Bill and Tony had so much fun at the movies with “A Complete Unknown”, but are happy to be back with the first album review show of the season.  The Bob Dylan trend continues with a move from the big screen to the record store for a deep dive into Dylan’s classic, “Highway 61 Revisited”.  There is plenty of room in the back of the “Buick 6”, and Bill and Tony have no “secrets to conceal”.   Don’t worry - that’s an Acme slide whistle you hear behind you - not a police siren.  Why not join Bill and Tony as they seek to discover: “How does it feel?”.  We invite you on another excellent music adventure with Bill and Tony!

Peso Plumo - ÉXODO

Aight, picture this: it's Christmas Eve, the fruitcake's gone stale, and the carols are on repeat for the 5,000th time. You're trapped in a family movie marathon with Aunt Mildred's questionable fashion choices burning into your retinas. Sound familiar? Well, fear not, weary travelers, because Bill & Tony's Excellent Adventure is here to rescue you with a holiday special like no other: This year we take a "Celluloid Sleigh Ride and pick our Our Favorite Holiday Flicks.

This is your chance to eavesdrop on two pop culture fiends as they dissect holiday cinema like elves on sugar. So grab your spiked eggnog (or hot cocoa, if you're feeling virtuous) and settle in for a holiday movie chat that's as warm as a crackling fire and as sharp as a snowman's carrot nose. Just remember, if Aunt Mildred asks what you're watching, tell her it's a heartwarming tale about the power of friendship... and questionable fashion choices. Happy holidays, you magnificent misfits!!!!!

Indiana Jones and The Dial of Destiny premiered on Disney+ on December 1st and judging by the disappointing box office numbers, a lot of folks didn’t go see this in the theater this summer.  Bill and Tony think there is much to commend the movie to you.  While it is not a perfect film, any movie with Harrison Ford, Phoebe Waller-Bridge, and Mads Mikkelsen in it is at least worth watching from home.  Like Indy, Bill and Tony are back in the saddle for another Excellent Adventure in Movies.
