop culture classic, as this week it's Daniel's first time to see 1989's "Steel Magnolias." We talk about the glory of Dolly Parton, the history of erotic barn dancing, and why the term "chick flick" is stupid and inaccurate. Get Shelby her juice and listen now!
"You Can Always Depend on the Old Spy-Fucker"
July 13, 2020 04:00 - 1 hour - 57.2 MBThis week, it's Tracy's first time to see 1975's "Three Days of the Condor," a fantastic spy thriller starring Robert Redford's chest hair. We talk about unsexy sex scenes, what makes for a good espionage story, and why Sydney Pollack was the best. Turn on your '70s computer and try to listen now! (Seriously, does it have to be so loud?)
"The Only Thing That Matters Is What They Feel"
June 22, 2020 04:00 - 1 hour - 55.8 MBThis week, it's Daniel's first time to see 1967's "Guess Who's Coming to Dinner," a landmark movie of the Civil Rights era that, distressingly, still has plenty of relevance today. We talk about what's aged well vs. what hasn't, why progressive movies are always behind the times, and why we're starting an all-new show called the Sidney Poitcast. Pour the monsignor a scotch and listen now!
"It's Not Strictly Legal"
June 08, 2020 04:00 - 57 minutes - 45.6 MBThis week, it's Tracy's first time to see 1985's "Blood Simple," the first movie by the Coen brothers. It's a tense thriller set in small-town Texas that still holds up 35 years later. We talk about why Frances McDormand is a national treasure, how to pronounce "Dan Hedaya," and how Bruce Campbell is secretly the reason this movie got made. Book a flight to Uruguay and listen now!
"You're Not Splotchy."
May 25, 2020 04:00 - 1 hour - 69.9 MBThis week, it's Daniel's first time to see 2000's "Center Stage," a movie about hot young ballet dancers that is a holy talisman for many women of a certain generation. We talk about how the filmmakers used real dancers to make everything authentic, how Zoe Saldana got her first break with this movie, and yes, the glory that is Cooper Nielson. Dance the sh*t out of it and listen now!
"I Don't Wear the Dress"
May 18, 2020 04:00 - 1 hour - 47.8 MBThis week, it's Tracy's first time to see 2012's "Haywire," a great action movie starring Gina Carano as a badass field operative and an A-list roster of dudes as the bad guys dumb enough to get in her way. We talk about what makes the action so great, why director Steven Soderbergh didn't want to do the movie without Carano, and, of course, why Michael Fassbender is so hot. Get the hell out of Barcelona and listen now!
"Valley Girl: It's a Real Movie"
May 11, 2020 04:00 - 1 hour - 64.3 MBThis week, it's Daniel's first time to see 1983's "Valley Girl," which is a totally tubular movie unless you're like *such* a total pukoid. We talk killer 1980s soundtracks, why Nicolas Cage is so hairy, and how what started as an exploitation movie for dirty old men was rewritten in production to become a teen dramedy classic by pioneering director Martha Coolidge. Book a room at the Valley Sheraton and listen now!
"I Don't Like It, I Don't Agree With It, But I Accept It"
May 04, 2020 04:00 - 1 hour - 55.7 MBHappy May the 4th! This week, it's Tracy's first time to see 2018's "Solo: A Star Wars Story." It is not a good movie, and it actually was a little worse than Daniel remembered. (He is very sorry.) We talk about why it was impossible for anyone to step into Harrison Ford's shoes, why nobody should try to copy John Williams, and why we still love "Star Wars" even after all these weird failure movies. Say happy birthday to Acorn Eldorf and listen now!
It's a QUENTIN QUARANTINO!
April 13, 2020 23:32 - 1 hour - 75.8 MBThis week, it's time for QUENTIN QUARANTINO: Tracy's brother Price joins us from quarantine to talk about "Once Upon a Time in Hollywood," which he had seen but was new to both Tracy and Daniel. We talk about the power pairing of Brad and Leo, why Margot Robbie is so great as Sharon Tate, and we rank our Tarantino favorites in a battle for the ages. Strap on your flamethrower and listen now!
"I Could Never Love a Baywatch Fan"
April 06, 2020 04:00 - 1 hour - 58.7 MBThis week, it's Daniel's first time to see 1998's "Sliding Doors," a charming romantic-dramedy that coined its own pop-culture term. We talk about how Gwyneth Paltrow is both a good actress and also probably insane, why they don't make soundtracks like they used to, and just what happened to all the cat buttholes in "Cats." (Really.) Cue up Monty Python and listen now!
"Why Are You All Wet, Baby?"
March 23, 2020 04:00 - 1 hour - 63.4 MBThis week, it's Tracy's first time to see 2010's "Shutter Island," and her brother, Price, returns as our guest to talk about this fantastic (and often overlooked) Martin Scorsese movie. We talk about why this movie gets even better with repeat viewings, the amazing run Scorsese has had with Leonardo DiCaprio, and why "Zodiac" qualifies as a comfort-food movie. Watch out for Nazis and listen now!
"Suddenly I'm Miss Farrah Fawcett From TV"
March 16, 2020 04:00 - 1 hour - 68.6 MBThis week in our THIRTIETH episode (hooray!), it's Daniel's first time to see 2001's "Hedwig and the Angry Inch," a fantastic rock musical that is basically guaranteed to have you humming the songs as soon as the credits roll. We talk about why musicals are such an important genre, why writer-director John Cameron Mitchell is probably a genius, why Michael Pitt is so creepy, and, for some reason, Tab. Take that bra out of the dryer and listen now!
"The Lindas Want You to Open This Door"
March 09, 2020 04:00 - 1 hour - 51 MBThis week, it's Tracy's first time to see 2010's "The Town," a starring Ben Affleck, Jeremy Renner, and Boston accents. It's a heist drama about a group of bank robbers who are being pursued by the FBI while Affleck dates the woman they took hostage. (It's as difficult as you'd think.) We talk about what derailed Ben Affleck's career, how Blake Lively can actually act, and Diane Lane's beach house. Get in the van and listen now!
"The Army Couldn't Afford Drapes?"
February 25, 2020 00:32 - 1 hour - 56.5 MBThis week, it's Daniel's first time to see 1980's "Private Benjamin," which is celebrating its 40th anniversary. It's a great classic comedy starring Goldie Hawn, Eileen Brennan, and Armand Assante's hairy thighs. We talk about why Goldie is a powerhouse who changed movies, why Harry Dean Stanton always looked so old, and why Tracy shouldn't be allowed to bomb stuff. Drop and give me 20 and listen now!
"If There Was Ever a Hell on Earth, It's Dallas County"
February 17, 2020 05:00 - 1 hour - 68.4 MBThis week, it's Tracy's first time to see 1988's "The Thin Blue Line," a true-crime documentary so powerful that it changed the course of several people's lives and popularized a certain type of storytelling. We talk about crooked cops, murder mysteries, and why no one should ever go to Vidor, Texas. Chuck your milkshake and listen now!
"Take a Valium, Like a Normal Person!"
February 03, 2020 05:00 - 59 minutes - 48 MBThis week, it's Daniel's first time to see "Desperately Seeking Susan," a breezy comedy from 1985 starring Madonna, Rosanna Arquette, and almost everyone else you know.

Put on your Jimi Hendrix jacket and listen now!
"I'm Not a Man, I'm a God."
January 20, 2020 05:00 - 1 hour - 69.6 MBThis week, it's Tracy's first time to see 2015's "Ex Machina," starring an often shirtless Oscar Isaac, Domnhall Gleeson, and Alicia Vikander. It's a sci-fi story about artificial intelligence, plus it won the Academy Award for its visual effects (which are amazing). We discuss the mümee, talk about whether robots have feelings, and announce that our next pet will be named Yennefer. Overload the security system and listen now!
"Drugs to the Right, Hookers to the Left!"
January 13, 2020 05:00 - 1 hour - 59.3 MBThis week, it's Daniel's first time to see 1984's "Bachelor Party," starring Tom Hanks, Tawny Kitaen, and a staggering amount of nudity even for the 1980s. The movie's whole plot is in its title, but it's got a ton of charm and plenty of jokes that still hold up. We talk about whether bachelor parties like this actually happen (let us know if you've been to one), the unstoppable force that is Adrian Zmed, and this movie's surprising connection with "Fast Times at Ridgemont High." Do the alli...
"We're Still Working From the Rear"
December 23, 2019 06:40 - 1 hour - 133 MBHappy holidays! This week, we're going seasonal with 1942's "Holiday Inn," which Tracy had never seen before. This was the movie that gave the world "White Christmas," which no one expected to be a hit (honestly) but which has gone on to enjoy just a little success. We talk about the genius of Fred Astaire, why Bing Crosby was an asshole, and whether this movie's actually good or just historically interesting. Throw some firecrackers on stage and listen now!
S2 E5 "I Wish YOU Would Stop."
December 16, 2019 05:00 - 1 hour - 142 MBThis week, it's Daniel's first time to see 1995's "Sense and Sensibility," a movie that destroyed any preconceived notions he may have had about Jane Austen and was, in fact, hilarious and exciting and moving and just a great time. If you are a dude who is wary of Jane Austen (or who just doesn't know anything about her), this is a safe space for you. Plus, Tracy goes on two separate rants and does a surprisingly convincing Alan Rickman impression. Grab your old-timey atlas and listen now!

We talk the eternal allure of Paul Newman, why we can't stop watching Tom Cruise movies even though he's certifiably insane, and whether it's even possible to make pool look interesting on film. (The jury is split.) Grab your Balabushka and listen now!

[Ed. note: This is ... not accurate.] Tracy challenges everyone to a fight multiple times, Daniel gets a character name wrong so often you'd think he had a brain injury, and we dive deep into the Roman Polanski issue and try to figure out what it means to love the art but hate the artist.
