Humbly submitted for Ben’s approval: 1980’s “The Final Countdown.” The USS Nimitz goes through some kind of wormhole and ends up off the coast of Pearl Harbor on December 6th, 1941. Tomcats vs. Zeros. Kirk Douglas, Martin Sheen… it’s basically Top Gun meets WWII!
And it’s streaming with ads on Amazon. Might make for a perfect early December movie!
McBain much harder watch than Top Dog? I bailed halfway through watching McBain straight and watched the second half with Rifftrax
In McBain, Santos in Columbia is a spitting image of Matt Gourley
Segal + Lebrock + Champagne https://youtu.be/mD0kYwGM-xw?si=hjwBWtqgzTc51seg
I salute you for unleashing this on us. Jesus Christ this needs to be the cold open video for Shadow Wolves. I don't even know where to begin, other than I was kind of hoping he would taunt Kelly LeBrock with "You think you're a tough guy with that bottle? Come on Mr. Big Bottle, why don't you fight like a man".
Top dog is more of a mess than Jake Wilder’s house
Unrelated, but early candidate for being the most ABZ-coded modern film of 2026. Have y'all seen the movie Primate or it's trailer? Rabid primate named Ben that communicates with his adopted family via Congo Amy voice tech.
i liked it!
that’s a no for me top dog
Spoiler Alert: Top Dog is TERRIBLE.
I laughed at the puppet getting thrown off the boat
I haven't watched Top Dog since I was a kid. I look forward to tarnishing my memories of a serious cop movie.
“Stang how good did that dog food look?”
Jeezuz - Steven Seagal looks terrible. He looks like a manatee.
That colon is ready to burst like a pimple on that ass he’s sitting on all day.
Aw shit, McBain! Aka the other Christopher Walken movie about mercenary stuff
Rolling Thunder is so great -- earnest action movie with one of the top braless/erect nipple ratio of scenes for the era.
The Rules that constrain other men mean nothing.....to MCBAIN! Anyone else see the edit of the McBain movie pieced together from the various Simpson episodes?

looking forward to finally getting that jar of silver dollars back
Gabrus must be thrilled to know that he looks better than Seagal.
At first I thought it was Kevin Smith circa late 90s. Who also looks way better than Seagal.
Time to break out my Top Dog DVD
I’ve been hoping for rolling thunder for a while now! I’m glad I picked up the 4K disc from KL a little while back!
The shortness of these recent episodes and my necessity to disassociate from the in-laws over the holidays caused me to power through every podcast I had on my phone. Ended up going back through “The Rodge Tapes.” Thanks for that Ben. Great concept, and I’m not ashamed to say I made it entirely through the Gabrus episode (first one I listened to, naturally) and thought, “How the hell have I never heard of this movie?!” I was equal parts laughing and impressed (and slightly embarrassed) when I figured it out. 🤣
The synopsis for Top Dog on IMDB had me dying, it sure seems like Reno the dog is getting top billing over Chuck.

Okay, FINE! I'll watch The Player for the 12th time.
Woe be to those that suffer McBain. It's not fun.
Couldn’t disagree more.
I’m psyched to see Riverbend on the list.

Steve Jamesuary confirmed
Never heard of Riverbend, but it looks amazing and YouTube might be only place to find it
I rewatched those first 3 Transformers episodes recently because I’ve been reading the new comic series, upon Ben’s recommendation. It’s fun shit.
Yesss Rolling Thunder
🦅 the claw!
