In a first for the podcast John & Pat attempt to compare three things at once. The presence of a third option confuses them enough that they both lose the power of speech. Listen closely for when John uses the aural power of Mime to describe how Taylor Swift is better than Ryan Adams.

The Go-Betweens – 16 Lovers Lane

Michael returns to try to convince John & Pat that Zardoz and Showgirls aren’t just utter garbage made by garbage people. Does he succeed? You’ll have to listen to find out. Hint: he doesn’t.

Zardoz

Vivian once again joins the guys to discuss the new fall TV shows. And just like every other year, the networks have outdone themselves with non-derivative works of unimaginable genius.

Adam Fangman from the Ponering Zoo podcast joins the guys to talk about two movies made by professionals and starring actors. If you listen closely, you might even learn who the key grips were!

Young Adult

John & Pat compare the two greatest years in the history of the universe, but only one can survive. Be prepared to lose all your memories of the year that loses! Let’s hope it’s the one with the most Trump in it.

What no one has been clamoring for: It’s Pat vs. John for the soul of America! They don’t even bother talking to each other this episode, instead preferring to go on separate rambling monologues about the new Late show. At least, I assume that’s what they do – I didn’t listen to this one.

John & Pat look at two beloved ’80s teen comedies and finally come to understand the old saying “You can’t go home again.” Strangely, they also come to understand the meaning of “A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush.”

Sixteen Candles

John & Pat take a look at the not-too-crowded subgenre of science fiction comedy. Intentional comedy, we mean, not like those Star Wars prequel debacles (that Pat loves like the asylum patient he is [or should be]).

Red Dwarf

John & Pat look at two of their less manly cinematic equivalents in a couple movies that are much closer to being one movie than they should be. And that movie is Problem Child 2.

Point Blank

John & Pat do their bi-annual episode where they pick their favorite songs of the year so far. Stay tuned until the end to see if Christopher Cross makes the list!”
