Hey Boyz, after listening to the Marathon Man episode I rewatched the movie then read the book, which was a blast to read. Roger’s mentioned there was a sequel called Brothers, which I also got my hands on and it is a home run Action Boyz book. Have any of you read it? I would love to hear your thoughts and opinions on it. It’s got weird, Stephen King type sex stuff and lots of action.

Curious if the janitors are watching the Cinema Tyler series on the making of Apocalypse Now? A new episode just dropped on YouTube and it’s about the backstory of Dennis Hopper and the inspiration behind his character. Highly recommend it.

Playing at the Astor in St Kilda on the 25th for all the Melbourne janitors

Hey Action Boyz…have you ever heard of Angus McCaskill? The largest non-pathological giant in history. 7’9” with an 80” chest, while not being obese. He supposedly picked up an anchor that weighed over 2,000 pounds to his chest, and could lift 250 pounds with 3 fingers. I’m sad he wasn’t born in the modern era. Imagine a guy 8 inches taller and 175 pounds heavier than Shaq when he was drafted. I don’t expect this to translate well for the pod, it’s just wild to think about what a guy that big would do in modern sports. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Angus_MacAskill

Guy Ritchie launched his career with a Tarantino rip-off, he's just updating his homages/theft. Sure there is no shame in it, Ritchie is also a gifted visual stylist in his own right. My main problem with him is that his comedy writing is pretty piss poor. His character's banter has the cadence of jokes but his jokes are not very funny.

Any one else think ministry of ungentlemanly warfare is basically less interesting inglorious basterds but with more stylized action? Also, that monkey man fuckin ripped?

To survive a podcast, you gotta become a podcast.

Gotta do monster of the week only… it’s the only way!

Hey Gabrus did you ever start your X Files rewatch?

Megan

Dennis Hopper’s voice and look and vibe in Apocalypse Now feels so much like Jake Johnson today it’s wild

Liz Arcury

Boyz thank you for this film selection because all I can think about is Megalopolis.

Jenn

Fair point..

The Buffmaster

Thoughts on the recent explosion in popularity of in women's basketball/WNBA? I've watched more wnba games this week than I have in my entire life!

Will

The Krychek photoshop writes itself: A Gabrus head on Dennis Hopper. Stanger on Robert Duvall. Obviously Rodgers on Martin Sheen. Gwildor whispering “the horror” completes the ensemble.

Jim

Rodgers, have you started learning guitar?

Did a Bieber music vid. They hung out in the trailer and halted production for a few hours that took us into overtime. The production ran out of money, so he fronted the cash to pay for the rest. Was hanging out in a condor with a 24k for a good bit. Good lad. Multiple other shitshows that come with low budget but NOTHING touching this. Heard about a marvel crew that went to thailand/phillipines during Covid and got fucked w/ quarantines bc one bloke decided to fuck around on the last day and tested +.

Gabriel M

Genuinely curious about the crew experiences surrounding this helldom slash masterpiece. Was a local 80 grip in LA for several of my prime years and would love to hear how the crew faired on this one. Cheers guys!

What’s it about?

David McElroy

Does Jane bug out during Timberwolves games when they play the howling sound effect?

Douglas “Scoop” Reinhardt

Just watched Point Blank. By golly it's a proto-ABZ movie. Throw it on the list, sirs! I'm compelled to watch every Boorman movie I can get my hands on now!

David McElroy

Stanger, thoughts on the benefits/risks of using Yohimbine in pre-workout?

They were too small and I planned on giving them away at the live show costume contest, but forgot them. Will be at the next live show for sure.

Gabrus, Rodgers, and Stanger

Rodgers, did you get those Chuck Norris Action Jeans?

Food Crimes

I believe that conversation was in reference to things that listeners found confusing, not just questions in general.

Gabrus, Rodgers, and Stanger

Check out the doc Boobs - An American Obsession if you haven't seen it. It's free on Tubi and you won't regret it

Food Crimes

Have any of you ever had an experience working for a madman even remotely close to level of Coppola in this doc? (Aka what’s your craziest director experience?)

Worst experiences you went through going back to your hometown if there is any

Dear Mr. Rodgers. In the Videodrome ep, you were wondering why we didn't ask more questions.. For more than a year, you have only answered questions from the voice messages. I believe that's why it has come to a halt.. But I'll play - What are Stangers best lifts in the squat, bench and deadlift? 🙂💪

The Buffmaster

Stanger has a funny fitness podcast called The Dumbbells. Lots of playful banter and helpful info there.

Megan

I’d like to hear more about Stanger’s journey into healthy eating. I’d like to reach a similar point in life where I get satisfaction from hearing people talk about junk food or spotting it in movies, while not actually having to endure the harmful physical effects of consuming it. Was he always a healthy eater? Was there a book that changed his outlook? Any recommendations on what kind of food to shop for and to avoid? I find health food stores totally overwhelming and am wondering if he ever shops at regular grocery stores.

Big Stepper

I won’t harp on it much more, but I truly believe you guys would love covering Deadbeat At Dawn (on main feed obviously). Every fucking minute of that movie rips
