Podcasts about Brat Pack

"It ain't easy having pals." We watched Young Guns (1988) with our good friend Millie De Chirico from the podcast "Dear Movies, I Love You", and we can give you six reasons why the West was so wild in the 1980s: it's our boys Emilio, Kiefer, Lou, Dermot, Casey, and Charlie. In a time where Western movies were in a dry patch, these young men helped breathe life into a dying genre. Photographed like a hair band music video, we're thankful there were power outlets in the Old West to plug in the hairdryers needed to blow out and feather these manes of 80s hair. We discuss our relationships with the six Brat Pack (and Brat Pack adjacent) cast; if any of us have actually seen the original "Young Guns" or just confuse it with "Young Guns 2"; and speculate what new young cast could possibly work in a Young Guns 3.  Thank you for listening, and don't forget to subscribe, rate, and review us on Apple Podcasts! www.patreon.com/moviesthatmadeusgay Facebook/Instagram: @moviesthatmadeusgay Bluesky: @MTMUGPod.bsky.social Scott Youngbauer: Twitter @oscarscott / Instagram @scottyoungballer Peter Lozano: Twitter/Instagram @peterlasagna Cover Art by Shaun Piela

Imagine a dystopian America where authority is malignant, the profit motive rules all, everyone is on the grift, all goods and services have been devalued to the least of their utility and value, and the infrastructure has crumbled into a depressing echo of its former self… this morning's New York Times? No! It's Alex Cox's punk rock masterpiece Repo Man! Made in that special time before John Hughes and the Brat Pack got their hooks in him, Emilio Estevez embodies youth in revolt as he teams up with Harry Dean Stanton at his scuzziest, most viciously nicotine-stained best to get into some tense situations. Step into the 1980s Ronnie Reagan did NOT want you to know about: where aliens are real, televangelists occasionally moonlight as government agents, television holds a hypnotic sway over your parents, and, most importantly, the threat of the Rodriguez Brothers looms around every corner! Politically biting, socially trenchant, and as fucking hilarious as a can of generic beer and poke to the eye with a lit cigarette, Repo Man may just be the angriest and most prophetic mainstream film of its time - and even more surprisingly, it's one of Paul's formative favorites! So join Javi and the ever-so-rebellious Producer Brad as they wonder just what Paul's youth was reallyShow Notes:Theatrical Release Date: March 2, 1984Weekend Box Office for March 2-4, 1984AFI Catalog EntryRoger Ebert's ReviewNYT ReviewTheme music by Mike McGuillAdditional voicework by Russell BentleyFollow us!InstagramBlueskyemail: Multiplexoverthruster@gmail.com Hosted on Acast.

Brat Pack luminary Molly Ringwald made a string of thrillers in the mid to late 90's, playing the villain, the victim, and some lady who works in an office. Was she able to replicate her teen idol success of the 80's? The answer may or may not surprise you!

This week, Andy, Ash, and Ed kick off the pod with the final part of our Pack Chat, with our deep‑dive into the 2020s Brat Pack: where the originals are now, how YA cinema has mutated into therapy‑speak and TikTok maximalism, and whether the next generation of stars are even Actors at this point, or just Brands for Fame.Then it's time for the Short Short Film Film Review, where we tackle Crash Site (2025). Steven Yeun, Sam Richardson, aliens, base‑3 language, Men in Black — and somehow still no actual story. We break down why this glossy little short feels more like a pitch deck than a film.Finally, we saddle up as our Cruise Rewatch hits Young Guns territory. Cruise appears for roughly the length of a sneeze, but that won't stop us from over‑analysing it like it's a lost Kubrick cameo.Three segments, three wildly different vibes, one very confused podcast. Enjoy.

This week we're time‑travelling again - but not to the 80s just yet.In Part One of our Brat Pack deep‑dive, we jump a generation ahead to see what the iconic crew got up to in the 2000s and 2010s. Who thrived? Who surprised us? And who, in the 21st century, would actually count as a Brat Pack successor?Our Short Short Film Film Review goes international with the Dutch, Oscar‑winning oddity I'm Not A Robot - a tiny, tender, tech‑meltdown masterpiece about proving your humanity to systems that don't believe you exist.Then the Cruise Cruise docks in 1988 for Cocktail, where Tom Cruise juggles ambition, romance, flair bartending, and more neon than the human eye was designed to process.It's nostalgia, nonsense, and a whole lot of movie love.

The reluctant heartthrob from John Hughes' 1986 teen classic revisits Brat Pack mania and the last-minute ending that changed everything. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

In this week's episode, we look back over the cinematic chaos of March... the highs, the lows, and the “why did we watch that?” moments. We dive into the legacy of the Brat Pack and how their fame shaped (and sometimes warped) the teen‑movie landscape of the 80s and 90s.Then in the Short Short Film Film Review, things take a sharp left turn as we confront The Strange Thing About the Johnsons, a film that leaves us questioning our life choices. Finally, the Cruise Cruise rolls on as we revisit The Color of Money, exploring Paul Newman's swagger, Tom Cruise's hair, and Scorsese's neon‑soaked pool‑hall energy.

What happens when a Hollywood icon hits the road to rediscover the lost art of male friendship? Brat Pack star turned author Andrew McCarthy joins host Donny Deutsch for a candid, eye-opening conversation about his new book, "Who Needs Friends? An Unscientific Examination of Male Friendship Across America." Andrew's cross-country journey to reconnect with old friends revealed a surprising truth: men are facing a loneliness epidemic — and most don't even know it. From the myths of toxic masculinity to the power of vulnerability, and the role technology plays in eroding real human connection, this conversation unpacks why so many men struggle to form and keep meaningful friendships. Packed with personal stories and a powerful call to embrace vulnerability, this episode is essential listening for any man who wants deeper, more authentic connections in his life. Be sure to check out the ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠On Brand with Donny Deutsch YouTube page⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠. Takeaways: Andrew's journey to reconnect with friends was sparked by a conversation with his son. Many men feel isolated and rely on their wives to manage social lives. Vulnerability is often seen as a weakness in men, hindering friendships. Friendships require active effort and vulnerability to flourish. Loneliness among men is a significant issue, often exacerbated by technology. Older men are less likely to admit feelings of loneliness compared to younger men. Social interaction is crucial for mental and physical health. Friendship can be a source of safety and emotional support. Men often struggle with maintaining female friendships due to societal norms. Rekindling friendships can lead to deeper appreciation and connection. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Send me a text! I'd LOVE to hear your feedback on this episode!Why were we less afraid in the 80s, even though life was objectively more dangerous? In this episode of Sandy K Nutrition Health & Lifestyle Queen Podcast, I explore the dramatic shift from the unfiltered, unsupervised, analog childhoods of the 80s to today's hyper‑connected, hyper‑observed digital world. I unpack how a generation raised on hallway politics, real‑world problem‑solving, and genuine anonymity developed naturally resilient nervous systems, while modern life is pushing us toward chronic fear, overstimulation, and emotional fragility.This episode blends nostalgia with grounded science to explain why so many people feel anxious, overwhelmed, and constantly “on alert.” I break down the psychological and biological forces shaping today's fear culture, including Mean World Syndrome, the Panopticon Effect, and the rise of safetyism. I also share a powerful moment about my almost-89‑year‑old father's wisdom, whose old‑school words reveal a truth our nervous systems desperately need: strategic information boundaries are not avoidance - they are biological protection.What makes this episode different is my scientifically and logically rooted solutions - practical, accessible, and grounded in nervous‑system physiology, metabolic stability, and behavioral psychology. These are not hacks or trends. They are evidence‑informed protocols anyone can follow to reduce digital overwhelm, rebuild competence, restore metabolic steadiness, and reconnect with the uncurated version of yourself that existed before life became a 24/7 performance.If you're tired of feeling overstimulated, anxious, or disconnected from your own strength, this episode offers a nostalgic and deeply practical roadmap back to resilience. It's a call to step out of performance mode, reclaim your internal locus of control, and rebuild the grounded, capable, unfiltered human you were always meant to be.If this resonated, tap follow, share it with a friend who needs a reset, and leave a quick review so more people can find the show.

We've been busy preparing a slate of episodes to pay tribute to some of the giants of New Hollywood who have recently left us. First on the “in memoriam” docket is no less than Robert Redford. Arguably the first true multi-hyphenate, with his directorial debut Ordinary People, Redford established an impressively new take on the “issues film”. Elena and Sam enjoy digging in and trying to untangle its thorny reputation as an Oscar spoiler for Raging Bull and Martin Scorsese. Topics include: the 92nd st Y, the origins of the Brat Pack, and what Mary Tyler Moore is really like.

Star of 'Weekend at Bernie's' and 'Pretty in Pink', Andrew McCarthy talks to Brendan about his career as a Brat Pack star, and TV director. He also discusses the death of his parents, meeting his Irish wife, his long relationship with Ireland, and his first theatre role in 20 years, in Arthur Miller's 'The Crucible' at The Gaiety.

The Breakfast Club (1985) was chosen by Patreon supporter Lucky LouLou Green, and it stands as one of the defining films of 1980s American cinema. Written, produced, and directed by John Hughes, the movie was made during an incredibly prolific period for the filmmaker, as he reshaped teen movies with a more honest, character-driven approach. Shot on a modest budget of around $1 million, the film was produced quickly, with Hughes deliberately stripping away flashy set pieces to focus on dialogue, performance, and atmosphere. Principal photography took place at Maine North High School in Des Plaines, Illinois — a real, unused school that Hughes would return to multiple times throughout his career.The production schedule was famously short — just 28 days — and Hughes encouraged collaboration, allowing the young cast to contribute ideas and personal experiences to their roles. Several moments of dialogue were improvised or rewritten on set, helping give the film its natural, conversational feel that set it apart from other teen movies of the era. Composer Keith Forsey provided the now-iconic soundtrack, perfectly capturing the mood of mid-80s youth culture. Upon release, The Breakfast Club became both a commercial and cultural success, cementing Hughes' reputation and turning its cast into defining faces of a generation. Today, the film is widely regarded as a landmark of 1980s filmmaking — proof that a small budget, a single location, and strong creative confidence can produce something timeless.

In today's exclusive interview, we sit down with legendary creator Rick Veitch to discuss the groundbreaking NYCC 2025 announcement that has Swamp Thing fans celebrating after more than three decades! Rick shares how it came to be that DC will finally publish Swamp Thing #88 as part of a Swamp Thing 1989 miniseries, completing his epic run that was abruptly halted when DC refused to publish a story featuring Jesus Christ. We explore the history of the controversy, how this deal came together after 36+ years, and the emotional experience of finally getting closure on this unfinished chapter. We also delve into some of his other titles, including his early work on Sgt. Rock, The One miniseries, and self-published stories like Brat Pack, The Maximortal, and Rare Bit Fiends.You can follow Rick and purchase his latest stuff on rickveitch.com, and you can look for the man himself on Facebook. Support the show___________________Check out video versions of this and other episodes on YouTube: youtube.com/dollarbinbandits!If you like this podcast, please rate, review, and subscribe on Apple Podcasts or wherever you found this episode.

It's rare to have two 80s movies back to back that encapsulate the entirety of the 80s, but boy does this get there. Take the best of the Brat Pack, throw them in a shockingly historically accurate western, sprinkle with some truly wild accents, and you get a rootin' tootin' good time. They're not good movies, but they are enjoyable to watch. Round up, Regulators, as we watch Young Guns and Young Guns II on Have a Good Movie!

The year was 1986, and the Brat Pack—a group of hot young actors that folks associated with each other—was on top of the world. Then these three movies were released, and that was basically the the end of that. BLUE CITY (1986, Michelle Manning) OUT OF BOUNDS (1986, Dick Tuggle) WISDOM (1986, Emilio Estevez)

Dear Mr. Vernon, we accept the fact that we had to spend a Saturday in detention watching John Hughes's 1985 classic, The Breakfast Club. But we think you're crazy to make us write an essay telling you who we think we are. You see us as you want to see us: a brain, an athlete, a basket case, a princess, and a criminal. Right? This week, Josh, Garrett, and David revisit Shermer High School to see if this quintessential Brat Pack film still connects in 2025. We break down the iconic character archetypes we related to then and now, the surprisingly well-written scenes that pack an emotional punch , and the parts that are... well, more problematic than we remembered. From Bender's aggressive "flirting" to the vice principal's shocking $31,000 salary, we explore what has and hasn't aged well.Does this coming-of-age touchstone still earn its classic status, or have we grown up and apart from it? Let us know your take, and don't forget to subscribe and leave us a five-star review (or four, so we have something to work toward! ).

At the age of 62, Demi Moore is now officially Hollywood's comeback kid. She bursts onto the scene in 80s classics like “St. Elmo's Fire” and “About Last Night,” and establishes herself as one of Tinseltown's hottest young stars and as a bonafide member of the “Brat Pack.” But despite being one of Hollywood's heavy hitters, the “Ghost” star just can't outrun her traumatic childhood. And after some high-profile box office bombs in the 90s, Demi spends the next 30 years rebuilding both her personal life and career. But now, with her Oscar-nominated turn in 2024's “The Substance,” Demi's proving that not only is her career back on track, she's finally at peace with herself for the first time in her life.You can follow Brooke and Aricia on socials at @brookesiffrinn and @ariciaskidmorewilliamss.

Now, for those of you who don't know, I'm an 80s kid. By that, I mean I turned 16 at the end of that decade. I grew up with posters of Ralph Macchio and Michael J Fox on my wall, I went to see New Kids on the Block in concert, and when I read about The Brat Pack in newspapers and magazines (social media was not a thing), I wanted to be a member of that group. From media released long after that time, it appears that while fans wanted to be part of the gang, the gang itself was not overly happy with the label they were given by David Blum in his 1985 New Yorker article. In 2021, Andrew McCarthy released his autobiography, which talked a little about his experiences as an '80s heartthrob, and in 2024, he produced a documentary exploring the impact this label had on him and his fellow Brat Packers! This week, I met up with my friend Lorraine, and as we're both very proud '80s kids, we talked about the autobiography, the documentary and our perceptions of what it meant to us. Yep, this week is different. Welcome again to Lorraine, and join us both on a trip back in time, when things were easier, when the Goonies were doing the truffle shuffle, Jake Ryan was waiting outside our house, standing in front of a Porsche and wearing a gross pink satin prom dress got you the boy of your dreams!

**TW Stalking & Brief mention of SA**This week our duo is joined by Scott's father Hal Eisenberg to cover one of his favorite 80s movies St.Elmo's Fire!!! What will we think of this Brat Pack classic movie? Will it be on par with movies like Breakfast Club? Or should it be a movie best left in the past? Tune in as we SHOOT THE FLICK!!!!

It's just Kevin and Lauren this week... until it isn't... and then it is again. There's a lot to talk about, with The Outsiders the Musical, The Last of Us Season 2 Finale, Bad Shabbos, The Fountain of Youth, and The Last Showgirl. Lauren kicks off the show by talk about The Outsiders, last years Tony Award winner for best musical. If you recognize the name, it is in fact the same as the '80s Brat Pack film. While that might sounds like it shouldn't work, it absolutely does. With a great set design and score, the show really is spectacular. As Lauren was discussing that show, Andrew (who had already told everyone he had better things to do than waste his evening with them, mind you) popped in. This gave him and Kevin the chance to talk about the last 2 episodes of The Last of Us Season 2. The agreement is that episode 6 was spectacular and the finale was solid and Andrew, with a little time to ruminate, has found himself understanding Abby's story and Ellie's shortcomings a little more than before. All in all it's a great finish and cliffhanger for a solid season. After Andrew exits only slightly less unceremoniously than he arrived, Lauren talks about the indy film, Bad Shobbos. It's a low budget comedy with a cast of actors you'd recognize but most likely can't name beyond Kira Sedgwick, but it's wonderfully done and a great time. It's a movie that reminds us to look beyond the name on the poster and see what's really being put on the screen and most definitely worth a watch. Next up, Kevin talks about The Fountain of Youth, which is almost the exact opposite situation as Bad Shobbos. Here you have a stellar cast with John Krazinzky, Ntalie Portman, Stanley Tucci, Eiza Gonzalez, and more. Not only that, it's a big budget adventure film. But with all of that, it lacks the heart that  something small and special like Bad Shobbos has, proving the point again, it's not the names on the poster, but what's been put to film. Lauren closes the show with The Last Showgirl. This one stirred up a lot of Award Season buzz last year with the resurgence of Pamela Anderson. It gets Kevin and Lauren talking about aging and beauty standards in Hollywood and how they are so often hypocritical. All that aside, it's a great movie and it has a quick runtime, so if you see it streaming, definitely give it a go! As always, thank you for watching.
