episode The Mummy and an Ode to Brendan Fraser cover

Description

It's time to party--again--like it's 1999, with a look back at The Mummy and the franchise it spawned. While spending some time on the movie itself, the coversation turns to a love fest for Brendan Fraser and his underrated list of films, his range in Bedazzled, and his powerful performance in The Whale, which deservedly earned him an Oscar in 2023. Also, Zach rails on Tom Cruise, leading to a debate on the merits of the Mission Impossible and Fast and the Furious films.

Christmas Favorites: A Christmas Story

While you enjoy the marathon of A Christmas Story this Christmas Eve, Germ and Zach discuss the classic tale of Ralphie, his quest for a Red Ryder Carbine Action BB gun, and his overactive imagination (lookin' at you, Bad Bart). As always, there are detours, including stories of bb guns, hunting carpenter bees and Star Wars figures, and how HBO gave an entire generation of boys an easier way to see nudity. And Fraggles. When on topic, the duo also chat about Peter Billingsley's iconic role and where his career went from there, how the film inspired the creation of The Wonder Years, and Darren McGavin's made-up gibberish of swearing rants. Enjoy revisiting Cleveland Street with Germ and Zach, then go watch a Christmas Story! Merry Christmas all!
