The Karate Kid struck first in 1984, The Karate Kid II struck hard, and the Karate Kid III showed audiences No Mercy. In this episode, my cousin Johan and I discuss the original Karate Kid trilogy... and also the Cobra Kai TV series because as I discovered, it's basically impossible not to talk about it when discussing the Ralph Macchio and Pat Morita trilogy. Listen in as we discuss similarities to the original Star Wars trilogy, who the most underrated villain of all time is, and why this series still resonates today.

Just when you thought it was safe to come back to the podcast.. Celebrate not getting eaten by a shark this weekend by listening to my guest Veronica and I discuss the Jaws movie franchise, other movies about killer animals in the water, and fun facts (and not so fun experiences) about sea creatures in the Atlantic.

Did you realize that Jurassic Park never technically opened to the public until Jurassic World? In this episode, my guest Clarisa (Jurassic Park, The Mummy podcasts) and I go over this and other jurassic tidbits from the second trilogy, the Chris Pratt stops dinosaurs by putting his hand up in a stop motion trilogy, in the Jurassic Park series (Jurassic World, Fallen Kingdom, and Dominion) before Jurassic World Rebirth is released.

In honor of Mother's Day, listen along as my daughter and I discuss childhood and parenthood, and also Bad Moms and Bad Mom's Christmas. Two movies about a lot of different moms who are mostly not all that bad, but still fun to watch. And to all the mom's out there, Happy Mother's Day! Party like a Mother@#$%

Happy First Contact Day! That's a Star Trek reference. If you don't know it, allow me to explain that and more as I discuss Star Trek films 1-6 with the original crew. If you do know Star Trek, well then you'll surely enjoy listening to me explain all the movies with some additional fun facts.

Surprise, it's the Leprechaun! Right on time for St. Patrick's Day. Join me and Ava in my longest podcast yet. Seriously, I put time stamps for you here you can fast forward to. Ava watched only the first and second Leprechaun. I watched only both Leprechaun in the Hood films, nothing in between, and now we tell each other about it. Special guest, Eowyn, reading answers to our Leprechaun questions. All the love to Warwick Davis.

Stop trying to make Mean Girls the Musical happen. It's not going to happen. But it did happen, and now we have to talk about it. Listen to me and my guest Emily discuss Mean Girls the movie musical and why it was less than fetch.

Do you want to see Colin Firth play the quintessential Mr. Darcy or punch Hugh Grant? Listen to me ramble on and on about adaptations of one of my favorite books, Pride and Prejudice. I saw it in Black & White, watched Elizabeth kill zombies, a double Indian wedding, Dame Judy Dench, a background of the Church of Latter Day Saints, and a party weekend at Fire Island. Which was best? All of them! (except one).
