Live UP episodes
- Aladdin
Is this classic Disney road to marriage story still one jump ahead of the breadline? We weigh the memorable creep vibes from Jafar against the GOAT of sidekicks and one of the GOATs of Disney soundtracks.

1 hr 2 min - BONUS: Baseball Fan Trauma
While recording our "Major League" episode we revisited our earliest baseball memories and the crushing feeling of a playoff loss. Jess also cackles just a little bit at Amanda's Red Sox trauma (because it's funny).

10 min - Major League
Was Major League a series of "pitch perfect" sports montages, or about how acceptable it was to stalk your ex-girlfriend in the 1980s? We go juuuuust a bit outside the acceptable amount of baseball puns as we revisit this classic underdog team.

1 hr 7 min - The Lost Boys
In this mid-stakes vampire movie a hot guy and a couple of Coreys run amok while we all secretly root for Kiefer Sutherland. Amanda also tries really hard to convince Jess why THE LOST BOYS is appealing to the ladies. This is our second 'After Dark' selection where we take a look at the movies we absolutely should not have been watching as kids.

1 hr 16 min - An American Tail
Is this still the classic American immigration story or a cartoon in need of a better soundtrack? Unlike Fievel, we hit the high notes of this movie as well as the low.

1 hr 5 min - Teen Wolf
Our adult mindsets are tested as we weigh our nostalgia for low-stakes werewolving against the eye-roll inducing 80s high school tropes. Amanda also dusts off her referee whistle to call some fouls against the sport of basketball while Jess imagines what the characters would be doing these days.

1 hr 2 min - Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade
We put the most beloved movie archaeologist on a performance improvement plan. Did Indiana get more charming (maybe)? Or did Sean Connery do all our pearl clutching for us (also, maybe)?
Also, listen to our earlier review of Indiana Jones and the Raiders of the Lost Ark

1 hr 5 min - Groundhog Day
We revisit the OG of time loops and debate whether Bill Murray reaches peak Bill Murray humor. And if you genuinely like rhinestones, French poetry and ugly 90s vests this episode may offend you.

52 min - Die Hard
We Yippee-Ki-Yay through this classic manly man story and wonder if it's also a secret romantic comedy. We also ask whether our favorite type-cast villain actor is as cool as we remember.

1 hr 3 min - Clue
We discuss our favorite endings (Miss Peacock!) and whether some Tim Curry chaos is enough to put this movie into Live Up territory. Stay listening at the end for a bonus chat about childhood games we shouldn't be playing anymore because old.

About Live UP
From the publisher's feed
We are re-watching films from our childhood to see if they live up! Our childhood was in the 80s-90s, but movie release dates can be outside of that window. In each episode we focus on one movie and will score whether it still lives up to us now that we're adults, and whether it would live up for kids today. It's all very scientific and professional.*

It's actually neither...
