Matthew Bok Doug Bertrand Podcasts

Hopefully the whole podcast is here. There were issues. It's been a hot minute since we had an overlong podcast. Matt finds religion. Someone finds a rocket. A new standard of beauty is defined. And nazis. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/mattanddoug/message

Close your eyes. Hum that familiar John Williams tune. Listen for the crack of the bullwhip. Then drop all that and get ready for a pale imitation. Sound clips from old VHS recordings that are over 30 years old. Matt's music choices are questioned, plus we completely forget a segment and have to backtrack. All this and more in this week's episode. …

Put your sunglasses on, spit out your gum and kick some ass. In a way this is a prima facie example of what this podcast is or should be. Talking about an 80s movie of questionable stature and riffing on other shit. Had an audio issue and Doug was a dick, but anyway...Matt as a ventriloquist? Also why Indigo is the most important color. --- Send in…

Guess who's back. Back again. Freddy's back. Tell a friend not to go to sleep... Not as long as usual. An entry intro a storied franchise that yields uneven results. Check for yourself. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/mattanddoug/message

After a brief hiatus we come back to tackle the deep issues: Sexism. Fidelity on deep space trips. Whether leather jackets are okay. We had some audio issues so if they're there, deal with it. All this and more.... --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/mattanddoug/message

Back at home and all the guests have left. Matt and Doug take a swing at their first (?) rated G film. Will the Muppets bring it home? Will the podcast be safe for work? Is Kermit a cuck? All this and more as we dip our toe into a universe that gave Matt buyer's remorse... --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/mattanddoug/message…

For the first time in 2022 we let a fox in the fully populated hen house and are rewarded with a nearly four and a half hour podcast. This is a big one. This is Die Hard, bitch! Is there any way that a seminal film from 1988 doesn't hold up? What is a wobbly H? What are the best healthcare options for the self employed? This and so much more... ---…

This ain't your parent Star Wars. It ain't Star Wars at all. Some magical connections of parallel thinking happen. Can a ballsack save a planet? A lot of Frankensteining in the middle of the episode, see if you can tell where. Our Xmas episode is announced and is the end of the podcast upon us. Listen to find out. --- Send in a voice message: https…

Bronson is back to kill more bad guys. Matt is back to kill more ear drums. Short podcast. Really short. Happy Thanksgiving y'all --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/mattanddoug/message

Matt is concussed and smells. Doug gets probed. We talk about being immortal. The show gets called out by a new listener. Absolutely no one will notice, but no lobby breaks in this film. Best high movie going experiences and other stuff are discussed along with actually talking about the movie. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/mattand…

Matt gets sad. Both Matt and Doug try to avoid caricatures though the movie leans into them. A decision is made about Star Wars films. All that and the realization that the show has come down to talking about the weather. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/mattanddoug/message

A sequel that isn't part of Matt's season of sequels. A precious. A movie that should stand the test of time. Does it? Matt continues to bitch about having to make glasses and Doug talks about someone getting all up in his ass. All this and much more in a podcast that is much shorter than expected. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/mat…

Bug killer and transponster by day, Hollywood hookers by night. Matt and Doug was through the filth of 80s Hollywood Blvd. to see if a hooker can reform her ways. A podcast that is on the shorter side, which is sad because it is disrespectful to the source material. Matt screws up. Matt deals with depression. Doug complains for about two hours. Osc…

Back to a regular movie and hopefully back to a sub four hour podcast. Can the greatest American hero carry a horror comedy? Does this movie have legs? Does Doug have a veto remaining? Will we ever get out of the clip segment at the beginning of the podcast? Listen and find out.... --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/mattanddoug/message…

After multiple weeks Doug returns to the fold and we discuss the final episode of the original trilogy. Will it hold up? Will they bring it? Will anybody be called a cuck? All that and more will be answered in a super sized episode. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/mattanddoug/message

Jen returns for the movie Doug said he would quit the podcast over Matt selecting. Matt laments how he is Duckie and Jen tells him to quit being a bitch. That, plus stories of high-school homecoming and prom as we revisit a classic Matt had never seen before. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/mattanddoug/message…

Is it an good movie? Is it a good sequel? Is it Eddie just being Eddie? None of these answers discount the others.

A tear jerker. A hopeful film. A Doug film. Like they say...it is what it is. Always --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/mattanddoug/message

This podcast is under two hours and like the movie it talks about, that time includes a lot of pad. Doug disappears at the end. See if you can tell. The movie, like the podcast is what it is and doesn't pretend to be anything else. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/mattanddoug/message

Season 8. By now you really don't care what is written here. A movie that tries to carry deep themes. A new segment is introduced. Doug's season of whatever the hell I feel like starts. Way longer than expected. Is it good? Only you can say. Take a listen... --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/mattanddoug/message…

You never forget your first piece. You also won't forget this tour de force of podcast mastery as Matt and Doug talk about coming of age, losing your V-card, and is it okay to not let someone know it's about time. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/mattanddoug/message

Our first (and possibly last) movie from the 50s. Def. a throwback film to a different age. What happens when women are brought aboard a sub? What happens when Matt can't get the hardware to work? All this and more...plus a disagreement (actually multiple at the end) as we go under the sea for: --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/mattand…

The GOAT. Nearly four hours. Empire. Nothing else needs to be said. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/mattanddoug/message

Matt and Doug transverse the difficult minefield of a movie that is both incredibly racist and at times very touching. Would the hot guy leave his hot girlfriend for a meh girl? Would the prom queen end up with the geek? What song will be ruined this week? You'll have to listen to find out. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/mattanddoug…

Matt and Doug reach around and try to find their way out of the swamp of podcasting madness as they take a deep dive in Doug's final season of war film from the 80s. Will anyone survive. Will their be banjos? Listen to the podcast with the most deleted audio of all podcast they've been done to date. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/ma…

Matt and Doug finally return to the podcast realm. They talk about the differences between men and women losing their virginity, Doug's sweater, Matt's underwear, Matt not understanding birth control. You know, the classics. A little rough around the edges since it's been a hot minute, but I think it scratches that itch. A not great film that has s…

It takes over a hundred movies, but we finally get to our first Spielberg film. And it is one of his lesser known films. That doesn't mean it is lesser quality. A young Christian Bale yells at the production staff in a World War II coming of age film. We're back post Covid and during Little League season. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor…

Anniversaries, aliens, birthdays, bad impressions, what more could you ask for? A strangely Arnold light Arnold movie as he flexes his muscles to become the movie star that was his destiny as we look at... --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/mattanddoug/message

Matt stinks...and not just in a podcast way. The guys go deep on a film with little depth and try to talk about stuff that can't be talked about today. Doug nurses a hangover and tries to power through. Plus Joyce Hyser was the shit back in the day. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/mattanddoug/message…

Doug's season of war continues. Matt actually knows something about WW2 that Doug doesn't. We talk about frozen asses. Really what more can you want from a podcast? --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/mattanddoug/message

Somehow the Star Wars podcasts have gone from 1:30 to 3:30. Take a deep dive into what is pretty much universally seen as the best of the Mouse House Star Wars films. Ethics of War. Getting Old. And a bunch of other crap. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/mattanddoug/message

Heathers. Uh, uh, Heathers. A brilliant film...or not. A movie with a lot depth and a lot to say...or not. It's a deep dive into high school, death, suicide, lamenting the loss of youth and a bunch of other crap. Warning this is very much a Matt podcast and is extremely clip heavy. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/mattanddoug/message…

Just cause you can't say it, doesn't mean you shouldn't watch it...or does it? This episode is all over the place and way longer than expected. Still, I think it has its moments. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/mattanddoug/message

Are you built for speed or built for the long haul? Matt and Doug look at the other Michael J Fox film from this time that isn't nearly as impactful as Back to the Future. Is it a good movie?

Lots of up an coming actors up and coming. When you reach adulthood it is time to put away childish things. Fortunately Matt and Doug haven't reached adulthood yet. A tour de force movie that is really solid across the board. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/mattanddoug/message

Take a look back at the innocence of mid America in the 50s, when the hair was greasy, the cars were metal, and the bushes were huge. This movie serves as a counterweight to the season of war, kind of mirroring the loss of innocence with the absence of innocence...or vice versa. All that plus a new segment is introduced as Matt and Doug take a look…

Doug's season of war starts. Matt's season of disappointment starts. Walken is back and so are the impressions. Plus we tackle some difficult and serious issues. It's weird. The first hour is not great, but we actually get into some deep and meaningful stuff beyond that. Push through the chaff to get to the wheat. Note: there are some audio issues,…
