It’s Slashtober, and we’re celebrating the only way we know how––by watching and discussing low-rent franchise horror films full of amateur Canadian actors and grizzly simulated murder. Up today is JASON X (2001), the unlikely 10th film in the beyond long in the tooth FRIDAY THE 13TH franchise where Jason gets frozen, unthawed 400 years in the futu…

After a couple weeks of corporate America interruption, the podcast is back for our annual celebration of Halloween Horror Stupidity. It’s Slashtober, and we’re kicking things off by covering one of the most tragically under-appreciated Matthew McConaughey performances of all-time, his abusive, perverted, robot-legged Texan psychopath, Vilmer, in t…

Now that it’s officially Fall, we felt like we needed to kick things up when it came to our September mini-series, Free Fallin, where we’ve been talking about movies that feature badass skydiving sequences. How does one turn things up to eleven after we’ve already talked back to back weeks of Charlie Sheen movies? By calling in the big guns. It’s H…

Sometimes a movie sounds better on paper than it actually ends up being. You tell me I’m about to watch a movie where Chuck Sheen plays a former Olympic gymnast turned bad boy skydiver turned KGB recruit, and I’m expecting something great. And then you have TERMINAL VELOCITY, where… well, I don’t want to spoil things. I’ll let you listen and figure…

It’s the last weekend of true summer, as the calendar turns over to September and Autumn approaches. Instead of whining about it, we’ve decided to rip the band-aid clean off and ditch our disastrous attempt at doing an August mini-series to start up a new fall series for September. It’s Free Fallin’, our month-long look at movies that feature promi…

For some ungodly reason we decided to punish ourselves by watching straight to video sequels all August long. So this is the start of our latest miniseries, Discount DVD Bin! That exclamation point is there to make things sound exciting. What’s up first? The straight to DVD monster movie sequel that wasn’t enticing enough to bring back Kevin Bacon,…

If you’re looking for some kind of low brow movie podcast for idiots, keep moving pal, because we’re talking about a documentary on this bad boy. That’s right, we’re smart as shit. Our Action Mount Rushmore month finishes up with the most Austrian head on our monument, that of Arnold Schwarzenegger. It’s Mr Olympia versus an Eyetalian Hulk from Bro…

July is when we do our Action Mount Rushmore, where we watch a JCVD, a Stallone, a Seagal, and a Schwarzenegger. This year in specific, we’re doing Mount Rushmore two-handers, where our dudes share top billing with another actor. Caught up? Good. Because this is a very special episode of the podcast… it’s our first watchalong! What that means, is i…

We’re really committed to this Action Movie Mount Rushmore two-hander thing, where we’re watching movies where our top 4 action heroes share top billing with another theoretically as large star, so that means we had to spend our day today sitting through and talking about ASSASSINS (1995). It’s one of those movies where Stallone is trying to play a…

Unless you’ve been living under a goddamned rock for the last couple years, you know that July is always the month where we celebrate our Action Mount Rushmore. We watch a JCVD, we watch a Stallone, we watch a Seagal, and we watch a Schwarzenegger. This year we’re going to zhuzh things up a bit by theming things further. We’re talking Mount Rushmor…

It’s the last week of our big dog-themed event, ‘The Dog Days of Summer,’ and we’re flipping the script on you by talking about a movie where dogs and humans are decidedly NOT best friends. As a matter of fact, we’re talking about a movie where a bunch of blood-thirsty wolves wage war against that gigantic Irish fuck Liam Neeson. It’s 2011’s bleak,…

If you like listening to podcasts where the hosts talk at length about dog sex all while doing constant impressions of Tom Hanks yelling, then this is the episode for you! Our June event ‘The Dog Days of Summer’ continues with a discussion of that other cop and a dog movie that came out in 1989, TURNER & HOOCH.…

We’re just going to apologize in advance because this is the rapiest movie we’ve covered yet.Av Baby Oil and Blow

It’s post Memorial Day, so we’re sunbunt, we’ve got bellies full of hot dogs, and we’re ready to start slacking off. Is it cool if adults start taking summer breaks too? Regardless, ain’t nobody taking a break from podcasting. It’s a new month so we’ve got a new miniseries to start. All June long we’re celebrating ‘The Dog Days of Summer’ by talkin…

Okay, so we spend an inordinate amount of time discussing the female lead’s body this week, but in our defense, this movie features about 40 minutes of full frontal nudity and we challenge anyone to not be stunned by the quality of it. It’s the final film in our Cannon Canon retrospective, Toby Hooper’s naked space vampire epic, LIFEFORCE (1985). S…

This week on The Cannon Canon we’re delving into the Chuck Norris corner of the Cannon Films universe by talking about his 1985 film where one very misguided Russian terrorist and about three dozen multi-ethnic underlings attempt a full-scale land invasion of the United States, INVASION USA. “It can happen here,” but what “it” is gets pretty unclea…

Join us as we continue to dive deep into the output of Cannon Films, that 80s action-heavy production company set up by Golobulous, the snake man from Cobra-La. This week we’re talking about one of their very best Charles Bronson vehicles that didn’t have the words “death” or “wish” in the title, 10 TO MIDNIGHT (1983). It’s Bronson vs a naked seria…

We fucked up not recording a fourth ‘April Anniversary’ movie for last month, so we’re trying to make good by talking about a movie that’s celebrating an anniversary this week, but also fits in with our new theme for May. Intrigued? No? Well, we still have to finish explaining anyway. This week we’re celebrating the 35th anniversary of the release …

Yo, all you arrestedly developed dorks who listen to this podcast! You ready to re-live some serious childhood shit? This week our April Anniversaries month continues as we celebrate the 35th birthday of GI JOE: THE MOVIE (1987), an animated flick that came out all the way back when we used to feel alive inside. How does it hold up? Probably Snake …

We’ve decided to spend the entire month of April celebrating significant film anniversaries, and this week we had a rollicking (drunken) good time discussing probably the last movie ever where former 80s heartthrob John Cusack came off as likable. That’s right, we’re over here celebrating the 25th anniversary of GROSSE POINTE BLANK, a flick you kno…

Even though we started recording this episode outrageously late and Nate went into the situation outrageously drunk, we still talked for two and a half hours about the movie where Chuck Norris fights a Frankenstein. Who does something like that? Dorks. Dorks is who does something like that. SILENT RAGE (1982)!…

It may have took us three weeks to recover from our St Patrick’s Day hangovers, but we’re back just in time to squeeze one more podcast into our ‘Beware the Sci-Fides of March’ event before the calendar flips over to April. Sorry about not talking about those last two flicks we advertised, but we felt like the pressing matter was shining some light…

‘Beware the Sci-Fides of March.” It’s not just great advice, it’s also the name of our newest, stupid month-long event. For the entirety of March we’re going to be talking about various action-heavy pieces of sci-fi schlock, and to kick the whole thing off we’re diving into an underappreciated and awesome Dolph Lundgren cop movie where he has to bu…

The month of February is coming to an end, so naturally our Happy Burtsday! event has to also come to an end at its most logical conclusion——with an aging Burt Reynolds floundering terribly in the early 90s. We’re capping things off by talking about the infamous joint where he cashed a check by acting opposite of an annoying little kid in the slaps…

February isn’t just the shortest month of the year, it’s also the month that gave us the greatest movie star of all time—Burt Reynolds. Our Happy Burtsday! series has been all about celebrating the man’s life. This week, we’re talking about a total mess of a movie he directed as well as starred in, SHARKY’S MACHINE. It’s got hookers, ninjas, dummie…

Here we are, on the eve of what would have been Burt Reynolds’ birthday and gassy from drinking too much Coors. What would be a more appropriate way for us to spend our time today than to talk about SMOKEY AND THE BANDIT and its ultra-70s experiment in melding together a southern-fried booze running movie and a tobacco-stained trucker movie? Throw …

If he hadn’t passed thanks to an apocalyptic cocktail of however many STDs he contracted over the course of the 70s eventually rotting his body from the inside, Hicksploitation legend Burt Reynolds would have turned 80-something-or-other this month. So, to show our appreciation for his particular brand of masculinity, we’re throwing a month-long pa…

This is a huge episode. We start off with the legend Meat Loaf (RIP) saying a few words about our movie of the week, we go on to do a deep dive on life in 1993, and then Tom Rock (RIP, soon… probably?) joins us for a call-in where he drops some wisdom of his own. What’s the final subject of ‘New Year, Oldest Profession’ month? A flick with a ton of…

A month of movies about hookers just wouldn’t be complete without an appearance by a memorable pimp, and for our money Wings Hauser’s Ramrod in VICE SQUAD is the greatest on-screen pimp of all time. Or, certainly, he’s the pimp with the biggest head. Join us as we talk more early 80s urban sleaze, and Season Hubley getting popped in the head two ti…

CRUISING was a controversial, protested movie when it came out all the way back in 1980, and it seems to have remained an oft-debated subject ever since. Is it demonizing of the NYC gay community, or a humanizing look into a subculture some people never experience? Is it a secret classic in thriller filmmaking or a hot mess that doesn’t even make a…

We’re barreling into 2022 headfirst by getting weird and potentially offending people. January is here, so we’re celebrating with a new theme, ‘New Year, Oldest Profession.’ It’s going to be a whole month where we talk about movies that feature sex workers, which is bound to get uncomfortable and give us bountiful opportunities to stumble into stra…

It’s the last week of Die Hard December, so we’re talking about the greatest DIE HARD ripoff of all time (DIE HARD on a boat), UNDER SIEGE, starring our patron saint Steven Seagal. That’s not all this one has to offer though, it’s also got Gary Busey and Tommy Lee Jones totally wilding out as the bad guys. Also, as a holiday bonus, Tom Rock calls i…

Everybody loves a Christmas episode! We’ve been talking DIE HARD ripoff movies all Die Hard December long, and this week we’ve taken things up a notch by getting drunk and watching the flick right before we started recording. It’s the BOaB Christmas Party, and we’re celebrating by watching Die Hard in a Mall, AKA PAUL BLART: MALL COP. It sounds pre…

We’re getting pretty deep into Die Hard December at this point, which means there’s only a handful of sleeps left until Santa comes. Have you been behaving yourself and keeping up with all your action movie podcasts? I certainly hope so, or the jolly fat man might just fill up your stocking with a bunch of bars of soap and beat the living shit out …

We’re just about waist deep into the holiday season, and so far it’s only led to a handful of mental breakdowns on our parts. That’s a good thing, because we’ve fully committed to watching and talking about DIE HARD ripoff movies for the rest of the calendar year. This week we kept it together long enough to talk turkey about an absolutely ludicrou…

It’s the Christmas Season, so we’ve decided to celebrate by talking all things DIE HARD. You know, because DIE HARD is a Christmas movie and everyone who says it isn’t is a hipster curmudgeon who gets off on peeing in people’s stockings. What this means, practically, is that all Die Hard December long we’re going to be talking about different DIE H…

Due to a bias that he would say is against mafia movies and most other people would say is against Italians, Matt has gone his whole life without ever actually watching THE GODFATHER. Nate has used the apparently semi-tradition of white people marathoning all of the GODFATHER movies on Thanksgiving as an excuse to finally force him into giving it a…

Even though we come out here every damned week and complain about any movie that lasts for longer than 90 minutes, we still had the absolute gall to spend two and a half hours talking about a 90 minute movie this week. What do you expect? We’re pieces of shit. In our defense, we’re being Drama Kings all November long and talking about very serious,…

As the weather turns and people start to over indulge in comfort foods and become weighty in their asses, the BOaB crew has decided to turn to serious, weighty movies for the entire month of November. This week we’re talking about Sylvester Stallone stuffing himself like a Thanksgiving turkey so he can play fat and sad and go fishing for Oscars in …

Not only is it the 200th episode of this prestigious podcast, it’s also the beginning of a new theme month for us, so we decided that we had to go big. We’re going to kick off awards movie season by becoming Drama Kings ourselves, and talking about the sort of manly cops and robbers flicks that leaned heavy on the drama and ended up being respected…

Slashtober comes to its grizzly end as we talk about arguably the best Jason movie ever made, FRIDAY THE 13TH PART VI: JASON LIVES. It’s the one where they finally drop all the bullshit and just turn the hockey mask wearing drowned kid into an unstoppable Frankenstein. And it’s the one that has a bitchin’ Alice Cooper soundtrack. Gather up a pile o…

Praise Satan, it’s the first episode we’ve put together in weeks that didn’t involve technical difficulties! Maybe it’s going to be a happy Halloween after all. If you’re like us, you think heavy metal and horror movies go together like peanut butter and boners, so we’ve decided to keep Slashtober going by talking about an underseen gem where a bur…

There’s a ghost in the machine! Unfortunately, we only have 3/4 of a podcast for you this week because some Gremlins apparently tore the guts out of our recording equipment and the Judgment Day segment didn’t actually get saved. Don’t worry, you didn’t miss much though. Ivo-Cobra8 gave THE DREAM MASTER five ninja stars (under both of his IMDB accou…

October is here and the buildup to Halloween is upon us. This is pretty much always our favorite time of the year, except for the occasional Winter Olympics year where there’s that week where you can watch curling for 12 hours a day, so we’re celebrating by doing an entire month of the most 80s slasher movies that ever 80sed. It’s Slashtober, and f…

How do you cap off an entire month of comedy? You’ve got to talk about one of the most legendary funnymen the Hollywood scene has ever produced… Emilio Estevez. That’s right, last week we talked about Charlie Sheen taking his shot at making people laugh in HOT SHOTS!, so this week we’re answering tit with tat and giving Emilio his time to shine as …

Are you ready for your gut to be busted? We’re deep into our month of action comedies—which we’re calling Just For Laughs, because it’s a term we came up with—and that means it’s time to address the elephant in the room and talk about one of the most highly esteemed on-screen comedians of all-time, Chuck Sheen. It’s the beginning of a two week long…

Last week our schedules went nuts and we missed an episode, so this week we’re dropping a little early as a mea culpa, which is Latin for, “Hey, get off my dick.” September is Just For Laughs month here at BOaB, and we’ve kept things moving by watching another action comedy. This week it’s a Matt O favorite, as his role model and personal favorite …

After a couple weeks of insane scheduling conflicts Nate was left with a tough decision today––use the evening to record a podcast or use the evening to get blind drunk. He decided to do both. We’re kicking off our big month of talking about action comedies, ‘Just For Laughs,’ by discussing one of the most beloved pieces of action comedy weirdness …

It’s been a long intense month of growth here at Baby Oil and Blow, as we’ve been watching chick flicks in an attempt to better understand the female perspective. Is it cheating that our final movie is a MAD MAX film? No. A lot of people have argued that Charlize Theron’s character is the real protagonist, after all. And there’s a scene where a lad…

This deep into our August Chick Flick marathon we thought we needed to turn things up a notch and feature a film starring a lady who literally nobody thinks about when they ponder classic action flicks—Geena Davis. That’s right, Thelma or Louise herself. Things worked out for us though, because not only is THE LONG KISS GOODNIGHT full of all sorts …
