Tripp and Andrew Laino have been watching movies together since 1992, and making fun of them together since 1999, when a rainy afternoon of babysitting turned into 8 hours of cheesy science fiction and jokes. Raised on a strict diet of 80s movies, the pair have an undying love for the decade and all of the weird, wonderful cinema therein, despite barely being there for it. Every other week (since 2014) they dissect a movie and the bizarre cinema quirks of 30-odd years ago.

Mama mia, 300 episodes! Insane to have been doing this for 11 years and 300+ episodes. Thank you all for listening!
We had to do a BIG one for this, and what better re-visit than John Hughes' coming-of-age classic? This is a movie with some *electric* performances, but oof-a-doof some rough moments.
Thank you for your support and bearing with our offseason. As we said on this episode, we’re going to a new schedule: the 1st of the month on Patreon for $5 and up members, and the 15th hereon the main feed.
