Politics and Religion. We’re not supposed to talk about that, right? Wrong! We only say that nowadays because the loudest, most extreme voices have taken over the whole conversation. Well, we‘re taking some of that space back! If you’re dying for some dialogue instead of all the yelling; if you know it’s okay to have differences without having to hate each other; if you believe politics and religion are too important to let ”the screamers” drown out the rest of us and would love some engaging, provocative and fun conversations about this stuff, then ”Talkin‘ Politics & Religion Without Killin‘ Each Other” is for you!

It's a story as old as time. There's a scene see, and it's got a big dog who rules the roost, see! Oh but who's that? Well that, my friend, is the "kid" and he's coming up fast on the outside. He's coming in hot - maybe a little too hot and he's itchin' for a fight. But there's just one little problem see, maybe he's just like his father or maybe he's just like his mother or maybe he's a little like both of them! Who knows? I'm not a licensed therapist. But we do know this, he's never satisfied and that's the fuel that drives him. Like a Corvette. A red one. A little one. So what to do? I'll tell you what. Put on some leather, some spandex, studs, an earring, a little eye shadow, some pancake, a bit of eye liner and you just effin' rock. You rock harder that you ever did in your worthless life - and maybe pause for a soulful ballad or two - and you get the girl, you get the gig, you get the brass ring and you just stand there laughing in the motherfreakin' purple rain! Yes, you do.

Who Asked For This Anyway?

Imagine running toward a tornado? Who would do such a thing? Helen Hunt and Bil Paxton that's who! They're insane! This movie is insane! I may be insane! Who knows? In any case, join a group of Long Island potatoes as they get together and talk about this insane movie.

If you're bored and feel the need for a bunch of complete dunderheads to tell you why the Godfather was a good movie, boy have we got a podcast for you!
A bunch of idiots talk about the 1993 movie where a John Malkovich dummy is thrown down an elevator shaft and Clint Eastwood harasses Rene Russo. Oh and, spoiler alert, he saves the president too!

Who Asked For This Anyway?

Today’s pod features The Fugitive, a 1993 movie staring Joe Pantoliano. In a tale as old as time a prominent vascular surgeon, Richard Kimble, is framed for the murder of his wife. He didn’t do it but he goes to prison anyway while the real killer goes free! Then he escapes, staying one step ahead of the Feds (one of whom has a pony tail) all the while looking for the one armed man: the real killer. Will he elude them long enough to prove his innocence? It’s a real nail biter and still holds up today. In a stark contrast, the usual gang of WAFTA idiots - plus pod guest Brett B - drone on and on about it in a non suspenseful way, and never once mention the pony tail. Also starring Harrison Ford and Tommy Lee Jones.…

Sometimes a movie comes along that is both genre-defying and era-defining. Cabin Boy is not one of those movies but it’s weird and we love it. A tale of men, the sea, other men and one very special fancy lad who seeks adventure and boy does he find it. “Hey, would you like to buy a monkey?”

Grease was a huge blockbuster movie and it made John Travolta and Olivia Newton-John huge stars and sold millions of tickets. Then the powers that be decided to make Grease 2 - without them! And it sold tickets. And yet I've heard that some people prefer the latter. Those people are insane. Enjoy!

It's the 35th anniversary of the release of Jaws (someone check my math but I think I'm right) and this is a very special edition of WAFTA! Now we've said this before! And we've put exclamation points at the end of our sentences to make them seem important! But this is different! This is important! You know how they have shark week on the TV?! Well, this is the reason they have it! Sharks are scary, sharks are mean, and sharks are box office! And we're gonna need a bigger pod!…
Hey! So one day you're cruising down the Sunset Strip three and three quarter sheets to the wind, crawling from the wreckage into another brand new Lambo and the next you're stuck in group home with a bunch of washed up have beens and never wases ... wait is that Flava Flav? No? Then who ... oh man, he did not age well. At least I looked after myself. Who the eff am I kidding? Whatever, at least it's a decent payday... burp.…

Just another edition Who Asked For This Anyway? Think again, this one is kinda special, it’s our twentieth pod and you know what that means - - no one has stopped us, yet. Hooray! Today's pod is Trading Places the eighties hit comedy starring Eddie Murphy and Dan Ackroyd. The plot?, A couple of old rich white guys mess around with other peoples’ lives for their own amusement! But as we all know - at least in this alternate universe - payback is a bitch.…
Have you ever wondered who was better: Journey or Survivor? Yes of course you haven't, you're normal - but believe it or not some people do. And so, for that select few (emphasis on "few") we're attempting to answer this timely issue with our usual wit, wisdom and verbal pyrotechnics ("usual" in this case meaning "very little"). Coming soon: Apples verses Oranges - spoiler alert it's Cherries.…

Sometimes a picture is worth a thousand words ... uh ... ummmm. Okay, fine. First, in Rocky, Rocky overcomes tremendous odds and takes a beating from Apollo Creed losing a split decision and possibly suffering traumatic brain injury. That last bit is mere speculation on my part. In Rocky II, much the same happens - including the apparent brain injury - but this time Rocky wins. The producers of both movies also win-sans the brain injury - by making a lot of money. So naturally, here comes Rocky III. This time, in a nod to Bergman, Rocky's biggest opponent is himself and his place in a world where God is silent and Mister T is loud. Rocky spends much of the first have of the film wandering through his own personal Gethsemane pleading with Mickey to stay with him whilst being tormented by T (Clubber Lang), "Balboa, your family doin' real nice, ain't it? You call yourself a fighter? Prove it now. Gimme that same chance!" Rocky ends up fighting Clubber not once but twice and both gives and receives a tremendous beating, possibly - and again this is speculation - further exacerbating his traumatic brain injury. He also engages in water sports and horseplay with Apollo, and as a reward, is gifted by Apollo with a pair his used boxing trunks. Triumph and self redemption can't be far away, or can they?…
A very heartfelt and completely unsolicited tribute from the good folks at WAFTA all about the time they encountered the man, the myth, the mountain of human flesh known to the world as King Kong Bundy.
Okay, it's not really an hour but you listen dirtbag, you don't know who you're dealing with! Not to worry, we do! FOP (Friend of the Pod and yes I know that defeats the point of using acronyms and this is a really boring digression and I'm truly sorry for that, where was I?)Brett Butler(he originally spelled it "Bret" according to reliable sources that we can't vouch for) calls in to discuss the Neeson brand. He has a very particular set of skills, some rather unsavory skeletons in his closet (to mix a metaphore)and has a somewhat tarnished reputation of late. Seriously, you don't know who you're dealing with!…
When you've got Burt Reynolds(I've heard he originally spelled it "Bert") questions, who you gonna call? Doug McInnis! Who the eff is that? Well, he's just a simple country lawyer, father of five and to be honest, a bit of a rebel. First in his class and last to leave the party. Get it? Works hard and plays hard. And what does all this have to do with ol' Burt? Not much really but ol' Doug has a 'stash (at least that's what we've heard) and he's not only full up on all that legal law stuff but an authority on all things Reynolds. The defense calls its expert witness and Burt authority DMC. Case is closed!…
