Last Looks: Fifty Shades Freed & Ronal the Barbarian

What's its mission? June's fear of technology prompts that unforgettable question when the HDTGM crew break down the 1995 cyber-thriller Hackers starring Angelina Jolie, Jonny Lee Miller, Fisher Stevens, and Lorraine Bracco. They discuss the movie's bonkers take on common computer passwords, the hackers' fashion, Penn Jillette in the big computer room, and Fisher Stevens' amazing performance as "The Plague." Plus, the gang takes a break from movie talk to gab all about candy bars, gum, and vaping. (Originally Released 11/27/2015)

Matinee Monday: Hackers

Chelsea Devantez (Glamorous Trash) joins Paul and Jason to complete the Fifty Shades of Grey Trilogy by breaking down 2018's Fifty Shades Freed starring Dakota Johnson, Jamie Dornan, and three confusingly identical blonde actresses. LIVE from Largo, they discuss the gross ice cream sex scene, the car chase sequence, HR Liz, how Christian should've looked more like Jack Reacher, and so much more. Plus, a sick June calls in with a special guest to tell us the part of the movie that offended her the most. 

Chelsea's comedy-gal memoir "I Shouldn't Be Telling You This (But I'm Going To Anyway)" drops June 4th & you can pre-order it here.

They get into NYC mayor Roger Ebert, the many boats that fall off Godzilla, Madison Square Garden becoming an egg nest, and so much more. Pop on your headphones and listen, as long as you're not scared of giant lizards sneaking up on you! (Originally Released 06/19/2012)
