Hello alien dogs and Sta-Puft Marshmallow Men and all the ships at sea. By now everyone knows we're retiring A Very Good Year after more than 100 episodes and coming back with an all new show for 2025. In the meantime we're revisiting some of our favorite guests and favorite movies by decade.

This week it's the 1980s, a stretch of time that is not commonly considered a golden age for Hollywood. We've got a lineup for this weeks episode that will dispute that take and they're coming with evidence in the form of some truly excellent cinema.

In this episode we'll hear from April Wright, Josh Lewis, Chris Nashawaty, Jen Cheney, Richard Shepard, Matt Singer, W. Axel Foley, Ty Burr, Carrie Couragen, Bilge Elbiri, Jen Johans, Daniela Taplin-Lundberg, John Pierson, and Jacob Knight.

Enjoy!
