Matinee Monday: Mortal Kombat (w/ Cameron Esposito)

Sam Richardson (Veep, Detroiters) joins Paul, June, and Jason to discuss 1991’s Highlander II: The Quickening. They’ll talk about why there’s no need to see the first Highlander movie, Sean Connery trying on a suit, Highlander sex in the streets, the psychic cooking show, and much more. Plus, we get to the bottom of where Sean Connery’s walking around money came from and what exactly is the difference between a Highlander and an immortal. (Originally Released 01/20/2017)

This week, Paul, Jason, and Jessica St. Clair break down the inexplicable 1983 film, Surf II. Jason watched the director's cut and provided much-needed context to the film. Jessica describes why this movie made her sick, and Paul gets his “Big Nick” vibe on. We do want to be VERY clear; we will NOT be putting the lotion in the basket. Recorded live in Seattle at the Paramount Theater.

Are you listening to this podcast on a computer? If so, you could be a villain in this week’s film, Speed 2: Cruise Control! Comedy Bang Bang’s Scott Aukerman joins Paul, Jason, and June to lament the absence of Keanu Reeves and ask the age-old question, “Why weren’t Willem Dafoe’s leeches featured more in this film?!” (Originally Released 06/05/2012)

If you’ve ever roller-skated, then this movie is for you! Michaela Watkins (Hacks) joins Paul, June, and Jason to talk all about the Olivia Newton-John & Gene Kelly musical Xanadu. LIVE from Largo in LA, they cover everything from the opening dance montage where the muses come out of a mural portal, the animation sequence that was basically the sex scene, and Gene Kelly’s memory boner. Plus, we discover why Zeus has a British accent during audience Q&A! (Originally Released 01/30/2022)
