Happy Thanksgiving to all! On this episode, we'll be discussing the 2003 film The Italian Job, a film of dubious connection to the Fast & Furious franchise but with plenty of F&F DNA to decode nonetheless. Depending on how you interpret a line of Deckard Shaw's in the film Hobbs and Shaw, this might be an actual bona fide entry in the Fast & Furious franchise, but you'll have to listen in order to hear our full breakdown and opinions on how this movie could or could not fit in with the rest of the FFuniverse. And make sure you stick around after the credits roll for some discussion about a currently relevant (in a first for us) and recently released movie as well. We hope you enjoy, and from our family to yours, we are so thankful to you for listening!

We're very excited to be back for another season, and we've got an exciting premiere episode for you all. We're finally tackling the one movie everyone has been waiting for-- The Fast and the Furious! That's right... the 1954 one. This season, we'll be discussing the roots and beginnings of the franchise from every angle, so it only made sense to start with the namesake. And we seriously did not expect there to be nearly as much connective tissue as there turned out to be. We've also got a B-side to this episode, where we discuss some bombshell news about the future of the franchise and the development of the next film, so there's a lot to dig into in this premiere. Welcome, one and all, to Season 3-- In Reverse: Start Line!

We're back! Once again, we return from our (unexpectedly) lengthy hiatus with a special episode just ahead of our upcoming third season. This time, we will be presenting for you a piece of lost media, the never-completed sequel to the 2003 film The Italian Job. Featuring new original music by brother of the show and previous guest David, and with an ensemble voice cast of whichever of Zach's friends were willing to be good sports, we've put together an audio drama sure to captivate and delight!

A huge thank you to our special guests, Zach's friends Max, Ike, Ariella, Miriam, and returning guest Jon!

And now, without further ado, In Reverse proudly presents the lost movie of the franchise... The Brazilian Job!

At long last, we've arrived at the final episode of this, our "2 Second 2 Season." This season we've discussed the many sequels and reinventions of the Fast and Furious film series, and in this finale we arrive at Turbo Charged, the short-film prelude to 2 Fast 2 Furious and the first piece of Fast & Furious canon to follow the original film. But that wasn't qute enough for a season finale, so we've got some additional exciting stuff for you all this time! We also discuss the music of the franchise and the music it inspired, do a bit of a dive into some of the car-focused ancillary content around these films, and finally bring it all to a close with some (unexpected) late-breaking news about the upcoming final film.

Well, here we are in Florida, with the penultimate episode of our 2 Second 2 Season, in which we discuss the first ever Fast & Furious sequel, 2 Fast 2 Furious. And as you'll hear on the episode, we recorded this on location in South Florida! This turned out to be a very Floridian episode about a very uniquely Floridian movie, so boy are we glad we took the opportunity. More like 2 Fast 2 Florida, amirite gamers? Anyway, this episode takes some twists and turns, so buckle up and get ready to Act a Fool!

This episode, we're discussing the 2009 short film "Los Bandoleros," which serves as a prelude to the film "Fast & Furious" discussed last episode. This is to-date Vin Diesel's one and only contribution to the Fast & Furious franchise as writer and director, so we really dive into what we can learn about his vision for Fast & Furious from this 20 minute short film. But it's not the only "short film" discussed this episode. If you watched Super Bowl LIX, or maybe if Mark Zuckerberg's algorithms recently decided you were part of the target demographic for expensive ice cream, you may have seen the other one we're talking about this week too. We hope you slow down and join us for a taste this episode!

This episode, we're discussing the 2009 film Fast & Furious, the fourth film in the franchise and the one which happens to share a name with the broader franchise. This movie is a legacy sequel, a return to form, a huge tonal shift, and a soft reboot of the whole damn franchise. There’s what to dig into here, so buckle up! It's mostly about drug trafficking and grief, but also Car Detectives. There's lots to unpack here, so come join us at Dommy Diesel's Driving Dojo for Dangerous Dudes!

As promised, we're back this episode to discuss the Vin Diesel vehicle (wink) and 2009 videogame, Wheelman, developed and published by Midway Games. You'll never believe this one, but in this videogame, you play as Vin Diesel's character as he drives cars really fast, does spy stuff, and engage in violence both vehicular and bodily as you endeavor to stop the deployment of a nation-ending superweapon. Hope you're excited to hear all about Wheelman, a game we actually played in order to bring you this episode. Join us as we journey into- the Midverse!
