"TWO PRICKS TALK 80S FLICKS" is where we (Mike & Darren) talk about - you guessed it! - 80s flicks! We discuss, mock, laugh at, venerate, analyse, scorn, and generally have a laugh while talking about films we have loved from the gaudiest decade known to mankind. Comedy, horror, drama, rom-com, action - we take them all on and have a giggle while doing so!
We laugh our way through the Dirty Dancing, the career of Patrick Swayze, 80s training montages, Jennifer Grey and her nose, the bildungsroman and sexual awakening, the male gaze, mesmerism, the US class system, Ayn Rand, ATMs, the Borscht Belt, and much, much more...

Episode 2 - "Creepshow"

Episode 1 - Monty Python's "The Meaning Of Life"
Our first episode, in which we laugh ourselves silly talking about Monty Python's "The Meaning Of Life": its background, funding, writing, acting, artwork, directing and, er, meaning, and try to evaulate it against the other Python films. While doing silly voices and quoting the best bits. Enjoy!
