Podcasts about Die hard

On this Christmas Eve many families gather around to watch their favorite holiday movies, but in Amy and T.J. home, it’s a dilemma. And up until now, neither one had actually sat down and watched the other’s favorite movie. This week, they took the time to watch both films together, and have a spirited debate about whether either or both should remain a holiday classic for the Christmases to come.

Summer Brooks & Ethan Weeks joke with the podcast crew for this minisode about Action-Mystery films by Bruce Willis/Shane Black/Joel Silver that could've easily been a DIE HARD sequel.   Why is THE LAST BOY SCOUT mainly a LETHAL WEAPON movie co-starring John McClane?   Why is THE COLOR OF NIGHT a Giallo Erotic Thriller Mystery with a brief McClane car chase?   Plus, we also get to joke about other roles he did that are mainly Willis still in MOONLIGHTING mode!     FILMS DISCUSSED: The Last Boy Scout, The Player (especially that end movie parody sequence!), Striking Distance, Color of Night, Mercury Rising, Hostage (2005) & 16 Blocks

Brace yourself for a holly-jolly hostage situation! This special Christmas bonus re-release of Reading Between the Reels is decking the halls… and the villains. From John McClane's barefoot antics to explosive corporate holiday parties, we reveal why Die Hard is the ultimate Christmas movie you secretly love (or pretend to hate).   Originally released in 1988, Die Hard defied low expectations to become a critical and financial hit, introduced Alan Rickman to the world, solidified Bruce Willis as a movie star, and inspired an entire sub-genre of action films. On this episode, guest co-host Jeff McGee returns to help deconstruct the film, share his insights, and explain why Santa might be coming to town… but he's definitely taking notes from Hans Gruber. ----more---- Thank you so much for listening!

Christian scholar Dr. Tim Larsen joins the show to explain the real origins of the Christmas traditions we hold dear today—from Santa Claus and reindeer to ornaments and the December 25th date itself. He debunks the persistent myth that Christmas is a pagan holiday, explores how centuries of tradition shaped modern celebrations, and helps separate historical fact from popular fiction. And yes—we settle the age-old question: Is Die Hard a Christmas movie?   Dr. Timothy Larsen is a Professor of History at Wheaton College in Illinois and the president of the American Society of Church History.  His scholarly expertise is the Victorian era, the period that has done so much to shape our Christmas celebrations today, and he is an expert on Christmas.  He is the author or editor of over twenty books, including Twelve Classic Christmas Stories: A Feast of Yuletide Tales and The Oxford Handbook of Christmas.

In this festive episode of 'Big Shot Bob' featuring Robert Horry and the crew, the conversation kicks off with some light-hearted banter and nostalgia. Robert reminisces about watching classic Eddie Murphy SNL skits and his transformative career, noting a shift towards family-friendly movies. The hosts then dive into a passionate discussion about the legitimacy of Christmas and 'Die Hard' as Christmas movies, followed by an analysis of the NBA's Christmas Day matchups, expressing excitement over key games while humorously critiquing some teams' performances.    As the episode progresses, attention shifts to a deep dive into Luca Dončić's style of play, discussing accusations of him foul-hunting and citing criticisms from other players like Jalen Brown. They transition smoothly into examining overall NBA viewership, noting its significant increase, and discuss the likeability of emerging teams like the Oklahoma City Thunder and the finesse in the Spurs' up-and-coming squad under stellar coaching.    The show wraps up with holiday picks for upcoming bowl games, notably highlighting Alabama's and Miami's surprising wins, and making predictions for the New Year's games. In a festive twist, the hosts conclude with a hilarious holiday-themed edition of 'Black Crime or White Crime,' underscoring the ridiculousness of human behavior irrespective of race. This heartwarming, engaging, and funny episode rounds off with a special Big Shot of the Week giving kudos to Idaho's Secret Santa for spreading joy and compassion during the holidays.    00:00 Introduction and Holiday Spirit  00:27 Eddie Murphy's Legacy and SNL Memories  02:16 Debating Christmas Movies  03:37 NBA Christmas Day Lineup  05:08 Coaching and Team Dynamics  11:04 LeBron's Christmas Preference  16:29 Surprising NBA Team Performances  34:22 Flopping and Foul Chasing in the NBA  40:05 Unfair Calls in the NBA  41:44 Viewership Surge in the NBA  46:23 College Football Highlights  48:46 College Football Playoff Debate  50:56 Bowl Game Predictions  01:00:03 Big Shot of the Week: Secret Santa of Idaho  01:01:49 Holiday Edition: Black Crime or White Crime  01:12:44 Holiday Wishes and Sign-Off

#203: Not every December needs tinsel-level perfection. We open the gift box on real holiday life—the joy, the mess, and the logistics no one puts on a card—and invite you to build a season that actually fits. With Ivy at the mic, we swap polite scripts for honest takes on gift pressure, Santa fairness for kids, and the surprising relief of doing less but doing it well.We dig into the stress cycle of adult gift exchanges and share a saner alternative: fewer, better presents or one intentional standout that shows you paid attention all year. Then we tackle the Santa dilemma—how to keep the magic when classmates compare “from Santa” gifts. Our fix is simple and kind: let big-ticket items come from parents, and keep Santa for small, universal surprises. From pajamas versus full outfits to real tree versus fake tree, we keep choices judgment-free and rooted in what your budget, schedule, and bandwidth can handle.Family dynamics get the same practical treatment. If Christmas at your house tends to ignite overcooked expectations, try time-boxed visits, arrive-early/leave-early plans, or a light ritual like morning mimosas to set a calmer tone. We talk Elf on the Shelf burnout, wrapping waste, and how to redesign traditions when you're postpartum, stretched thin, or just not in the mood for extra chores. And because holidays should still be fun, we trade movie hot takes (Elf, Love Actually, Die Hard) and nominate a few songs for retirement. The throughline is agency: you can love the season, skip the performance, and still make room for wonder.If the holidays feel more like logistics than magic, you're not broken—you're busy and human. Use this conversation to set kinder boundaries, simplify your list, and protect the parts of December that really matter. If this resonated, tap follow, share with a friend who needs permission to do less, and leave a quick review to help others find the show.You can now send us a text to ask a question or review the show. We would love to hear from you! Follow me on social: https://www.instagram.com/babbles_nonsense/

Holiday edition episode

Die Hard (1988)Directed By: John McTiernanStarring: Bruce Willis, Alan Rickman, Bonnie Bedelia, Karl WinslowIn our final Christmas episode of 2025, we're settling the age old debate if Die Hard is a Christmas Movie or not. We think most people have seen this movie, and you probably should if you're into this show because we're just gonna give it all away. IMDB.com describe Die Hard as: "A New York City cop, John McClane, tries to save his estranged wife and several others taken hostage by terrorists during a Christmas Eve party at the Nakatomi Plaza Skyscraper in Los Angeles, California."We Also Talked About:Blowout (Tubi)Eyes Wide Shut (Tubi)One Battle After Another (Amazon)Co-Defendents - Live from Red Lion (Youtube)Chesky (From Co-Defendents) (Spotify)The Grinch that Stole B*tches (Tubi)A Meowy Christmas (Tubi)Like what you hear here?

Jeff Hunt joins the show. We discuss and break down the movie Die Hard. We have a conversation of whether or not it is a Christmas Movie

Caomh McGillion briefly stops by to help Cam sum up Bruce Willis' 30 VOD & Limited Release Movies prior to his retirement.   Which initial ones were rather reasonable B-movies/unofficial DIE HARD sequels?   Which ones easily rivaled the most infamous Steven Seagal/Mel Gibson/John Travolta/Sylvester Stallone/Eric Roberts/Mickey Rourke movies of late?   How did the producer of NARC/LONE SURVIVOR/THE IRISHMAN orchestrate such a ponzi scheme with these bottom-of-the-barrel Action flicks?   Were any of the other ensemble comedies & mystery flicks surprisingly well-done despite only having Bruce in a brief part?   All that and a proper farewell to one of cinema's once popular stars!     MOVIES REVIEWED: Set Up, Catch .44, Lay the Favorite, The Cold Light of Day, Fire with Fire, The Prince, Vice (2015), Rock the Kasbah, Extraction (2016), Precious Cargo, Marauders, Once Upon a Time in Venice, First Kill, Acts of Violence, Reprisal, Air Strike, Motherless Brooklyn, 10 Minutes Gone, Trauma Center, Survive the Night, Hard Kill, Breach, Cosmic Sin, Midnight in the Switchgrass, Out of Death, Survive the Game, APEX, Deadlock, Fortress, American Siege, Gasoline Alley, A Day to Die, Fortress: Sniper's Eye, Corrective Measures, Vendetta (2022), White Elephant, Wrong Place, Wire Room, Paradise City & Assassin (2023)             MUSIC USED: "Torn Jeans Medium" by Apple Free-To-Use Music.   "Die Hard 1 & 3 Trailer Music" by John Erik Alexander.   "Cool Rock," "Exhilarate," "Hitman," "Hot Rock," "Delay Rock" and "Rock Hybrid" by Kevin MacLeod.

We turn our attention from The Hobbit to a long-hidden Tolkien gem: his 1936 Christmas poem, “Noel.”  We take a look at the history of the poem's rediscovery, its deep-rooted Tolkien-esque imagery, and why its message of hope stands uniquely in Tolkien's literary career. We discuss: The surprising 2013 rediscovery of “Noel” and how Tolkien scholars tracked it down through forgotten school annuals and convent archives. The poem's Nordic and Middle-earth flavor in the early stanzas—and the “eucatastrophic” shift when a child is born. Song and music as markers of Tolkien's poetic voice, the emphasis on Mary's song, and what it means for the joy of the world. Why “Noel” is a rare example of Tolkien writing an explicitly Christ-centered poem, and how it stands apart from his other work. The unmistakable hope and gladness that “Noel” brings to the weary, gray world. The craft and subtlety Tolkien brings, never over-explaining the mystery—just inviting us to imagine, wonder, and rejoice. In our extended episode (available for EVERYONE this week! :D. Merry Christmas! Become a member or a patron!), we tackle one of the greatest Christmas questions… is Lord of the Rings a Christmas film!? Does simply watching a film at Christmas imbue it with holiday status, or must its core message embody the “eucatastrophe” of the season? The surprisingly non-Christmas nature of Die Hard and Gremlins. Our favorite Christmas movies, from It's a Wonderful Life to Home Alone, and what really makes a story Christmas-worthy.

It's Die Hard 2 Review time, and because it's Christmas Eve, lightning has apparently decided to strike twice. After saving Nakatomi Plaza barefoot and bleeding in 1988, John McClane is back in 1990, this time trading skyscrapers for snowstorms, terrorists, and one very inconvenient airport. Die Hard 2: Die Harder had massive shoes to fill, and the big question is simple: Did it deliver, or did it just repeat the formula louder?In this episode of Born to Watch, Whitey, Damo, and Dan reunite for a festive breakdown of one of the most debated action sequels of all time. Expectations were sky-high after the original Die Hard rewrote the action rulebook, and Die Hard 2 wastes no time reminding us of that pressure. Bigger explosions, more moving parts, and a whole airport at stake instead of one building. On paper, it should work perfectly.What follows is a classic Born to Watch deep dive. From nude Tai Chi villains with suspiciously zero side-dick continuity to John McClane apparently teleporting between airport locations, nothing escapes scrutiny. The boys unpack the strange creative choices, including the baffling need for a full SWAT team that exists solely to be wiped out, the world's loudest baggage-area shootout that nobody hears, and the endless Basil Exposition dialogue that explains things we can already see happening on screen.William Sadler's villain, Stuart, comes under the microscope, a tough gig when you're following one of cinema's all-time great bad guys. Is he intimidating, forgettable, or just unfairly compared to Hans Gruber? Meanwhile, William Atherton's return as Dick Thornburg raises serious questions about whether this character needed to exist at all, beyond being professionally annoying.The conversation drifts exactly where you'd expect, into airport etiquette, old-school plane phones that cost more than the flight itself, snowmobiles that definitely don't work on water, and the absolute insanity of an airport runway having a convenient metal grate in the middle of it. There's also love for Renny Harlin's maximalist direction, acknowledging that while Die Hard 2 may not be subtle, it is relentlessly committed to spectacle.As always, the episode isn't just about what doesn't work. The lads give Die Hard 2 its flowers where deserved, recognising the impossible task of following a cultural phenomenon and the genuine effort to recreate the tone, humour, and pacing of the original. There are discussions around box office success, audience expectations, and why some sequels are remembered more harshly than they deserve.The episode rounds out with the full Born to Watch experience, sleepers, duds, snorbs reports, random 1990 nostalgia, and side tangents that spiral into Ford Fairlane, Chuck Norris, and the best movie years of all time. It's chaotic, opinionated, and exactly how Die Hard 2 should be discussed, loudly, critically, and with mates.If Die Hard is a perfect Christmas miracle, Die Hard 2 is the messy, over-decorated sequel that still shows up to the party. Strap in, because this one absolutely earns the Die Harder title.JOIN THE CONVERSATION Is Die Hard 2 unfairly judged because of the original? Is this still a Christmas movie, or just airport chaos? What's the most ridiculous moment you'll always defend?Listen now on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, or at BornToWatch.com.au#DieHard2Review #BornToWatch #DieHarder #BruceWillis #ActionMovies #90sAction #MoviePodcast #ChristmasMovies #ActionSequels #FilmReview

Send us a textA birthday hangout turns into a full-on variety show: we kick off with shots and shout-outs, then sprint straight into the Labubu craze and the wild trend of tattooing the toy itself. The hype machine gets a reality check as we break down why collectibles blow up—celebrity co-signs, K-pop adjacency, mystery variants, and the thrill of not knowing what you'll get. From there, we tumble into pop-chart surprises (Baby Shark supremacy, Despacito endurance) and ask why certain songs conquer the world with choreography, repetition, and rhythm that cut across languages.Food heads get fed with hibachi talk, Kiran light, and an unexpected case for Crown Royal chocolate—plus the difference between a “vibe” dinner and a clutch takeout. Then comes a fiery Southern culture segment: Alabama and Mississippi pride meets Texas side-eye, MLK Day politics in Arizona's past, and the way stereotypes stick until someone tells the fuller story. Sports heads get their fix too, with NFL loyalties tested, fantasy heartbreak relived, and the kind of friendly slander that keeps group chats alive.Midway, we open the door on something more intimate: the difference between love and lust, how confidence changes chemistry, and the petty things people do post-breakup (or refuse to). It's raw, funny, and more honest than anyone planned. We pivot to strength and training with BYL shoutouts, celebrating women who lift heavy and giving beginners a nudge to start where they are. And because it's that season, the table explodes over holiday movies: Elf vs Die Hard, Home Alone nostalgia, Friday After Next as an all-timer, and the perennial “does it count as Christmas if it only happens at Christmas?” loophole.Pull up a chair, pour something good, and argue with us in your head. If you laughed, learned, or yelled “that's cap,” hit follow, rate the show, and share this episode with a friend who loves a good debate.

The holidays: a time to gather with friends and family, to enjoy one another’s company as we light candles or sit by a tree and contemplate the year’s passing. It’s also a time to argue with said friends and family about some really dumb stuff. Is Die Hard a holiday movie? Should Mariah Carey officially be crowned “Queen of Christmas?” Has there ever been a good Hanukkah song? You’ll be debating hard hitting questions like this. And on Soundside, we’re here to help you win the argument. It’s our gift to you.

Discover budget-friendly holiday tips and creative gift ideas on Dollars & Sense In this festive episode of Dollars & Sense, hosts Zach Keister and Rob Field dive into the emotional and financial realities of holiday spending. The show kicks off with lighthearted banter about holiday traditions and a playful debate over whether “Die Hard” counts as a Christmas movie, setting the stage for practical advice on surviving the season without overspending. Zach and Rob tackle two major topics: how to avoid blowing your holiday budget and how to give gifts that go beyond the usual — like helping loved ones start a 529 college savings plan or a UTMA custodial account. Listeners learn why emotions drive us to spend more, how “buy now, pay later” services can be a financial trap, and actionable ways to keep spending in check, from making gift lists to crafting homemade presents. The episode also introduces “No Spend January,” a challenge to help listeners recover from December's splurges by spending only on essentials for an entire month. With tips for planning ahead, breaking financial habits, and turning savings into fun, Zach and Rob show how the choices you make now can set the tone for the year ahead. Thinking about ways to be generous without getting tied up in financial knots? Wondering how to make your money work for you and your family? Tune in for expert insights, relatable stories, and a few laughs as Dollars & Sense makes budgeting and financial planning approachable—and even a little fun. 

In this Christmas episode, we break down DIE HARD — the action movie that quietly became the blueprint for the entire genre & the greatest christmas movie ever made. We analyze why John McClane works so well as an everyman hero, how the confined setting of Nakatomi Plaza creates relentless tension, and why the movie's pacing is nearly flawless. We also dive into Alan Rickman's iconic performance as Hans Gruber, the sharp writing, and how Die Hard balances action, humor, and character better than almost any film before or since. Whether you watch it as a Christmas movie or the ultimate action classic, Die Hard remains one of the most perfectly constructed movies ever made — and we break down exactly why.   Chapters: 00:00 It's a Christmas movie 6:57 What makes John McClane a great character? 13:43 Everyone who was supposed to be John McClane 22:20 Alan Rickman almost refused to do this movie 25:47 What makes Hans a great villain 33:26 The movie is actually hilarious 39:51 How to perfectly do action 44:46 Cool facts about the filming location 48:59 Perfect exposition 55:24 Bruce Willis fake feet 56:35 A delightful detail you may have missed 58:14 Gray's theory on Al being a liar 59:59 Fun facts 1:08:28 Our official rating & final thoughts 1:14:04 Cue the music

Send in your music story!It's amazing how a show grows up. We started with wobbly mics and chaotic intros; now we're three and a half years in, juggling season three plans, holiday chaos, and a creator workflow that actually works most days. The conversation opens with gratitude and candor—what lasting commitment feels like when the calendar fills with family visits, three different Christmas dinners, and a sleep schedule that doesn't. We talk numbers without bragging and gear without gatekeeping, then admit the obvious: consistency is the hardest part.The heart of the episode sits behind an espresso machine. A customer drops sexist remarks at 6:30 a.m., and we unpack why speaking up matters, how teams set boundaries, and what real allyship looks like in service work. Minutes later, a smoky haze: the refrigerated display case is literally cooking the sandwiches. Cue problem-solving under pressure, a call to the manager, and a lot of quick thinking. Then the season's absurd punchline—syrup shortages, dark humor at the drive-thru, and a gut check to make sure people are actually okay. That's the theme: laugh at the chaos, but see the human first.We promise a music show and deliver: Wham's Last Christmas nudges Mariah from the holiday throne, sparking a smart chat on charts, nostalgia, and what makes a song “seasonal canon.” We widen the lens with 2025 music moments, from high-profile space stunts to the Grand Ole Opry's 100th birthday and industry reckonings that refuse to be PR-washed. No stan wars here—just a clear look at ownership, legacy, and accountability, and how those stories shape the way we listen.For a warm reset, we pop into a 90s-themed coffee shop with a working tube TV and retro posters, because third places are where culture sticks. We wrap with the perennial debate: which films are “real” Christmas movies—Gremlins, Die Hard, claymation classics, Elf—and why personal rituals matter more than rules. If you're into music culture, creator practice, and the strange comfort of holiday messiness, this one's a cozy ride with sharp edges.Enjoyed the episode?

It's the holiday season once again, so we're back with KJB Christmas Staple John McClane to check out yet another Die Hard movie. This time, John's wife is long gone. The Family he fought so hard to prove himself to in the previous movies want nothing to do with him. Maybe what he needs to do is focus on his work and bring in the fucking 1337 h4x0r that the FBI have just asked him to have a word with. Happy Holidays, from our podcast family to your real family.

In this special holiday episode of The Guns Podcast, host Brent Wheat flies solo while Roy is on the road to break down the firearms, myths, and movie magic found in our favorite Christmas films. Whether you fall on the side that "Die Hard" is the ultimate Christmas movie or prefer the nostalgia of "A Christmas Story," Brent dives deep into the specific models, props, and glaring errors that appear on screen. From the chopped HK94s standing in for MP5s at Nakatomi Plaza to the impossible physics of a hockey-puck flashbang, this episode covers the technical details gun nerds love to spot. Brent also discusses the modified prop guns in "Home Alone," the unspoken anti-gun messaging in "A Christmas Story," and how a minigun from "Predator" made its way into a Bill Murray holiday classic. Join us for a fun, festive look at Hollywood's portrayal of firearms. While these movies provide endless entertainment, Brent reminds us why the silver screen makes for a terrible firearms instructor and how we can use these moments to teach real-world safety to the next generation of shooters. Key Takeaways - The MP5s used by terrorists in Die Hard were actually chopped HK94s because real MP5s were scarce in Hollywood at the time. - Many background guns in movies like Die Hard are actually Japanese MGC model gun replicas, identifiable by allen screw in the forward assist. - The "hockey puck" flashbang used in Die Hard does not exist in reality; it was a Hollywood invention for dramatic effect. - The Daisy Red Ryder in A Christmas Story featured a compass in the stock, a feature that did not exist on the production air rifle of that era. - In Home Alone, the sound of a handheld tape recorder playing a movie clip would be far too tinny to realistically simulate a Thompson submachine gun. - The minigun used by Lee Majors in "Scrooged" is the exact same prop gun used in the movie "Predator." - Hollywood movies often reinforce bad habits; never use entertainment as a substitute for actual firearms training. -- Have a topic idea or a guest you'd like to see in a future episode?
