blank check

In your youth, had you ever imagined what you might do if you had 1 million dollars? How you might spend all of those dollars on toys, games, and fun? Well back in 1994, Disney gave us a glimpse into what one young man in fact did with all that money. Blank Check, starring Brian Bonsall and Karen Duffy sees Preston Water cash a "Blank Check" for $1,000,000. However, trouble is not far behind, as he may have accidentally ripped off the wrong guys.

It has begun! The official kickoff episode of season 6, which has been officially dubbed The Season of Bob. That's because Engineer Bob has selected everyone's movies for season 6. Not only that, but there is not clear answer on how many movies made it into this season. Though we won't know who will reign supreme just yet, the trailer kickoff episode shines a small light on things to come.

Jordan and Brooke are joined by sibling of the pod (and noted The Eagle fan) Rette Solomon for the greatest heist in human history. We run down the sizzling eye contact chemistry between Clooney & Pitt (don't deny it), crucial elements of any great heist movie, the pros of Damon's glasses and the cons of Cheadle's accent, and just how many banger lines can fit into 2 hours. Plus, stick around for a VERY special gift for the pod from Rette :)

Jordan and Brooke are rejoined by film and TV professor Kyle Stevens for Mike Nichols' 1996 masterpiece. Is this the best ratio of jokes per minute ever put to screen? How is every performance so pitch-perfect? How did Nichols & May's backgrounds inform the American adaptation? And why wasn't Nathan Lane immediately given an Oscar for this?

Jordan and Brooke are joined by Phil Iscove (Podcast Like It's 1992) for this 2001 underrated masterpiece, packed with quality pop songs, aggressively Y2K outfits, and the best use of product placement...ever? We dig into directors Deborah Kaplan & Harry Elfont's careers, bisexual icon Alan Cumming, and why this is a film for the girls, gay and theys (and therefore a box office flop, tragically...).

Jordan and Brooke are joined by writer, podcaster, and LOVER OF CINEMA Emily St. James for a great film made by a great guy. Listen along as we become "Sammy Fabelman is a queer icon" truthers, dissect this film as a pushback against traditional American ideals, talk the instant camp (and camping) classic that is Michelle Williams' performance and, as always, have a Taylor Swift sidebar.

Jordan and Brooke are rejoined by fellow Channing Tatum enthusiast Fran Hoepfner for Mike Lane's "final tease." How does this film stack up to the magic of XXL? Are we in a new era of chill Soderbergh? How delightfully unhinged is Salma Hayek in this? And how the HELL does Channing Tatum manage to do all of that?

We invite Griffin Newman (of Blank Check fame) on for a mini with an excess of premises. Is it about Griffin addressing the nation? Is it a pop quiz? Is it a quiz GAME? Is it about A Gnome Named Gnorm? Is it another of Stu's Flop House spinoffs in his increasingly large Flop Podcastic Universe? Who knows? The important thing is, WE had fun.

Watch Griffin as an animated chipmunk in the upcoming Disney+ movie, Disenchanted!

Jordan and Brooke are rejoined by entertainment writer Brianna Zigler (Paste Magazine) to discuss Paul Verhoeven's 1992 iconic erotic thriller. This movie has everything: extremely valid controveries, extremely ludicrous controversies, the line "magna cum laude pussy," three (3!) queer lead characters, and Michael Douglas wearing a v-neck sweater to the club. Plus, our takes on the modern state of erotic thrillers, the power of on-screen sexuality, and how bady we'd like a Sharon Stone renaissance.

Jordan and Brooke are rejoined by writer Emma Stefansky for this bittersweet entry in the Fast franchise that made us all cry like babies. But there's Dwayne Johnson flexing out of a cast to make up for it. We talk James Wan's box office bonafides, the incredible Dubai "dress transition" (you know the one), fighting with your car as an extension of yourself, and the series' wonderful send-off to Paul Walker. Plus, once again, Jordan proposes including Tom Cruise in this franchise by any means necessary.

Jordan and Brooke are joined by filmmaker and returning guest Patrick Willems to discuss the F&F fan favorite (in another monster sized episode, of course) – which just proves that all franchises should have a "heist" entry. The squad discuss what happened to the Rock's sweat levels over time, if we can talk Tom Cruise into a Mission: Impossible crossover, the great F&F timeline rejigger, practical effects that include dragging a real-life safe through city streets, and the fact that Jordan actually watched the 2001 film "Swordfish."

Jordan and Brooke reunite with Angela Ferraguto for 1997's "worst comic book movie ever," aka a very colorful, fun and dynamic piece of superhero media! We talk cast & critical reception, Joel Schumacher's interpretation of the classic Batman gay subtext, Uma Thurman in a campy drag performance, HBO Max's "Harley Quinn" (obviously), and all those freeeeeeeze puns.

We'll talk porch movies, James Dean, leather jackets, drag racing, Nicholas Ray, Natalie Wood, Sal Mineo, and grenades. Yes, that's right, grenades.

Jordan and Brooke are joined by returning guest and comedian Avery Edison for a very special episode – our first indie film! Our Wachowskis month just wouldn't feel complete without a discussion on the sex, crime, cinematography and pacing of one of our best neo-noirs. Listen in as Jordan praises a young Christopher Meloni, Brooke unsurprisingly thirsts over Gina Gershon, and Avery absolutely bodies a Jennifer Tilly impression. Plus, an essential series of promos for "No Kidding? Me Too!"

Jordan and Brooke are joined by Jackson McHenry (Vulture, New York Magazine) for the Wachowskis' 2015 space opera. How did Eddie Redmayne possibly conceieve of this (iconic) performance? Has this weird movie always had its fans? How does behind the scenes representation translate to a largely straight on-screen story? And where do we get our hands on a pair of Channing's amazing moon boots?
