Save the Last Pod

It's summertime and that means it's time to relax, beach and catch a tan. It's certainly not time to be in class. You passed all of your classes, right? It's actually fine if you didn't because Mr. Schoop is teaching summer school this year. That's right, this week on Save the Last Pod, it's the definitive summer school movie, Summer School!

In this episode, Amy and Dan talk all things Mark Harmon and NCIS. They also debate who best embodies "beach" and whether or not it's appropriate to party with your teacher (*it's not). Pop that shirt off, cover your nose in Banana Boat sun screen and settle in as we talk about a 1987 classic featuring a guy named Chainsaw.

It's a long season and we're in the thick of it. Yes, these are the dog days of Summer, and nobody knows that better than the boys of the Cape Cod Baseball League – there's no pay, they live like foreign exchange students with host families and they use wooden bats like it's the 1800's. This week on Save the Last Pod, it's the definitive Cape Cod League teen movie – Summer Catch!

In this episode, Amy and Dan debate whether or not Maine is further East than Massachusetts, they reminisce fondly about summers on the Cape, and talk about potential new Summer Olympic sports. Slurp some oysters, wash em down with a Sam Summer Ale and settle in as we talk about a 2001 classic with peak Prinze and peak Biel.

This week on Save the Last Pod, we detour the teen movie-watching experience to the art of documentary filmmaking and discuss the newly released feature film from 1980's teen centerpiece, Andrew McCarthy. A documentary so historical, so thought-provoking it can only be about one thing - the founding teens of teen movies - Emilio! Rob! Judd! Tom! Molly! Ally! Demi! It's BRATS! The Brat Pack Documentary. Let's go!!

Amy and Dan delve into Hollywood's generations of teen and young heartthrob factions in this episode. They draw a fascinating line from the Brat Pack to the P-Posse, the Glee Teens, and the newly minted Rat Men. Plus! What they think was missing from the Brat Pack documentary and the ultimate question of them all - who is actually a member of the Brat Pack?

New Episodes Every Thursday - LET'S GO!

Step back to the summer of 1994, a time when your parents were keen on sending you to computer camp, but you had other plans. You decided to hire a con man, a former drama teacher, to pose as a camp counselor and create your own camp, where the only rule was to have fun. This week on Save the Last Pod, we're taking you back to that unforgettable summer, filled with firecrackers, car repairs, rooftop jumps, and even lima beans! It's the 30th Anniversary of the nostalgia-inducing, rebellious teen action-comedy, CAMP NOWHERE! Let's go!!

In this episode, Amy and Dan discuss the future hotties of teen idoldom Jonathan Jackson, Andrew Keegan, and Jessica Alba in their first-ever film credit and where they and the rest of this cast are now. Plus—CULTS! That's right. We debate the question: Is camp a cult? If Allison Mack is involved, it might just be. Space travel, getting grounded, doctors who wear crop-tops, and 5:15 fly-overs—anything can happen when you are nowhere, including having the greatest summer of your life.

Camp evokes positive memories for most of us – playing sports, swimming in a lake, maybe having your first kiss. But for some of us, camp was work. This week on Save the Last Pod, camp sucks, because we're talking about the 2003 Disney forced child labor film Holes!

In this episode, Amy and Dan discuss a Louis Sachar classic YA book turned movie. They also reminisce about Scholastic Book Fairs, Pizza Huts, and they debate exactly how many holes we all have. Pick up your shovel, fill up your canteen and bite into a raw onion – because why not? – while we take you back to the film debut of Shia LeBeouf.

For millennials, there is not much more of a triggering question than, "Team Edward or Team Jacob?" and it's the one we are asking ourselves this week on Save the Last Pod!

Round up all your Twi-Hard friends and family, we are flying up the trees of the Pacific Northwest to get into the Kristen Stewart, Edward Cullen Vampire Fantasy Romance that started a mega-franchise and was even featured on Burger King crowns everywhere. It's TWILIGHT! Let's go!

In this episode, Amy and Dan debate why the vegetarian, baseball-swinging, glow-in-the-sunlight vampires, the Cullen family, still go to High School after one hundred and eight years. They reminisce on what it was like getting asked to prom, and wonder - what is going on with Taylor Lautner's wig? Amy and Dan go down the rabbit hole of cinema's favorite seductive character, the vampire film, but don't worry there is enough to go around about this coded film about celibacy, desire, and human pheromones.

If you're a fan of Teen Movies, we'd love to hear from you! Leave us a 5-star review on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, GoodPods, or your preferred platform. Your feedback is invaluable to us. And let us know if you are TEAM EDWARD or TEAM JACOB! We can't wait to hear from you.

The clock is ticking and that means it is time for a NEW episode of Save the Last Pod!

This week, we're delving into a cult-classic that famously lost its backer, Mr. Steven Speilberg, once he saw the final cut. Brace yourself for the David vs. Goliath, anxiety-driven teen romp, "THREE O'CLOCK HIGH!" It's a journey you won't want to miss.

That's right prom kings and queens, it's our chance to say, "Meet me out by the bike racks, 3 PM!" In this episode, Amy and Dan discuss real memories of hall brawls, teen bullies, their very noticeable height differences as a married couple, and question the believability of a school store. And, hey, this movie stars Paul Feig, that guy with the 3D glasses from "Back to the Future" and Ferris Bueller's sister's friend. You know who they are and if you don't, come find out!

If you woke up tomorrow naked, next to a New York Ranger only to discover you somehow missed the last 17 years of your life, what would you do? This week on Save the Last Pod, we discuss the best case scenario in the kind of time travel/sort of body switching 2004 classic, 13 Going on 30!

In this episode, Amy & Dan talk turk on Ben and Jen – rather, Ben and Jens. They discuss the Thriller music video, physical media appreciation (again), class picture day and all things Ruffalo. It's the 20th anniversary of 13 Going on 30 so, if you haven't seen it since 2004, pop in the DVD then pop in your earbuds and let us take you back to the early aughts when flip phones ruled and magazine editors still lived in penthouse apartments.
