Giddy up, y'all! It's our rootin' tootinest episode yet! This week, we're covering John Maclean's 2015 Western, Slow West.

Ayyy! We're doing the most honorable thing over here! This week, we're talking about J.C. Chandor's period crime drama, A Most Violent Year.

KG! You know there was no way we were gonna go this long without talking about THE most talked about A24 film of 2019 (maybe ever?), Josh and Benny Safdie's gambling thriller, Uncut Gems. We're joined by our resident New York, smart phone, and helicopter expert, Alex Rivera (@carlsice on IG). We talk about Adam Sandler's dramatic work, the Safdie's use of non actors, and mostly Julia Fox for an hour and a half. Heads up, we recorded this in December so that's why it feels so horribly dated. Listen for yourself to see our weird dated takes!

This week, we honor the late Burt Reynolds with a Lifetime Achievement podcast episode. We're covering Adam Rifkin's Burt Reynolds meditation, The Last Movie Star.

They're coming to get you, Hey24! This week, we're jumping into Jeff Baena's zom rom com _Life After Beth_.

End Song: Big House - Death Grips
Throw another shrimp on the barbara! This week, the crew attempts to break down David Michod’s bleak dystopian thriller, The Rover.

This episode is all about being yourself. This week, the Hey24 crew is joined by 8th grade graduate, Laura Townsend, to talk about Bo Burnham's 2018 coming of age film, _Eighth Grade_. This episode tackles all sorts of important issues like how social media changed since we were in middle school, post it note affirmations, and Laura's obsession with movie theater popcorn. We know not everyone has been able to see this movie yet, but this episode is very sweet and funny and think it's worth listening even if you haven't seen it and will only get better once you've seen it. End Song: Ooh La La - Faces
Oooh baby, that's 10 episodes! This week, we're commando crawling our way through Gillian "Hard G" Robespierre's 2014 romantic comedy, _Obvious Child_. We talk about stand up comedy in film, how to pronounce gillian (and still fuck it up a bunch), and whether or not vegans like Bob's Burgers. Please hit us up if you're vegan and like Bob's Burgers. End Song: No Children - The Mountain Goats
_Sippin sizzurp in my ride, like Three 6 Now I'm feelin so fly like a C6_ This week, we're really testing our audience loyalty by breaking down Stephen Knight's 2014 claustrophobic drama, _Locke._ We discuss where this movie fits in the Mad Max timeline, how _Locke_ is low-key better as a stage play, and we introduce a new grading system! This is my favorite episode yet. It's up to you to figure out who uploads the episodes to find out who I am. I'll never tell. End Song: Locked Up - Akon
Frank Sinatra Joke This week, we sink into the oozey depths of Jonathan Glazer's 2014 erotic sci-fi film, _Under The Skin_.

This week, we're joined by opposite of an enemy, Sam Smetter, to talk about Denis Villeneuve's 2013 psychological thriller, _Enemy._ We run the gamut on spider theories, bell theories, and turning this movie into a romantic comedy. This is a sound fx heavy ep. Like always, spoilers. But tbh this is a great episode so listen anyway. End Song: Energy - Drake
*cluck* This week, we're talking about A24's latest film, Ari Aster's horror drama, _Hereditary._ It's a spooky ol' time. We talk about lore, gore, and seminal rock group, the Naked Brothers Band.

Dear Dean of Admissions: This week we talk about James Pondsoldt's 2013 coming of age film, _The Spectacular Now._ We discuss Miles Teller's face, Judd Appatow films, and this entire movie.

Love, Hey24 End Song: Swimming Pools (Drank) - Kendrick Lamar
Nancy Jo, this is Hey24 calling. I'm calling to let you know that this week we discussed Sofia Coppola’s crime satire “The Bling Ring”. There’s many things that we talk about that happen in the movie, like the band Sleigh Bells, car crash camera angles, and 2009 Facebook... “FILIMING IN PARIS HILTON’S ACTUAL HOUSE” EVERYTIME YOU FUCKING YELL, I HAVE TO RE-WRITE THE DESCRIPTION! Nancy Jo, this is Hey24 calling... End Song: Tell Em - Sleigh Bells
Notice us and take our hands as we dive deep into Harmony Korine's 2013 film, _Spring Breakers_. Why are we strangers when we talk about Buffalo Wild Wings, Gucci Mane's filmography, and Jon tells his own crazy Spring break story. End Song: Spring Break Anthem - The Lonely Island
We back, baby! In this episode we discuss Sally Potter's _Ginger & Rosa._ We break down the actors' nationalities, gush about how good Elle Fanning is, and talk about _Avengers: Infinity War_.

On our first episode, we dive into A24's first release, Roman Coppola's _A Glimpse Inside the Mind of Charles Swan III._ We discuss Charlie Sheen's career, the other movies this is an obvious homage to, and the fact that Francis Ford Coppola probably owns this movie.
