    Major League

    Major League

    Rebecca and Craig discuss the classic 1989 baseball comedy. We're defending an MLB owner who wants to move a losing team to Miami, a baseball player who has plans for his retirement and pitching a new, less offensive team name that properly honours Cleveland's history.

    Cool Runnings

    Craig and Rebecca discuss the John Candy led sports comedy all about the first Jamaican bobsled team. We're defending Jamaican Olympic officials who don't want to use their limited resources on four men who just started learning a sport, and siding with the East-German athletes who are actually just giving helpful tips about the course.

    Confessions Of A Shopaholic

    Confessions Of A Shopaholic

    Rebecca and Craig dive into the 2009 rom-com centered around a life destroying addiction. We're defending the man trying to get our main character to pay her massive debts as well as her professional/romantic rival whose biggest crime was being another woman. Plus we discuss how the movie came *this* close to having its characters learn a lesson.

    Encino Man (with Ava Val)

    Craig and Rebecca are joined by special guest Ava Val (@AvaValComedy) to talk about the Pauly Shore teen/cave-man comedy. We're arguing for the school bully who is trying to keep a creepy Samwise Gamgee away from his girlfriend and who very rightly suspects that there is something suspicious about the new exchange student.
    Catch Ava Val's comedy special "So Brave" debuting on "800 Pound Gorilla Media's" YouTube channel June 30, 2024 at 8:00PM EST (youtube.com/@800pgm).
