Is It for Reel

IIFR E73: You‘ve Got Mail

Our busy podders stopped scrolling their insta long enough to check out the internet when it was just a baby.  That's right they watched You've Got Mail.  Will the power of love withstand the iron jaws of  big business, can Tom Hanks make stalking look playful, is there nothing that a Harry Nilsson song about puppies can't fix?  Listen to find out.  F-O-X!!!!!

IIFR E72: Die Hard

When the weather outside is frightful, watch Die Hard.  Full stop.  So that's what our brave podders did.  Head on over to Sock-it-to-me plaza, avoid the elevators (they're death traps), and be sure to be specific in what type of coke you want! Listen to find out if this movie is truly all about batteries, why bears are obsessed with detonators, and what it means for Amelia Bedelia to actually be April O'Neil. Hans!!!!!!!

 

For the final recap skip ahead to 1 hour 8 minutes 30 seconds

IIFR E71: Planes, Trains, and Automobiles

Because our podders forgot how to travel like everyone else, they decided to get a refresher, 80's style!  That's right, we watched Planes, Trains, and Automobiles.  So throw a hypoallergenic pillow in a trunk, review the plane etiquette manual, and never take out your frustrations on the friendly travel professionals (they don't deserve it and wield ungodly power).   Don't be a chowderhead and Happy Holidays!!!! 

Final recap starts at 1 hour and 6 minutes

IIFR E70: The Big Chill

I mean, it's starting to get chilly out so our Podcaster's decided to watch the classic disaster movie, The Big Chill.  Will they find stories of avalanches, ice storms, or the cold unforgiving outer space?  Nay, this is the cold embrace of adulthood!  Oh the horror!!! So grab your best mix tape, your sexiest bathrobe, and a guidebook on how to make a baby.  Get chilly, y'all!!!

IIFR E69: Dante‘s Peak

As the great Jimmy Buffet once said, "I don't know where I'm a gonna go when the volcano blow".  Well our brave podders tried to answer this question by watching Dante's Peak!  So get ready for paper mâché architecture, body bag flirting, and every single one of your phobias. "Lava come down soft and hot. You better lava me now or lava me not."  Also, the answer is fishing.

IIFR E68: Major League

In lieu of a parade for the Braves, our podders decided to celebrate the World Series win by watching Major League.  While the details are different, like any good sports movie, the story beats never change.  You know... plucky underdogs, sexual harassment, casual racism, voodoo, light stalking, and American Express commercials.  So join the team and find out about the inner meaning of Brocktoon and the dating habits of the Baltimore Colts.  Wild Thing!!!!!

IIFR E67: Practical Magic

It's Halloween, so our brave podders put caution to the wind and watched Practical Magic.  So bust out your biggest blenders, check out zillow listings where they don't stone witches, and be sure to watch some CSI before embarking on a murder. Oh and remember, sisters!!!!

IIFR E66: Dune

Our brave podders are back and they’re all hopped up on the spice mélange.  That’s right we watched Dune. Ya, that's right, 1984 Dune.  So who’s ready to get weird!!! Bring along your eyebrow combs, your cat milking machines, oh and don't forget your Sting Bikini.  And be sure you've got that whispery inner monologue set to constant. It's Dune, y'all!!!!

IIFR E65: Father of The Bride

Wedding bells are in the air so our Podders followed suit and watched Father of The Bride.  Birdezilla vs. Mothra wasn't available.  So get your swans ready, download Rosetta Stone for whatever language Franck speaks, and buy stock in whoever makes smoking jackets.  Congrats B&G!!!!!!

IIFR E64: Heavyweights

Tired of this back to school BS, our podders returned to Summer Camp and watched Heavyweights.  So duct tape your candy around your waste (don't forget your deli meat), lift those devil logs, and get on the scale... GET OFF THE SCALE!!!!!  Also , don't get us started about the merits of CrossFit vs. jumping on the blob. Too late.
