Pop Culture Graveyard

Hollis and Dave come down with a major case of Deja Vu as they revisit Groundhog Day (1993), the film where Bill Murray's character transforms from a hack weatherman into a Renaissance man in just one day... sort of!  

Hollis and Dave visit the sweetest town in the world for 2007's Lars and the Real Girl, in which Ryan Gosling spends time with a doll not named Barbie.

In this episode, Hollis and Dave bask in the feel-good summer sunshine of "Daniel Stern's Breaking Away" (as we will continue to call this movie for the rest of our days), a brilliant 1979 film that somehow hasn't aged a day--and will make you feel eternally 19-years-old.

Hollis and Dave brave the harsh, unforgiving world of The Revenant (2015), a film that features cracked skin, broken bones, hypothermia and bear attacks... and that's before things really go wrong!

Hollis and Dave blast off into the new year with the sci-fi "mini-masterpiece," Arrival (2016), a film where the aliens aren't the ones humankind need to worry about. 

Hollis and Dave turn the page on 2023 by paying tribute to the father of modern television, Norman Lear. Tune in for a classic-TV discussion of Norman's greatest hits: Good Times, All in the Family, Maude, The Jeffersons, One Day at a Time, Sanford and Son, and more!

Join Hollis and Dave and Harry and Marv, as they all try to survive the McCallisters (the worst family on the planet) during a deep dive into Home Alone (1990)--a cinematic love letter to individualism disguised as a celebration of the family unit. Get ready to listen for fifty-two minutes and change, ya filthy animals!

Hollis and Dave visit WordFest at an unnamed Pittsburgh liberal-arts university, and sing the praises of the film Wonder Boys (2000), based on the novel by Michael Chabon. Let PCG take you from the water's edge of inspiration to the far shore of accomplishment!

Hollis and Dave take a deep dive into the "arctic noir" classic, Fargo (1996), a film with kidnapping, murder, pregnancy and a heck of a sealant! This Trucoat stuff. It'll keep the salt off. 

Hollis and Dave take a trip back in time with The Nice Guys (2016), a flick set in the '70s, a time of muscle cars, leisure suits, and hired muscle wearing leisure suits.
