    Tuck Everlasting with Karyn Raynor of Chick-Lit, with Karyn and Aubree - Main Event

    Having rewatched the beloved teen romantasy flick from her youth, 2002's Tuck Everlasting, Karyn Raynor of Chick-Lit, with Karyn and Aubree, is forced to reckon with its highly problematic (and later stolen) premise in which a 15-year-old girl is groomed by a 104-year-old immortal man in the body of a 17-year-old boy. Poor accents, plot holes, thinly fleshed out lore, and strange choices abound, and the origins of long-running television shows not even remotely related to this property can be traced to this film, so there is tons to discuss. Would Tuck Everlasting's deficiencies sink the film for Karyn on rewatch, or would she still be able to enjoy this weird ride through pre-WWI Stars Hollow--I mean Tree Gap?  Tuck Everlasting can be streamed on Disney Plus. Chick-Lit, with Karyn and Aubree can be found at a slew of places listed here: Chick-Lit Linktree All music in the show was composed by Divorcio Suave.  Josh Duggan can also be heard with co-host Adam Schwitters on the seminal Law & Order: SVU podcast, Munch My Benson.

    Brainstorm with Leo Allen of Voluntary Input and Profound Simplicity - Main Event

    We throw on the helmet and strap in for a weird, wild ride this week as we watched the 1983 sci-fi family dramedy Brainstorm, featuring the ill-fated star-crossed lovers Christopher Walken and Natalie Wood, in the film that would prove to be her last, as she died tragically and mysteriously while this film was down for the holidays. Leo Allen host of the Voluntary Input podcast and the mind behind the music project Profound Simplicity joins us to discuss this gem from his youth. What would our lives be like if we suddenly had a virtual reality experience that stimulated all of our senses like in this film? How could this technology be exploited and what's one of the obvious prurient first uses that it would be used for? Don't worry, those questions--along with many others--are addressed in this week's installment of the Unkind Rewind. Brainstorm can be streamed for free at Hoopla or on the Internet Archive. Leo Allen can be found at his website: leojallenjr.com His music released under the moniker Profound Simplicity can be found on YouTube: youtube.com/@profoundsimplicity  His podcast, Voluntary Input, should hopefully be back up and running in early 2025, and can be found here or wherever you get your pod on. All music in the show was composed by Divorcio Suave.  Josh Duggan can also be heard with co-host Adam Schwitters on the seminal Law & Order: SVU podcast, Munch My Benson.

    Qs and Tease with Leo Allen of Voluntary Input and Profound Simplicity

    After Sean and Josh catch up on things after a few months down between Seasons 1 and 2, Josh sits down with our special guest for this week and next, Leo Allen, who shares a soft spot in his heart for next week's film, which is simultaneously not well known and yet somewhat significant, historically speaking. It's a great time with Leo.  Disclaimer: there is some election postmortem talk near the top of the episode, so once that starts, you can skip ahead to about the 10:20 mark if you'd like to avoid that. Next week's film can be streamed for free at Hoopla or on the Internet Archive. Leo Allen can be found at his website: leojallenjr.com His music released under the moniker Profound Simplicity can be found on YouTube: youtube.com/@profoundsimplicity  His podcast, Voluntary Input, should hopefully be back up and running in January of 2025, and can be found here or wherever you get your pod on.

    Angel Heart with Adam Schwitters of Munch My Benson - Main Event

    At the age of 9, a friend's dad traumatized his own son and Munch My Benson's own Adam Schwitters by gleefully letting them watch the darkly sexual and extremely messed up 1987 Mickey Rourke/Lisa Bonet/Robert De Niro gothic horror noir set in 1950s New York and New Orleans, Angel Heart. The first time Josh heard this, he was struck dumb at the notion that such a young child had been allowed to see such an ADULT movie, so when Unkind Rewind was born, there was absolutely no way that they weren't going to dive into Adam's FORMATIVE experience with such an age-inappropriate film. Angel Heart is currently streaming on Hoopla, Kanopy, and PlutoTV. Adam can be heard weekly alongside Josh on their Law & Order: SVU podcast Munch My Benson, which is 220 episodes in and counting: BlueSky, Instagram, Facebook, Threads, and Twitter His personal social media accounts are: Twitter and BlueSky All music in the show was composed by Divorcio Suave.  Play CineQuote, your daily movie quote trivia game which Sean McGrath co-created.  You can follow Unkind Rewind on: BlueSky, Facebook, Instagram, Reddit, Threads, Twitter, and YouTube Josh's Social Media: BlueSky, Twitter, Letterboxd, and Substack Sean's Social Media: BlueSky, Twitter, Letterboxd Join the Munch Casts Discord: Just go here.

    Qs and Tease with Adam Schwitters of Munch My Benson

    After Sean and Josh prepare you for the coming weeks without the podcast in the penultimate episode of Season 1, they welcome occasional Unkind Rewind co-host and full-time Munch My Benson co-host Adam Schwitters to the podcast. When Adam was a wee lad of 8, he saw a film that he was roughly ten years too young to see. The first time Josh heard this, he guffawed and when this podcast came into being there was absolutely no way that they weren't going to dive into Adam's FORMATIVE experience with next week's film. Next week's film is currently streaming on Hoopla, Kanopy, and PlutoTV. Adam can be heard weekly alongside Josh on their Law & Order: SVU podcast Munch My Benson, which is 220 episodes in and counting: BlueSky, Instagram, Facebook, Threads, and Twitter His personal social media accounts are: Twitter and BlueSky All music in the show was composed by Divorcio Suave.  Play CineQuote, your daily movie quote trivia game which Sean McGrath co-created.  You can follow Unkind Rewind on: BlueSky, Facebook, Instagram, Reddit, Threads, Twitter, and YouTube Josh's Social Media: BlueSky, Twitter, Letterboxd, and Substack Sean's Social Media: BlueSky, Twitter, Letterboxd Join the Munch Casts Discord: Just go here.

    The Craft with Tasha Crawford of SVU POD: Especially Heinous - Main Event

    Tasha Crawford--half of the inimitable hosting duo of the Law & Order: Special Victims Unit podcast SVU POD: Especially Heinous--joins us this week to expose to the possibility of ruination The Craft, a formative film she loved as a teen. How would this very 1996 film play in 2024? Would its racism both on and off camera shock? Would the form of feminism it purports to wield play today? Despite having the largest diving team in the country by more than a score of athletes, did it hew close enough to high school of the '90s to pass the smell test? Was the cringiest aspect of the film what Tasha expected, or did it come from a different area altogether? Most importantly, would The Craft still be a movie Tasha could enjoy in her [age redacted]? The Craft is currently streaming on Max or can be rented on most VOD platforms for $3.99. Or you could just search for the film's name and full movie and find it pretty easily...
