Who Spiked The Puns?

Is it really possible for Pauly Shore to basically be the hero of 2 entire films - one of them a Scorsese 'masterpiece'? Sean Astin says no, and Joe Pesci probably would too, if he wasn't busy being shoved in a hole.

This week we are joined by the bodacious Chris Braaten from our Californian buddies More Gooder Than. This was our first time on air together, getting ready for our podcasts joining forces in August - when Bradlee & Fuzzy head stateside!

Hear us struggle to picture De Niro as anything other than 100% Italiano mobster. Hear us praise James Woods' drug addict convenience store clerk scumbag. How is Pauly Shore not dealing FAT BAGS of sweet stinky weed? How did Brendan Fraser learn to dance bad choreography on the spot?!? Why does Dom Deluise's son look like Guile from Street Fighter? Is that Robin Tunney?? That's mental(ist).

We close out this episode with a cover of Four Letter Word, by seminal Sacramento band Cake. Made even funnier by Fuzzy looking just like John McCrea, with less vibraslap and political rhetoric.

We talk to you wonderful listeners in between episodes for specific questions, but if you have something random to ask, a suggestion for an episode (or song), or just a ridiculous movie related story, get onto our Facebook or mailbag! If you are an Apple Podcasts (iTunes) user, head on over to give us a killer review! :

The first question to ask is; Will Fuzzy Dan make it to the end of the episode without the Chestburster exploding forth from his lungs? You'll have to wait & find out!

For our 6th little minisode, we cover such topics as favourite movie props, favourite movie soundtracks, 'Uber or prostitute?', self-inflicted workplace injury, Cypress Hill - Hullabalooza style, Dillinger Escape Plan, Orgazmorators, jousting sticks, and of course - Neeko shitting on Tom Hanks!

It is with heavy hearts that we close out this episode with a tribute to the late GREAT Chris Cornell. Soundgarden were a major major influence on us musically, and we all agree that Cornell's singing was absolutely from another planet. Rest in peace, you magnificent man. 

Next week, we drop Casino Man - featuring Chris 'Braato' Braaten from our Californian brothers More Gooder Than. It was a super fun time!

Chris Cornell, we love you x
 

After some 50 episodes, & 84 movies mashed up, blended, and punched in the balls... we finally review our second movie that's actually showing at the cinema! The first one was the abomination that was Independence Day: Resurrection. Hint - This one was infinitely more fun!

We had Paul from The Countdown: Movie & TV Reviews Podcast join us from Perth. We had a blast discussing the Alien franchise as a whole, reviewing Covenant, spoiling Covenant, and predictions for the future with varying levels of seriousness. The scrapped Blomkamp project - Alien vs Chappie gets a mention.

Non-spoiler review until exactly 28 minutes... after that, buyer beware! Additionally, if you haven't even watched the trailers and plan on going in totally blind, we spoil those BEFORE 28 minutes. Just FYI! :)

We close out this episode with a stripped-down acoustic cover of Tool's H. Enjoy!

Every now and then, the 3 of us come across a mashup that proves hard to pick a winner. This may or may not be one of those. Stalking under the guise of romance, and systematic abuse under the guise of juvenile detention... this episode's got it all. Well, at least those 2 things. We do our best to tread lightly over the macabre subject matter of Sleepers, and conversely, we hold up Meg Ryan to the strictest scrutiny.

Will co-host Neeko & Tom Hanks ever make up? How many Meg Ryan puns can we fit into 30 seconds? Why are there so many links between Sleepers & Basketball Diaries? An early 90s Seattle-based film with no grunge?! And does Fuzzy Dan cough up all 3 of his lungs? None of these questions and more, this week on WSTP!

Promo this week for the Countdown : Movie & TV Reviews Podcast! Stay tuned for a joint-episode in the coming weeks :) http://thecountdownmoviesandtv.podomatic.com/

We're closing out this episode with an acoustic jam of Weezer's Hash Pipe! 

Welcome to the first WSTP release to drop under the 'Movie Pod Squad Network' umbrella! This week 10 film-related podcasts from across the cosmos decided to get together & form a Cyber Voltron. Even though this episode is a minisode, we had a blast recording it (we even recorded it before our Conan Reboot episode; as Aussies we truly are time-travellers).

What happens when you challenge multiple Olympic gold medalist Cathy Freeman to a race around the science museum? How many phone books do 8 year olds need to reach the pedals of their Ford Bronco? Why does Bradlee want to watch clips of Six Feet Under? Does Neeko really hate Seinfeld? Did Fuzzy make a Star Wars diss?

Also, we close out this week's ep. with our random cover of Pumped Up Kicks. Something we thought of out of the blue, and just rolled with it. Stay tuned in the coming weeks, because the list gets weirder and weirder!

Do you use iTunes? If so, pop over & give us a rating! We'd lurrrrve you forever, and it helps us bring more rad content to y'all! Any requests/suggestions for songs, puns, mashups, anything, hit us up :

Promo this week for our brothers from Bakersfield - More Gooder Than!

It's Mr. Universe vs Khal Drogo - who will emerge victorious? This week we pit Conan against Conan, in our 6th Das Reboot installment (almost immediately mistaken by us for our 5th! Read: drunk jerks). We have a special guest this week; friend of the podcast & Conan superfan - Fil Franek. We also have beer, wine, and a lot of cheap scotch!

Exactly how many Game of Thrones crossovers are there? Should you really inhale someone's dying breath? If you can summon sand demons, why are they just as fragile as humans? Is this James Earl Jones' weirdest haircut ever?

Tune in this week to hear us let loose on this ancient phenomenon!

Also this week, we have included some music at the end. We're gonna start doing this as often as we can, covering a vast array of stuff we feel like playing during the week. To kick us off : Scissor Sisters - Laura! Nothing polished or mastered, just random jams. Any requests/suggestions for songs, puns, mashups, anything, hit us up :

Promo this week for the VHS Battle League! 

Welcome to Richmond's wonderful Royston Hotel! This week we are on location at our local watering hole, where we are TOTALLY spoiled for beers and foods, so we thought we'd try our hands at a recording with background noise. We tried to filter the chatter down just right so we are loud & clear and they are, well... slightly less loud & slightly less clear.

Did you know that a caterpillar can sound like a giraffe? Does Bradlee really have scurvy? Did you know there's a Banksy of punctuation? How big has the Rick & Morty culture-net been cast? What's the opposite of being fisted by Hellboy? All these regular questions and more... answered this week on our fourth minisode!

We'll be back next week with our sixth Das Reboot : Conan The Barbarian!! For this episode we welcome our friend Fil Franek; our resident Conan Connoisseur. Look out!

Promos this week for Jake & Tom Conquer The World! Check em out - they rock our collective casbah :)

There is no escape from this ridiculous episode. Whether it be our inability to say Snake Plissken (see fig. 1a - Snape Bizkit), our amusement at Rusty Crowe's tiny, sober chin, or even James Cromwell's long lost Irish accent. Join us as we discuss terrible CGI, pointlessly long run-times, Guy Pearce's staunch mouth, and why Kurt Russell's death-clock keeps telling him to have sex.

If you're new to the podcast, thanks so much for giving us a listen - we hope you enjoy your stay, and see our contact deets below if you have any feedback! We're always looking for questions and suggestions for future episodes. Also, please consider giving us a rate / review in the old iTunes or wherever you get your podcasts - we'd be ever so grateful!

Thanks, pundits! Until next week...

We're back to shoot the shite with you sexy pun pundits! Junkie parrots, coolers full of weed, Sly Stallone on the catwalk, magic mushroom bumper cars, bionic wrists, terrible Netflix shows, handing joints to Dave Chappelle... This one gets random!

We're REALLY enjoying the feedback, conversations, and completely bizarre topical wormholes we find ourselves in talking to y'all. So please keep it up! If you've got anything to ask us (no question is too bizarre, yet), and ideas for episodes, or you think we should be doing something differently, let your voices be heard! We love hearing from you. If you're digging the show (or even if you're not), please consider heading to iTunes or wherever you get your podcasts and chucking a rate/review our way :)

Shhhmile for the camera, it's orgy time! This week it's our third dance with John Hughes (RIP), and our first dance with WSTP newcomer Paul Schrader. Together, they make an epic sex road trip for the ages - fuelled with Mile High Club shenanigans, dismembered bodies in trunks, incest with famous people, The Jerk TV series, and Willem Dafoe's used cock-rings.

Who's got the saddest sad-face? Who's got the craziest one-liner? Who's got the peskiest ding dong?

If you have any ideas for mashups or reboot episodes, or just wanna shoot to the breeze with us, see our deets below! And if you like what you hear, please consider throwing a rate / review our way; it helps us pop up on the radars so we can get more content to YOU - the Pundits!
