  • 108 - Wendy & Lucy

    Continuing in the Northwesterly direction, the guys go to Oregon and spend some time with Wendy & Lucy.  A much smaller and more intimate film than the ones that At the Brewvies has covered before, Wendy & Lucy opens the door to dialogue about the American Dream, poverty, and privilege.

    It also stars a very good girl named Lucy.  What are your favorite movie dogs?  We want to hear from you!  Tweet at us or send us an email.

  • 106 - Glengarry Glen Ross

    At the Brewvies returns!  After many, many months, the guys return and cover the 1992 classic Glengarry Glen Ross.  It only took a pandemic.  While you’re social distancing and working from home, it’s a great time to put in the headphones and pretend you’re back at the office.

  • 105 - American Movie
    On this episode of At the Brewvies, the guys watch the classic documentary American Movie. In the most divisive episode yet, follow along as they discuss the joys and pitfalls of the filmmaking process.
    1 hr 33 min
  • 104 - Alien
    This episode we go back and tackle another classic - Ridley Scott's 1979 space horror Alien.  After a long trek through the sweltering heat of Manhattan, we wound up in Ben's kitchen to record this episode where we were joined briefly by Ben's roommate Purse.  Because we were out of the studio, things might sound a little different. We cooled off, though, with some UFO White Ale.  So find somewhere cool (not the Nostromo!), grab a can (and an eggroll), and enjoy.
    Trigger warning: In this episode we discuss rape. If that subject makes you uncomfortable, you might want to skip this episode or at least skip that section. We discuss it in the thematics section, which begins around the 01:30 mark.
