Is It Still Good?

Welcome to Season 2! The film students who refuse to grow up are BACK with their good friend Colby McCollough to discuss Korn's 1998 multiplatinum hit "Follow The Leader." Remember Korn? Not the food, the band. They were the first band to EVER have a music video be "retired" on MTV's TRL. They made dark, ominous metal accessible to millions of fans. And, of course, they went by names like Munky, Head and Fieldy. I mean come on. They were and still are true originals. But listen to the episode to decide for yourself!

We live our lives a quarter mile at a time which is why we're thrilled to put the pedal to the metal this week and discuss Point Break 2 --er, The Fast and the Furious. In honor of the film turning 20 this week (and F9 hitting theaters) we discuss why the original works so well, Vin Diesel & Paul Walker's bromance for the ages and the film's best lines. Oh yeah, we also discuss Dr. Dolittle 2, which had the misfortune of opening against "that little car movie" back in 2001. Woof! SUBSCRIBE on APPLE: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast...

Our 2001 Summer Movie Season Counter Programming Wars continues. In one corner, we have Shrek. You know this movie, you've seen this movie, you probably loved this movie when you were 12. But how does it hold up 20 years later? In the other corner we have Angel Eyes, a Jennifer Lopez cop drama that opened on the same day as Shrek. You don't know this movie, you haven't seen this movie, you probably would hate this movie. But if you love it, please let us know because we'd love to hear from you and examine your brain.

We don't wanna waste your time, pretending that this album is actually better than it is This week we welcome back The Nicks to review Sum 41's 20-year-old firstborn, All Killer No Filler. We discuss the influence of "Fat Lip" and why it still rules - and why the rest of the album never quite reaches those heights. Plus, we try to recite the lyrics by memory and it doesn't go well at all.

Our 2001 Summer Movie Season Counter Programming Wars begins. In one corner, we have The Mummy Returns. A big hit sequel to a big hit remake, Brendan Fraser leads a charismatic cast through London, the desert, and the jungle as the mummy... returns. In the other corner, we have A Knight's Tale, a "Welcome to Hollywood" party for the late great Heath Ledger, headlining his own movie, complete with jousting, generic rock songs, and Paul Bettany's naked butt. We discuss our memories of these films as kids, what makes a good action movie, our love of Brendan Fraser, Oded Fehr, Heath Ledger, Mark Addy & Rufus Sewell, and why these films both made an impression on viewers, the box office, and the world.

As tempted as we are to write this description backwards, we'll spare you in the incomprehensible writing and keep it simple. This week we finally get some professional-sounding audio (yay!) and talk Christopher Nolan's sophomore feature, MEMENTO. Released 20 years ago this past March, we get into the nitty gritty of Nolan's strengths (and weaknesses) as a filmmaker, Michael Mann's influence on his work, and share an exciting update on what we have planned for some upcoming episodes this summer.

“if you believe....that Lizzie is still good.... we don’t got a picture perfect plan!” Join us this week as we head back to the prime Disney Channel days with Lizzie, Gordo & Miranda and discuss the seminal TV hit, “Lizzie McGuire”. We discuss what made this show click, why TV is so different now, and how we wish we had a female guest this week.

You can leave your hat on for this one! This week we travel back to Sheffield, England in 1997 to rediscover the now-certified classic, The Full Monty. Our good friend (and non-accented Brit) Matt O'Leary joins us to discuss why this film was on such heavy rotation in his home when he was 11, plus the still-relevant themes of non-toxic masculinity, body positivity, and male emasculation. And of course, the fact that the film is still all about dudes getting naked - literally and figuratively. If more men saw movies like this, the world would be a better place.

Our love for Jennifer Lopez might cost more than we expected it to, as our affinity for the age-defying diva is tested this week while revisiting her 20-year-old sophomore album, “J.Lo.” We do a deep dive into hits like “Love Don’t Cost a Thing”, “Play” and “I’m Real - Murder Remix” while going on tangents about J.Lo’s acting, Kings of Leon lead singer Caleb Followill’s voice, and the innocent days of going to Sam Goody to buy an album just to listen to one song.

Welcome to a weekend at the movies…20 years ago. This week, we partake in a little counter programming and revisit two films that both opened on February 9th, 2001 - SAVING SILVERMAN and HANNIBAL. Saving Silverman’s demographic was quite literally us when it came out. Hannibal’s was the opposite, but now, we fall perfectly in the center of it. Episodes like this are why we do this show. And we’re gonna make this the start of our Movie Counter Programming series, something we’ll try to do at least once a month. We hope you enjoy!

We enter another dimension this week as 3D Doritos make a tasty comeback for the first time in many many years. Flat McConaughey introduces us to the brand new flavors and opens up a wild chat, ranging from our favorite chips to the time Andrew was almost fired from an internship on an MTV show because he kept sneaking off to the studio store to buy blu-rays. What, they were cheaper there! Grab a bag of these blasts from the flavor past and listen in.

"George had a bogey-flavored one once.” Immortal words spoken by the one & only Ron Weasely, and echoed on our show today as we chow down on Bertie Bott’s Every Flavour Beans. In between dry heaves of swallowing rotten egg- and earthworm-flavored ones, we discuss the mythology of Bertie Bott within the Wizarding World as well as the first time we tried them 20 years ago. This leads to a wide-ranging conversation on Harry Potter, Ashwagandha, meditation, and mental health. To think this all started because of fucking jelly beans.

Harder Better Faster Stronger OR Softer Worse Slower Weaker? For episode 32, we listen to Daft Punk’s Discovery in full, an album hailed as a masterpiece by many that turns 20 this year. Bear went the extra mile and watched the album’s companion film, Interstella 5555: The 5tory of the 5ecret 5tar 5system. What follows is a spirited discussion on what makes Daft Punk so revered, the Cannes Film Festival (where their film premiered in 2003), and why your gut reaction to things usually doesn’t change from childhood to adulthood.

Oh say, can you see, that Inaugurations…are kinda boring? This week, we travel back 20 years to revisit Bush’s Inauguration in glorious standard definition. While we observed that not a ton has changed with these events, enough differences were present during Biden’s inauguration to give one some hope for the future. We also discuss why there were no celebrites present at the 2001 Inauguration, cause what would an American celebration be without CELEBRITIES?!

It's 2021, and our government was just almost overthrown. Needless to say, we have a lot to say about it. In addition, we also talk about our personal 2020s. Even though the year was objectively terrible, we were still able to develop new hobbies, deepen our relationships, and consume more content that we will one day hopefully be nostalgic for.

The holidays are very nearly over, so join the guys as they wrap up (pun very much intended) their Christmas Movies and Christmas Cocktails series with the ultimate adult Christmas movie, Eyes Wide Shut. Stanley Kubrick’s last film was criminally misunderstood when it was first released in 1999, but has since gone on to be greatly appreciated as not just an astounding film, but an erotic Christmas staple among weirdos. Bear and Andrew discuss how they first discovered this nudity-filled opus, the difference between fantasy & Nicole Kidman’s confession, the unfair expectations men put on women in relationships, and their favorite lines from the film that involve the word “dump." Cocktails consumed: pickle juice and whiskey (yes, really) and a beer from the Tree House Brewing Company in Charlton, MA: https://treehousebrew.com SUBSCRIBE on APPLE: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/is-it-still-good/id1515612993 FOLLOW on SPOTIFY: https://open.spotify.com/show/7oIVovp0nftRALm2Cr47zL?si=pemjgEuvTkGaG_B40Fxj8A Website: http://stillgoodshow.com Instagram: @stillgoodshow Twitter: @stillgoodshow

Merry Christmas Eve eve! Relax by the fire with your favorite nostalgia geeks as they discuss the the the…THE GRINCH! Bear and Andrew welcome dear friend Kahlil Maskati back to the show to chop it up about the 2000 Jim Carrey Christmas staple. They have a blast chatting about the behind-the-scenes drama with Jim Carrey's make-up, their favorite quotes, and all the hidden sexual innuendos that they never noticed before - and yes, there are several. Plus, thanks to Kahlil, Hood’s “Golden Egg Nog” - which Bear and Andrew hadn’t even heard of before - makes a special appearance. No cocktails were consumed during this episode - we recorded this at 10 in the morning for Chrissakes.

Welcome back ya filthy animals. The guys discuss Home Alone 2 this week with their pal, Biniam Bizuneh. You may recognize Biniam from his successful stand-up career or hilarious viral sketches like “An Antidepressant Ad for Black People." But what you may not know about Biniam is that he spent his entire childhood watching Home Alone 2 without ever seeing or being aware of its predecessor. This creates for a very funny conversation about the shocking violence in this franchise, the connection between Macaulay Culkin in these films and the R-rated thriller “The Good Son”, and the Mandela Effect. This one is wild. Enjoy. The cocktail of choice this week is called, you guessed it, a Home Alone.

We’re back with another edition of Christmas Movies and Christmas Cocktails, and this one is a special one. For the guys' 25th (!) episode, they welcome actor, writer, and Chicago hunk Michael Vlamis to the show to discuss the Chicago Christmas classic Home Alone. You may know Michael Vlamis from his starring role on the hit CW series Roswell, New Mexico, but not long ago he was a struggling actor trying to find his place in the world, not unlike Kevin McCallister. The three old friends discuss how the message of Home Alone weirdly ties into Vlamis’ journey to Roswell, Daniel Stern’s iconic scream (and his resemblance to Bear’s dad), how cool it was being a Chicago kid & discovering John Hughes’ films, plus a live update from Vlamis himself on how COVID has affected shooting film and TV shows today. And don’t worry, Roswell fans: Vlamis drops a few tiny hints about what to expect from his character in season three. You don’t wanna miss this one!

Ho ho DEAD! For the first week of their Christmas Movies series, Bear and Andrew discuss the cult classic Black Christmas (the original from 1974, not the remake you figgy puddings.) They chat about whether or not this holiday horror hybrid belongs in your Christmas (or Halloween) staple, why Billy Bob Thornton is just as good as Leo and Christian Bale (he’s not in the movie; Andrew is just a big fan), and wrap it up (how about that pun!) with an appreciation of the late director of the film, Bob Clark. Also, for each episode of this series, the boys will be enjoying a holiday themed cocktail. This week, they’re each sipping (you guessed it) a Black Christmas.

Bottoms up! Join Bear and Andrew for a drink or four as they get a little drunk and discuss Blackout Wednesday, AKA The Wednesday Night Before Thanksgiving When Everyone Goes to the Bars. The guys take shots and shotgun beers safely at home this year and reminisce about Blackout Wednesdays past, particularly the first time they came home from college for Thanksgiving & how impactful that time was. They also stumble upon the revelation that they had the same first R-rated-movie-in-a-theater experience with Michael Mann’s ALI. And just when you think the episode is over, the guys return hungover and groggy the following morning to really assess whether or not this tradition is still good.

*An EMERGENCY EPISODE is when the guys happen to revisit the same thing at the same time and NEED to talk about it, whether it’s good, bad or somewhere in between.* The guys get Minnesota Nice in their FIRST EVER Emergency Episode to discuss the Coen Brothers’ 1996 classic, Fargo, which they both watched this past weekend. They discuss how the Coen Brothers are adept visual storytellers, how scary the movie actually is, and, yes, the significance of the heavily-debated Mike Yanagita scene.

Sweet potatoes, pecans, marshmallows, oh my! Thanksgiving sides are back with a vengeance this week, as the guys chow down (reluctantly) on some homemade Sweet Potato Casserole. While they attempt to stomach this side dish-that-is-really-a-dessert, they discuss its problematic origins, the negative side of tradition, and what growing a mustache for the month of November really means.

Gobble Gobble! After a two week vacation that involved zero actual vacation, the boys are back to discuss Thanksgiving side dishes. Up first: cranberry sauce. Cranberry sauce didn’t really pop until the 1940s, but Bear and Andrew argue that it may be the most necessary side of all. They eat homemade cranberry sauce live on air, discuss the importance of its temperature, and have a nuanced discussion about the texture of tomatoes.

Double double, toil and not a lot of trouble but hey we had to rhyme right? LOL! For episode 20 - and the final episode of the Halloween-themed month - you get two for the price of none. To start, the guys listen to "The Monster Mash" live on air in full for the first time in maybe ever. They dance, lip sync (poorly), and critique. After that, they have a spirited conversation about Rob Reiner's 1990 film adaptation of Stephen King's "Misery". They discuss the horror genre as a whole, what makes a great director, and why "Misery" is a great film for both Halloween and Christmas.

Man we’re glad we called that guy. The guys welcome good friend Oren Peleg to the show today to discuss Adam Sandler’s first starring vehicle, Billy Madison. An interesting debate ensues about whether or not kids today would like the movie, as well as how necessary the “Sandler Voice” is to the character of Billy. All we can say is, abee-doobee.

If the apocalypse comes, beep us. For episode 11, Bear and Andrew are introduced - for the first time ever - to Buffy the Vampire Slayer, with the help of their friend and Buffy superfan, Rhenna Sorenson. Rheanna talks about what it was like discovering Joss Whedon’s classic at the ripe age of four-years-old and why it still matters so much to her today. Plus, Rheanna sings an original song that she wrote as a kid in tune with the Buffy theme song. Somebody call Capitol Records and get this gal a deal.

Everybody grow up, it’s time to Jam now. For episode 10, Bear and Andrew welcome Aaron Lamarr Burleson and Elizabeth Franco to revisit the Michael Jordan/Looney Tunes movie/endorsement/big long commercial, Space Jam. Aaron is an accomplished writer & actor who is an alumni of the Sundance Institute (along with Andrew) and Liz works for CNN Films developing important shows like United Shades of America with W. Kamau Bell. The four pals have a spirited discussion about movie spoilers, the subtle misogyny of 90s pop culture, and the importance of having a Black role model like Michael Jordan - then and now. This one goes deep. Enjoy!

What's our age again? Bear and Andrew return to their insubordinate adolescence and revisit blink-182's classic third album, Enema of the State, for episode 9. They are joined by their two good friends - and SoCal natives who know all things blink - Nick Stilwell and Nick Coll. The boys discuss listening to the edited version of the album, seeing them live on their 2009-2010 reunion tour (twice), and what in the hell that "Apple Juice" line from Adam's Song really meant.

At ease, Hilary Duff fans. This week on another fun chat, the guys welcome multihyphenate Ansley Gordon to discuss one of her favorite Disney Channel Original Movies - and Hilary Duff’s first starring role - Cadet Kelly. Ansley talks about how Cadet Kelly influenced her taste in the films she watches and now writes & acts in for channels like Hallmark, as well as growing up in Florida and waterskiing over alligators. True story. Plus, Andrew finally breaks out his Bear impression - the first of many, as long as Bear doesn’t get upset.

It took way more than six whole hours and five long days since the release of Josie and the Pussycats for Bear and Andrew to finally see the film about the punk rock prom queen and her rock star friends. On this detailed, layered and enjoyable episode, the guys welcome their second guest, the wonderful Sasha Patpatia. Sasha grew up idolizing Josie and has since gone on to have a very successful career in the music business, working for Warner Bros. Records and for A-list film composers. Now, she has her own business, Sasha Patpatia Coaching, where she coaches creatives on how to not fuck up their lofty career choices. The guys and Sasha discuss the parallels between Josie and the Pussycats and the music insdustry today, how ridiculous Hollywood is, and the very first piece of writing a 12-year-old Sasha published on the internet (hint: a movie review about a certain boy wizard.)

This week, the guys solve the unsolved mystery of whether or not Unsolved Mysteries holds up like it did when they were kids - specifically Bear, who grew up being terrified by it on a weekly basis. And yes, Andrew is still on his dumb cleanse; the only mystery there is why in the hell he’s still doing it. Plus, we explore whether or not Bear broke his toe.

Reader beware! Seriously. Beware of Goosebumps if you’re over the age of 12. The guys discuss the classic RL Stine book series for kids and how it’s the prime example of what this podcast is all about. Plus, Andrew reveals that he’s doing a health cleanse, which is almost as horrifying as a Goosebumps tale.

Bedtime! Or is it!? This week, the boys get comfortable(-ish) in their PJs and have a Pajama Day. This leads to a surprisingly thoughtful & personal discussion on puberty, mental health, and how pajamas make you feel as an adult versus as a kid. Don’t miss it!

A-hyuck! In episode three, the boys are joined by avowed A Goofy Movie aficionado Kahlil Maskati, who has ranked this Disney cult-classic as his number six favorite film of all time. Gorsh! We discuss our favorite moments from the film, what in the hell Goofy is, and whether or not those FBI warnings on VHS tapes from the 90s really meant anything. Here's the link for Jordan Calhoun's article that Bear references: https://blacknerdproblems.com/20-years-ago-a-goofy-movie-became-the-blackest-most-underrated-nerd-classic-of-all-time/

Ba ba ba ba ba… are we still loving’ it? You’ll find out as Bear and Carter dig into their first Happy Meals since the 90s, live on air. We discuss the history of the Happy meal, the nutrition facts past and present, our own childhood experiences at Mickey D’s, and yes, of course, the toys. Those goddamn toys.

The boys count to 100 and play a classic game of hide and seek. We also discuss the history of the game, both worldwide and personal, as well as the Italian world hide and seek championship. We actually did play a couple rounds of real hide and seek as adults for this episode. Results were mixed! You're welcome!
