It’s the podcast where a Filmmaker and a Comedian get airlifted into the chaos of the 80's movies you love, hate, hate to love or love to hate... to save the President, possibly? And definitely to avoid getting our heads exploded.

Actor and comedian Kevin Sciretta talks about the days of actually going to video stores, being a child soldier for Captain Power, the end of the world, attending Catholic school and, of course, LeBron James' dong. The PopFury Podcast has moved! Please visit us on our new website at PopFuryPodcast.com! SHOW NOTES: 0:00 Intro 1:10 Kevin's channel surfing the El Rey network led to him watching 'classic' kung fu movie, 8 Diagram Pole Fighter. We geek out over our love of cheesy 70s kung fu movies. 11:00 We recall what it was like to actually go to the video store to rent movies and suffer indignities like out-of-stock rentals, misleading movie descriptions, and risky rentals solely based on only knowing the actor. 17:15 Sammy remembers NYC regional TV. Kevin killed for Captain Power. He gets deep with archetypal regional TV shows. 25:00 Crystal Pepsi might be coming back. Kevin thinks it is a precursor to a zombie apocalypse. FYI he is always ready for the end of the world since he saw the Terminator. 30:00 Kevin and Sammy bond over their stints in Catholic school. Kevin attended a performing arts high school in Manhattan. 42:45 We talk about John Carpenter's Escape From New York and Assault on Precinct 13. Sammy wonders if you can flat out kill a kid in a movie any more. 48:45 Lance Armstrong compared himself to Lord Voldemort. Kevin labels Armstrong an “authentic villian” and declares Sheryl Crowe the “songbird of a generation” 53:45 Kevin is excited to talk about LeBron James showing his dick. Like, way too excited. 58:45 Outro
