005 -- NATIONAL LAMPOON'S VACATION (83) and FUNNY FARM with Troy
I chat with fellow movie marathoner and one of my best friends growing up, Troy. My man watched me murder a kickball in 3rd grade and we’ve been buds ever since.
Troy and I completed countless B-Movie Fests together and we still have an appreciation for top-notch, A-list comedy. Today we talk about Chevy Chase in NATIONAL LAMPOON’S VACATION (1983) and FUNNY FARM (1988).
You can find Troy on Twitter @MaddoxOnslaught

004 -- MAXIMUM OVERDRIVE and SLEEPWALKERS with Doug McCoy
Doug McCoy from the Throwback Network and are holed up at the Dixie Boy Truck Stop to discuss the Stephen King films Maximum Overdrive (1986) and Sleepwalkers (1992). We plow through what we remember about the movies – as much as time allows at least.
Doug and I could have easily talked another hour. I totally forgot to mention the first time I stayed up “all night” we had watched Maximum Overdrive and played BreakThru on NES until the sun came up. Doug talks about cosmic “thin places” where cats perceive evil. We probably could have done a full hour on that alone!

002 -- Avalon -- Planes, Trains, and Automobiles
High adventure, high drama, and high tryptophan levels. I talk about two movies that use Thanksgiving as a dramatic/comedic backdrop.
