8 Episodes

25 minutes | Sep 6, 2020
Say Anything
Are you planning on buying anything bought, sold or processed? Is Kickboxing still the sport of the future? We talk boom boxes, the thrills and spills of calling your first crush from a "home phone" and just why John Cusack is so dreamy as we look back on the 1989 cult-classic Say Anything.

Ghostbusters
Remember, kids, once you've put the ghosts in the nuclear-powered containment unit, you must never, ever, turn it off. Also, don't cross the beams. We talk about Ghostbusters, a movie so good it's still a go-to Halloween costume.

Teen Wolf
In this episode, we break down Teen Wolf, the movie so good it went on to inspire a mediocre television series. Spoiler alert: Michael J. Fox is a teenager. Who’s also a wolf. That’s pretty much all you need to know, but there’s kind of a love story, and also an exciting basketball game at the end. Did I mention the wolf already?

Raiders of the Lost Ark
An army that carries the Ark of the Covenant before it will be invincible. Although it seems really hard to aim, and if you aren't careful, scary ghosts will come out and melt your eyeballs. So, you know, be careful. With Harrison Ford! Fighting Nazis!

Karate Kid
In this episode, we find out if the original Karate Kid stands up to the test of time. And, oh my gosh, the answer is a resounding YES. Wax on, wax off. Crane kick. Sweep the leg. Strike first, strike hard, no mercy. We could do this all day long. Crane kick again, because that part is awesome.

The Goonies
Do you like adventure movies? Do you like big groups of kids who yell a lot? Have you ever wondered if there’s pirate treasure buried in Astoria, Oregon? If you answered yes to any of these questions, then The Goonies might just be the movie for you. Find out more in this exciting episode!

Until the End of the World
We spent four years preparing to make our second episode, and it shows! We know literally everything about Until the End of the World, the Wim Wenders classic, except maybe how to pronounce “Wim Wenders.” Also we didn’t realise it actually came out in 1991, which is technically not in the 80s, until after we’d already watched it. But it’s a great movie all the same. Did Wim Wenders predict social media addiction? Sure looks like it...
