The Men of Action are Graham Self and Andrew Crupi a real life buddy cop movie odd couple. Graham’s the fresh faced recrute whos had very little experience with movies from the“Golden Age of Action” while Crupi’s the grizzled veteran who’s seen it all before and is getting too old for this... well you know the rest.

The Men Of Actions mission, should they choose to accept it, is to watch action movies from the “Golden Age of Action” the 80’s and 90’s and discuss whether or not they deserve a place in the “Pantheon Of Action” or should be left to the VHS graveyard of old.

    NOTE: Men Of Action fans we will still be releasing new MOA Podcast episodes later in the year. We just needed to take some time off this year for personal and professional reasons and these episodes of “The Importance of Seeing Ernest” were gathering dust in the Pantheon so we thought it best to release them before they exploded.
