Sylvester Stallone climbs into the cab, flips his hat backwards, and turns into a truck for the ultimate arm-wrestling father-son redemption tour in Over the Top (1987)! We’re hauling a full load of sweaty truck stops, Kenny Loggins montages, military school attitude, and real-life arm wrestling legends as we finally tackle the movie you’ve been begging us to cover.

Join James, Mel Vande, Danger Dave, and Brian as they break down Stallone’s poignant (and completely ridiculous) dramedy about deadbeat dads, Bowflex pull-downs in the cab, and one very determined grandpa. Expect plenty of “meet me halfway across the sky” sing-alongs, debates over whether the kid is a prick or just misunderstood, and way too much discussion about tuna salad and lot lizards.

Bad movies rule. This one might actually rule a little too hard.

Listen now and tell us: did Lincoln Hawk change your life, or are you still Team Grandpa?
