It's often called one of the few movie soundtracks that's better than the movie itself. But IS IT? James and I called back to our season 2 episode about JUDGMENT NIGHT (the movie) and discussed the JUDGMENT NIGHT soundtrack, famous for its collaborations between rock bands and hip-hop artists. James had a surprising opinion about the Slayer / Ice-T collab and an even more surprising opinion about Sonic Youth, Teenage Fanclub, De La Soul, and Cypress Hill. We wondered aloud if Eddie Vedder even showed up for Pearl Jam's sessions for their song, which dovetailed into a drubbing of Vedder's many imitators, your Puddles of Mudd, your Creeds and what you will. We discussed Biohazard and Evan Seinfeld's porn career, and also generated our own adult film star names. We also talked about nu-metal still being good gym music in 2023, Jnco jeans and BMX bikes, shoplifting, and we tried to fantasy book a sequel to this soundtrack. We also might think the SPAWN soundtrack is better.

BONUS: TRUE LIES THE TV SHOW
As a nice bit of symmetry with the season 2 finale, and some bonus content to tide y'all over while we work on season 3, we donned our hard hats, cleaned the Burger King wrappers out of our lunch pails, and returned to the podcast mines to discuss the pilot of the new CBS series TRUE LIES starring Steve Howey and Ginger Gonzaga as Harry and Helen Tasker. We talked about some of the callbacks to the movie in the episode, as well as some of the, shall we say, lightening up of the proceedings to make it palatable for Gramma and Grandpa to watch on CBS every week. We also discussed party lines, the WCW hotline, Bloodhound Gang, Mexican pastries, weird sodas, and, inspired by Steven Seagal's new Order of Friendship award from Vladimir Putin, James has a surprise for Bryne.

#40: TRUE LIES (1994)
It's the Season 2 finale and for this one we went big. Real big. We're talking about Box Office Jim himself.
We convened IN PERSON for the only time this season to watch one of our favorite movies of all time: 1994's TRUE LIES starring Arnold Schwarzenegger, Jamie Lee Curtis, Tom Arnold, and Bill Paxton, directed by James Cameron. We did our best through a few beers and a few hits to try and distill what makes this movie an action classic: It's basically a live-action cartoon with big-time set pieces, amazing practical effects and stunts, and plenty of comedy. We also delved into some of the xenophobic stuff in it that hasn't aged as well and has led arguably to all action movie villains being white guys now, as it should be. Thanks for listening and we'll catch your ass down the road for Season 3!
