Vin Diesel, Paul Walker, Dwayne Johnson and Michelle Rodriguez lead a cast of returning all-stars as the global blockbuster franchise built on speed delivers the biggest adrenaline rush yet. Hobbs (Johnson) has been tracking an organization of lethally skilled drivers, whose mastermind (Luke Evans) is aided by the love Dom (Diesel) thought was dead, Letty (Rodriguez). The only way to stop the criminal mercenaries from stealing a top secret weapon is to outmatch them at street level, so Hobbs ...

We're once again grabbing our uwabaki (more on that later) as we're joined by Matt Stuertz to talk about The Fast and the Furious: Tokyo Drift!

We've made our way to Tarpon Point for another Life in the Fast Lane, and we're wondering: where'd THESE guys come from?

Our next pit stop on the “planes, trains, but NO automobiles” lap is RRR, and we have to wonder: is this a Fast & Furious movie?

We talk about character parallels to the family, how this movie follows Chris Morga…
We're returning to Fast & Furious 6, which our guest Chrissy Shackelford (Last Week Tonight with John Oliver) calls "the quintessential Fast & Furious movie." (Also, in case you're wondering: Chrissy is doing *so* good. Thanks for asking.) After Joe explains Duck Dynasty, we uncover more terrible crazy credits, discuss Gisele's sacrifice (now that …
Gather round, family, and grab a seat, for it's time for you all to hear The Ballad of Jimbo's Shrimp Shack. After debating how to pluralize "Life in the Fast Lane," we dive right into 2 Fast 2 Furious (Minute 91), where Joe regales us with a wild Floridian tale. We work through a diverse array of Fast and Furious news, including an "explanation" f…
We're ass sliding our way back to the 1980s for our next pit stop and the best bicycle/BMX movie of all time: Rad! We talk about whether this is the most 1980s movie ever made, the fine work done by Vinegar Syndrome, and the movie's parallels to High School Musical. Joe pitches Rad: After Dark and has his Pittsburgh radar ding once again. We hear a…
We're headed back to Rio (for the first time in the Fast X era) to talk with Lisa Williams about the original Reyes in Fast Five! After covering more CrAzY cReDiTs, we dive into minutiae with Lisa.

We're hopping in Uncle Jakob's cannon car and picking up Jessica Collins, a.k.a. Montez, to talk about Fast X!

We get our final Montez Minute until Hobbs comes out and a…
We're kicking it WAY old school this week as Tobin Addington drops by to give us a little bit of film history as we discuss The Arrival of a Train at La Ciotat!

It’s probably our longest Life in the Fast Lane yet, but that’s because we’ve got a whole lot more Fast X to talk about!

We’re still riding the high of Fast X (in theaters now!), and we’re bringing in “resident historian” Mike Manzi (Uncle Francis’s Wine Cellar) to keep things going!

The road to Fast X continues (even though the movie is already here, shh) with the Jason Momoa-starring and directed (!) film Road to Paloma. After establishing our Fast X limbo, we talk about Momoa's history behind the camera and his sole goal in making this movie (which totally subverted our expectations). Joe notices a major Rocknection in Road …
At long last, Fast X is here. We saw it last night (and so did you), and now it's time to talk about it... in full spoiler-filled detail. We dive right into the discussion to talk all about "the end of the road" (even with a lot more road to come), Jason Momoa as Dante, Brie Larson as Tess, the connections to past movies, what's coming next, and mu…
Once again, our podcast title feels especially appropriate; we’ve seemingly waited forever for Fast X. At long last, it’s here! Go see it!

Now, we’re headed home (a quarter-mile at a time) with plans to record a spoiler-fil…
The wait is almost over, and Fast X is almost here. We’re taking a moment to get (even more) excited about the newest Fast & Furious movie!

The race toward Fast X continues as we take another Life in the Fast Lane pit stop in Return of the Lance! We’re still in our #FastX era, and our mailbag (plus Twitter threads) is basically all hype for the movie.

We're officially entering our Fast X interlude era and previewing Brie Larson's role of Tess in Right on Track, the 2003 Disney Channel Original Movie! We lament the lack of Brie Larson in this movie (oops), reflect on entertainment for kids, and explore the director's wild filmography. We also wonder, should we have covered this? Why is there so m…

We also discuss what we want …
We’ve only got a few Vin Diesel pit stops left this lap, and today’s takes us to a post-apocalyptic (?) wasteland (?) in Babylon A.D. We talk about the muddied behind-the-scenes backstory of this movie, Vin Diesel as “Toorop,” and the absolute lack of dedication this movie shows toward coherent world-building. We talk about the contention between V…
