Hey yo, so we got something you might be interested in. It’s a podcast. A real nice podcast. It’s got Phil Iscove and Kenny Neibart and a discussion about Harold Ramis’ mob spoof “Analyze This.” You know, that funny movie where Bobby DeNiro plays a mafia boss with a case of the yips so he hires a shrink who’s played by that guy, you know the one, the comedian with the curly hair who loves Sammy Davis Jr. and baseball? That guy. A mobster going to a shrink! You’d think it was a fantasy not a comedy cuz everyone knows real mobsters ain’t need no psychological evaluation, capiche?

Phil and Kenny are joined by writer Stacy Traub (The Real O’Neals, Blackish, Glee) for an intimate discussion about the 1999 Richard Nixon comedy, Dick. Although not a big hit, when it comes to cultural significance, Dick is more of a grow-er than a show-er. But Dick was a hard movie to pull off. How do you take a dingaling like Richard Nixon and avoid turning him into a one-eyed monster? How do you turn two 15 year old girls (Kirsten Dunst and Michelle Williams) into the trouser snakes who brought down the White House without making myriad boners? And how do you do a podcast about Dick without erecting an oral monument to Dick puns? Join the crew for this episode about a movie that is a cocked rifle shooting a wad of premonition from 1999 into the unsuspecting face of 2018. Hosted on Acast.

From the deranged mind of David Lynch, comes 1999's... sweetest movie? Based on a true story of an -- is this right? -- elderly man who rides a tractor to visit his dying brother... what? This dude did Blue Velvet!  Wait. What is this? This movie got a damn G rating? And was produced by Disney? Is this a joke?  We could have gotten Eraserhead! Wild at Heart! Even Dune would have been fun! But 1999's David Freakin Lynch movie is The Straight Story... And, oh yeah, it's actually great! Join Phil, Kenny and special guest Simon Ennis as they discuss the film Lynch has called his "most experimental," as well as the entire oeuvre of one of America's finest, and wildest, filmmakers.  Hosted on Acast.

On a cold, dark February day, two podcasters (Phil Iscove and Kenny Neibart) and a special guest (Todd VanDerWerff of Vox.com) entered a podcasting studio to discuss the seminal found footage film, The Blair Witch Project. Their plan was to discuss how this film, made for only $35,000, grossed nearly $250 million and changed Hollywood forever, in a funny and insightful way.    But the three were never heard from again.    This is the audio footage they left behind.
