The Gen X Files

One of the last movies released in the '80s, it's the apogee of '80s action movies, and the second installment of our Other Buddies month: Tango & Cash! Starring Sylvester Stallone and Kurt Russell, with no less than four directors, and a writer that refused to put his name on the movie, it's a feature that shouldn't work, but does... so, so well.

First up for our Other Buddies month is the unlikely duo of Billy Crystal and Gregory Hines, playing Chicago cops that want to quit and move to the Florida Keys. Directed by Peter Hyams and written by Gary DeVore, it's good cops who do bad things, sometimes.

We close out our Haterade month with a review of the awful movies we forced ourselves to watch, what movies and TV shows we've been watching, and the video games we've been playing. Let us know what you've been consuming!

For our last entry into our Haterade month, we explore Jim's second choice: Clerks, the low budget black and white debut film from Kevin Smith! Will Jim still hate it? Give it a listen and find out!

More than meets the eye! And the eye suffers from the constant barrage of flashing lights and bad music, as we cover The Transformers: The Movie. It was The Transformers TV show, but on the big screen! It had rock and roll music! The Transformers swore! The Transformers died! It all added up to a lot of boring nonsense.

There can be only one! Unless it's Highlander, then there's a bunch of movies, TV shows, and animated media, and... they're all terrible. It's the second week of our Haterade month and Adam really, really hates Highlander. Listen to see if he's totally wrong or can sway you away from liking an incredibly stupid movie.

Welcome to Haterade month! First up, a movie that Jim hated in the theater, in 1985, and a movie that Adam learned to hate from watching it for this episode. It's Explorers, showcasing the wasted talents of Joe Dante, River Phoenix, Jason Presson, and Ethan Hawke. Well, Ethan Hawke is perfect for this movie.

We're at the end of our First Loves month, so join your stepdads as we discuss The Six Million Dollar Man, Quantum Leap (the original series and the newer one), Stephen King, what movies and TV shows you should check out, and fun new video games to play.

In our third installment of First Loves, we're chatting about the writer that made Jim and Adam voracious readers, the master of horror, description, and word count: Stephen King!

We cover his books from the '70s and '80s and the many, many adaptations of his work.

Take a leap with us back to 1989, as we join Sam Beckett try to get home with the help of his hologram best friend, Al Calavicci. Quantum Leap, created by Donald P. Bellisario, starring Scott Bakula and Dean Stockwell.
