Join Nick & Taylor as they take a very deep dive into one of their guiltiest pleasures: Bio-Dome (1996). Pauly Shore and Stephen Baldwin “star” as two idiotic slackers who get locked inside a closed ecological system. Your hosts dissect Shore’s relatively brief movie stardom, analyze the performances of Joey Lauren Adams and William Atherton, and get all nostalgic for the movie’s very 90s soundtrack.

Though it only ran for 6 episodes (and only 2 actually aired), Clerks: The Animated Series (2002) is much better than you would expect. It’s inventive, intelligent, and a whole lot of meta-fun. What other show has parodies of Temple of Doom AND The Bad News Bears in one episode? And where else will you find Gilbert Gottfried voicing Patrick Swayze? Or Judge Judge Reinhold holding court? This show will surprise you. Listen in and find out more!

Taylor & Nick bum a ride with Nate Johnson (Cedric the Entertainer) and his family (Vanessa L. Williams, Bow Wow, and Solange Knowles) as they head to Carruthersville, Missouri for their family reunion. Along the trip, the Johnson family encounters everything from a nutty hitchhiker (Shannon Elizabeth) and her pet alligator to the screen debut of Jason Momoa. Though it's a blatant rip-off of National Lampoon’s Vacation, your hosts recommend you sit back and enjoy Johnson Family Vacation (2004). Mama said “crack, crack!”

Few movies are as infamous as The Island of Dr. Moreau (1996). Known for its hellish production, bedeviled with arrogant movie stars (including Val Kilmer), production calamities, and the machinations of warlocks. The truly bizarre backstory is recounted in the excellent documentary Lost Soul: The Doomed Journey of Richard Stanley’s Island of Dr. Moreau (2014). Nick & Taylor obsess over both in the final installment of their Val Kilmer marathon.
