Podcasts about Big D

This week, Shat The Movies tackles one of the most bafflingly successful high-concept comedies of the '80s: Twins, the movie that asked, "What if Arnold Schwarzenegger and Danny DeVito were genetically engineered brothers?" and somehow convinced the world to buy a ticket. Gene and Big D revisit Ivan Reitman's unlikely buddy comedy to examine Arnold playing against type as a naive, hyper-intelligent gentle giant, while DeVito leans hard into sleaze, scams, and short-man rage. The guys debate whether the fish-out-of-water humor still works, unpack the film's bizarre science experiment premise, and marvel at how much charm carries a plot that makes absolutely no sense. From the stolen car hustle to the desert bonding trip and that wildly convenient third-act reunion, Twins swings big on heart—even when the genetics are pure fantasy.

This week, Shat The Movies heads behind the Iron Curtain—or at least a Zucker-Abrahams-Zucker version of it—with Top Secret!, the absurdist spy spoof that introduced the world to Val Kilmer as a legitimately charismatic movie star who could also sing, dance, and commit fully to absolute nonsense. Long before Top Gun or The Doors, Kilmer was playing it dead serious in a movie where cows wear boots and visual gags never stop firing. Gene and Big D break down how Top Secret! feels like the forgotten middle child between Airplane! and The Naked Gun, debate whether the joke density is impressive or exhausting, and marvel at Kilmer's willingness to anchor chaos with charm. Along the way, they revisit the underwater bar fight, backward bookstore scene, relentless wordplay, and why this movie rewards obsessive rewatching more than almost any comedy of its era. Is Top Secret! peak parody—or a cult classic that only works if you surrender completely to the bit? Latrine!

This week, Shat The Movies parks the surveillance van and cracks open Stakeout, the 1987 buddy-cop hit that proved Richard Dreyfuss could be both wildly neurotic and a believable romantic lead. Gene and Big D revisit this Reagan-era crowd-pleaser to figure out how a movie about police spying on a civilian somehow became a rom-com, a workplace comedy and an action-thriller all at once. The guys dig into Dreyfuss's escalating obsession, Emilio Estevez's mustachioed energy, and how the film casually treats stalking, harassment and undercover ethics as punchlines. They break down hot crooks, the very loose definition of "professional boundaries," and why Madeleine Stowe's character exists mostly to react to men behaving badly. Along the way, they debate whether Stakeout works because of its chemistry—or in spite of everything happening onscreen. Is Stakeout a charming artifact from a time when movies trusted charisma over logic, or just proof that '80s law enforcement comedies lived in a completely different moral universe?

The name Tina Adair has become synonymous with excellence among female vocalists in bluegrass music. Her family band, The Adairs, gave Tina her first introduction to the industry, and at just 17, she signed a recording contract with Sugar Hill Records. Her first album, Just You Wait And See, was released in '97, produced by Jerry Douglas and featuring such luminaries as Chris Thile, Bryan Sutton, Aubrey Haynie, Viktor Krauss, Charlie Cushman, Keith Little, and Alan O'Bryant. The project was a success and garnered praise from the radio and critics. Since then, Tina's career has been a nonstop, high-speed freight train of excitement and success, producing her first hit solo records, All You Need and Born Bad, during which time she also attended and graduated from Belmont University in Nashville, TN. Adair ultimately became the Director of Advising in the Mike Curb College of Entertainment and Music Business at Belmont, and still works there today. SponsorsThis podcast is brought to you in part by Big D's Q.

This week, Shat The Movies heads into the Pacific Northwest wilderness with Shoot to Kill, the late-'80s thriller that blends serial killers, mountain survival, and peak "competent adult movie" energy. Starring Sidney Poitier, Tom Berenger, and Kirstie Alley, this 1988 sleeper feels like the kind of grown-up studio thriller Hollywood simply doesn't make anymore. Gene and Big D break down Poitier's no-nonsense authority, Berenger's quietly unhinged menace, and Kirstie Alley's refreshingly capable romantic lead. Along the way, they discuss outdoorsy masculinity, Reagan-era law enforcement vibes, and why this movie works so well despite flying completely under the pop-culture radar. Is Shoot to Kill an overlooked gem of '80s thrillers—or just a solid, workmanlike chase movie elevated by great casting and real stakes? Lace up your hiking boots and find out.

This week, Shat The Movies heads to rural Iowa for Field of Dreams, the baseball fantasy that turns whispered voices, cornfields and unresolved daddy issues into cinematic magic. This episode is especially meaningful as it marks the first episode edited by our first-ever intern, Elias, officially ushering in a new era for the show. If you build it… apparently Elias will cut it. Gene and Big D revisit Kevin Costner's earnest everyman performance, debate whether this movie is genuinely profound or expertly engineered emotional manipulation, and confront the fact that Field of Dreams hits very differently depending on how close you are to your dad—and your mortality. Along the way, they break down ghost ballplayers, inscrutable cosmic rules, and why this film dares you not to cry in the final five minutes. Is Field of Dreams a timeless American fairy tale—or just a very well-lit guilt trip wrapped in a baseball movie? Either way, it's one for the books… and the interns.

Shat The Movies unsheathes the katana and heads to modern-day Japan for The Hunted, a mid-'90s action oddity that asks a very important question: What if Christopher Lambert was a reluctant samurai caught in a centuries-old ninja blood feud? Released in 1995 and promptly forgotten, this movie blends corporate intrigue, mystical warrior clans, and neon-lit Tokyo alley fights into one very strange package. Gene and Big D break down Lambert's perpetual confusion, Joan Chen's elegant menace, and the film's commitment to taking ancient honor codes extremely seriously—despite feeling like it was shot between episodes of Highlander. Along the way, they debate whether The Hunted is an underrated cult action flick or just a slick-looking B-movie that never quite finds its footing. Behold The Hunted, a hidden gem of '90s action cinema and proof that not every movie needs ninjas, boardrooms and spiritual destiny all in the same script.

This week, Shat The Movies heads to Prohibition-era Chicago with Brian De Palma's The Untouchables, a glossy crime epic that somehow combines operatic violence, moral absolutism, and one of the most iconic staircases in movie history. Featuring Kevin Costner at his most upright, Sean Connery at his most Oscar-winning, and Robert De Niro going full scarface-with-a-bat, this film has long been considered a prestige gangster classic—but does it still earn its reputation? Gene and Big D break down Ennio Morricone's unforgettable score, De Palma's shameless love of excess, and whether Costner's Eliot Ness is compelling or just aggressively boring. Along the way, they revisit Connery's scene-stealing mentor role, De Niro's cartoonishly menacing Al Capone, and the film's "history-as-vibes" approach to law enforcement. Is The Untouchables a towering crime masterpiece—or just a stylish collection of unforgettable moments stitched together with slow-motion hero worship?

This week, Shat The Movies looks to the stars with Contact, Robert Zemeckis's thoughtful, talky, and occasionally frustrating sci-fi drama about faith, science, and whether humanity is ready for the truth. Based on Carl Sagan's novel and anchored by a career-best performance from Jodie Foster, Contact dares to ask big questions—then spends two and a half hours arguing about who gets to answer them. Gene and Big D debate whether this is smart, adult science fiction or a preachy lecture disguised as a blockbuster. They dig into Matthew McConaughey's spiritual hot takes, the movie's suspicious politics, the weirdly hostile government oversight, and one of the most memorable fake-out climaxes of the '90s. Along the way, they ask the ultimate Shat question: is Contact profound—or just very impressed with itself? Plot Summary A driven scientist discovers an alien signal containing instructions to build a mysterious machine, forcing humanity to confront the conflict between science, faith, politics, and the possibility that we are not alone.
