Rogers doesn’t pull out and kills his unborn kids
Hell yeah
Finished ‘Red Carpet’ and it was fantastic. Coming back to this thread to say thanks for the rec, super interesting and full of insane tidbits like Jackie Chan being in the newspaper when he was born because he was 12 lbs.
"The Time of My Life" is a song where two people keep reassuring each other that they're having a good time
Wyatt Russell is awesome in Under the Banner of Heaven. When he yells he sounds JUST like his da.
So, the T.O. "Karen" video is a little long, but I'm sure the Boyz will enjoy it.
If the number of movies featuring abortion as a major plot point isn’t already small enough, I bet a big chunk of those are shitty Christian movies, and that the percentage of those has gone up even further since that article or whatever was written.
Trump was bitching about the plumbing a lot. And after his term we find out it's because he kept clogging the pipes flushing evidence and stuff
Dirty Dancing is the origin on my online name: Johnny Tubesocks
Hey Gabrus tell your network TRU Tv to release all the 101 Places episodes I’ve seen episode 1 so many times . I went Sling blue plan app so I got Funny Jon and NFL Network for the win
Stangers like the wind… HEs OUT OF MY LEAGUE!!!
Kaye gets an abortion in The Godfather 2. I assume that would have been considered contemporary at the time it came out.
We all excited for Heat 2? Thought it would come up on this shadow wolves
Did you listen to the WTF episode with Michael Mann? Maron tries to start something with the Friedkin/Mann legal action over To Live and Die in L.A. and Mann just ignores him, it was super awkward.
Any fellow custodians seen the ABZ SubReddit? Its kinda weird.
You're weird.
Jonny stole this one with “meat and tomatoes”, “isn’t her mother, Dr. Ruth?” and bringing it home with the scumbag business at the end. Never thought about what a scumbag actually is before
Looks like Stanger's grandma is in the news: https://www.vice.com/en/article/wxnnqw/mexico-dick-tombstone
Commented on the person who posted about it, but just want to add to the convo, Never Rarely Sometimes Always is an amazing movie about a young woman getting an abortion. One of my favorite films of the past few years. I love how it just has you live with the characters, judgment free. Not a bad gritty New York movie either weirdly enough. I hope people check it out. Also, adding to the chorus of fuck yeah Gabrus, so happy for him and his show, it's a riot.
I lost it at Gabrus’ primal scream during the wedding lift story.
More primal screams are good!
Just picked up Herzog's book last weekend, excited to read it
You know, out of all the funny and dopey stuff he says on that call, the thing that strikes me the oddest is the President of the United States talking about "when I get home from work."
Greatly enjoyed 101 Places with a fellow Shadow Wolf last week
My dad loved the clip of the guys talking about his callsign. Very cool to be able to share with him! He also says other names at the time included: Snake (b/c he was a "bullshitter"), Brillo (fuzzy hair), and Smut (no explanation provided)
Smut is a pretty great one
There was abortion in Deadwood.
Watched the LL Cool J Unplugged as a kid with my older brother and that reveal of the deodorant in his armpit hair is burned into my memory. Glad someone else remembers it :)
2 voicemails from Milwaukee today. As a fellow Milwaukeean maybe the next live show should be here? Thoughts?
Milwaukee's a dump.
I watched the fake Twister before the real one, and strangely I think it was in school in the mid/late-90s. I liked it at the time but was disappointed that it wasn’t the real Twister I’d seen ads for. When I finally watched the real one and realized it was all about releasing those stupid pods, I was even more disappointed.
In hindsight this comment is terribly boring
damn hearing them talk about the biz, so depressing. every job is like that though, nobody wants to get in trouble and make waves. /r/workreform
Just want to say that I really love this podcast and The Boyz are all fucking great. On the Point Break episode all the impressions of the Presidents and all the jokes just had me cracking up. Then hearing Gabrus talk about 101 Places to Party Before You Die and the everyone just being into it and happy and proud. This podcast is literally something that I look forward to every Monday and I hope it never ends. Thanks for the hundreds of hours of entertainment. Also I do agree. The Old Man got boring. I bailed after 3 episodes.
I teared up at the end of this movie, too. I can't give a good reason for it. I thought the song was terrific, Jennifer Grey was such a sweetheart in this movie, and Patrick Swayze undeniably has something special.
JFC didn’t think I’d instantly burst out crying listening to this ep at 10:21 AM, but hearing the emotions in Gabrus’ voice re: “your dad would be proud” … but I’m bawling. Really enjoying 101 Places to Party Before you Die.
our generation was so fucked up, I tell my kids as many times as I can how much I love them
Holy shit, I just watched Vestron Twister like 3 days ago. It was absolutely terrible. Not even HDS was able to save it….
My wife went into labor a few hours after we watched dirty dancing for the first time. Thoughts?
Love the user name, i dont know if it would make the first law books better or a lot better if he had wieners for fingers
We need to get Rodgers a helper monkey so he can get local audio recording working
I don't know what's going on there. It's not awful, but I would love it to be resolved. Ben's voice deserves better audio quality.
Never thought Action Boyz would connect with me having an MA in abortion history.
Not that it matters much, but BTK stood for "bind, torture, kill," not burn.
I wisch the boyth would be nither to therial killerth
Stanger articulated the exact reason I can’t stand Marvel movies. I don’t understand why people can’t accept that something they find entertaining doesn’t make it a masterpiece. It’s ok to admit the thing you like isn’t top quality, but still enjoyable. Also, I love Stanger.
I'm wondering who praises Marvel movies like they're works of art, I don't ever seen unabashed praise on anything that I'm on
Lol I love BTS and I’ve never seen Bull Durham
So happy for Gabrus finding/creating this travel show that is a display of so many elements we love about him.
As someone who's just a fan, its weird bein this happy for him hah. But it really is a hilarious show that highlights his great qualities. Glad they discussed it this ep
Not a contemporary woman, but Cabaret (1972) has a major abortion plot beat.
And has got Joel Grey in it, Jennifer Grey's dad.
ABZ Library: https://www.goodreads.com/list/show/162873.The_Action_Boyz_Library 1 book added ("The Church of Baseball" - Ron Shelton)
I added them, but I try not to clutter the list with too many sequels. So just Miami Blues instead of every Hoke Mosely book, etc.
The way Swayze wears those high-waisted Matador pants changed me as a young girl....
Big search spike for "Vampire Girls of Milwaukee" online, today.
Was it Ving Rhames or Rannazzisi that told Gabrus that Don King story?
Could have the movie titles added to the Shadow Wolves episode titles, make it a little easier to tell them apart/search for? Retroactive would be great, but even just going forward I’d appreciate it.
Congrats Gabrus!! Solid episode all around. Abortion is part of Inside Llewyn Davis.
Nice to hear my favorite podcasters acknowledge how crazy this abortion ruling is and i genuinely mean that. Best $8 i spend a month. Stangerbot kisses to everyone 💋
The LBJ opener made me miss my Grandpa.
I think about LL Cool J's armpit chunks at least once a year since I saw it as a teenager. I'll never forget.
core memory unlocked
Obvious Child is about getting an abortion. But yeah, not a lot.
I was an extra in the short film that became Obvious Child.
Anyone else catch the Dirty Dozen reference in this week's Better Call Saul?
I did, yeah, I loved it - perfect for Saul, who's kind of a movie buff
Rodgers and Stanger praising Gabrus was all heartwarming and shit.
Big Jon is up in that big dojo in the sky with Patrick Swayze bragging about his kid’s show and telling Patrick he wasn’t a believable fighter in Roadhouse.
ARE YOU A BAD ENOUGH DUDE TO MAKE THE DRUNK PRESIDENT SOME PANTS? Edit: Never Rarely Sometimes Always is a really good recent abortion movie. But again, like the one Rodgers was referencing (4 Months, 3 Weeks, 2 Days), it's about a teenager in rural Pennsylvania who has to go to New York to get one because it's impossible where she lives.
I never log into Patreon, but Never Rarely Sometimes Always is one of my absolute favorite films of the past few years, so I came here to comment about it regarding their talk about abortion movies. It's such an amazing film.
I love the action boyz 😘😘😘
