    2026/03/30

    "First prize at the World Series of Podcasts is a million bucks. Does it have my name on it? I don't know. But, I'm gonna find out" - Phil is down to the felt as he takes 1998's Rounders Off the Shelf this week. Dave is a little less than excited to hear John Malkovich's performance as KGB and questions how Phil can tolerate his accent considering his opinion of Damon's last week. Meanwhile, Phil and Dave fight over Jo's reactions and Phil explains how this movie continues to be both watchable and ridiculous in equal measure. He struggles to determine if it stays on the shelf.

    2026/03/23

    "Only you would carry a stupid magnet through the desert. I can use it to make a podcast" - We talk dangers and legends as Dave takes 2016's "The Great Wall" off the shelf this week. Phil has never seen it and ultimately wonders why it was ever made. He wonders why so many talented actors choose to use an accent they clearly can't do. Dave marvels at the action and finds the banter between the two leads to be humorous enough to keep the mood light but is so enamoured of Commander Lin, Phil can't trust anything he says. There is a great wall between the two opinions on this one.

  • 1988's Eight Men Out
    2026/03/16

    "If you don't play the podcast, you're a sap." - It's spring training and Phil takes 1988's Eight Men Out off the shelf this week. Dave remembers seeing this movie one other time but is stunned by the amount of 2nd tier actors in the cast. He marvels at an opportunity to talk about John Mahoney and is impressed that John Sayles, writes, directs, acts and sings in the film. Phil remembers loving this from the first time he watched it and thinks it may be the best cast of any movie we've done. He is particularly impressed by David Strathairn, as usual. Later, we test the theory that a movie "based" on a true story with embellishments makes the movie less appealing.

    "Podcasts. Nothing has caused the human race so much trouble as podcasts." - We look out on the courtyard as Phil takes 1954's Rear Window off the shelf this week. Dave had never seen it but was eager to watch our first Hitchcock movie and the humbler returns. He doesn't quite understand how this movie has such a high rating. Luckily, Phil is there to remind him that its the excellent screenplay, the great direction and excellent performances. A great opportunity for Phil to dust off his Jimmy Stewart impression for all to hear.

    2026/02/23

    "I have reached six of the seven podcasts. So now of course I must reach the seventh." - A February deep Freeze is in store as Dave takes 2015's Everest off the shelf this week.

Dave had never seen it either but felt the intense weather conditions was well delivered by the film maker. Phil managed to dig deeper into the story and watched a few other movies about the same subject matter. Both hosts agree that this is better than they thought it would be.

  • 1993's Dave
    2026/02/16

    "And we're walking, and we're walking, and we're podcasting" - Back to the White House as Phil takes 1993's Dave off the shelf this week. David relives his pain that Dave gave upon it's release in `93 but works through it and finds the movie and performances to be entertaining. Phil finds the movie to be more of a Frank Capra style comedy and finds the general vibe to be that of a sweet romantic comedy. A movie that both hosts agree that if you don't buy the premise the whole thing falls apart, luckily it keeps it light enough to not worry too much about that.
