Send us a textRISKYSometimes you gotta say, “What the Fuck” to research, make your move. This week Season 14's penultimate 1x1 is co-host Ryan's pick: RISKY BUSINESS (1983). His reason: TGTPTU normally pairs filmographies of a single director or actor, and the writer-director on this film was so triggered by the experience of having his written, shot, and edited original ending replaced in the final cut that he never directed another film again… or at least not until his second film in 1990 (WTF, Ryan?). This film that would go on to become part of 1980s iconography by first-time director Paul Brickman, who had previously written the Michael Pressman-directed The Bad News Bears in Breaking Training (1977) and the Jonathan Demme-directed Handle with Care (1977) and would later be one of three credited writers on Clint Eastwood's True Crime (alternately known as Speed Zoo) (1999), Risky Business as dark teen comedy and potential Reagon-era satire stars a number of early roles by actors who'd become comedy stars of the 1980s, including as the protagonist Joel's fellow yuppie North Shore friends and entrepreneuring high school seniors in their first film appearances Curtis Armstrong (also known as Booger in the 1980s) and Bronson Pinchot (aka Balki in the 80s). It costars Rebecca De Mornay (later in the 90s known for her roles as a terrible nanny and as Milady de Winter) as the business-savvy prostitute, and has an early movie appearance by Joey Pants (known in the late-90s for taking the blue pill, Ralphie Cifaretto in the 00s, and a Bad Boy 4 life) as Guido the pimp. Oh, and it's also the first time that actor born Thomas Mapother IV, better known later in life by his stage name Tom Cruise, stars in the leading role in a film (but not the first time he danced in his underwear or kissed a female person, if DVD commentary tracks are to be believed). Behind the camera, you have two cinematographers: Eastwood's 70s and early-80s collaborator Bruce Surtees as well as regular Hollywood comedy lenser Reynaldo Villalobos. Pod-favorite Tangerine Dream scores. And the film scores big with first watches by host Tom and guest host Jack and with the Gen X'ers Ken and Ryan. It's a wild ride, so mind your parking brake. In this episode Ryan explains the economic milieu behind the 80's yuppie culture to the two young hosts while drawing comparisons to American Psycho (2000); the two Zoomers discover how to shorten future episodes; and Broom Hilda's creator, whose life strangely overlaps with Ken's past and present, drops by studio.

Fresh off a national record and his electrifying 800m performance at the Millrose Games, Cooper Lutkenhaus returns to the podcast today. Cooper, a Texas native and only 16 years old, is already being lauded for his ferocious and insanely strong kick during racing. Recently, he set a new indoor high school national record in the 800m, flying to a 1:46.86. Prior to showing up to the Millrose Games, Cooper ran against collegiate runners at the Texas Tech Invite, where he set a high school U.S. sophomore record with a time of 1:50.15. During his breakout freshman year, Cooper won three national meets and a Texas Class 5A state title in the 800m, while also finishing 47th in the Class 5A cross country state meet with a time of 16:23.4 in the 5k. Cooper comes from a family of supremely-talented athletes: his father George was a state runner-up in the 1600m in 1995; and his brother Andrew ran a 1:50.04 in the 800m in high school. Cooper has shown impressive range as an athlete as far back as middle school, competing in football, wrestling, and basketball–in addition to track and XC. Cooper's personal bests in his short career so far include outdoor times of 22.12 in the 200m; 47.33 in the 400m; 4:14.17 in the 1600m; and the aforementioned 800m indoor record of 1:46.86.In today's conversation, Cooper takes me through his record-breaking Millrose 800m, what led into this race, his ambitions for the rest of the season, his thoughts on when he'll go Pro, what athletes he looks up to, in-depth insights on his training, and so much more.

I love William Devane. I was first introduced to him as Kelly Leak's dad in The Bad News Bears in Breaking Training. I enjoy him at least once a year when I re-watch Rolling Thunder. He's done tons of Film & Television and I'll explore most of it. I will also inundate you with useless shit like Christopher Motisanti's knowledge of the Cuban Missile Crisis, Donna Mills being "buoyant", Hitchcock and Al Packinow, and the various revenue bonds issued to build the Astrodome. This is my Christmas gift to the world.
What's wrong with Larry Abbot? The radio star is having bouts of fear, perhaps a remnant of childhood trauma. Otherwise, everything seems to be swell: he's engaged to be married to his scene partner, the delightful Vickie Pearle. But the radio show, hosted by the Manhattan Mystery Theater and lead sponsor Ralston-Purina are concerned about Larry's mental health, so they've hired Larry's Uncle Paul, a psychiatrist. to employ a radical cure that will rid Larry of his fears in no more than 36 hours. And off go Larry and Vickie to Larry's ancestral stomping grounds, a palatial estate that bears a striking resemblance to, well, let's just say we've seen it before. Just like the Abbot family butler, Pfister, and the maid, the diminutive Rachel – there's something familiar about them as well. What's new are the cast of characters that assemble at the estate for Larry and Vickie's wedding – Larry's cousins Charles, Nora, Susan, and Francis Jr., all of whom seem to have ulterior motives of one kind of another, some of which may include death or inheriting the fortune of the family matriarch, Aunt Kate. Will Larry and Vickie make it through the next couple days intact? Will we, the audience, figure out what's really going on? Maybe so, but we'll have to sit through all 82 minutes of this film to find out.

A short but memorable scene makes this blast-from-the-past starquilt movie a fan favorite. Tune in as we remember the Bad News Bears.
Listen as Mike and Tom discuss the 1977 sequel The Bad News Bears in Breaking Training. You'll hear the highs and lows of watching a late 70's movie that will include great father and son scenes but a lot of racism, talk about how much baseball is in this movie and the wisdom in not introducing your main character until more than half way through the movie.
Carlo and Dan are back with more of the Crud they've been watching and so much more.First, they discuss the Crud Buddies discord and the Crud Challenge, which dovetails nicely into a chat about ZËIЯAM (1991) and the work of Keita Amemiya. Then there's talk about newly announced BluRay titles, questions from the audience about sequels and the “Jor-El” character, plus movies like The Kid Brother (1987). And of course, no episode would be complete without some tokusatsu chat.And don't forget to:Follow Dan on Twitter and Letterboxd (@yckmd_)Follow Carlo on Twitter (@carlogocarlo) and Letterboxd (@psychopike)A new episode of Notes From the Back Row will be released every other week.

In Episode 160, Devin, Greggo, Mean Marc (eventually TK) recap the summer preseason tours for some of our favorite Euro clubs, including those we have been fortunate to check out in person on the FTC Summer Tour. We discuss Arsenal's solid campaign in the US and if the big moves has the Gunners aiming high when the season starts, Chelsea's shaky turn, and why Barcelona seems to have a lock on the transfer market despite having very shaky finances. And as the top Euro clubs tour the US, we discuss why fans seem to turn out for the big name clubs but not for teams based here in the US. In the second half we go into the Women's Euros and England's breakthrough to the Finals and if they can win it all or if France or Germany can beat the Home Nation (pre-recorded before that semi), acknowledge South Africa's first Women's Afcon championship, and in 2UP/2Down we go into new jobs, Soccer in the Streets, Vince McMahon retiring from WWE, and MORE!!

“Concentrate on the moment, feel don't think... May the force be with you.” - Yoda Somehow the family convinced me that it would be a good idea to watch the entire Star Wars collection… I hardly ever watch movies unless they are educational documentaries or gems from my childhood like ET or The Bad News Bears in Breaking Training... The thought and idea of sitting down to watch 11 different Star Wars movies were actually so comical I said “sure” just for the humorous sake of it. I did figure at the very least I could get some quiet time in the dark and bang out a few Daily Hustles during the 2 hour nightly pow wow cinema sessions... Tarah, knowing how difficult it would be for me to sit through even one movie (in an attempt to get me to pay attention), suggested I would be able to conjure multiple Daily Hustles ideas out of the legendary compilation... Enough said, she had me at Daily Hustle. So, I gave it a shot and intently sat through the first Star Wars ever made, “A New Hope,” which is actually number 4 in the series... I had seen it when I was a kid and kinda like ET, it invoked a lot of the feelings I had when I saw it for the first time when I was 5. This time though, it also captivated me in an entirely new way... I became consumed with the mysterious and all powerful “FORCE.” It was difficult to really comprehend as a child but as a wisdom seeking Daily Hustling writer, I now have a few questions to dive into... Let's explore
The Bad News Bears is a 1976 American sports comedy film directed by Michael Ritchie and written by Bill Lancaster. It stars Walter Matthau and Tatum O'Neal. The film was followed by two sequels, The Bad News Bears in Breaking Training in 1977 and The Bad News Bears Go to Japan in 1978, a short-lived 1979–80 CBS television series, and a 2005 remake. Notable was the score by Jerry Fielding, which is an adaptation of the principal themes of Bizet's opera Carmen.

Levi Stahl is known primarily as a book person, through his prominent position at University of Chicago Press, his blog I’ve Been Reading Lately, but also for his Twitter feed (@levistal), where he primarily excerpts and comments on all things literary. As a special guest of YWIW, Levi explains to Wade and Siggy why “The secret theme of every ‘70s movie is the material shittiness of the ‘70s”, the concept is exemplified by 1976’s The Bad News Bears and 1978’s remake of Invasion Of The Body Snatchers, with a long digression into 1977's Smokey and The Bandit.

I like to think of horse training as a two way communication between horse and human, not just the human telling the horse what to do. When you listen to your horse, he can tell you if he is ready for a particular task. He will tell you he is not by struggling with it.

The Bad News Bears is considered a classic baseball movie. Its 1977 sequel is not. But author Josh Wilker thinks the mostly forgotten tale of Kelly Leak, the Astrodome and a van full of misfits is a quintessential American movie of the 1970s.
An episode that began as an aside to the Rocky episodes grew into a lengthy conversation about how The Bad News Bears demands relevancy in 2018, which grew into an even longer conversation about the Bad News Bears sequels, pre-ordained judgment of said sequels, and the mistreatment of classic cinema in a modern era that prefers to scrub clean the unfortunate realities of prior generations.

This week, we’re sharing a highly subjective journey through one narrow, eccentric, corridor of radio advertising, as heard through the ears of one man. His name is Clive Desmond. Clive is a radio advertising producer, writer, and composer. He’s been doing it for more than thirty years, and he’s won some of the industry’s top awards. Through those years he’s been sort of a zelig figure: you can find his face somewhere in the margins of every one of the medium’s key aesthetic revolutions. He’s rescued beautiful forgotten nuggets of radio history, and he’s delicately arranged them into a glittering associative chain—a constellation of jingles and spots that somehow all add up, to a life: The life of Clive Desmond as heard through the radio. Listen below to a special bonus playlist of some of the finest radio-advertising nuggets Clive assembled: In this episode, you’ll also hear Josh Wilker read his review of our program. “A man claiming to be from The Organist came to the parking lot gate out back. He said he needed access to the building’s electricity meter. We looked at one another through the bars.†Josh Wilker is the author of the pop-culture memoirs Cardboard Gods, Benchwarmer, and The Bad News Bears in Breaking Training. He lives in Chicago. You can also check out our episode on Mal Sharpe, a man who was among the first wave of fake newsmen, paving the way from everyone from Borat to Colbert. In this week’s episode, Clive Desmond cites Mal as one of the originators of the “man on the street†radio commercial. Special thanks to Doug Thompson, Dan Aron, Nick Ream and Jennifer Sharper.
