Fan favorite Garrett Smith returns to the podcast as we cover our next 80s Cult Classic movie: The NeverEnding Story! After talking about our history (or lack thereof) with this movie -- and our shared history of taping movies off TV -- we talk about how this movie haunted kid-aged Garrett. Joe makes a request to bring back making movies inspired by hallucinogens. We discuss the German version of this movie, the one change the writer absolutely hated, and the physical puppets and effects in this movie. We pick our Most 80s Moment (featuring a lap-first exemption), talk about the elements that Stranger Things borrowed (stole) from this movie, and find ourselves in awe of the Empress. Joey makes Garrett talk about The Nothing. We wonder: is it worth exploring other movies in the series? Would kids today like this movie?
