173 - This one has been a long time coming, especially for our Aussie friends of the show. Now the bad news is that this doest seem to be streamable or rentable anywhere in the US currently, but I will say that this episode is safe from spoilers if you haven't seen the movie (it's not a very plot driven film) - so come along as we unpack the Mark 'Chopper' Read, the metamorphosis of Eric Bana and question whether Carlos Santana was the DJ Khaled of the early 2000s.

172 - It's been a while since we hit a non-action movie, so we decided to even it out all the violence of the past 10 weeks, with the magic of song - and Travolta - AND OLIVIA NEWTON-JOHN!! What a sweetheart. Join us as we dive into his film, and a quick dip into the TV show Renegade (for a reason that will make sense we promise).

171 - We have reached an interesting turning point in our JCVD journey. This film would be the last theatrically released Van Damage joint until 2008's JCVD. So into the valley we go.... BUT despite this film not really being a JC highlight, we find some pretty interesting things to dive into, from the Soprano's, to the epic love story that is JC x Gladys, and even a semi-deep dive into heavy metal band GWAR! So, you know, there is something for everybody here.

168 - It's a double feature babyyyyy! Yes we missed last week's episode due to a technical issue, but we are back and are double stuffing your ears with double the Rambo. Based on some of the comments on our socials announcing these episodes, it appears these are pretty polarising films, so let us know if you agree with our take and continue the conversation with us over on our Friends of the Show Facebook page here.

Apologies - we had some technical issues and need to re-record our Last Blood episode, but why not take this opportunity to go back to where it all began for old Johnny Boy, with our First Blood episode from May Madness last year? Yeah. Do it. If you want.

167 - We are back with the latest episode in our 'Lat Pack: Past & Present' mini-series, and boy this is the big one. The prototype. The blueprint. It's RAMBO. We dive deep into the history of the character, and the franchise, but more importantly break down just where this fits in the evolution of the 'Lat Pack' action genre. Did this define a genre all its own? Or do we need to look at other 1985 heavy hitters, Commando and Rocky IV? Tune in and find out.

166 - We are back in the (relative) present-side of our "Lat Pack: Past & Present" miniseries, with he oft-overlooked weird and wonderful little number that is Universal Soldier: Day of Reckoning. We go deep in all the usual places as you would expect, and for the first time in Double Impact history, we have had to issue a spoiler warning. We realise a lot of people probably haven't seen this one, but you really should! So spoilers from around 40mins in.
