June 04, 2017 01:52 - 40 minutes - 37 MB

NIACW 199 License To Kill

May 07, 2017 04:34 - 1 hour - 63.5 MB

License to Kill is the worst Bond so far. There are plenty of little good things but overall it’s a mess. In a surprise twist, Drew is its biggest defender. Along the way the brothers discuss Michael Keaton’s Batman, Robert Davi, and Benicio Del Toro.

NIACW 198 Apocalypse Now

April 30, 2017 07:44 - 1 hour - 94.8 MB

Apocalypse Now is Eric’s favorite movie.

NIACW 197 Jaws

April 23, 2017 07:20 - 1 hour - 63.7 MB

NIACW 196 Driving Miss Daisy

April 16, 2017 06:21 - 1 hour - 63.5 MB

Driving Miss Daisy is a charming movie with very little action and not a lot of dialogue but plenty of tension and fantastic acting.  Morgan Freeman, Jessica Tandy, and Dan Ackroyd all do stellar work.  Brother J expresses his love for composer Hans Zimmer.   They also discuss Good Times; Passengers; Winter’s Bone; Rango; Better Call Saul, the Americans, and Rosie Perez’s masterworks: White Men Can’t Jump, Untamed Heart, Fearless, and Dancing With the Devil.   In housekeeping they di...

NIACW 193 Twilight (1998)

March 26, 2017 04:46 - 36 minutes - 33.4 MB

No sparkly vampires here, instead we get Paul Newman, Susan Sarandon, and Gene Hackman in a fun noir thriller. The supporting cast is also formidable: Stockard Channing, James Garner, Reese Witherspoon, Live Schreiber, Giancarlo Esposito, Margo Martindale, John Spencer, and M. Emmet Walsh. Note: This Eric and Drew only episode was recorded in December 2015 and inserted into the calendar this week due to minor illness. It’s also a bite sized ep but hey, sometimes that happens.

NIACW 192 North By Northwest

March 19, 2017 04:55 - 1 hour - 101 MB

North By Northwest is an enduring classic. It leads to a wide range of tangents including: Rich Little, director cameos, panic attacks and agoraphobia, and the evil that is the Dave Matthews Band.

NIACW 191 A View To A Kill

March 12, 2017 02:42 - 1 hour - 74.3 MB

Roger Moore’s last Bond.   Bro J’s fave, Drew thinks it lets Roger down, but Eric is neither shaken nor stirred.  They all love Roger Moore though. Discussed during Bond: the Cold War, Iman vs Grace Jones, Eric questions Drew’s knowledge (at his peril), bestiality, CPAP, Sesame Street pratfalls, the DAK catalog, equine brucellosis, Andrew Stevens, Code Red (TV show), and 2010’s Mongolian Death Worm.

NIACW 190 U-571

March 05, 2017 01:43 - 1 hour - 64.8 MB

The untimely death of Bill Paxton caused the Bros to tackle U-571, a light-weight WWII submarine movie. The film isn’t great but the resulting discussion was fun. Bill Paxton filmography starts at 28:30 Topics include: watching a movie in a theater by oneself, how a rousing score changes your movie, the historical accuracy of Jon Bon Jovi movies, 80’s New Wave music, the movie Hardware, the Academy Awards gaffe, new cars, daddy’s movie request, and the evils of Comcast References: ...

NIACW 189 Sicario

February 26, 2017 07:03 - 1 hour - 74 MB

Sicario gets a 5 star rating from Drew and Eric and a bit less from J, though all agree the score is fantastic.

NIACW 187 Network

February 12, 2017 07:54 - 1 hour - 80.1 MB

In the age of infotainment and President Trump, a film like Network might not seem so satirical but in 1976 it was the darkest of satires and a damning criticism of “modern” journalism.   It’s one of Brother E’s favorite films but Brother J thought it didn’t translate to a modern audience.   We have a fun discussion about media luminaries such as: Glenn Beck, Christine O’Donnell, Bill Maher, Dan Savage, Michael Savage, Alex Jones, Steve Bannon, President Trump, Keith Olbermann, Rache...

NIACW 186 Grosse Pointe Blank

February 04, 2017 23:04 - 1 hour - 59.6 MB

Grosse Pointe Blank is full of great actors quipping fun lines amidst solid action sequences set to late 80’s music. What’s not to love? Correction: Eric mentions that the director, George Armitage, also directed 1971’s “Private Duty Nurses,” which Eric described as a “Nudie Cutie” movie. Upon further review it is probably better described as a “Sexploitation” movie. In housekeeping we discuss Rogue One, The Accountant, House of 1000 Corpses, Dawn of the Dead, and Exorcist III. We also r...

NIACW 185 Octopussy

January 29, 2017 03:48 - 1 hour - 70.1 MB

Octopussy proves that one can forgive a lot of goofiness if the pacing is fast enough. It has clowns, twins, an all-girl ninja force, a Faberge egg, elephants, a tiger, a submarine that looks like a crocodile, a nuclear bomb, and a crazy Russian general but it’s still fairly grounded to reality.

NIACW 184 Soapdish

January 21, 2017 21:57 - 57 minutes - 53.1 MB

Soapdish has an all-star cast but, while Eric and J liked revisiting it, Drew thought it was weak sauce. Later we pour one out for Miguel Ferrer (RIP), brother J suggests how best to watch Twin Peaks, and Eric discusses some movies he watched this week: The Man Who Wasn’t There, Diabolique 1955 and Diabolique 1996, and The Russian Woodpecker.   References Soapdish trailer Theodore Rex trailer Madhouse trailer The Russian Woodpecker trailer   File length 57:48 File Size 53...

NIACW 183 The Big Lebowski

January 15, 2017 07:46 - 1 hour - 83.8 MB

Another Coen Brothers movie that Brothers E and J love but Drew dislikes intensely, the Big Lebowski is chock full of quotables. This episode has a fair amount of meandering so be prepared. We discuss, among other things, cutting the cable cord and Carrie Fisher’s virginity. Housekeeping starts at 1:15:00 The Big Lebowski “Fuck” count: 260 “fuck”s, 117 minutes of movie. 2.22 fucks per minute Compare to Wolf of Wall Street: 569 fucks in 180 minutes for a 3.16 fucks per minute whic...

NIACW 182 Maggie

December 31, 2016 22:22 - 35 minutes - 32.7 MB

Maggie, with Arnold Schwarzenegger and Abigail Breslin, is a good first effort for director Henry Hobson.  It’s not perfect but it’s certainly interesting.

NIACW 180 For Your Eyes Only

December 17, 2016 22:16 - 1 hour - 60.6 MB

For Your Eyes Only is a simpler Bond than Moonraker, one that Brother J and Drew did not like but Eric found refreshing.   The audio on this is a little wonky (but perfectly listenable) – Brother J’s new office is a bit echoey and for some reason Drew’s audio has an occasional “skip” in it.   Also Eric refers to Jack White as Jack Black and no one catches it.   References: Blondie - For Your Eyes Only Radiohead - Spectre MacPEGOT Moose The Movie Big Fan (2009) Topol ...

NIACW 179 Moonraker

December 11, 2016 04:09 - 1 hour - 58 MB

Moonraker is neither the best nor the worst Bond movie but it’s full of campy fun.   Life interfered and it’s an Eric and Brother J ep but there’s still some fun stuff – and bonus: Storm Large talk.   References: Highest Grossing Bond movies - The Numbers.com 1970 Chuck Wagon Dog Food Commercial Storm large Joe's Pub NY" hopelessly devoted to you" 17 11 15   File length 1:03:02 File Size 58.0 MB   Subscribe to us on iTunes Listen to us on Stitcher Like us on Fac...

November 06, 2016 10:02 - 2 hours - 148 MB

(What’s the Story) Morning Glory is a great album by Oasis. Drift back to 1996 and relive the magic, the majesty, the wonder that is Oasis.   We also talk about Travis, Robbie Williams, Cornershop, BT, Blur, The Kinks, and a heaping helping of musical goodness.
