Holiday Special '24: Eyes Wide Shut

We are back with a Kubrick Christmas Classic! In this belated holiday special we jam on Eyes Wide Shut, one of the more mystifying and surreal works of Kubes. We also tap in with our Top 5 films of 2024! Crack open "a beer" with us!

Interstellar / Hot Frosty (feat. Bottom Bracket)

Our humor setting is at 100% as Mario Cannamela of Bottom Bracket and Parachute Day sends us through a wormhole to revisit Christopher Nolan's Interstellar as well as Hot Frosty and many other film productions! What does Tony Romo think of Megalopolis? It's all here in this episode.

Halloween Special '24: Donnie Darko

Hey we're back! On this episode, Dan, Tommy, and Bridget discuss the 2001 coming-of-age sci-fi classic Donnie Darko and drink a gin/mezcal cocktail called Sparkle Motion. We also take the ACT exam again and realize that we are smart enough to appreciate Francis Ford Coppola's Megalopolis.

Ghostbusters (feat. Nora Marks)

Matt Galante of Nora Marks joins Dan and Tommy to share his love for the 1984 comedy blockbuster Ghostbusters! How many bands do we know have sampled lines from these movies and who's next? What legendary musician would have the worst Twitter presence if they were still alive? Find out on this episode.

BridgetVision: Whiplash

The debut of our new sub-series BridgetVision™, in which we watch movies with Movie Club alum Bridget Stiebris of OK Cool. This time it's Whiplash (2014). We also tell some of our favorite movie theater stories and discuss academic ethics. The key is to just relax.
