Episode 42: Feeling Minnesota
Join us on a journey to the land of 1,000 lakes as we visit this forgotten product of the 90s indie boom, "Feeling Minnesota". Dan Aykroyd takes an unprecedented turn playing a crooked, sleazy detective, and Vincent D'Onofrio punches everyone he sees.
In this episode, the boys discuss nominative determinism, Dan first on screen murder, and what made Preston such a bad student.
Nathaniel's Short Film & The Don't Trilogy!
At the top of this episode, I mention a short film I'm directing! It's called "Don't Buy the Liverwurst". Check out our indiegogo here: https://igg.me/at/donttrilogy
Thanks all! Next week: My Fellow Americans. -
Episode 41: Celtic Pride
Dan is back in the saddle in this lost 90s gem with Daniel Stern. It also stands as an early entry into Judd Apatow's writing career, with some great pieces of humor despite its occasional speed bumps. Join Preston and Nathaniel as they discuss their degenerate lives while attending greasy horse tracks, award-winning home plumbing services, and ice hockey in Texas.

Episode 40: Getting Away with Murder
Listeners, this one almost broke us. Instead of talking about the film, we talk about The Menu, Jonestown, and whether or not we as humans are doomed to repeat history. Enjoy!

Episode 39: Sgt. Bilko
Stand at attention! Keep your shoes clean, and your bed made well, and your shirt tucked tight! Because Col. John T Hall will be evaluating you for service.
Join Preston and Nathaniel as they jump into Sgt. Bilko's wacky boot camp, filled with conversations about gambling, toilets, and purple people eaters. -
Episode 38: Canadian Bacon
Put on your galoshes, zip up your parka, and warm up the syrup - We're about to have some Canadian Bacon. That's right, the only narrative feature from documentarian Michael Moore features a cameo from our lord and savior, Dan Aykroyd. As a Canadian motorcycle cop, no less. Join us as we discuss Canada, the state of political filmmaking, and Nathaniel's delicate culinary palate.

Customer Reviews
Fun fun fun!
So much fun. I have only seen a handful of these movies but it doesn't even matter. Preston & Nathanial walk you through the plot, impact and behind the scenes stories of each movie so it's delightful whether you've seen the film or not. Give it a listen!
Aykroydian to its core!
The only podcast to not only dive deep into Dan Akroyd’s career and impact on film, but to ado so in a style that would delight the man himself! With its conehead scoring system, bizarre sound effects, and random tangents, the hosts themselves are carving out a show with a voice that reflects the films they are watching. Preston and Nathaniel are fun to listen to and two people I’d love to have a beer with and talk movies!!!
