The Harrison Marathon is a somewhat comprehensive exploration of Harrison Ford's illustrious movie career. Each episode hosts Eric Welch and Griffin Van Malssen dive into a specific movie in the Ford canon and try to unpack why they find the man so reliably entertaining and endlessly fascinating. Starring Eric and Griffin is the overall umbrella for this show. Make sure you go back in the feed and check out our Tom Cruise series, The Cruise Cruise!
