40 Going On 14

Bad boys, bad boys, whatcha gonna do? Whatcha gonna do when we talk about you?

If it's not obvious, we're hanging out with Will Smith and Martin Lawrence this week, as we thoroughly dissect their action buddy cop franchise, #Bad Boys and #BadBoysForLife. Complete with Michael Bay explosions, helicopter tracking shots, slow motion circular establishing character shots and of course, guns! Lots of guns.

For this third week of Subtember, we're down one member of 'The History of Bad Ideas' podcast, but decided to move forward as a power trio with Mike, Pat and Joel.

If you like your comedy, action and popular music all combined into one giant birthday cake of mayhem, then this week's show is going to be your jam! Join us for the 'Bad Boys' show! Woosah!

I'm Bill S. Preston, Esquire. And I'm Ted "Theodore" Logan. Together, we are Wyld Stallyns!

If that doesn't trigger some nostalgia for you, then you need to hop into your timebooth and head back to 1989. I'll wait. Are you ready now to talk about Bill and Ted?

This week, we're joined by Jeff Nau from 'The History of Bad Ideas' podcast for the second installment of this year's Subtember. We're talking about the breathtaking Keanu Reeves and Alex Winter in the roles that launched their careers.

What else can I say? Be excellent to each other.

Smiles, everyone smiles! Welcome to...Fantasy Island!

With these words Mr. Roarke would invite guests to live their fantasies, but always to learn a lesson while it happens. Sometimes, though it would turn into a "hunted by a psycho killer" or "trapped in a prison forever" situation. We discovered that the 1977 Fantasy Island that we recalled had a sinister twinge to it that we didn't recall. Then there was that time Mr. Roarke fought the devil...yeah.

Join us as we delve into the #Fantasy Island of our youth and compare it to the 2021 remake that has just launched on #Hulu, and give some comparison on the two, along with part 2 of Evan's cooking voicemail, how many notches there are in Hervé Villechaize's bedpost, more #Cricket facts and the guest star for Sub-Tember!

Yes! Jason of the History of Bad Ideas Podcast joins us this week to let Pat have a break! You can find them on Twitter at @BadIdeasPodcast and on Facebook too!

I have the power! But do we really? This week, the four of us are taking a trip down memory lane, as we visit Eternia and #MastersOfTheUniverse

With the recent #Netflix @ThatKevinSmith continuation of the show, we felt it was our duty to saddle up Cringer and go and join #He-Man in his eternal struggle with Skeletor.

If you have unrealistic body dismorphia from this cartoon, then we'd like to talk to you about it. Strap on your loincloth and head down to Castle Grayskull. We're talking about those muscle bound bad boys and girls that started as a toy line and turned into big business. Oh yeah and there's Orko. #MOTU

We're going to accomplish something you'd never thought you'd see in your lifetime. Michael Jordan vs LeBron James in the battle of the century. You guessed it; we're talking 'Space Jam'!

The original film was a fun little oddity that captured the imagination of kids and adults alike. Will the brand new sequel recapture the same magic or will it be ejected from the game?

We're jammed packed with talent, as Bill Murray, Sarah Silverman, Wayne Knight, Don Cheadle and many more, will show you the razzle dazzle of the court. Lace up those Air Jordan's and let's jam! It's the 'Space Jam' episode you've been waiting for!

When you think of Danny DeVito, the first thing you think is, "He'd make a great shylock!". The second thing you think is, "What's a shylock?" To find out the answer to both of these questions, you need to check out our latest episode!

This week, we're getting down and dirty with Elmore Leonard's 'Get Shorty'. We all fell in love with the original John Travolta film, based on the book, but then it got the series treatment on Epix. Who knew that Ray Romano would be good in a crimedy? (crime comedy)

If you like large casts of amazing actors, working off of an amazing book, being both funny and dark at the same time, then the 'Get Shorty' episode of 40 Going On 14 is for you. PS Who doesn't love hearing Ray Bones say his classic line.... that I can't repeat here.

If we're experts at anything, it's food. Especially fried foods! That's what we're giving you to digest this week!

On this batter dipped episode, we're sitting down at the dinner table to talk about all things fresh, fried and crispy. From Oreos to alligator, we're going against doctors orders and raising our collective cholesterol just for you.

Get all your dipping sauces ready and forget the salad, '40 Going On 14' is dredging up some delicious dissertation on the delectable digestibles know as fried foods. All hail the angioplasty!

Dinosaurs! They're everywhere! They're even on this week’s episode of 40 Going On 14! That's right, we're taking a trip back to Jurassic Park to discuss the finer points of 'Jurassic Park 2: The Lost World' and 'Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom'.

We've got raptors and t-rex and compy's, oh my! Listen as we talk about the joy of Jeff Goldblum and those pesky kiddy clones. Not to mention hybrid hijinks!

On this week’s episode, we learn that Mark Wahlberg isn’t the only one who can talk to animals. This week, we learn that the animals can talk back, if you’re Dr. Dolittle! Not Eliza, but the other guy.

We’re ignoring some potential allergies and getting up close and personal with lions, tigers and bears, oh my. How will 1997’s Eddie Murphy version stack up against the 2020 Robert Downey Jr version? You’ll have to talk to your dog to find out or you can listen for yourself.

This episode, we’re letting the animals do the talking, as we dig deep into Hugh Lofting’s timeless story of a man and his gift and the occasional uncomfortable gross out humor. But hey, that’s what you came here for, right?
