LoFiTop5

Whether it's seven college friends having a reunion, five dudes cruising around LA looking for a good party, four pals in search of a dead body, or three friends fighting a plethora of gangs in Mexico, when buddies hang out, good times typically ensue. This could also take the form of inanimate objects meeting a new inanimate object or eight kids teaching a ninth how to properly play baseball (and fend off killer dogs). Whatever the occasion may be, rest assured that JT, Jeremy, and their good buddies are always up to discuss the best… buddy… movies.

It's time for another Top 5 list with the Honorable JT's presiding. This week the boys appeal to your more serious side, walking through the Top 5 Movie Lawyers ever to grace a screen. You might think it's the usual suspects, but when a few good men sit down to discuss the law in film, it can be a runaway jury...but we'll let you be the judge.

While most film geeks like us know Citizen Kane was Orson Welles’ first feature film (though there’s a technicality and we talk about it), even we were surprised to discover some other absolutely amazing directorial debuts. In this episode, JT and Jeremy cover their top 5 favorite firsts, including some works by Rob Reiner, Sidney Lumet, John Huston, and even the legendary, the phenomenal, the master of Bayhem - Michael Bay. Also, enjoy a quickie game where Jeremy quizzes JT on some phenomenal *second* films by directors.

We hope you have a healthy appetite for the latest episode - Top 5 Foodie Movies! As much as we pictured making lists of top food-related movies would be like a fancy breakfast buffet, it ended up a little closer to the high school cafeteria as far as healthy options go. JT summoned a few millennial-oriented tasty treats, while Jeremy struggled to find any generation x-themed movie to chew on. But the guys have a good time, it’s a satisfying meal/listen, and we discovered that basically everyone loves Chef. Enjoy!

We’ll bet you can't hardly wait for this week’s episode, which is definitely not another teen movie podcast - or is it? There are fast times ahead as your not-so clueless hosts debate their Top 5 High School movies. These lists are so good they’ll make you want to scream for a piece of American pie. With or without a cause, you can rebel against our choices, even if you’d be better off dead than getting caught revisiting your high school years.

With the recent releases of Black Widow and Shang-Chi, your hosts decided it was time to have an episode about the Marvel Cinematic Universe. BUT, given there are two MORE MCU movies still yet to come in 2021, rather than a typical Top 5 ranking, we’re having a little fun. Instead of our traditional ranking, we’re making five different categories to dive into. Join us to discuss the Best Side-Character, the Best End-Credits Scene, the Best Duo, the Best non-Thanos Villain, and the Best Gag/Funniest Moment. Also this week we have a very special guest joining for the discussion!

This week JT and Jeremy really had to labor over the top 5 list - Top 5 Movies featuring babies. It wasn't an easy list to deliver, but they pushed through it. You might be surprised to see what 1980's movies don't make the list, and you certainly will be surprised what movies from the 2010's do. So while you're nursing your labor day Hangover from partying with your Neighbors, turn on the LoFi Top 5 and look who's talking about movies again! And Away we go!!!!

It’s clear that JT and Jeremy had the time of their life recording this week’s episode - Top 5 Original Songs from Movies, post-1985 edition. While all the stars clearly aligned for them to fight the power and do the right thing, it's a particularly good episode to lose yourself into. JT, repping the Millennial voice, went deep into 90s hip-hop and other tracks, whereas Jeremy was a man in motion exploring music from the 80s and beyond. It may seem like a thousand years since last week’s episode, but we can’t stop the feeling that this is one of the most fun episodes we’ve had.

When it comes to making lists, nobody does it better than JT and Jeremy - and this week’s list is Top 5 Original Songs from Movies (released before 1985). While our gen-x host had no issues going down a holiday road, our millennial friend was barely staying alive to find songs from an earlier era. But, given the boys are always looking on the bright side of life, this episode is worth a listen, And sometimes listening to a good podcast is the best that you can do.

Best fictional sports in a movie, sounds like a great category, amirite? Yeah, so, it isn’t, and the answer is BASEketball, and we’re going to move right along now and instead focus the episode on Top 5 Sports Comedies! This time around Jeremy’s “5 word clues” have a little rhyming convention to them, it’s sort of a shminderella shtory if you know what we mean. JT on the other hand utterly nails Jeremy’s picks *while* throwing a few curveballs in the mix. None of which would be considered “a bit outside”. So get your peanuts and cracker jacks, do a little face painting, and cheer away for the boys this week.
