Eye of the Tiger (1986)

Listening to this on the day news broke about Busey's s/a allegations. Great ep!

I'm super glad that I listened to the Friday the 13th episode before this one. It made the hiking joke well worth it.

The Boyz are right. If this movie had a better score it would be an action classic

Gabrus I need food where do I eat tonight?

The Star War IX that the other guy was planning sounded pretty batshit and might have been a total disaster, but at least it could have been interesting or entertaining. Man that movie was depressing. 2.5 hours to bury the franchise.

I teach nunchucks to ABZ for free! No charge for gabrus cause he will be test dummy for Ben and stanger to test abilities… call me I drive to Ben house for book delivery! Ciao!

Scorsese comes across as a crotchety old man in the article they were referencing. He and the entire audience talked exclusively about about the movie while they were watching, yeah right.

“You in your something white uniform.” Extremely excited for A Few Good Men.

I have a set of nunchucks my dad made when he was in his 20s. You’d think he must know how to use them? No, he was a lifeguard while going to school to be a paramedic/fireman. It was the 70s and he must have just seen Game of Death.

Seymore Cassel is funny in Beer League. I knew I recognized him but had to ask IMDB for help. Watched Beer League a bunch in my college years.

I need a crossover sequel with Gary’s truck and Chucks Dirt Bike from Delta Force with a cameo from the super truck in Tango and Cash

Great ep, from the title I thought it was Sinbad and the Eye of the Tiger ...maybe June is Tiger month?

The turbo tunnel reference gets me every time. That battle toads pause music was so good

Hell yeah

You should check out Nunchuck Tylor. He does Instagram reels and TikTok's where he does nunchucks and sings motivational songs about being your friend and I think it would be really good for you guys. Maybe he'll even send you some instructional videos.

There's a guy around here that sprays fields with a biplane and it's awesome to watch. I'm with Rodgers, I've seen guys spraying with proper dusters, helicopters, even big drones. As far as cool factor the Biplane leaves them all in the dust.

Did stanger ever come back after being done on it now?

The last action scene of the movie was SO water world stunt show and I loved every second!

I became a zombie squad member last August. I’ve listened like a former alcoholic . Only got 50 more episodes to go, and I can cancel this shit!

I don't think anyone mentioned this: the scene that I rewound four or five times is a very minor one but made me laugh over and over. The sheriff and the one deputy always with him are in his office, watching the TV news, and getting pissed off. The sheriff, almost muttering to himself, says something like "I'll show you who's the sheriff," then very slowly and silently walks toward his desk, then pauses for a beat and looks back, then resumes walking to the desk, again muttering "I'll show you who's sheriff." The context seems like it should have been a huge, emoting over-performance, but it was played super small and laconic. Hilarious.

I will actually be learning to use Nunchucks next month or maybe sooner once I can get a schedule worked out with my coach. Give me a couple of months and I might be able to give an you all an answer.

“The blacker the Gary the sweeter the Buse” got a spit-take from me

a 'paramedic van'. sometimes referred to as an ambulance. great episode.

Re: the child actor discussion, Gary Busey actually did tickle me, when I was technically still a child (17). My freshman year at NYU they were filming Celebrity Appr*ntice at the Famiglia on campus and I met him and he tickled my side when we took a picture together. It became my fun fact in icebreaker activities for the rest of college lol Edit: for the record, it was definitely more of a kooky dad vibe not a creepy thing

Holy shit I love the “A Few Good Trucks” part! 🤣🤣

I recognized the daughter from Jaws 4, Judith Barsi, very tragic story.

The Vulcan "two in the pink, *two* in the stink" is such a perfect joke. As usual, Gabrus = genius.

in a movie littered with bizarre choices, casting Yaphet Kotto is certainly one of them. I feel he was done dirty, but maybe "grooving" to the not-James Brown-song-from-Rocky IV was his choice?

I wore a Hawaiian shirt and a bolo tie to a wedding yesterday, lol

The first fifteen minutes were good enough that I thought this might be another Straight Time. The biker/nurse attack was were I marked the turn.

The "A Few Good Trucks" bit at the end of the episode had me laughing so hard I had to pause it to not look crazy in public

Good morning. Great episode. I am not a Nunchuk expert. Thanks. Bye.

The people behind this must have worked backwards from "Eye of the Tiger" and made the common mistake of confusing Rocky with Rambo -- the vibe is really corn-fed, over-xeroxed First Blood.

First, it's "nunchaku." Second, even with a light wood training set, don't practice indoors: https://usanunchaku.com/product-category/real-nunchaku/paulownia/ .

Watched Rookie of the Year with the kids last night, their first time. The two things that really stood out were Busey with a mustache as the washed up pitcher / mentor was quite a look and that doctors being hit in the face and saying “funky buttlovin!” still makes 11 year olds cackle with laughter.

Lost it at "Vulcan love gun." Funniest podcast to ever be. I'll never be done on this pod

A film that was more fun in theory then practice. But at least it opened and closed to "Eye of the Tiger". And it anticipated the semetex up the arse scene in Man on Fire by a few decades. Shame about the rest of it.

If you guys don't start selling dildos that look like a cartoonish stick of dynamite after this one, you just hate money.

Busey’s teeth are nightmare fuel.

Busey was an amazing actor...
