ID4 Minutes at a Time

Actor Jordan T. Maxwell tries to turn this podcast into a Falcon and Winter Soldier podcast! Tyler also educates us about “The Long Dark Tea Time of the Soul” moment in screenwriting, using “Dude, Where’s My Car?” as a teaching example.

This week, James and Mary Murray join us for what Tyler describes as the best kiss of 1997 (according to the MTV Movie Awards). We also talk about how trigger happy James Rebhorn’s character is and how happy James and Mary are to see Houston get nuked. We also talk about Jeff Goldblum’s career as…an apartment finder?

This week, host Lulu Nagel guides us through Minutes 48-52 of a Jason Bateman classic. What else would you expect?

Actress/musician/registered nurse Megan Flynn sings the long established “Lulu’s Predictions” theme song. We also find out that the actress that plays Constance was in As the World Turns. Lulu also predicts that Adam Baldwin is a secret alien agent. Tyler also tells his Princess Diana story, and the ID4 Crew fanciest potential replacements for *gasp* Jeff Goldblum?!

This week! We introduce a new Color Hat ranking system for ID4 familiarity. We talk about external threats and the end of the Cold War in the 90s. Guest Stephanie Chiarello also asks how close the alien popping open is to childbirth. We also talk far too much about the ID4 sequel that is a movie that exists.Also, Stephanie throws down the gauntlet: she doesn’t think Goldblum. Is sexy. And that ID4 is NOT a feminist masterpiece.

Lulu reveals that she has a fear of elevators. Also, guest Tina Jackson talks about her sucky pandemic, we talk about urban legends involving SPIDERS, and Tina makes a point on the extreme feminism of ID4. We also debate the Bill Pullman Presidency and if President Thomas Whitmore is a Republican or a Democrat.

Lulu nails the predictions this week. We also talk about Pootie Trois, pickled aliens, circle doors, and Christmas parties at the Pentagon. Also, guest Jennifer Bateman remembers even less about ID4 than Lulu, so we ask her to predict what’s happened in the movie so far.

We’re finally at Area 51! This week, we talk about what’s on the other 23 floors of Area 51, what non-RV based movies Randy Quaid has been in, and Kenny notices an oddly placed eye washing station. Also, we finally talk about if alien life actually exists. And, finally, our incredible guest, author/comedian Les McGehee, tells a story worthy of a raconteur.

We’re actually with a real raconteur this week! We talk about phallic symbols, Judd Hirsch’s “subtle” acting, Goldblum returns, and we FINALLY have a guest that HATES THIS MOVIE.

We talk about Goldblum and his vibes, fathers and masculinity in this movie, and at what time this movie passes the Bechdel Test. Also, flimsy galactic exoskeletons.
