    Batman Returns (1992) | A 50% Facts Review | Christmas, not Christmas

    We’re heading into the holiday season, and with that always comes a couple of things: travel and holiday movies. Because of the first thing, we’re diving into the second thing. We’ve got another “film festival” of movies set during the holiday season, but may not be considered holiday movies.   First up, the second Tim Burton Batman film, “Batman Returns,” starring Micheal Keaton. Does it hold up? Was it ever good? What’s the weirdest costume and the best performance?   Dean Saddoris  @deansaddoris.ck joins us again for this one.   Join our Discord for free at goodcompanydiscord.com!   Check out our gym (Third Street Barbell) at ThirdStreetBarbell.com https://www.thirdstreetbarbell.com/ and subscribe for updates about our apparel line at goodcompanyapparel.com https://3sb.co/!

    Are microplastics stealing your gains? Plus, CrossFit athlete’s cause of death revealed

    Plastic was supposed to be inert, right? I mean, it wasn’t supposed to be able to cause real problems for humans, except maybe the whole issue of disposing of them. But plastics are a lot more complicated than that, and microplastics, tiny little fragments of plastic material, are apparently everywhere. And there’s not as inert as we hoped. Are they messing with our hormones? Making us fat? Squashing our test levels? This topic is really just beginning to be studied, but we talk through some of the implications.   Also, CrossFit athlete Lazar Ðukić’s cause of death has been revealed in the past few days and the answer may have major implications for the future of CrossFit and the Games.   Listener resources:   Report on the death of Lazar Ðukić: https://www.instagram.com/p/DCOdZ-8sdnv/?igsh=cjZ4dGs3MGpuMGQ1   Detection of microplastics in the human penis https://www.nature.com/articles/s41443-024-00930-6   Microplastics in human semen.

    Why are federations always in turmoil? | WRPF drama

    Why are there so many federations? Is it just because people can’t get along? Without getting too far down in the details of each incident, you must ask, “Why is there nearly always some kind of drama within federations?” No one really knows, but it’s possible to take some guesses. Is there any hope for unified federations in powerlifting, or is there too much friction?   Listener resources:   Reddit thread about WRPF drama: https://www.reddit.com/r/powerlifting/comments/1gilgdg/wrpf_corruption_powerlifting_united/   Crazy new sport: https://www.instagram.com/reel/DB5jEGwI0rD/?igsh=MzRlODBiNWFlZA==   Join our Discord for free at goodcompanydiscord.com!

    Logan (2017) | A 50% Facts Review | Kickass-tober

    It was the end for Wolverine and Professor X. At least it was supposed to be. Instead, it’s one of the most realistic movies ever made about...mutants with superpowers. High fructose corn syrup has killed off most of the other mutants, and the government is trying to make their own – to become trained assassins. And Wolverine has a daughter?   Dean Saddoris  @deansaddoris.ck joins us again for this one.   Join our Discord for free at goodcompanydiscord.com!   Check out our gym (Third Street Barbell) at ThirdStreetBarbell.com https://www.thirdstreetbarbell.com/ and subscribe for updates about our apparel line at goodcompanyapparel.com https://3sb.co/!

    John Wick (2014) | A 50% Facts Review | Kickass-tober

    The moral of this film could be as simple as “Never kill a retired hitman’s dog.” In The Matrix, Keanu Reeves helped change the sci-fi action genre. In this one, he helps entirely redefine the revenge action genre. With a fighting style borrowed from imports like “The Raid” and some imaginative world-building, John Wick is a film you can’t look away from – though sometimes you may want to.   Dean Saddoris  @deansaddoris.ck joins us again for this one.   Join our Discord for free at goodcompanydiscord.com!   Check out our gym (Third Street Barbell) at ThirdStreetBarbell.com https://www.thirdstreetbarbell.com/ and subscribe for updates about our apparel line at goodcompanyapparel.com https://3sb.co/!

    Terminator 2: Judgement Day (1991) | A 50% Facts Review | Kickass-tober

    All this month, we’re watching (some of us for the first time) some kickass flicks! Following up last week’s look at The Terminator (1981), we dig into its first sequel. This time Arnold Schwarzenegger plays a good guy, and this film has non-stop action. We largely discuss the impact this chapter of the Terminator saga had on films that followed and popular culture.   Huge Arnold fan Dean Saddoris  @deansaddoris.ck joins us for Mike’s first viewing of this classic (as well).

    The Terminator (1984) | A 50% Facts Review | Kickass-tober

    All this month, we’re watching (some of us for the first time) some kickass flicks! First up, the movie that cemented Arnold Schwarzenegger as a bankable Hollywood star and launched a multi-billion dollar film and TV franchise.   Does the mid-to-low-budget horror flick stand the test of time? What did 1984 vintage special effects look like? How appropriate was it for Arnold to play an emotionless robot? Do we really get to see Arnold’s dong? Huge Arnold fan Dean Saddoris  @deansaddoris.ck joins us for Mike’s first viewing of this classic.   Do you have a question for one of our Friday “One Good Question” episodes?
