Summers Off

We had to do a scary one! Ty conned Rach into subjecting herself to the front stage and backstage horror that is Rosemary's Baby.

We get into the Rosemary curse on this film, Mia Farrow's personal horror in her love life, and Ty's scary obsession with John Cassavetes. The biggest reveal of all is that Rach actually enjoyed the scary movies Ty picked this year. So much so that she has promised to watch scary movies all year long. Send your submissions to her personally. The scarier the better.

We get hit with a case of the whackies for our Halloween special, Ernest Scared Stupid.

We chat about the Ernest origins, talk trolls, and debate what age this Disney movie is intended for. Ty struggles with the impressions, there is plenty of singing, and we discover if this movie melted Rach's Ernest hating heart. Tune in to find out!

That time has finally arrived! The season 7(!) finale of Summers Off. And what better way to say goodbye than by talking about some major nerdy stuff for a couple hours.

Rach can't carry the podcast, but she does carry Ty through this explosive finale with her amazing impressions of Gollum. We chat about the hippies who saved this franchise. What is Gollum juice? And how many times did Viggo get his ass kicked? And yes, Ty goes on a Ty-rade about Rings of Power.

It is explosive, it is heartwrenching, it is Summers Off's season finale. We can't wait to see you on our next adventure!

Come one come all! Okay maybe not ALL. This week's episode of Summers Off may prove to be one of the most risqué films we've done yet. We're talking about Paul Verhoeven's 1995 erotic drama, Showgirls (Rach's choice!). Loathed for its lewdness and beloved for its camp, Showgirls is a wild ride. You honestly just have to see it to believe it.

It's cookie time! It's cookie time! It's time for Troop Beverly Hills! Fresh off of their trip from LA, Ty and Rach share all the Do's and Don'ts for SoCal. Do go shopping on Rodeo Drive. Don't forget to check the weather before camping. Do get bottle service at a nightclub. Don't get stuck in traffic. Do check out this episode. Don't forget to rate and review!

I don't want one listen, I want all the listens! Bzzz! What's wrong with you?! We have some Chris Tucker magic this week with our episode on Fifth Element.

We get into the love stories taking place in front of the camera and behind, why Gary Oldman is ashamed of this one, and the soft jazz parties of Bruce Willis. And, we broach the question you've wanted answered for years. Is that Milla Jovovich's real hair? All this and more this week on Summers Off!

This may be our most niche watch yet. In order to prove it wasn't a fever dream, Rach shows Ty a Don Bluth classic from her youth, Rock-A-Doodle. Is it the parallel Elvis story or the earworm hits that make this so memorable? Is this tied to an ancient, medieval tale? Where did Rach's childhood fear of owls originate from? And what is that cat saying??! All of this and more will be answered in this week's rockin adventure. 

It's time for the magical adventures of a bunch of 80s kids and their recreational drugs. We depart this world for that of Fantastica with The NeverEnding Story. Yes, that is the capitalization...

This episode has it all. Rach mistaking the identities of our two boy leads and spending half the episode thinking they are the same person. We hear dog-dragon Falkor impressions. Rach does her best voiceover character work. And we cry, hard, for Artax.

This week Ty and Rach delve into the female psyche with Rach's pick Girl, Interrupted. Were you even a 90s actress if you weren't in this movie? Is anyone in this film certifiably crazy? If Angelina Jolie is a volcano and Winona Ryder is an orchid, then what does that make Whoopi? And who doesn't love rotisserie chicken? As always, nothing but the hard hitting questions will be asked in this episode. 

There's a time to live and there's A Time to Kill! We take the ultimate summer party out of the backyard and into the sweaty courtroom with Matty McConaughey's big break.

We give you the skinny on all those Grisham MURDER books you love so much, the real life inspirations for this tale, and the 14 month search for a lead. Rach also tries to convince listeners she knows more about law than Grisham and offers some terrific legal advice.
