  • Holiday Movies
    Dec 23 2025

    Happy Holidays, all. Jack and Josh run through a bunch of old stand-by lists, in the spirit of rewatching the same holiday movies every year. We hit the classics and also have some fun wrinkles to add. We love holiday movies here at the long list and try to do them justice with this episode. We hope everyone has a happy and fun loving holiday season. And stay safe!

  • WB Sale and Other News
    Dec 16 2025

    We have a bit of a different episode today on The Longlist. Jack and Josh try to make sense of all the different angles of the Warner Bros. sale. It's an impossible task, but they gave it the old college try. At the end of the episode they touch on a few minor news stories around the world of Hollywood.

    On a final note, a few hours after recording, the news of the deaths of both Rob Reiner and Michelle Singer Reiner broke. What a tragic loss that shook the world of movies to it's core. We're sure to do a Rob Reiner episode down the line, but we didn't talk about it much in this podcast because it happened after recording. Thoughts, love and prayers go out to the family and loved ones.

  • Dumb and Dumber
    Dec 9 2025

    In this episode, Jack and Josh are joined by their good friend, Austin Thompson to discuss one of the wildest and most endearing comedies of the 90s, Dumb and Dumber. Remember when studios use to make comedies? Like, all the time? It doesn't seem to happen as much anymore, but the mid 90s were ripe with comedies and this one is one of the best. And Jim Carrey hit the scene like a wildfire and took over Hollywood for a few years. We had a lot of fun breaking down this movie and we hope you have fun listening.

    This week Josh's wife, Rebecca joins Jack and Josh to talk about one of the most beloved and endearing movies of all time, Casablanca. We ranked a bunch of lists pertaining to the movie but we also use the movie as inspiration for other lists to highlight some other movies. We love talking old Hollywood and this film is possibly the best representation of that time. It's a timeless classic and we had a blast breaking it down.
