Sand the floor. Paint the fence. Get a bodybag and get ready for the All-Valley Karate Tournament, because today we're taking one of the best movies around and replacing the beloved characters with other stars from the 80s. We'll have to make tough decisions and commit to our choices. Win, lose, no matter. You make good fight, earn respect then nobody bother. I'm Mo Shapiro and joining me as always, the Daniel-san to my Mr. Miyagi, Max Sanders. And with that, let's recast The Karate Kid!

In Part 1 Buzzn The Tower started building its fantasy collectors museum. From Lloyd Dobler's boombox to Axel Foley's jacket our collection had a strong start. Today we pick up where we left off, we'll continue to fill our airplane hanger with 80s movie memorabilia that would make Spielberg himself jealous. But this time we have a little help... I'm Mo Shapiro and joining me for the first time, the Swedish Chef to my Hurdy Gurdy Gurdy, Graham Elliot. And with that let's build our collection!

Good advice, bad jokes and questionable fashion sense. The rad dads of the 80s had it all! Today we’ll celebrate Father’s Day by hand picking bits and pieces of our favorite 80s dads and Frankensteining the mother of all…. or father of all patriarchs.  I’m Mo Shapiro and joining me as always the Danny to my Jack Torrance, Max Sanders. And with that, let's get to work!

Vice Versa, The Parent Trap, 18 again, 17 again, Face/Off, The Hot Chick, The Shaggy Dog, The Change Up. There is no shortage of Body Swap movies in Hollywood. But what if instead of Judge Reinhold and Fred Savage playing musical chairs with their souls we tried something new... something bold. Stallone and Schwarzenegger dominated the movies of the 80s from muscles to one liners they were the definition of action. But what if we had to Freaky Friday 3 of their respective films, could it be done? Should it be done? I'm Mo Shapiro and joining me as always the Brigitte Nielsen to my Arnold/Sly love triangle. And with that, let's do a movie swap!

The heat is on, on the street, inside your head, on every beat. Few movies have captured lightening in a bottle like the 1984 classic Beverly Hills Cop. This is Eddie Murphy at his best, and today we're going to celebrate one of the finest movies the 80s had to offer. I'm Mo Shapiro, and joining me as always, the Detective Rosewood to my Sergeant Taggart, Max Sanders. And with that, let's ruin the buffet at the Harrow Club.

Last week on Buzzn The Tower we covered 11 through 6: Akira, Tron, They Live, The Last Starfighter, Escape from New York and Dune. This week we're going to get to the heart of our Sci-Fi romance with our top 5. I'm Mo Shapiro, and joining me as always, the Jonesy the Cat to my Ellen Ripley, Max Sanders. And with that, THAT'S IT MAN, GAME OVER MAN, GAME OVER!!! WHAT ARE WE GONNA DO?!

Science fiction... the final frontier. These are the favorite sci-fi movies of Buzzn The Tower. It's two part mission... to explore 80s movies, to seek out new facts to rank and debate...to boldly go where no podcast has gone before. I'm Mo Shapiro, joining me as always, the Spock to my Admiral Kirk, Max Sanders. And with that... KHHHHHHAAAAAAAAANNNNN!!!!!

Every year on the second Sunday of May we take time to honor and celebrate the wonderful women who brought us into this world. The very existence of humanity and, more importantly, the 80s, can be tracked back to some incredible moms. Buzzn The Tower itself would not be here today if not for the love, compassion and overwhelming patience of two wonderful matriarchs. So what way better to show our love to the special women in our lives than to highlight our favorite moms from our favorite 80s movies. Today we'll laugh, we'll cry, we'll cry some more and then we'll laugh, and in the end... we'll probably cry some more. I'm Mo Shapiro and joining me as always, the only person I know who loves his mom as much as I do, Max Sanders. And with that, Happy Mother's Day!

Canada's three greatest exports are beer, hockey and John Candy. This gift from the Great White North gave us dozens of performances that still warm our hearts to this day. Rather than focus on how we lost him too soon, today we'll rejoice in the gifts he left behind. John Candy owned the 80s, and in honor of that Buzzn The Tower will dedicate an episode to remembering his life, impact and performances. I'm Mo Shapiro and joining me as always, the Tom Tuttle from Tacoma to my Chet Riley, Max Sanders. And with that, take this quarter go downtown and have a rat gnaw that thing off your face!

In honor of the 2021 NFL Draft, Buzzn The Tower is putting together two fiercely competitive rosters of comedic geniuses. Directors, writers, and actors will be chosen throughout this ten round fantasy draft. The result? The best 80s comedy ever made. Strategy, player evaluation and a little luck will all be needed as we try to create a movie even Vince Lombardi would be proud of. I'm Mo Shapiro and joining me as always, the Mel Kiper Jr. to my Todd McShay, Max Sanders. And with that... Max you're on the clock.
