Episode Summary

"Vegas, baby. Vegas."

Episode Notes

We're finally getting back into the swing of things (haha) here on the pod  and talking one of the most quotable films of the 90s, Swingers! After three years it seems baffling to me that I haven't talked about this film yet. I know you know someone who had this movie poster on their wall, and yet it's one I don't hear talked about too much. 

Written by Jon Favreau and starring most of his emerging actor friends, this film is part time capsule and part subculture view. We follow a super baby faced Vince Vaughn with his fast talking, story telling that he becomes known for years later and hear about  movie auditions, lingering breakups, and constant cinema references. Me and Charles had a blast giving our favorite scenes, dramatic interpretations, and decide whether or not we're money.

Off topic rants include: Jurassic Park, Survivor,  MTV's The Challenge 

at 1:10:00 we talk a little about Season 2 Ep 3 of Yellowjackets (spoilers)
