Customer Reviews
Desperado & Cuidad Acuña
Really loved the Desperado episode, guys. My fiancée grew up in Del Rio across the U.S. border from Cuidad Acuña where this movie was filmed. The depiction of U.S. college students walking randomly into a border town bar is 100% accurate. You mentioned the bar they filmed at is there to this day, Club Corona. Listeners may be interested to learn the walls are covered with behind the scenes photographs of cast and crew. It’s fun to have a michelada at the bar Cheech and QT got shot at.
Keep up the Mount Punching
Bot out to bankrupt Mac and David
Missing the Mascot Wedding Show? Feel like you don’t watch enough action movies? Think Passenger 57 is the greatest action film of all time, but not sure if you’re objective enough to understand its true place in the definitive ranking of action movies? Or just want to listen to a wholesome friendship through the filter of excellent action movie reviews? The mountain beckons.
A roundhouse kick to the dopamine!
Really loving the show, fellas. Great to hear you two goofin again. It is refreshing to hear movies discussed for their enjoyability and not necessarily their artistic merit.
One question is lingering for me: what does “mark out” mean exactly? I have never heard this phrase before this show and i am curious about its origins.
Love you. Miss you.
