  • Diving into “Deadpool”: Screwball Comedy with a Superhero Twist
    May 29 2024

    What do a foul-mouthed antihero the classic screwball comedies of the 1930s have in common? Join Tony and Brad for a hilarious discussion about Tony's first Marvel film experience, "Deadpool" (2016). While Brad shares his insights on the history of the character, Tony can’t help but gush over Ryan Reynolds' irreverent charms. Listen as they dissect the bold contrast between traditional superhero fare and the whip-smart, dirty humor that makes "Deadpool" stand out.

    Marvel Comics’ roller-coaster journey through the 1990s could be an epic tale on its own. From Marvel’s financial woes that led to selling off valuable character rights, to Ryan's dogged determination and some ‘accidental’ leaked footage that turned the tide, with persistence, creativity, and a bit of luck, giving new depth to the Deadpool phenomenon.

    May 22 2024

    Think films from Hollywood’s golden age are all tame, innocent, and sexless? Well, you haven’t met “Baby Face”!

Join Tony and Brad as they discuss her raw portrayal of Lily Powers, a woman who defies her era's norms, leveraging her allure for power and success. Join them for a vivid retelling of "Baby Face's" narrative, embarking on Lily's journey from the speakeasy underbelly of Erie, Pennsylvania, to the towering corporate ladders of New York City.
