Vic In A Box episodes

  • Episode 43 – SAG Awards, Blood Wolf Supermoon, Mahershala Ali
    Episode 43 - Good to be back! Vic attends the Fire Festival in his own backyard. Bark at the Super Blood Wolf Moon! Steph Curry loves vegetable lasagna. Gettin’ saggy with the SAG Awards: Darren Criss, of The Assassination of Gianni Versace, takes home the Actor, along with the likes of Patricia Arquette in Escape at Dannemora, Rachel Brosnahan as The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel, and Sandra Oh in Killing Eve. Man-crushing on Sterling K. Brown & his amazing teardrop, as well as Mahershala Ali out-acting everyone else on any screen he appears on. Vice is Vic’s pick for Best Pic, his choice flick for 2018. Michael B. Jordan reinvents the bra as his Louis Vuitton harness turns heads on the red carpet. Best Cats in a Motion Picture deservedly goes to Black Panther. (Also, Best Cast.) The Kominsky Method is well worth delving deeply into. Roma garners critical acclaim as a coming-of-age memoir for the great director Alfonso Cuarón. L.A. drivers be steady with the Birdbox challenge. Our opinions differ slightly on Spider-Man: Into the Spider-verse, but there’s no debate that the animation looks out of this world. And Emily Blunt is quite delightful in her star turn as Mary Poppins.

  • Episode 41 – Maniac, Luke Cage, Ancient Aliens
    Episode 41 - Back back backy back. The Summer of Sandlot is slowly subdued to a simmer... ya know... because it’s Fall. Vic goes a-cruisin’ and misses out on Tulúm, in Mexico (frowny face). Chichén Itzá is a must-see as well. What Giorgio Tsoukalos REALLY means is Aliens. Don’t take rocks from ancient ruins. ICYMI: the Philadelphia Eagles are defending Super Bowl Champions. Upcoming Attractions: Saturday, 10/13 - Vic & Marty are at Ultimate Pastime Sports in Ontario, CA. (“CA” is California, not Canada.) Saturday, 10/20 - pretty much the whole Sandlot crew, including Marley Shelton!, are at Dynasty Sports in the Oxford Valley Mall of PA. Then! October 27th & 28th - ComicCon in Alamo City, TX! Vic will never beat up Arnold Schwarzenegger. A Star is Born is excellent, really gives you the feels, and Lady Gaga is phenomenal. A Simple Favor was pretty good, which in itself blew Steve away. Maniac is an entertainingly schizophrenic limited series on Netflix, in the vein of a Terry Gilliam film. Hakuna matata. Vic’s still watching Luke Cage, but give him a break, he’s been traveling like crazy. “Shades” is a stupid name, but Daredevil (the Charlie Cox one) is the man! But he’s missing! Gone! Outta here... just like us.

  • Episode 40 – Oakland A’s, Aubrey Plaza, Deadpool 2
    Episode 40 - Alright alright alright! Sandlot successes in SLC and SLO. Come join the fellas out at the Oakland A’s game: Oakland Colosseum, September 1st! Procure yourself a seat with their rabid fans... in the A-Hole? Updating movie quotes for the new millennium. Pitching a remake of The Garbage Picking Field Goal Kicking Philadelphia Phenomenon. Art LaFleur calls his shot, but turns down your beer. Birthday parties are not appropriate for adults. Aubrey Plaza is a Delawarean. Deadpool 2 is a delight. A movie is a horrible date idea. Hulu’s Castle Rock spins many of Stephen King’s stories into one entertaining yarn. Season 6 of Orange is the New Black does not disappoint. HBO’s Sharp Objects showcases Amy Adams cutting through the tension of murder in the small-town South. Disenchanted, on Netflix, brings The Simpson’s creator Matt Groening’s twisted fairy tale to binge-watching stream-ability. Now go binge! Get outta here!

Steve gets hit with the misogyny buzzer. Kevin hops on the Westworld train, full steam ahead. Vic & Whitney get hooked on the Netflix documentary, The Staircase. It’s a slow death march through seasons 2 of Luke Cage & Jessica Jones. Sicario: Day of the Soldado is a solid movie, telling a cautionary tale of Mexican corruption. Michael C. Hall test drives his English accent in the riveting Netflix thriller, Safe. And we illustrate the subtle differences between Obama & Trump.

  • Episode 38 – Special Wife Edition!
    Episode 38 - Victor is joined by his beloved wife & cohost-in-life, Whitney DiMattia. Surprise Days are key to a happy marriage. Vic prefers pale white or sunburn to getting a Man Tan, but Zinka was the jam. Martha Stewart is the Body Electric. Too many songs make no damn sense. Manfred Mann was definitely saying douche. Illustrating the subtle differences between Lyft and Uber. Wield enormous power and swipe right for a girlfriend. Uhhh, Lisa no en casa. Cow Town returns with a vengeance! Potato chip chocolate bars are scrumptious. And what the hell is a madeleine? Cookie? Brownie? Cake? Trader Joe’s Cookie Butter is to die for... or because of. Froyo or frogurt? A dessert by any other name... Whitney is smitten with The Handmaid’s Tale, Westworld, and Succession, and pretty much any other show that Victor has mentioned before, unless it has superheroes in it. Holy Matrimony, Batman!

  • Episode 37 – Incredibles 2, Street Food Cinema, iPhone Secrets Exposed!
    Episode 37 - Uh-oh, Spaghetti-o’s! Wisdom tooth surgery ain’t no joke. Pass out the good painkillers! Shoutin’ out some ‘casts: check out our friends, The Bright Side with with Kevin and Jason, as well as The Dan and Kody Podcast. Catch Vic & some of the guys as The Sandlot will be at Street Food Cinema in Pasadena, CA, Sat. June 30th. Roll out! There’s nothing quite like the feeling you get from a full-service car wash. Movie Pass is amazing (so far)! The Incredibles 2 is incredible too!! The Westworld finale was excellent, but requires a deeper dive to fully grasp all the layers. Watchin’ my stories: Columbo gets cred for being quite the sassy sleuth. Game Night is a great stay-at-home movie. HBO’s Succession succeeds, depicting the power struggles that come from mixing family & business. iPhone notes can double as a pretty sweet scanner, if you can figure it out. And get our producers off our backs: rate & review the show! No dick pics!

    Episode 35 - Philadelphia Freedom! Trump rescinds the Eagles’ invitation to the White House. No one likes us, we don’t care. The Great Shane Obedzinski, little brother Tommy ‘Repeat’ Timmons, visits the show!! Shane confirms Vic’s learnings that Florida drivers are the worst. Kentucky’s Louisville Slugger Museum has a pretty sweet Sandlot installation for the summer. Shane reveals witchcraft was behind his method-acting mimicry. Stanley Cup playoff hockey dominates Shane’s view, with Westworld on the horizon. Netflix shows Requiem & Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt continue the streaming service’s string of success. Bill Hader shows Dexterity in bringing HBO’s Barry to life. World War II in Color breathes realism into old stock footage of the great conflict. Chip’s surgery leaves him in the Cone of Shame. Beyoncé & Eminem killed it at Coachella, while flying canopies only *nearly* killed. Stay thirsty, young buck!

  • Episode 34 – Summer Vacation, More Infinity Wars, Gilmore Girls
    Episode 34 - Shakin’ & Bakin’! Vacay All Day!!! Vic & Whitney spend their Cotton Anniversary on an epic road tour of Florida. To the Keys, if you please! Tin foil hats might prevent a David Blaine mind-reading. Steve & Debbie take a trip-of-a-lifetime to Italy. Ignorant Americans are everywhere. Italian food is better in Italy... go figure. Mussolini’s Revenge ain’t no joke. The Avengers: Infinity War garners more high praise and another 9/10 rating. Traveling light-speed through the Marvel Cinematic Universe is no easy task. Traveling light-speed with the dialogue of Gilmore Girls is no easy task. Traveling light-speed in the movie Interstellar, for Matthew McConaughey, is no easy task. (But an awesome movie!) Two thumbs up for Jet Blue Airlines! Two thumbs down for Norwegian. And the Sandlot Summer sizzles some more: Citizen’s Bank Park in Philly, June 9th!

  • Episode 33 – Special Guest Marty York, Avengers: Infinity War, Westworld
    Episode 33 - And the Summer of Sandlot continues... Angels’ Stadium was a blast, autographed copies galore, & friend of the show Marty York stops by for a chat! Vic & Marty are set to appear in Philly, June 9th, at Citizen’s Bank Park for a Phillies game... Dodger Stadium June 16th!! Billion-dollar blockbuster Avengers: Infinity War lives up to the hype. A Quiet Place goes Hitchcockian with the suspense. Tequila shots and guacamole for Cinco de Mayo. Westworld returns with A+ programming and deserves an immediate binge if you’re not caught up. Handmaid’s Tale hits Hulu, back with another dose of Sci-Fi Puritanism. Lost in Space intriguingly melds good cast with good story, paying homage to a classic. Dallasonians are cryin’ in their crème brûlée. Justice League is no Avengers, but it’s not as bad as detractors make it out to be. Gary Oldman must’ve thought it was White Boy Day. Social media, social schmedia... it all eventually goes to babies and dogs. And a Travelin’ Man can’t wait to buy some luggage...
