“Chris and Drew talk about Steven Seagal’s second movie, the 1990 classic Hard to Kill. Is the dialogue so bad it swings back around to good? Has Seagal ever done a push up? Could William Sadler play a good guy with THAT face? Is it important that this movie keeps mentioning the 1983 Oscars? Do bones bend that way? These questions are pondered in this week’s episode, as we continue our 12 months of Seagal!”

“Chris and Drew talk all about the 1985 classic Teen Wolf. They get into Stiles’ t-shirts, Wolf Dad’s horny levels, the Coach’s weirdly abundant screen time, the appropriate time for spin the bottle, getting your name misspelled in the newspaper, and of course, basketball. Lots of basketball. Enjoy!”

“Chris and Drew talk about Above The Law, the world’s introduction to the cinematic force and artistic auteur that is Steven Seagal. How much glass gets broken in this movie? How much of an influence did Andrew Davis have? Did Nico cheat on his wife with his partner? Is that the world’s softest machete? What is Seagalogy? This starts our 12 months of Seagal for 2020 and we hope you enjoy coming along with us on this insane ride!”

“Chris and Drew talk all about the 1973 martial arts action classic Enter The Dragon. What’s at the bottom of that spiked water pit? Why was Bolo so easy to defeat? What is the plural of praying mantis? Who should we call to build out our evil villain lair? How could we do a decent remake of this movie? Why don’t raptors have gills? All these questions and more get asked and maybe answered in this week’s episode, so load up your rikshaws and head down to the harbor because we are taking a trip to Han’s Island (well, a fortress really). Enjoy!”

“Chris and Drew go deep on this 1987 arm wrestling classic Over The Top! Is this a movie about class differences? Did Terry Funk ask for real glass? Is the rich old Grandpa right about everything? Why does that dirty arm sock help Lincoln Hawk? And is it Hawk or Hawks? And why did this feel so sexual? All these questions will be insufficiently answered in this week’s episode, so climb into this big rig and bicep pump your way to victory with us!”

“Chris and Drew talk all about the 1994 action classic TRUE LIES. Is this Arnold Schwarzenegger’s last great movie? Is the Aziz character racist? Does it matter? What are some other things that would make you beg for buttermilk? Strap into your F-16s and fire these podcast missiles into your earholes with this week’s show!”

“Chris and Drew talk about the 1993 capoeria classic Only The Strong. We point out all the ways this is a right wing fantasy, how this is the only movie ABOUT capoeria, the basic yet decent plotting, the awesome fight scenes, the overall cheapness, and so much more, so get on this school bus heading into the woods in the middle of the night and enjoy this week’s episode!”

“Chris and Drew go deep on Commando, the 1985 Arnold Schwarzenegger classic, and they ask and try to answer all the important questions: what’s up with that score? Does overweight Freddie Mercury want to fuck John Matrix? Was that motel room guy getting pegged? Does this make it into Chris’ top 5 Arnold movies? Why didn’t Drew watch the director’s cut? And more!”

“Chris and Drew go deep on the 1988 action classic (and Donald Trump’s favorite movie), Bloodsport, so they talk about Frank Dux’s real life claims, Van Damme’s splits, Forest Whitaker’s chopstick work, Bolo Yeung’s pecs, Stan Bush’s music, and much more! So Dim Mak your brain with this podcast punch to your ears! KUMITE! KUMITE! KUMITE! (Fight to surviiiiiive!)”
