This week Fatty talks about a new gaming device he has for Sarcastro to try during the annual Guys Weekend trip which leads into a discussion about games they played in the arcades and computers in the 80's and 90's (and for Commando, still plays them today) including a game where you simulate working as a bartender and for Sarcastro and Fatty a text based game where you work the ecomonics of being a drug dealer in a supply and demand simulation. They also reflect on the early days of the consumer internet where they would just create and download sound clips after Fatty discloses he found the catalog from his first Gateway desktop from the late 90's and remember what it was like to use services like Napster or LimeWire to wait hours or days for a four minute song. In Olympics coverage, Commando admits his new obsession with the sport of curling as it's a sport he could play it but he wouldn't understand how the scoring works and the group determines bobsled racing would be their team sport. Fatty suggests that they have their own version of Olympic events at Guys Weekend. After finding that Lady Jarvis was guilty of trying to use expired condiments, Banky poses the question of how long are condiments stored in your refrigerator safe to consume once they pass that printed on date. Commando's poor choice for the week comes down to falling prey to the ads in his social media feeds while doomscrolling which becomes relatable to the rest of the gang. Fatty's poor choices is not letting well-enough alone and always pushing for that one step beyond on a project. Sarcastro sacrifices his recording space to Prince Sarcastro and a friend to play video games. Intro and Outro music written and performed by Andrés Rodríguez (Androzguitar)

This game's pretty sick.If you haven't played it, it's a standard sidescrolling shooter/platformer, but with one catch: no jumping. All your platforming is done with a grappling hook. It's a really ambitious concept with a learning curve to be sure, but for the most part I think it works great. Add in a map to explore, a story (kinda) and hitler's exploding head (seriously), and you have yourself a Commando that's Bionic, my friend.My buddy David Rae makes his return to the show this week and we're finally talking the game he's been holding me to play since RTG started. We're getting into the map, the difficulty, the grappling hook adventures, and yes of course, killing Hitler. All par for the course when it comes to the NES.And before we grapple I deliver another edition of the Infamous Intro!This week someone asks if RTG will ever join the video podcast ranks? What forgotten series needs a revival next? And am I planning to check out the Virtual Boy games on the Switch 2??Plus we play another round of 'Play One, Remake One, Erase One', too!

Degens Andy S and Brandon Bombay decide to let off some steam and talk about a classic that epitomized '80s action, 'Commando.' Bombay starts it off by recalling how his parents introduced him to adult movies when he was 7 years old by renting this banger. Then the boys talk about multiple ludicrous elements of this film that was seemingly only made as a way to showcase Arnold Schwarzenegger's bulging body. Naturally, his John Matrix is matched up against Vernon Wells' chainmail vest-wearing Bennett, who is more obsessed with Arnie than director Mark Lester. The movie is loaded with iconic one-liners, and wildly illogical decision making. After jumping out of a plane, Schwarzenegger teams up with the adorable Rae Dawn Chong, who coincidentally happens to be getting her pilot's license. After taking out about 40 security guards/mall cops, Schwarzenegger flies out to Val Verde to face off against Dan Hedaya — who was inexplicably cast as a Central American dictator — and his army of goons. In order to save his daughter, Matrix must kill every last one of them, and in the most brutal ways possible. Will you have a bad time listening to this gonzo episode? No chance!
While the 1942 Dieppe Raid was a catastrophic failure for the Allies, one unit achieved a flawless tactical victory against the odds. In part one of this special series, Patrick Bishop and Saul David explore the origins of the British Commandos—Winston Churchill's "hunter class" of soldiers. From the brutal training bogs of the Scottish Highlands to the clifftops of Varengeville, we follow No. 4 Commando's mission to silence the Hess Battery. Led by the legendary Lord Lovat, this operation became a masterclass in Special Forces planning, featuring daring cliff climbs, the first US Army Rangers in action, and a bayonet charge that provided the only bright spot in an otherwise disastrous day.

This week the fellas get together to record on Commanod's birthday to talk about mansplaining and shelabortating and how they've done both of those things. Fatty addresses an issue with another patron at the Goodwill store regarding publicly using their mobile phone without bluetooth headphones. In the line of poor choices, Fatty gets dissapointed with the free survival gift that came with his recent holster purchase that claimed to be valued at $50 considering how many add-ons he had to get in order to get the free gift. Sarcastro finds what may be a sacrificial animal while walking on the trails near his home. Commando continues to face issues with his free snow blower that keeps costing him time and money.

Welcome back to Not A Bomb! —the podcast where we resurrect cinema's most infamous box office disasters and ask the burning question: was it really that bad? We're celebrating five years of cinematic redemption.For the month of January, Not A Bomb asks a very important cinematic question: what happens when actors decide that being in front of the camera just isn't enough and take a shot at directing themselves? This week, Brad and Troy dive into the wild, weird world of one of cinema's most unique action heroes — Steven Seagal — and his 1994 directorial debut, On Deadly Ground. What happens when you blend Road House bar‑brawling energy, sprinkle in a little Dances with Wolves spiritualism, and top it off with the explosive absurdity of Commando? You get Seagal as a Native American eco‑warrior battling a cartoonishly evil oil company that's tearing up the Alaskan wilderness.And if that's not enough, Michael Caine shows up with the greasiest hair of his career, there's a bar scene that might belong in the Action Movie Hall of Fame, and Seagal delivers environmental monologues with the confidence that only Steven Seagal can deliver. Is it poorly written? Without question. Is Seagal a terrible director? Oh, absolutely. But does that stop On Deadly Ground from being a fascinating, ridiculous, and thoroughly entertaining action‑adventure? Not a chance.Strap in — this one's a blizzard of bad decisions, big explosions, and pure '90s action madness.On Deadly Ground is directed by Steven Seagal and stars Steven Seagal, Michael Cine, Joan, John C. McGinley, R. Lee Ermey, Shari Shattuck, Billy Bob Thornton, Richard Hamilton, Sven-Ole Thorsen, and Mike Starr.Want to help support the show?

Aaron Frescas & Chris Chapman (See You at the Poddy, Richter Podcast) are back in the studio for another hysterical chat: We discuss Arnie movies that we consider criminally underated but how many of them will we all agree upon?

And which ones are easily solid double features with the likes of COMMANDO, THE RUNNING MAN, PREDATOR & even TRUE LIES? OPENING QUOTE FROM: The 6th Day (2000)

Londinium Winter 92AD. Reflecting on military history, the speakers contrast the strategic genius of Hannibal and the eccentric audacity of WWII commando Lord Lovat with the current state of American forces. Germanicus asserts that the "marauder" spirit of figures like Andrew Jackson or the Normans has vanished from the U.S. military, which he describes as a "submissive subculture" focused on maintaining privilege rather than victory. He concludes that the American system is too ossified for reform, arguing that the nation is in a period of rupture that requires a "new empire" to survive.1910 CARTHAGE THEATER EXCAVATED

In the premiere of a new series from Battleground, Patrick Bishop and Saul David dive into the high-stakes world of Special Forces to explore why these small bands of elite warriors have captured the global imagination. From the SAS and Delta Force to Sayeret Matkal, the duo strips away the Hollywood veneer to define the "SF type," debating whether it is superior fitness, a specific mental edge, or a carefully cultivated mystique that sets these operators apart. They also examine the massive literary obsession with units like the SAS, questioning what our fascination with "supermen" reveals about our own society. We also look forward in our episode to what is coming up in this new series including: Operation Cauldron, the legendary 1942 assault by No. 4 Commando, the Iranian Embassy siege, the failure of Operation Eagle Claw and the precision of the raid on Osama bin Laden.

John Matrix (Arnold Schwarzenegger) is a sweet, ex-military man trying to live his retired life with his daughter, Jenny (Alyssa Milano). When he's not logging or walking around with logs, he's eating ice cream and feeding wild deer. Now, Arius (Dan Hedaya) and his number one thug, Bennett (Vernon Wells), pull John back into the game by kidnapping Jenny. John is all Command-NO about it! He somehow teams up with Cindy (Rae Dawn Chong) to fly planes and get things done. Is Cindy the new mom? RTS checks out some brochures to Val Verde. Between the warlords, plotting and potential alien monsters, this place has something for everyone. La-Mar tells a bunch of people they'll die last. He lied about it. They're taken out rather quickly. Collin starts wearing his own chainmail vest. The trend has started to take off. Brent makes his Rabbit Troop Sucks debut by jumping out of a plane and leaving bodies along the way. Also, he's going full commando! ‘Tis the season!
How many times have YOU recommended a movie to a friend or colleague and got a response the next day to the tune of "what the hell did you tell me to watch?! Why do you like this?!" There's nothing like showing a film you like that has a poor critical reputation, to your brother who has never seen it and hoping for the best. Did he like it? Yih, nah, you'll have to listen to find out. This week we tackled Arnie's End of Days, which plays sort of like Commando meets Rosemary's Baby, with a regularly randy Satan (surprising that when he pees later in the movie, he doesn't have to arch his back in a triangular shape...) a constantly screaming Robin Tunney who puts the "shut up dammit" in Damsel in Distress, Kevin Pollack with a character name out of a 70's cop show and Hector Salamanca in a wheelchair sans the bell. And, of course, Arnie making a smoothie out of old pizza from the floor. He didn't even wash it first. Animal. It's all here and more! What are you waiting for? Listen!

This week Commando, Sarcastro and Banky join up to talk about buying silver, going to local races back in the day, drive-in theaters and the potential revival of a staple 24 hour diner from their youth and drone warfare. Intro and Outro music written and performed by Andrés Rodríguez (Androzguitar)

Send us a textFrom the age of 12, Scott Ryder knew he wanted to join the army. After serving as a paratrooper and in East Timor with 3 RAR, he wanted more. He trained all summer and took the gruelling selection course for the commandos, earning the prized green beret on his second attempt.Ryder shares battlefield stories from his tours to Afghanistan, where his regiment saw some of the heaviest fighting Australian forces have experienced since the Vietnam War. After being seriously injured in a shocking Black Hawk helicopter crash in Kandahar, he was the only survivor to return to active service.You can learn more about Scott's service in his book Forged in Fire, available here: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Forged-Fire-Australian-commandos-frontline-ebook/dp/B0CYZNJRDBScott is on instagram: @scott_ryder_zero79If you are interested in being a guest on the podcast, please contact us at info@veteranstateofmind.com , or drop us a DM on instagram @veteranstateofmindSupport the show
In this powerful episode, former Royal Marine and Special Boat Service operator James Hill takes us deep inside the world of the UK's most elite military unit. From a tough childhood and finding purpose in the Marines, to surviving brutal commando training, multiple Afghanistan tours, piracy missions at sea, and the gruelling Special Forces selection process, James reveals the reality behind the uniform. He opens up about firefights, IED blasts, live combat, the mental toll of constant danger, and the moment he was shot five times during a daring operation. James also shares rare insight into SBS culture, selection, evasion training, and what civilians never truly understand about the people who protect the country in complete silence. This is a raw, honest and emotional conversation about courage, brotherhood, trauma, sacrifice and the price paid by the few who stand between danger and the rest of us.
Hosts Dominic Lawton & Ken B Wild are tooling up, donning their speedos and killing everything in sight in honour of this week's film! It's the 1985, Arnold Schwarzenegger classic - COMMANDO! The guys answer the tough questions, such as are action films selling the lie to young children that war is fun? What the hell is Vernon Wells wearing? And just what is actually in that sandwich? Meanwhile, Dom tells us the reason a co-worker couldn't wear jeans, whilst Ken tells us why a co-worker had to stop practising martial arts!

This week on Pop Culture Pastor, Dave, Cody, and Jackson jump straight into the chaos as they tackle a brand-new ListBusters challenge — this time taking aim at JoBlo.com's list of the 25 Greatest Action Movies of All Time, curated by writer Chris Bumbray.What starts as a simple countdown quickly unravels into total cinematic anarchy: nuked classics, rogue recasts, strategic sabotage, and one very passionate defense of Commando that nobody saw coming.By the end, the list looks… different. Very different. Like “you won't believe what ends up at #1" different.Along the way, the guys also break down the bizarre and delightful news of Pope Leo's big Hollywood meet-up at the Vatican, talk through the pontiff's four favorite films, and wonder what guilty-pleasure movies the Pope didn't admit to.It's unhinged, hilarious, surprisingly thoughtful, and absolutely peak ListBusters chaos.Action movies will never be the same.
Paul Thomas Anderson's One Battle After Another has been the talk of the town since its wide release last month—from critics to filmmakers to audiences, the reception has been nothing short of euphoric. Loosely inspired by Thomas Pynchon's novel Vineland, the film opens in an unspecified present, detailing the activities of a militant group led by a Black revolutionary (played by Teyana Taylor). Years after her disappearance, her partner (Leonardo DiCaprio) and their daughter (newcomer Chase Infiniti) are hunted down by an old enemy, Sean Penn's Colonel Steven J. Lockjaw. The chase takes them across California, with an assortment of other characters becoming embroiled along the way. The movie is an unabashedly fun, feel-good action flick—one that also calls back to films as disparate as The Searchers, Commando, and Running on Empty. But is it among the greatest of the decade, as some have claimed? Film Comment Editors Clinton Krute and Devika Girish invited critics and programmers Miriam Bale and Adam Piron on the Podcast to discuss the film's successes and failures, how it fits into PTA's larger body of work, and its engagement with American history and the present. If there's one thing the four agreed on, it's that One Battle After Another is indeed a “very rich text.”
Captain Commando commands its way to TADPOG shores, courtesy of Ian’s suggestion. Commando wasn’t working out too well so we pivoted to another thematic SNES game this week. Judging by the baby in the mech suit, you can imagine what we collectively thought about this game. BUT first, Tyler has gifts from his recent business … Continue reading → The post Ep. 839 – Captain Commando (SNES) appeared first on TADPOG: Tyler and Dave Play Old Games.
