Loyal listener and true gent, Bryan joins us this week armed with a couple of underseen gems. We start off with gritty British crime thriller The Squeeze (1977), directed by Michael Apted and follow that up with some choice Philippine exploitation: Cirio H. Santiago's pirate / blaxploitation / women-in-prison mash-up The Muthers (1969). Stacy Keach as a drunk private eye having a really bad week in grim 1970's London, followed by a quartet of plucky African-American beauties pitted against some egregious Filipino thugs in the jungle and on the sea. It's a heady combination!

We don't include a Spoiler Territory for The Squeeze because, well, we kinda forgot (there aren't any huge twists anyway, but if you want to skip ahead at any point, go to 1:36:49 to get to the next movie), but we do manage to remember to call out Spoiler Territory for The Muthers. If you want to skip ahead from that point, you can rejoin the conversation at the 2:40:20 mark to avoid spoilers.

Bird season is OVER, butthorns!!! This week, we have lined up two films which tried to establish Gary Busey as the action movie hero du jour. Unfortunately, they kinda flopped, but we think they're more fun than leaping onto Danny Trejo from the top of a building. First up: Eye of the Tiger (1986), directed by Richard C. Sarafian, and then the wonder of Bulletproof (1988), directed by Steve Carver.

We have a full house to discuss these movies, with not one, not two, but three guests: Bryce, Dr Ethan and Sammy all drop in to take part in the fun.

Let's just say, plot is not really the reason to watch either of these films. so we won't be announcing a Spoiler Territory section for either of them.

And the final Chuck Norris Fact is: Death has now been sentenced to life with Chuck Norris.

In this bonus episode, Rob and Joe pay tribute to one of action hero cinema’s true icons, Carlos Ray “Chuck” Norris. Along with a brief discussion of his life and career, they also dive deep into one of his less celebrated films (even by Chuck Norris fans), the late-cycle Cannon Group production, The Hitman (1991), directed by Chuck’s brother, Aaron Norris.

There’s no Spoiler Territory for this one. Why? Because it’s a Chuck Norris film. Deal with it, or he's gonna hit you with so many rights, you're gonna beg for a left.

RIP Chuck.
