Dan revisits films (and other things!) from different stages in his life and discusses whether or not it's as good as remembers it being, what's still good, what's no longer good and hopefully just has some fun with his friends.
Episode 13 - Why Do We Love Scary Movies with Jamie K Howard
It's spooky film season and in honor of Halloween I could think of no better return guest than Jamie Kirsten Howard from The Bloody Broads podcast and everything else scary
We talk about my overall cowardice when it comes to being scared and then what is it about horror that gives us a unique tool for processing our feelings

Episode 12 - My History with Tabletop Gaming
Due to travel this was a solo episode where I set the stage for my background in tabletop gaming (RPG's, CCG's, and mini gaming)
Just me chatting for about 40 minutes and hopefully getting across why this meant something to me
If you have specific games you'd like to come on and talk about why you love them, please reach out and we can talk about them

Episode 11 - Arise Serpentor, Arise with Craig (aka HooverStreetRag)
Real American Heroes might have been the first lesson in woke capitalism and I'm only partly joking.
Also Beachhead is in a bar somewhere right now just dog cussing the refs from the Auburn/UGA game

Episode 10 - The Goonies Eventually Have Fun with The Core!
It's another episode that's the exact premise of the show (or its original premise at least!).
Corey aka The Core comes on to bring both an adult and an Oregonian perspective to the Goonies. A movie we think is basically two movies in one and the second one is a lot more interesting than the first.

Episode 9 - Who is the Batman with Ryan Nanni
I'm a giver so it was important to give other small content creators a shot to promote themselves and I'm pleased this week to introduce you all to Ryan Nanni. I think he has a future.
Ryan and I breakdown what makes Batman so compelling that he might be the most widely portrayed comic character on the screen and how do we hink about Batman and what he means to us as some kind of symbol.
We also shit on both Joel Schumacher Batman movies really hard.

Episode 8.5 - Minisode "The Male Loneliness Epidemic" with just me
Sorry to be kind of serious, but apparently today ended being a day where the world was moved to talk about this topic and while I was on my walk I was also moved to think about it and then talk about it
Warning, this is basically joint therapy. I dont' think there are answers here, but we can work through our thoughts together

Episode 8 - Krull Was So Close to Greatness with Blanx!
It's one of the movies that inspired the whole damn pod and I finally got to talk about it.
I'm joined by the internet's own Blanx and we breakdown how this movie was important to us as kids. How it's still a lot of fun and how it could be so much better.

Episode 7 - Oasis with Meghan Colleen!
Dan tests your knowledge of unknown Oasis songs like "Don't Walk Away Angry" proving that I am the realest fan of all
Seriously though, Meghan talked about why Oasis meant something to her as a tween. Why they still mean something to her as an adult and how musicians can grow as people right along side us.
Fantastic conversation with a fantastic guest. I hope you'll like, subscribe and share!

Episode 6 - Little Big League with Kyle Bandujo
I got to bring on the guy that inspired me to start a podcast in the first place and talk about a highly underrated movie in Little Big League. This equally became a podcast about how Rookie of the Year sucks, but mostly it's about how you can tell when people care about the thing they are making.

Episode 5 - UHF with Ethan Lavery
We're getting into a rhythm with these episodes now! I'm also figuring out how to use my mic and edit the sound. Progress!
Ethan and I wrap about a movie that helps you identify safe people and how parody does not have to be mean to be funny.
Let's remember to subscribe and maybe even like if that's your thing.

Episode 4 - Dawn of the Dead with Jamie Kirsten Howard
It's September y'all so spooky season is here and Jamie Kirsten Howard (Glitterburrito) joined me to discuss Dawn of the Dead.
This movie absolutely slaps and still talks about a lot of things that matter today.

Episode 3 - My Brain Will Be the Death of Me and Sports Movie Injuries
This podcast has a real chance to be something if I don't screw it up by being a disorganized mess. I also dive into some more thoughts about what I hope we get out of this show.
Finally, I go on a brief rant about how knees can be fixed despite what Hollywood screenwriters would have you believe.

Episode 2 - Rounders with irishoutsider!
I have a guest! Special thanks to irishoutsider, whose fake name is apparently Mike, for coming on and continuing to explore the general idea of the pod with me.
We dive into Rounders and its place in the Dude-Bro pantheon of movies.
I might have also accidentally spoken a pickleball movie into existence. We'll see if I have Mothman powers of my own.
Thank you for listening!

Episode 1 - We're Talking Vision Quest
1. Thanks to Jamie Howard for the new podcast title.
2. There's a freebie theme song, let's make it official and call it episode 1
3. I talk a bit about my history with wrestling and why that lead me to push so hard for Kyle to put Vision Quest on Big Screen Sports.
4. The wrestling in this movie was not actually great!
5. Still the best movie ever made about a high school wrestler cutting twenty pounds to wrestle the best guy in the state while losing his virginity to an older woman.

Episode 0 - Is this thing on? (Dan talks Bloodsport by himself)
Let's revisit one of my most rewatched childhood movies ever and one that I hope to someday revisit with a guest if I actually stick with this concept. This was mostly a test for sound and to give folks something to give me feedback on.
