    Sorcerer (1977)

    Fan favorite Garrett Smith returns to the podcast to make us a three-man team, trekking across the jungle, and talking about Sorcerer! After sharing the crazy backstory behind this movie (and admiring the equally crazy filmmaking of William Friedkin), we talk about how stressful Sorcerer is -- even if you've seen it before. We talk about the story of four doomed men, the incredible Tangerine Dream score, and an era of guys filming crazy things in movies that have never been seen before and will never be seen again. Joey tells the tale of Marvin the Torch. We talk about the immediacy of the tragedy in the film, as well as its ties to both Fast & Furious and Fast Five -- and a theory for Fast Forever.

    And a legacy… lasts Forever. | Life in the Fast Lane #63

    Welcome to the FAST FOREVER era! Always remember the immortal words of Vin Diesel: “And a legacy… lasts Forever.” After discussing what a “Forever” lap could look like, we then move to the Tokyo Drift Minute to discuss the knowledge gap in Twinkie’s mind between art and cars. We then Run the VIN to get some Fast Forever promo and to discuss the rise of “Vin Fake News” among our listeners. When will Bad Bunny join the Fast Family? We discuss. We also share some sad news. The Fast & Furious personality quiz is now online! You can take that here. We source some alternate titles to Fast Forever, hear a pitch for Fast Forever that features no Vin Diesel, and discuss Skyscraper Live, Send Help, 28 Years Later/The Bone Temple, and The Testament of Ann Lee.

    Fast Five (Lap 16)

    We're joined by Ben Fritz of the Wall Street Journal to talk all about Fast Five and the future of the franchise! After talking about his beat at the WSJ, what he covers, and how he started writing about entertainment, we ask what he thinks the future will hold for the Fast franchise. We discuss the creative and financial imperatives at stake, how much money a movie needs to make to be "successful," and how the business plan for Fast Five got him invested in the franchise in the first place. Will the next Fast movie try for anything other than wrapping up a story? Will we see canonical Fast shows on Peacock? We sure hope so! We talk about the reality of how the Family has never heisted more than $100 million (in this economy?), how Fast Five outsmarts the "average action film" in exceptional ways, and how Ben would spend $200 million on Fast 11.

    Happy Birthday, America... | Life in the Fast Lane #62

    It's time for another Life in the Fast Lane, and Vin Diesel has one message for you: Happy Birthday, America... Before we figure out what that's all about, we tackle the Tokyo Drift Minute, which features some of the film's most iconic lines as well as a new showdown: Morimoto vs. Neela? We Run the VIN for another light session... but calendars and time are subjective to Vin Diesel, so does this cadence even matter? Tyrese enters the Criterion Collection! We celebrate. We hear of a new Fast-esque TTRPG. What are the most memorable kisses in the Fast and Furious movies? Joe tries to guess. We do some Fast & Furious trivia that Barry Hertz put together (the sheet is in our Discord, and we don't spoil any answers starting at 38:50). We talk briefly about The Pitt and 28 Years Later.

    Duel (1971)

    We're hitting the road to talk about Duel, Steven Spielberg's first film, and we're joined by Mark Hofmeyer! After learning more Mark lore, we talk about the evolution of Duel from TV movie to full-length feature, the history of rye bread, and how impressive the filmmaking is in this film (on every level). Which Fast and Furious character would do the best in this situation? Mark quizzes us. We talk about how the whole film feels very Fast & Furious (2009) coded, when the movie feels the most like the Twilight Zone, and whether or not people were rooting for the trucker to win. We also talk about our favorite Spielberg chase scenes, cross this film over with Ridley Scott's The Last Duel, and pick Mark's brain for movies to watch in other laps.

    Make-Up Oscars | Life in the Fast Lane #61

    It's time for Life in the Fast Lane (about Make-Up Oscars?) and a bit of a twist on our normal episode format. We start, as usual, in the Tokyo Drift Minute to explore new nicknames, including perhaps more implied racism? (Or: maybe not.) We then Run the VIN to find only one image, but in keeping up with historical precedent, Vin is once again in full-on campaign mode (and also again not looking at the right camera). Could Vin Diesel take a digital detox in 2026? What other cars could be immortalized in LEGO? We discuss. Then, we deep dive (featuring spoilers) into Marty Supreme. We lament that both this movie and One Battle After Another came out this year. Joe talks about seeing a charming Short King on screen, and we praise the casting from top to bottom. We then discuss Joshua Oppenheim's upcoming film Primetime (as well as the other new Robert Pattinson movie, The Drama) before we talk about make-up Oscar (and make-up NFL MVP) wins, as well as Hollywood's latest way of grabbing audience attention.

    Fast & Furious (Lap 16)

    We're joined by Jeanette Ward to talk about Fast & Furious! And, as a bit of a bonus, about Los Bandoleros as well! After we find out what Jeanette likes to see in her big-budget action films (and what she dislikes), we talk about this movie as the first "true" sequel to the original and her thoughts on Los Bandoleros. She shares her rankings (and a new take on No Knees Denise). Who were people rooting for when this movie came out: Dom or Brian? We discuss. We also talk about if Fast & Furious is the first movie where Vin figures out who Dom is, whether Dom can use chopsticks, and whether Brian is good at pool. Jeanette shares what she would like to see in the future of the franchise and then takes the character quiz.

    "I can see something beautiful, cinematic." | Life in the Fast Lane #60

    It's time for our final episode of the year, and our final Life in the Fast Lane! Don't worry: "I can see something beautiful, cinematic." After covering a Tokyo Drift minute that features a deep dive into the career of Brian Tee (and a new nickname for DK?), we head over to Instagram to Run the VIN, where we notice a series of photos where he's looking at a different camera than the one that took the photo he posted. We then ask: what's going on with Cristiano Ronaldo? Rock 'em Sock 'em Robots? The next Fast film? Ark 2? (We have very few answers.) Does Tyrese care whether or not he's posting AI photos? (Probably not!) We talk about new TV, the latest in sports (outdated when you hear this, naturally!), and Radiohead in Copenhagen.
