    The Quick and the Dead - 1995

    Boomtown violence, kinetic camera work, and an absurdly stacked cast—this week we're diving into The Quick and the Dead (1995). Is it a comic-book pulp masterpiece or a stylish mess? We discuss Sharon Stone handpicking Leonardo DiCaprio and Russell Crowe, Gene Hackman's terrifying charm, and how Sam Raimi injected his signature comic-book kineticism into the classic Western genre. Tune in for hot takes, killer trivia, and plenty of quick-draw drama on the Back to the Past Podcast from the AllStar Fence STL Studios on the Lion's Den Podcast Network powered by Stark Roofing!

    More Than Meets the Wallet: Pops, Bots, and Battle Royales

    Is your living room looking less like a home and more like a pop-culture warehouse? This week, we're coming clean about our deepest, most dangerous collecting and gaming obsessions. We're diving headfirst into the high-stakes world of Transformers collecting—from vintage G1s to the newest Studio Series lines—before tackling the wall-to-wall madness of Funko Pop vinyl figures. Plus, we're talking about the endless itch to drop into the latest Fortnite island for just "one more match" (and the absolute addiction to buying v-bucks for skins). Grab your Energon, protect your shelves, and join us for a masterclass in hyper-fixation!

    Plastic Monsters, Pokemon Cards, and COG Consoles

    Is it still a hobby if your shelves are literally groaning under the weight of your collection? This week, we're coming clean about our deepest, most dangerous collecting obsessions. We're diving headfirst into the plastic void of Godzilla kaju, Metroid bounty hunters, Xenomorphs, and the neon grid of TRON. Plus, we're talking about the thrill (and heartbreak) of chasing holographic Pokémon card pulls and why we absolutely needed every single custom Gears of War console ever made.

    My Therapist Knows about My Legos

    Welcome to our unofficial support group. Today, we're admitting that we have a problem—and that problem is fueled by LEGO instructions, Time Lord lore, and 1920s detective mysteries. We're breaking down why we can't stop buying modular buildings, how Doctor Who broke our brains, and why Frank and Joe Hardy are still giving us unrealistic expectations about solving local crimes. It's an episode packed with plastic, paradoxes, and peril on the Back to the Past Podcast from the AllStar Fence STL Studios on the Lion's Den Podcast Network powered by Stark Roofing!

    E.T. the Extra Terrestrial - Part One

    Welcome to the podcast where we're definitely not 'allergic to anything,' except maybe federal agents in hazmat suits. This week, we're heading back to 1982 to hang out with a wrinkled, brown space-botanist who has a glowing finger, a serious Reese's Pieces addiction, and a better long-distance calling plan than most of us had in the nineties.   We're diving deep into the suburbs of California to figure out how a group of kids—led by a boy with a telepathic hangover—managed to outrun the entire government on BMX bikes with nothing but 'heart' and some questionable physics.   Grab your speak-and-spells, hide your beer from the alien, and for the love of everything, stay out of the tool shed. It's time to talk E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial.

    E.T. the Extra Terrestrial - Part Two

    Welcome back to the podcast where we've officially moved past the 'cute alien in a flower pot' phase and straight into the 'why is there a NASA laboratory in my living room?' phase.   It's part two of our look at 1982's E.T., and things are getting heavy—mostly because E.T. just discovered the fridge and Elliott's emotional stability is hanging by a single telepathic thread.   In this episode, we're asking the hard questions: How did those kids pedal fast enough to defy gravity? Is 'Keys' actually a villain or just a guy who really needs a better hobby? And exactly how many Reese's Pieces does it take to bribe a government official?   So, toss your kid brother in the bike basket, tell your mom it's just a 'coyote' in the shed, and let's get into the tear-jerking, bike-flying finale of E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial.
