  • Furious 7 (Lap 15)
    Apr 29 2025
    Jordan Polan-Clarke returns to the show to talk about Furious 7 (and the narrative complexity added to the franchise by this movie)! After talking about how a Star Wars-esque scroll could work to abbreviate this film's opening, we look this film up on RunPee and wonder what Deckard has against hospitals and emergency wards. Jordan shares her favorite frame in this movie and her favorite shot in any movie. We ask: are we qualified to judge a Vin Diesel lookalike contest? Does an open road help you think? Where is Mando? We lament the women in this franchise, wonder who rebuilt 1327, and think about how Deckard gets from scene to scene. We discuss who would be the worst boss in this movie, how Furious 7 shows off an unusual Letty/Brian pairing, and how many characters in this film got concussions. Is Vin Diesel TOO comfortable as Dom in this movie? We try to count. Email us: family@cageclub.me Visit our Patreon page at patreon.com/2fast2forever. Show your support at the 2 Fast 2 Forever shop!

  • ha ha ha... how do i turn this thing off | Life in the Fast Lane #46
    Apr 22 2025
    It's time for another Fast Lane, and, you're not gonna believe this, but ha ha ha... how do i turn this thing off. We kick things off with Tokyo Drift's twelfth minute, including (possibly, unlikely) a new debate. It was a quiet couple of weeks for news, but we had plenty of VIN to Run, including: calculating Vin's payment-per-word for Groot as well as tracking his ongoing push for Dos Bandoleros. We come up with ways to get Randy Carter hired for Fast XI (or at least to get a P.G.A. credit on Dos Bandoleros). Will we ever see Mama Toretto? We get a new theory about the head of Eteon. Are we so out of touch? Or is it the kids who are wrong, at movie theaters? We receive some photos from Universal Studios that possibly offer a hint into cars in upcoming F&F films.

  • Timeline (2003)
    Apr 15 2025
    It's time to cover another Paul Walker movie we missed, this time with the help of Brian Rodriguez (Twilight Slumber Party): Timeline -- featuring Brian O'Conner in the middle ages! After discussing the adaptation debacle of Michael Crichton's novel, we talk about the Fastnections (Brian Tyler and... John Cena?) before diving into our frustrations with the film's plot. Namely: why are you sending seven idiots through a wormhole to rescue a single person? Brian compares this movie to Saving Private Ryan. We try to understand the rules of the wormhole. We lament a cool idea they touch on but don't explore and that Paul Walker basically always plays Brian. Could the Family survive in the 1300s? Brian promotes his new podcast.

  • Dos Bandoleros | Life in the Fast Lane #45
    Apr 8 2025
    It's an exciting time on 2 Fast 2 Forever, as Vin Diesel has teased a new short film, directed by him, which our community (shoutout Randy Carter) has dubbed Dos Bandoleros. Before we talk about what we think and hope that film will contain, we talk about the eleventh minute of Tokyo Drift, which brings past guest of the show Lynda Boyd into our minute-by-minute breakdown! We then pivot to Running the VIN, with a whopping ELEVEN Vins to run, including his pivot to a new focus. We review the (underwhelming) goofs from Tokyo Drift, talk about a big shakeup in our merch shop, and get reminded of who the Mayan Queen is. We talk about (with light to medium spoilers) Baby Invasion (55:30), The White Lotus s3 (58:30), and Severance s2 (1:02:50).

  • The Fast & The Furious: Tokyo Drift (Lap 15)
    Apr 1 2025
    We’re joined by Cody Brown (Studiohouse Designs) to talk about The Fast and the Furious: Tokyo Drift — and how it pushed him toward cars! In talking about Cody’s history with the franchise, we all share memories of bringing grandparents to movies they otherwise had no interest in. Cody explains why Suki is his favorite character and talks about what Tokyo Drift brought to the franchise that the first two films didn’t. We talk about the biggest Oops! in the movie (including a disgusting detail we never noticed before), whether this movie holds the franchise’s “family” pivot, and whether these movies are becoming more or less self-aware (or both at the same time, somehow?). Cody shares deep insights about the cars featured in the movie. We talk about conformity vs. non-conformity. Email us: family@cageclub.me Visit our Patreon page at patreon.com/2fast2forever.

  • The Mayan Queen and Scarlett | Life in the Fast Lane #44
    Mar 25 2025
    We're back with another Life in the Fast Lane, and this one is all about the Mayan Queen and Scarlett (whoever they may be). After a Tokyo Drift minute that teaches us a new word, we parse some likely false rumors for Fast 11 and look at the goofs from Fast & Furious 6, which includes an IMDb user bringing proof and facts to the world's longest runway. We wonder if we'll get a trailer for Fast 11 this lap, we open a great mailbag, and we get clarity on Samantha Vincent, p.g.a. Is Vin Diesel into crystals? We fill in Tej's backstory a bit and discussion a potential new time travel theory. Email us: family@cageclub.me Visit our Patreon page at patreon.com/2fast2forever.

  • Knockaround Guys (2001)
    Mar 18 2025
    Brian Rodriguez returns to the podcast to talk about Knockaround Guys -- and to tell the backstory behind one of our podcast network's great untold sagas. (This time, he's in front of the paywall -- and has to bite his tongue accordingly.) We talk about how Knockaround Guys exists within a very specific era of mobsters, mob movies, and public fascination. Brian debuts a new segment -- "the Barry Pepper Moment" -- before we talk about Vin Diesel's Multi-Facial and our frustrations by the tropes in this film. We ask: who, exactly, are the knockaround guys in this movie? Email us: family@cageclub.me Visit our Patreon page at patreon.com/2fast2forever. Show your support at the 2 Fast 2 Forever shop!

  • Vin Diesel's Evolution Through the Ages: Art, Film, & Revolution | Life in the Fast Lane #43
    Mar 11 2025
    We're here for another Life in the Fast Lane as we track Vin Diesel's evolution through the ages across art, film, and revolution. First, though, we discuss a minute from Tokyo Drift that is exciting to watch but difficult to research and look at a preview for Universal's new F&F rollercoaster. We then luxuriate in nine new Run the VIN posts (in just 14 days!). We talk about Vin Diesel crossing his franchise characters over into other franchises, his D&D prowess, and if he's trying to manifest a Groot movie. Wait, Vin is *directing* Kojak? And, more importantly, where is OUR Vin Diesel thank you post? Joey live-designs merch on-air. (You REALLY need to go to Vin's Instagram to see these posts.)
