Episode 255 - Beverly Hills Cop

Best Film Ever

(Deep Dive begins at 58:30)

You may have heard of pods but have you heard of Super Pods? Get the f**k out of here! Join your favourite TransAtlantic podcasters, Ian, Liam and Kev (Megs and Georgia are trapped in the back of a cigarette truck) as we're heading to the Left Coast to avenge a childhood friend in Beverly Hills Cop. We're not falling for bananas in our tail pipes in our 255th episode as we discuss:

  • If Oscar worthy films are Steak and Marvel is Pizza, what is Beverly Hills Cop?
  • We've got an age game for the record
  • We have a really hard time forgiving Axel for something in this film
  • You won't believe who was initially supposed to play Axel
  • We talk about where the iconic theme was originally supposed to feature in this film
  • The bad guys could've won this movie about 10 times (and in the first 10 minutes too)
  • One of us has a totally wrong read on this film
  • Why are all 80s damsels in distress the same?
  • Liam demonstrates some growth while Ian almost spits out his drink in the process
  • Whether or not Beverly Hills Cop is the Best Film Ever
