The Gorgeous Lads of Podcasting are changing it up from their regular program and bringing you a very Special Episode: The Favorites! In this first of a two-part series, Jon and David share their favorite Women to Watch on Film, celebrating some of their favorite actresses and the characters they brought to life on the silver screen!

If you like movies with women in them, this episode is for you!

BONUS SHOW! The Gorgeous Lads of Podcasting come in on the weekend to celebrate the greatest day in their calendar year: Kurt Russell's birthday! To celebrate, the Boys break down TANGO & CASH! Jon & David talk about one of the last major films of the 1980s, the near-iconic performances from Kurt, Sylvester Stallone, and the inimitable Jack Palance. And let's not forget Kurt's hair, that head-scratching dialogue, the insane action set pieces, and, best of all, hotshot cop bros being hotshot cop bros.

How about a picture-perfect high five and a Happy Birthday to Kurt Russell? It's TANGO & CASH!

Fat guy in a little cooaaatt! The Lads come together to talk TOMMY BOY, Chris Farley's first major film! They go deep on Farley's career, the early 90s-era of Saturday Night Live, and just what was making audiences laugh back then. The Boys then move into a celebration of Chris Farley, the person and entertainer. Plus, the boys discuss the bits that made them laugh then and now, the hits, misses and supporting cast of the movie, and many comedic gems they will never forget.

Shut up, Richard. It's TOMMY BOY!

What would you do if you were stuck in one place and every podcast was exactly the same, and nothing that you did mattered? You'd be listening to GROUNDHOG DAY! Jon and David celebrate Harold Ramis's holiday masterpiece, talking Danny Rubin's original script, Bill Murray's perfect comedic performance, and the philosophical underpinnings that seem to resonate with people from all different groups and belief systems.

Don't drive angry! It's GROUNDHOG DAY!

Like our manager said, there's no crying in podcasting! This week, the boys take a look at A LEAGUE OF THEIR OWN! We spend a lot of time talking about the late Penny Marshall and her career as an actor/director, and her masterpiece of this perfectly 90s comedy film. The lineup also includes Davis, Petty, O'Donnell, Madonna and Hanks! What would a modern take on the story of the AAGPBL look like? And could this be the greatest baseball film of all time?

Take us out to the ballgame! It's A LEAGUE OF THEIR OWN!
