Ep 154 | Taxi: "The Great Race"
26 JUL 2024 · The Tubers hop back into Taxi once more to round out their coverage of one of network TV's saddest and dirtiest sitcoms. This week, Alex and Louie engage in a cab battle for the ages, one that threatens to shred the fabric of life itself (for Elaine, at least)
Brian quizzes Spencer and Van about their knowledge of taxi-based entertainments in between bouts of admiring Danny DeVito. Van provides some less-than-thrilling examples of comedian Jan Murray's work. Spencer brings the BTBs much closer to the present day with his new show pick. It's an episode so good you might not even notice if your cab driver circles your destination twice while you're listening!
Ep 153 | Taxi: "Reverend Jim: A Space Odyssey"
19 JUL 2024 · With the Motion Picture Men safely locked away in their gross movie cellar for another year, the Boob Tube Boys return to talk about the classic '70s sitcom Taxi, a show stuffed with comedy legends playing lovable losers
While Taxi was a staple of Brian's childhood viewing diet, Spencer and Van were unfamiliar until this very week. The trio talk about the show's historic fingerprint, the allure of grimy old New York, and the episode that cemented Christopher Lloyd as a cast member. Hail a cab and tell the driver your destination is Boob Tube Boys! They'll figure out what you mean eventually
Ep 152 | Fateful Findings: Part 2
12 JUL 2024 · The Motion Picture Men return for the final half of Neil Breen's masterpiece hit Fateful Findings, and one might say it's fate that you're here listening right now...
At the end of Part 1 we found out that Dylan, the magical grandma-man played by Breen, is not at all writing his second hit novel and is instead working on stealing secret government and corporate secrets. Unfortunatly for him it seems like everyone in his life is currently having personal problems. There's Amy and Jim, his best friends who are busy hating each other in a loveless marriage, and also his girlfriend Emily who has developed a terrible pill addiction!
In theory it's up to Dylan to solve all these issues, but what actually happens is he ignores them and everyone suffers because of it. But don't worry, here's his old love interest! Just in time to replace his dead girlfriend! Seriously, listen to this episode because this movie is WILD
Ep 151 | Fateful Findings: Part 1
5 JUL 2024 · The Motion Picture Men wrap up their 2024 with a look at Neil Breen's Fateful Findings, the movie that boldly takes a stand against secret government and corporate secrets
Van's choice for MPM film is one of the darlings of the "so bad it's good" B-movie industry and it starts off with a literal bang as Dylan (played by Breen himself) is mowed down by a Rolls Royce in the middle of a crosswalk. But mystical powers that aren't ever actually explained allow Dylan to heal almost immediately and he winds up doing the deed while covered in bloody bandages in the shower. Let's just say there's a lot to unpack here, and you'd better put on some gloves before doing so
Ep 150 | Miami Connection: Part 2
28 JUN 2024 · Raise your hand if you're a tough guy. Ok... good, good. Now everyone who didn't raise thier hand, please leave the podcast (we're kidding, please don't ever leave us) because today we're wrapping up coverage of the delicious wad of 1980s cheese that is Miami Connection!
When we last left off there was a vague conflict between band and group of ninjas (you know, that old chestnut), and today there's going to be even more vague conflict between band and ninjas. Things come to a head when Jeff, the bearded bad guy, finally has enough of Dragon Sound's antics and demands the group of college-going orphan musicians meet his gang in the old abandoned railroad yard to settle this once and for all...
Bonus: Real or Fake Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Villains
23 JUN 2024 · Oops!
Van lost a hard drive and many hours worth of work this week so Miami Connection: Part 2 is not ready for release! But to make up for it, we're putting our Patreon bonus video involving the TMNTs up for free on our regular channel!
In this episode Van quizzes Brian and Spencer on various villains from throughout the nearly 40 year run of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, asking them if the villain presented is a real TMNT character or something Van made up. You can even play along! For example, is The Axe-olotl a real villain? Do you at least get the joke? Cause it's "axe" combined with "axolotl" the weird Australian salamander thing
Whatever. Just listen in
Ep 149 | Miami Connection: Part 1
14 JUN 2024 · Ninjas! Bikers! Orphans! Hit songs!
Most movies give you only one, two, or possibly three of the above, but only one film created in human history has the chutzpah to cram all FOUR of them in plus a lot of other meaningless stuff. That film is the subject of today's Motion Picture Men episode, the hit 1980s action flick Miami Connection
In part 1 of 2 the former BTBs go through the cast of this film, none of which have ever worked in Hollywood before or since its release. They also talk the cult hit's rediscovery in the aughts, producer/director/actor/Taekwondo black belt Y.K. Kim's unintelligible but heartfelt dialogue, and of course dive into the first half of the movie, which is a delightful romp through Florida
Ep 148 | Online (2013): Part 2
7 JUN 2024 · This week, the Motion Picture Men bring you the breathtaking conclusion of Online (2013), a film that boasts an empty kitchen island as one of its main set pieces. Will John's deceitful ways come back to haunt him, or will he right the ship in time to rescue the marriage he doesn't care about?Â
Brian, Van, and Spencer talk about the movie's wild misunderstanding of human life, the world's weirdest business meeting, and a private investigator who should have been the main character. Later, Spencer introduces a much different movie for the podcast's next round as the Motion Picture Men!
Ep 147 | Online (2013): Part 1
31 MAY 2024 · The Boob Tube Boys have again stumbled into a magical abandoned movie theater and emerged as the Motion Picture Men! Van, Brian, and Spencer often watch films of questionable quality together; why not join them? Up first is Online (2013), an evangelical tale of temptation, technology, and fake accents
John's ex-girlfriend Adrianna is back in town, and when she messages him on something called http://socialfriendpages.com/, he immediately struggles to remain faithful in his marriage. Will John honor his marriage? Will he land a big cosmetics client despite a total lack of business acumen? The fellas have fun with this one, and they'll be back for part two next week!
Ep 146 | TMNT: "Corporate Raiders from Dimension X" and "Leatherhead Meets the Rat King"
24 MAY 2024 · The BTBs make a return trip to the world of their childhood as they cover two more episodes of the 1987 Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles cartoon. They'll encounter several notable characters along the way including the return of Leatherhead, the wisecracking, cajun stereotype of an alligator. But there's more than that as we also find hockey mask wearing vigilante Casey Jones (who just likes to break things) and the mysterious (and filthy) Rat King!
So put on your colorful bandana, whip out your various weapons, eat a whole pizza, and tune in for a wild green ride
