Episode 52: “King Kong ain’t got s--t on this episode!”

The boys debate the Top 5 roles performed by Denzel Washington and explore the possibility of AMERICAN GANGSTER being the spiritual sequel to 1995’s VIRTUOSITY.

George reveals why he always plays the villain on the podcast while lambasting Jim for not viewing every moment of film/video committed to capturing ‘The Denz’.  

The second topic explores the treacherous playground equipment of Jim & George’s past, and why that tall metal slide often reeked of boiled urine from a toddler.

BONUS: One of the hosts comes clean on their private teeter-totter ptsd guilt that stems from a failed mechanical engineering project in the Dominican Republic (class action lawsuit pending).

Episode 51: “It’s like the Eeyore of construction equipment.”

In this enhanced episode, our two heroes, Jim and George present the best commercials of the 2000s (the “Naughty  Noughties") making it clear that Jim can’t read a calendar when he asks ‘Wazzup?’

The two delve into the second topic only to reveal that a fascination with the classic claw prize game seems to influence one of the host’s entries in what is the best construction equipment of all time.

Episode 50: “This one is just kind of a free-for-all.”

An unprecedented move from the home office in the future results in the guys only submitting their lists for a single topic this week in THE MOVIES THAT TIME FORGOT.

Jim compares/contrasts the attributes of Days of Thunder vs. Days of Heaven, while  George confesses to his brief participation  as a television rating Nielsen Family member, and the alarming late-night calls from Arbitron.

Which host says that Cohen brothers should direct an episode of Three’s Company? Did Santa Claus work to block a 1970s Canadian film involving a cross-dressing Captain Von Trapp from the Sound of Music? And what ever became of  Bob Fosse’s murder musical? What is the best escalator death in cinematic history?

All of these burning questions and more are served up in the landmark 50th episode!

Episode 49: “A key point of that show was knocking over fruit stands with a car.” 

In this episode, Jim and George discuss their favorite TV theme songs and Best cars. Prepare to be astonished as Jim attempts to name all of the Herbie  movies in sequential order, while George relays Herbie’s trippy backstory of slipping through a trans-dimensional portal arriving in our world where it replaced an identical car after it was lost for some reason.

Both indulge in bad Sammy Davis Jr. impersonations in between reminiscing about their Hotwheels car collections as young boys.

Finally, they contemplate why a bright red, fish-talin,’ Gran Torino with a huge white stripe isn’t the ideal vehicle for stealthy police work.

Episode 48: “When you out-crazy Tim Burton on a movie franchise, that’s sayin’ a lot.”

In between Jim comparing every film made in the last 75 years to Citizen Kane, the boys discuss how an awful kid’s baseball movie united the world (if even in its utter disgust); they also debate which is worse, Super III or Superman IV: Quest for Peace.

George reveals the answer to a long-time Hollywood mystery: actor Michael Caine’s script-choosing strategy.

As the guys contemplate the second category: People named Don, Jim shares his life-long fantasy to hear his name announced on Saturday Night Live on the air.

In an unprecedented move, slowed down yodeling gets a double-dip.

And which movie sequel is so bad that Rotten Tomatoes awarded it an unheard of 0% rating?
