Y’all, it’s finally time…Paul and Erika are watching Can’t Hardly Wait, a film about a high school graduation released the very same year that your hosts graduated high school! We like to think that the hosts have aged beautifully, but how about this movie? The jury is out, the opinions are flying, and your hosts are headed out on vacation after th…

The year is 1986, the film is Rob Reiner’s Stand By Me, and the hosts are crying (again). Seriously, are Erika and Paul crying a lot more lately? Do they both need to toughen up, or should they be celebrated for letting their emotions run so freely? In any case, enjoy this episode on the movie that gave us Jerry O’Connell, Corey Feldman, Wil Wheato…

We asked for summer vacation movies, and y’all answered, and y’all agreed on one film and one film only. Paul and Erika are nothing if not eager to please their listeners, so they are diving into the Carl-Reiner-directed, Mark-Harmon-starring, reality-defying production that is 1987’s Summer School! You can follow That Aged Well on Twitter (@ThatAg…

It’s August, and all August That Aged Well is taking on Summer Vacation movies! Erika and Paul kick it off with Nancy Meyers’ 1998 remake The Parent Trap, which introduced the world to Lindsay Lohan. Nay, it introduced the world to Lindsays Lohan! Both Lindsays, along with Dennis Quaid, Natasha Richardson, and two of the best staff members in cinem…

It’s the finale of Action July and we are celebrating by revisiting the oeuvre of Arnold Schwarzegger! Sure, Kindergarten Cop is a film that does not understand how literally anything works, but is that a feature or a bug? Listen and find out! You can follow That Aged Well on Twitter (@ThatAgedWellPod), Instagram (@ThatAgedWell), Threads (@ThatAged…

We’ve done Die Hard, we’ve done Speed, aka Die Hard on a bus...it’s time to take a gander at Air Force One, aka Die Head on a plane! As always, opinions are flying left, right, and center, but don’t worry…there’s also time for Paul and Erika to pitch a way to make this movie 8,000 times better by mashing it up with another 90s classic! You can foll…

Warning: probably not a good episode to listen to while hungry, particularly if you enjoy Chinese cuisine. But, hey, you do you! Action July carries on with 1998/s buddy cop comedy adventure Rush Hour! We’ve got Jackie Chan! We’ve got Chris Tucker! We’ve got Tom Wilkinson! Bet you already know who the villain is, even if you’ve never seen the film!…

OMG, have you all seen this movie?? Paul and Erika can barely contain their excitement talking about 1979’s The Warriors, and that’s before they even stumble across an unexpected Mercedes Ruehl cameo! Cue up your podcatcher and get into this cult classic with us! You can follow That Aged Well on Twitter (@ThatAgedWellPod), Instagram (@ThatAgedWell)…

Did you all know that a sequel to this movie is coming out in like two weeks?? Nothing to do with the timing here, promise! In any case, Erika and Paul leave Theater Month behind to do the opposite…Action Month! And they’re kicking it off with 1996’s Twister, starring Helen Hunt, Bill Paxton, Jami Gertz, and Lois Smith. Look at all those ladies on …

Moulin Rouge! - Depression Beards, Parisian Geography & a Huge Talent : Does anything do more for a movie title than an exclamation point? This is not your parents’ Moulin Rouge…this is Baz Luhrmann’s MOULIN ROUGE! The patrons have spoken, so Paul and Erika are rounding out this month-long theatrical celebration by discussing 2001’s instant classic…

Theater Month continues with 1988’s Hairspray, and this time both Erika and Paul actually saw the musical that grew from it! They’re here to take you through the John Waters classic, and to celebrate Ricki Lake, Divine, and, of course, early aughts pop princess Vitamin C…not sure why the “Graduation” singer is being mentioned? Listen and find out! …

We were in 1992 last week, and we’re in 1992 again as we talk about Whoopi Goldberg’s comedy classic Sister Act! While neither Paul nor Erika actually saw Sister Act The Musical, it nevertheless exists and so this movie qualifies for the theme this month! Come remember the good times, and we promise we’ll do Sister Act 2 at some point as well…we kn…

Happy Tony Award Season to all who celebrate (and those who don’t, um…don’t worry, it’s only for June)! Erika and Paul kick off a month-long fete of the theatre with 1992’s Newsies, aka the film that introduced a generation to Christian Bale (despite last week’s episode, this is not a Christian Bale podcast). Come sing along as That Aged Well takes…

The patrons have spoken and so Paul and Erika watched 2000’s American Psycho, aka the film that made Christian Bale! It’s also a film Paul swore he would never watch, then adjusted that vow to would never watch outside of October, but here we are in May and he watched American Psycho…how many Le Creuset’s were thrown at the TV? Listen and find out!…

Would you believe…WOULD YOU BELIEVE that Erika and Paul have never talked through a Barbra Streisand movie on this show?? Incredible! It’s so wild they had to call in an expert, and are joined by Tom Zohar (@TomZohar on Twitter, we will never call it that other thing, go follow him!) who has done the work on Barbra, and is here to answer all of our…

It’s been a minute since That Aged Well has had the pleasure of watching Whoopi Goldberg…so long, in fact, that Paul and Erika almost forgot what a movie star she is! Luckily, Penny Marshall didn’t forget and cast her in the 1986 spy romp Jumpin’ Jack Flash. Your hosts are here to not only take you through this movie, but also offer recommendations…

It’s May, That Aged Well is celebrating women directors, and Erika and Paul kick things off with a bang as they talk about 1999’s seminal action flick The Matrix, directed by the Wachowskis! Topics include penis pumps, dusters, the 90’s obsession with computer hackers, and, of course, birthing videos…you won’t want to miss this one! You can follow …

Foolish April comes to an end with an absolute banger: the Coen Brothers’ 1987 comic masterpiece Raising Arizona!

You can follow That Aged Well on Twitter (@ThatAgedWellPod), Instagram (@T…

Okay, class, can everyone who has heard of the 1986 classic Solarbabies please raise their hand? No one? What if we told you it stars Jason Patric, Jami Gertz, and Adrian Pasdar? Still no? How about the fact that it has more roller skating than Xanadu? Wow, goose eggs? Well, don’t worry, Erika and Paul are here to take you through one of the more w…

Foolish April has given us quite the streak with The Muppet Show and Drop Dead Fred…next up is Mel Brooks’ spoof Robin Hood: Men In Tights! The film is foolish, no doubt, but will it inspire the love from Paul and Erika that those previous projects did? Or was Foolish April flying just a little too close to the sun? You can follow That Aged Well on…

Foolish April barrels on with our most requested movie (so far), 1991’s Drop Dead Fred! A famous flop, a rumored disaster, an object of derision…but how will Erika and Paul feel about it? Will this be one where they get out their knives and hack it apart? Or a Four Weddings and A Funeral situation where they disagree? Or maybe…just maybe…will they …

It’s April Fool’s Day, and there are five Mondays in April, so we’re doing something a little different this week: The Muppet Show! Specifically the Muppet Show with one Miss Liza Minnelli.

What could possibly go wrong?? You can follow That Aged Well on Twit…

It’s the third week of Murder Mystery March and it’s the third week where…maybe this movie isn’t so much a murder mystery? No matter, Erika and Paul watched 1997’s L.A. Confidential and in between marveling over all the Australian actors in this film, they take some time to get into how well it’s aged! You can follow That Aged Well on Twitter (@Tha…

It’s still January, so we’re still doing 2004 movies, and Erika and Paul needed something “action-y.” So where did they turn? They turned, of course, to Tom Cruise.

Okay, we know we said no episode this week. Just a little tidbit to keep you entertained while sipping cocoa, or waiting for Chinese food, or going to work! Thanks for listening!!By That Aged Well Podcast

Can you believe we’ve NEVER done a Muppet movie on That Aged Well? Given the consistent presence of Miss Piggy, it seems impossible (if you’d like to know the genesis of that, you can go listen to our episode on The Fifth Element), but the time is finally here! Paul and Erika are going through The Muppet Christmas Carol and if you think Miss Piggy …

Is this a holiday movie? Erika insists yes, so off we go!

Welcome back and thank you for being a friend!
