TEAM INSOMNIAC'S TRIPTYCH

The boys welcome friend and fellow filmmaker Joshua Floyd to discuss Jordan Peele's filmography. One of the most exciting new auteurs to come onto the scene in the 21st century. The boys talk monkeys, doppelgangers, and MAD TV. What do they call a GOOD miracle?

Get Out (2017)

Us (2019)

Nope (2022)

It's time to dial it back to the swinging 60s for some gritty westerns, Italian style. The boys discuss the trilogy that helped secure Clint Eastwood's status as a cinematic legend, while simultaneously catapulting Sergio Leone and Spaghetti Westerns into the spotlight.

A Fistful of Dollars (1964)

For a Few Dollars More (1965)

The Good, the Bad and the Ugly (1966)

The boys hop into their hot tub and pop the champagne to celebrate 2022 at the movies.  What were some of your favorites?

Merry Christmas! The boys open their presents early and tear into the Disney Star Wars sequels, some of the most divisive movies of the 21st century. What's really amazing is that nobody, ever, has done a podcast about Star Wars.

MOVIES DISCUSSED:

THE FORCE AWAKENS (2015)

THE LAST JEDI (2017)

THE RISE OF SKYWALKER (2019)

Suit up for 3 awesome movies from director Gareth Evans featuring the bone breaking ballet that is Silat. From the shockingly mature elegance of Mertantau to the bonkers maximalism of The Raid movies, Evans and his muse, Iko Uwais, present us with some of the most brutal and innovative fight choreography ever put on film.

MERANTAU (2009)

THE RAID: REDEMPTION (2011)

THE RAID 2 (2014)

The boys invite poet/performer Paul Lunaire to the Triptych Mansion for some spooky Halloween delights!  Today it's the Carpenter Apocalypse trilogy! What a fun series of movies which take us from PEAK carpenter in the 80s to whatever the 90s was.

MOVIES DISCUSSED:

The Thing (1982)

Prince of Darkness (1987)

In the Mouth of Madness (1994)

Grab your boomstick! For part one of our Halloween month horror special, we are tackling Sam Raimi's seminal trilogy that helped launch him into a web slinging career in Hollywood and turned Bruce Campbell from a skinny Michigander to a masculine Cadillac of men. Spooky season is in full effect and it feels GROOVY.

The Evil Dead (1981)

Evil Dead II (1987)

Army of Darkness (1992)

In honor of Brendan Fraser  (don't call it a comeback) the boys, with guest star Adrian of the FanFreaks and Eagle & Wolf podcast, unwrap some of the classics of their youth, as well as a poorly conceived third entry. This was a fun one.

MOVIES DISCUSSED: 

The Mummy (1999)

The Mummy Returns (2001)

The Mummy: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor (2008)

The boys dive into the contentious filmography of The Insane Dane himself, Nicholas Winding Refn! From his surprise smash hit debut, to his triumphant return to the series, to the masterpiece of the third entry. These movies are true Eurotrash Masterpieces!

Pusher (1996)

Pusher II (2004)

Pusher 3 (2005)

Let's hop in the way back machine to the decidedly un-PC 1970s, with the strange, scuzzy and sublime street stories of Sir Ralph Bakshi.
