Podcast Like It's ...

Bicentennial Man is a film from 1999 with a title that gives away the ending. If the studio was intent on giving away the ending, perhaps they should have gone with one of their alternate, snappier titles instead, such as: “I Fucked My Fridge” Todd Van Der Werff (Vox) and Libby Hill (LA Times) join us for a high-minded discussion on the film* that ended Robin Williams’ career as a leading man. * ”Jakob the Liar” can also make this claim, but fortunately for us we won’t be covering it because it was made in ... well, fuck.           Hosted on Acast.

Phil, Kenny and Okieriete Onaodowan (Hamilton, Station 19, sorry, did you miss what we said? Hamilton. The original Broadway Cast. He was Hercules Mulligan and James Madison. If you knock him down he’ll get the fuck back up again! Oh my god, I’m fanboying out and I’m just a bot that generates amusing podcast writeups, back to the movie) take a trip to a little redneck mountain town (which is directly from the movie. The MOVIE is using the derogatory term ‘redneck,’ you ass-licking cockholes) to review Trey Parker and Matt Stone’s masterpiece (yeah, masterpiece. Hang it in the Louvre, shitsniffers!), SOUTH PARK: BIGGER LONGER AND UNCUT!    So strap in you big ol dildo pirates as we let Stan, Kyle, Cartman, Kenny, Chef, Mr. Hat and Satan serenade us with the best - and only - toe-sucking, pubic hair-ingesting musical of 1999.    Oh, and Happy New Year, Fuckers!

Are you ready to ROCK?! Oh, no, you’re not? Then, well, are you ready to ROLL?! Not that either? Hmm... are you ready to PAINT YOUR FACE LIKE A DEMON AND STICK YOUR TONGUE OUT?! Oh, not your bag either, huh? Okay, then... ARE YOU READY TO LISTEN TO A PODCAST ABOUT A THINLY-VEILED INFOMERCIAL DISGUISED AS A PROBLEMATIC ROAD MOVIE?! You are?! Then, my good man, do we have the podcast for you.  Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

This week on the pod Matthew D’Ambrosio (The Vampire Diaries) joins Phil and Kenny to discuss Kevin Williamson’s directorial debut, “Teaching Mrs. Tingle,” a film best known for changing its title pre-release from “Killing Mrs. Tingle” and thereby solving the problem of violence in America once an for all!

Christmas comes early for the listeners of Podcast Like It’s 1999 as Phil and Kenny are joined by Eric Carrasco (Supergirl) to discuss the 1999 Denise Richards vehicle “Dr. Christmas Jones and the World Is Not Enough” (co-starring Pierce Brosnan as James Bond).

We all have dreams, but the truly great ones dare to dream the dreams that have never been dreamt before. Take Carrie Gillogly (AMC), our guest for the week. Carrie had a dream to guest on the podcast about October Sky, the 1999 Jake Gyllenhaal-Chris Cooper space/mining drama, and make co-host Kenny appreciate it for the sensitive story of one man’s perseverance it is. At every turn, she experienced seemingly insurmountable odds. Yet, like the protagonist Homer Hickman, she persevered. But, did she succeed in her mission? Tune in to find out! Hosted on Acast.

Once in a generation, a podcast comes along that is so riveting, so ravishing, so revolutionary that it can only be described as a SUPERCAST. Unfortunately, our podcast on Molly Shannon’s Superstar is not that supercast. It is, however, an honest and frank discussion of a wildly misunderstood and underappreciated diamond in 1999’s rough. Much thanks to our guests, Molly Green and James Leffler (Station 19), for excavating said diamond and holding it up to figuratively/audibly shine for everyone. Hosted on Acast.

In honor of our first full year of chronicling the films of 1999, Phil and Kenny look back at their first 52 episodes and give out awards (for which only the films we’ve arbitrarily chosen to cover are eligible!). Join us as we run down our Bests (like actors, actresses, screenplay, song and scene), Worsts (like worst movie, worst fashion and worst aged) and Biggest (surprise, letdown). We also give our top ten so far and preview the next 52 and beyond. Thank you for listening so far and we have some very exciting things planned for next year! Hosted on Acast.

It’s been a full year here at Podcast Like It’s 1999 and Phil and Kenny are celebrating in style as they are joined by producer Hailey Wierengo to discuss Pedro Almodóvar’s Oscar-winning film “All About My Mother!” I just write the synopses, so I don’t know what this movie is about, but Moms are great, so I’m sure it’s a sweet tale about fun moms! Mwah! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Kenny and Phil are not your average podcasters. Most podcasters look at humanity and see a small sliver who can podcast at even a remedial level. But not Kenny and Phil. They believe that podcasting comes from within... that it comes from the heart.    So, it was with that spirit, that they invited Melissa Lora and Corinne Stikeman - two podcast guests with a scant four guest episodes of experience between them - on to the podcast.   But Phil and Kenny did not take it easy on Melissa and Corinne. They could have started slow, with a rip-roaring crowd-pleaser like "The Mummy" or a meaty hunk of podcast fodder-beef like "Wild Wild West," but, instead, Melissa and Corinne were forced to come up with 90-120 minutes of aural delight about the Violins-in-East-Harlem, Meryl Streep-vehicle, "Music of the Heart."    We can hear you shudder. How can two novices, two amateurs, two rookies spin such a plain, boring, rote film into podcast gold?    Well. Take a listen. You won't believe your ears. As long, that is, as you listen with your heart. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
