Things are heating up at PCY in this episode. First we break down the 1983 classic that propelled Tom Cruise to stardom: Risky Business.

This is a fun one sure t…

It's time to wrap up Milestone Month, and we have a doozy of a movie for the occasion. Dave is still with us, and this film had a big impact on him and Brad. The movie is the 1996 thriller Fear starring a young Mark Wahlberg and Reese Witherspoon. Cringy, campy, and a little crazy, this movie was a wild time ripe for discussion. We close things out…

Giff’s choice, Road House, is our topic for part 3 of 1989. Coming in just before the decade ended, this was one of the most ‘80’s of all ‘80’s movies. Learn about great kill scenes, professional coolers, and monster trucks for everyday use. Road House is ludicrous and it never slows down. It is a time capsule of ‘80’s excess and toxic masculinity.…

"When you make love, do you look in your mirror?" It's an age-old question. But it's just one of the many topics addressed in Def Leppard's seminal album Hysteria. Giff couldn't get enough of this classic in 1987, and he still can't now. Does it hold up for Brad and Pete? What about the few songs that weren't hits? How does it compare to Pyromania?…
