    40 Year Old Virgin (2005)

    40 Year Old Virgin (2005)

    In Episode 34, we reach back into the Judd Apatow series of comedies from the early 2000's and cover 40 Year Old Virgin, starring Steve Carell. This was an episode we recorded a while back, but ran into technical issues during editing, so we re-watched and recorded this one to make it right! 

    Note: This episode was recorded in June of 2023.

    Wedding Crashers (2005) Epic rants, new music, and great drinks

    Wedding Crashers (2005) Epic rants, new music, and great drinks

    This bonus episode was recorded in the summer of 2022, but we held onto it for a while as we were preparing to record our Top Gun episode. Unfortunately, we ran into some technical issues with that one, so we decided to keep it in the vault and  bring in the new year with a new episode and share our thoughts about Wedding Crashers. Enjoy!

    Join Jay and Ryan as they discuss the new Ghostbusters Afterlife film. Is this one possibly the best sequel in the series, or did it fail to live up to the hype? As always, the guys make you think and laugh while enjoying a cold brew and sharing their music picks for the MMB Radio playlist on Spotify! Also covered is the late 90's gen-x underrated film, Suburbia.

    Remembering Ghostbusters (1984), ripping Matrix Revolutions, and reviewing the Chucky series

    Remembering Ghostbusters (1984), ripping Matrix Revolutions, and reviewing the Chucky series

    After a long break, we're back to discuss one of our childhood favorites, Ghostbusters. With the release of the 2021 re-boot, we revisit this paranormal comedy gem and discuss our favorite scenes, characters, quotes, and more!

    Our "Regret" of the episode is the new "Matrix Revolutions," which is quite possibly the worst re-boot in a long while. Listen to why Jay hated it so much.

    Later in the episode, we dig into the new horror series, "Chucky" on the USA network and share what we love about it, and what irks us as well. 

    As always, you'll hear us share our music picks for the "Movies, Music and Beer Radio" playlist on Spotify, as well our beers of the episode.

Surprisingly Good

I do like the Podcast. The only thing I would have to say is they need to cover more Older movies.

I think it is recorded in the Back of the Dairy Queen by the Ice Machine on Bedford Drive :-)

So Much Fun

This is such a fun podcast! The guys are super knowledgeable about their topics and their passion for the subjects shine through. I felt like I was along for the ride through multiple episodes and I learned a few things too. I’m a new fan for sure.

Jay & Ryan are the best

Great show with two great guys. The recommendations are great and their back and forth banter is insightful and humorous. My favorite episode is number 10, Rise of Skywalker, but I’m a bit bias.
