Folks, on this week's episode we go back—waaaaaaay back—to 1981 to help celebrate the 40th anniversary of the John Carpenter classic ESCAPE FROM NEW YORK starring Kurt Russell in the now-iconic role of Snake Plissken. Snake is the most nihilistic, misanthropic action hero in movie history, but he has to save the President from Manhattan—now a maximum-security prison—or his neck will explode. Cool! We discuss everything that made this movie so influential, ruminate on its supporting cast and wonder if GCW Champion Nick Gage could beat Slag in a deathmatch. Plus, we talk about porn parodies, wonder if the Presidential Escape Egg is real, Bryne defends New Jersey against an army of imaginary foes from flyover states, which leads James to reveal his desire to do DMT in the Pine Barrens and hopefully not run into any Czechoslovakian interior decorators while under the influence. Bada bing.
