Whiskey Wednesday Podcast

This movie stars Chuck Norris.  Watch it.  Listen to it.  Be thankful.  Also Cragie sucks.

Our first Marky Mark flick is a tale of the world's most misunderstood spec ops team.  I cannot overstate how much that they are misunderstood, because their decision making is absolute garbage.  Marky Mark is a gigantic asshole who yells at his team, eventually gets them all killed, and like a complete sociopath instantly shrugs it off like he forgot his umbrella in a cab.  All told, its a straightforward action flick with one amazing redeeming quality...our man...IKO UWAIS

Another JCVD classic.  Tong Po has crippled Eric Sloane and it's up to Eric's brother Kurt to avenge him.  All it will take is a lot of training, a glib sensei, drunk dancing, and a shit ton of hawks.  Wrap your hands in hemp cord, dip them in glass, open a bottle of Mekong Spirit, and watch a must see film from the late 80's.

It's an ugly planet, a bug planet!  Our federation heroes are gonna kill 'em all...or at least die a lot before catching Jabba the Bug in a big net.  A Sci-fi classic from 1997 that shows us fascism, as government of the future, would be bad.  As if we needed to be told that.  This was a lot of fun to do, a shit ton of laughs along with some real craziness, VERY large plot holes, and VERY large actual holes.  Load your weapons, gather your remaining best friends, try to not die horribly, and you too can get a minor field promotion!  Welcome to the Roughnecks!

Charles Bronson is Jack Murphy, a burned out cop who has been framed for three murders.  This is a Cannon joint, Bronson is a bit older, and the premise is razor thin.  That all adds up to a very fun watch, Bronson is extra surly in this, and his counterpart Arabella McGee (Kathleen Wilhoite from Road House, ER, and other things) is given some of the worst dialogue you've ever heard.  Very little of this movie makes sense but it's worth a watch.

Crime is the disease and Marion "Cobra" Cobretti is the cure...but also he is a power crazed "health nut" cop who recommends you eat cheese instead of cake to stay healthy.  He also has a laser sight on his machine gun for day time shooting and plenty of hamburger based comedy.  We remembered this movie being more fun but it's absolutely worth a watch if you haven't seen it before.  It's a tribute to the 80's, robots, pizza scissors, and Reagan era crime panic.

We finally cover Bond 25, and the penultimate episode of Bottled in Bond?  It's a masterpiece and anyone whom says otherwise is frankly very wrong.  So many deaths, so many quips, possibly the most attractive female duo we've ever had, a top third villain, great cars, plenty of gadgets, drinking, set pieces...I could on for days.  If you have an issue with Bond's personal life choices or the ending then you are a cold person.  This movie rocks and we have a blast talking about it.

Back to basics.  We've got a classic Arnold movie, swords, sorcery, Wilt Chamberlain protecting a 14 year old princess's virtue...frankly a lot of weird choices but a damn entertaining movie.  Arnie is buff as shit, along with some old school special effects, and most importantly Thomas buying a Conan sword then surprising Erik with it around minute 10.  Bad decisions are the theme.  Listen or don't, I can't tell you what to do.

Buckle up for 3 hours of pure chaos, brought to you by 5 hosts in various states of inebriation and anger.  We talk whiskey, wine, beer, Bobby Bonilla Day, No time to Die, tipsy Amazon shopping, Car-Jitsu, the six simple machines (previously four), expensive Japanese caskets, expensive Japanese dog houses, LIV-Golf, Thomas spilling drinks, and much more.  It's a lot, listen at your own risk.

In honor of the 4th of July, we covered a weird American/Israeli jingoistic sizzle reel that is the Delta Force.  Chuck Norris, Lee Marvin, Steve James, Joey Bishop, George Kennedy, Martin Balsam, Shelley Winters, and so many more.  Not to mention more Uzis than you can shake a stick at plus rocket shooting motorcycles.  This is the movie I've seen the most.  Watch it, Love it, spray it with bullets.
