Parental Guidance Neglected

Jackson’s co-hosts from his music podcast (Good Enough), Luke and Jake are visiting the “REAL” coast and drop into the PGN world to talk about Brad Pitt’s Bullet Train, the 90’s classic Friday with Ice Cube and Chris Tucker, and then go head to head in a Movie Music Trivia Contest that proves just how little they know about movies.  Hint:  "Do either of them know what film the song Purple Rain was written for?”  Yep, it’s that kinda show.

The boys split duties as Regan checks out the new B.J. Novak movie "Vengeance", while Jackson reports in on the volcano love story, "Fire of Love". Luckily they both got to take in this month’s Torture flick, "The Gingerdead Man" starring Gary Busey recommended by a family member who must REALLY hate us! Plus Severance love is flowing, plenty of trailer talk, and Regan pleads for Jackson not to throw in the towel on Barry.

Despite Regan’s continuing sinus issues and Jackson’s sore muscles, the boys break down Jordan Peele’s TWO stories in Nope, Chris Evans playing a psychopath in Netflix’s The Gray Man, Elia Kazan’s A Face in the Crowd (or at least the first half) and what exactly makes a great director.

Is Thor: Love and Thunder a bonafide hit? Will a tiny little shell named Marcel makes them cry. What happened to Forrest Whitaker? Is Jackson too into “art films”? Is Regan a film snob? And shit will hit the fan (literally) when something called Mad God enters the boy’s worlds. Strap in!

In this episode, Regan and Jackson discuss the disaster that is the newest Minion's premiere (don't worry we didn't actually watch it), as well as talk about the new straight to streaming film "Cha Cha Real Smooth". They also dive into the best picture nominated classic "Network" to finally decide if it stands the test of time. Oh, and something about juice boxes?

After a week off due to laryngitis and travel, the boys are back and it’s a jam-packed episode!. Reviews of Baz Luhrmann’s "Elvis", "The Black Phone," Netflix’s "Spiderhead" and Pixar’s "Lightyear." We also try to uncover Jackson’s obsession with David Lynch, set up the Ultimate Capri Sun vs Juice Box Challenge and get interrupted by many used car salesmen. Parental guidance is neglected.

In this episode, Jackson deals with his first “Karen” at his new job.  The boys also breakdown how much they hate the new trailer for Black Adam and visit an Oscar winning film from Germany.  And they both agree that Jeff Goldblum and the O.G. gang are a welcome addition to the new Jurassic World installment, but is it enough to save the franchise?  Oh, and it’s back….TRIVIA!!

It took eleven episodes but finally a movie has divided a house! Will it be the new thriller, "Watcher?" The David Cronenberg dystopian performance piece, "Crimes of the Future?" Or Jackson’s pick, the French drug trip, "Enter the Void?" We also discuss how we are looking forward to Chris Pratt’s arm work in the upcoming Jurassic World flick, how to deal with hiking blisters, and somebody is employed!!!

Jackson and Regan (aka Top Gun call signs - Slinky and Powerboy) break down Maverick and its lack of homoerotic imagery. They also discuss the creepy new thriller, "Men", as well as the classic "The Panic In Needle Park" starring some up and comer named Pacino. Regan asks Jackson to be his wingman, but he’s more of a thigh guy.

While Jackson is in lockdown with “The Roni”, we still find a way to talk about Firestarter, Dr. Strange, the new Avatar trailer, and this week’s audience recommended trainwreck, 1990’s Prayer of the Rollerboys.  Can you get Corona Virus through a podcast??
