KYD 100 - Ghostbusters
October 31, 2021 10:00 - 1 hour - 50.3 MBWell, long time no see, darlings! Apologies for our long hiatus but, ya know, s**t happens. Back just in time for Halloween, this month we are watching the 80s comedy/horror classic Ghostbusters! Dan is...lukewarm on this movie. So we're gonna hopefully change his mind!

KYD 099 - Space Jam
July 31, 2021 10:00 - 1 hour - 44.2 MBOn July 16th, 2021, Warner Bros. released the LONG anticipated sequel to their 1996 masterpiece, Space Jam. And for just a moment, the world stood still. Just kidding, it was released in theaters and on HBOMax and people seemed to be pretty "meh" about it. Your beloved hosts were part of this "meh" group. So they figured they would go back and watch the original and see what all of the fuss had been about back in the 90s and what could possibly prompt a sequel over 20 years later. Mich...

February 28, 2021 17:23 - 1 hour - 42.2 MB"So what would you little maniacs like to do first?"

High school losers, Gary (Anthony Michael Hall) and Wyatt (Ilan Mitchell-Smith) want nothing more than to be confident, popular and successful with girls. So when Wyatt's parents go out of town, the friends decide that the way to do that is to make their perfect woman. Using Wyatt's comput...
KYD 093 - Gattaca
January 31, 2021 11:00 - 1 hour - 46.7 MBHoo boy, darlings! Who would have thought the stylish 90s sci-fi film Gattaca could bring out such intense feelings in your hosts? Certainly not your hosts, that's for sure. Vincent (Ethan Hawke) dreams of becoming an astronaut and exploring Titan, one of Saturn's moons.

Because this month we are watching a special request from our new listener, Trey in Texas...the 1980s sports comedy Major League! When the owner of the failing Cleveland Indians decides to secretly tank the team's season on purpose for personal gains, she drafts some of the ...
KYD 090 - The Karate Kid Part II
October 26, 2020 10:00 - 1 hour - 44.4 MBWhile Dan is away, the girls will play! This month we are joined by previous podcast guest, Kate Holland (check her out on our Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade ep!). A little while back, Kate suggested watching Cobra Kai as perfect pandemic viewing. KYD's second episode had been a re-watch of the first Karate Kid, so it only made sense to invite Kate to watch and discuss The Karate Kid Part II before we join her in Cobra Kai's dojo! Mr. Miyagi's (Noriyuki "Pat" Morita) father has fall...
