Get in buddy! We’re talking about a beautifully tragic tale. A story so improbably perfect for all of us self-avowed cretins. It was born evil and has possessed every youth who’s watched it since. How about we all agree Christine is about as magnificent a movie as you’ll ever experience in October. Just ask Phil!

What else can I say? No shitter ever came between me and this movie. If they did, watch out.

Disclaimer: 
I (admittedly) don’t know about you, but I do know what this movie symbolized to me as an adolescent. It’s the dream that the seeds of who you believe, or imagine yourself to be, can be seen by others. And that you can end up living your (day)dream at the end of the day. Someday. With that boy or girl you've pined for. Quite simple. Even as an adult, being fully capable of digesting the subtext….I stand by that. 

Now let's get weird with this outlier in John Hughes' teen comedy canon. If you ask us, it's still funny and lovable, but with a zanier charm than his other movies. You’re stewed, buttwad!

However, if you’re offended by the social or gender dynamics and stereotypes in this movie, the DeLorean is pulled over. So feel free to get out. See what we did there? Back To The Future was number one at the box office the weekend Weird Science opened. That and things were very different back then. And if you try to go back and change something, you could end up in a relationship with your mom. 
 
You see, a theme is about as serious as the sense of humor it's wrapped in when delivered....at least that's what we're telling ourselves. Lalalalalala, we're not listening, but we hope you are!

We’re mailing it in with this one, flunking out in true Summer School fashion. No excuses, no doctors notes. I'm sure we're leaving a lot of stones unturned, so if you’re hoping for a deep dive on this movie…..we’ll be in the shallow end waiting for you.

We’ve relied on our winning personalities more than once. Excelling in gaining confidences with words and destroying them with inaction is our currency. All while making you feel like we’ve somehow done you a solid. You’re welcome.

Join us for a couple of Top Ten lists from the 80s. Spoiler, the African ant eater ritual dance is not on them.

Yes, I know it's Polaner All Fruit, not Polymer Real Fruit. Sometimes we get swept up in the frenzy. Can ya blame us?!

Turkey Point is open for business! And King Cry-baby is headlining this raucous romp of rampant juvenile delinquency. 

John Waters has outdone himself with this divine time capsule of cinema for all you ne’er do wells to laze upon. Don’t be a square, revel in all its grease and glory…..because, sometimes shook-up old ladies get cut. 

Yes, I know it's Alannah Myles, and not Keys.

In this sit-down with Thom's brother Jeff with friends Mic and Phil, we're hearing about some of Malden's old hangouts, haunts, and hostile environments. All that along with documenting our families storied past. What a bargain! Even Sparks can't comete with this deal.

This episode veers away from our conventional movie content. I’ve always planned to make periodical releases about growing up in Malden during the 80s. And if you think I’m starting a whole other podcast just to do it, blow it out your ass. 

In short, we had a very unconventional childhood. Let’s just say that my mother had to reinvent her life after being left in the lurch (to put it mildly). She ultimately bought a rooming house to get all of her kids back under one roof. And growing up with countless, colorful renters living in our house was just a small slice of the never ending lawlessness that swirled around the family. 

This is a sit down with my brother Jeff and our friend Mic to capture a handful of the hundreds of stories my brother has survived to share. Recording them is a mere shadow of hearing them in the wild, but this is where we’re at. These are some handpicked gems from the couple of hours we captured last June. We genuinely hope you enjoy them.

I don't think I could do this episode any more justice than the title itself. See what I did there? Well, didjya?
