Dissecting The 80s

#164 Xanadu


Listen Later

It's the final episode of season 6, and we're tackling one of the big ones of the "bad movie canon" - Xanadu!


Do we both kind of like this movie? Tripp fires up the Goot Signal, Gene Kelly charms us, there's just, like, an absurd amount of roller skating, several script edits make no sense, they spent a lot of time painting old advertisements, booking MSG for a live podcast and bizarre casting choices.

All this and more!
