On today's episode of CAGE/OFF we have a double dose of war and friendship! We are discussing Racing with the Moon (1984) and Birdy (1984); in the former Nicolas Cage plays Sean Penn's horny best bud and in the latter he takes center stage, coping with the aftermath of the Vietnam War on himself and his bird-obsessed best friend. But which performance will be deserving of moving on in the bracket? Listen to find out! Also in this episode: the introduction of the Tank Top Tracker, an attempt at a new end-of-show segment, and lots of talk about Nic Cage's sweet bod.

This week on CAGE/OFF we talk Francis Ford Coppola's time travel dramedy Peggy Sue Got Married (1986) and then travel in time (get it?) ten years to discuss The Rock (1996), the sophomore film by director Michael Bay which officially kicked off the era of Nicolas Cage: Action Star. We discuss his roles in both films, the behind-the-scenes drama between Cage and "Peggy Sue" star Kathleen Turner, and Logan rambles on about The Rock for way too long. Also, Sean Connery impressions.

We're back! On this week's episode, we discuss the psychological thriller Dying of the Light (2014), a grim and boring film that has been publicly disowned by both writer/director Paul Schrader as well as Nicolas Cage himself. Then we set our sights on Snake Eyes (1998), the underrated(?) Brian De Palma conspiracy thriller! Also in this episode: Ashley doesn't trust Anton Yelchin (RIP), Logan has a subscription to the Criterion Channel, and Ashley teaches Logan about the Naked Brothers Band AND what it means to be jealous vs. envious.

This week we're kicking back with some drinks, checking our turnip prices, and discussing two big ol' stinkers!! That's right, on this episode of CAGE/OFF we're talking supernatural horror film Pay the Ghost (2015) and the dark comedy/crime thriller Dog Eat Dog (2016) in order to find out which film is a worthier showcase of our man's talents. Tune in to find out what it really means to "pay the ghost" and stay to hear Logan get increasingly inebriated and irritated with the two films. This may truly be our most explosive episode yet!

This week on CAGE/OFF we creep ever nearer to the end of the "Suck My Tongue" conference with a discussion of the romantic comedy Moonstruck (1987) and the dark action thriller Bangkok Dangerous (2008). Which version of Cage will win the day: the young, grungy opera fan of the former, or the cold, steely assassin of the latter? And will Cher and Nicolas Cage ever re-team for Son of Moonstruck, the hotly anticipated (by Logan) sequel film?? All of these questions (and more) will be answered!

You may be thinking: “Wait, are they really covering a film in which Nicolas Cage has less than 5 minutes of screen time?” The answer to that question is YES, because it is our podcast and we can do what we want! This week on CAGE/OFF we discuss the Oliver Stone political thriller/biopic Snowden (2016) and the sci-fi action thriller Next (2007) and decide which film is worthy of moving on to the next round of match-ups. Our decision will SHOCK you.....but probably not. Listen anyway!

In Episode 4 of CAGE/OFF we discuss the Disney adventure film National Treasure (2004) and the based-on-real-events satirical comedy film Army of One (2016). Will Nic steal our hearts in the same way he steals the Declaration of Independence, or will we be won over by his performance as the katana-wielding construction worker Gary Faulkner? You simply must listen to find out!

This week on CAGE/OFF we drink some delicious wine and discuss two pretty bad films: the low-budget crime caper Deadfall (1993) and the domestic thriller Inconceivable (2017)! We discuss Cage's transcendent performance as Eddie in the former, and drunkenly argue about the morality of the latter film's muddled message. It's inconceivable!!
