Yeah, here in this episode, your 47th favorite movie podcast hosts bring you their coverage of new releases from July 2025, as well as the Top 10 Lesser-Seen Movies of 1986 to celebrate the birthday of MPW fanboy, friend, and listener, Mack Robins! Happy birthday, Mack! During this show, you will get actual Top 10 lists of 1986 from Jason, Andy, Karl — and even Mackula! In fact, Andy actually creates an actual list and he even gets real about his movie-watching of late.
