Welcome Back!!  It's been a very busy couple of weeks but Annie and I are back at it.  And I'm very excited to share that my co-host and Baby Sister is now Dr. Annie Pruitt.  She just defended her dissertation to complete her EdD in Educational Leadership.  SO proud of you, Annie!!!! This week we're still rockin' the Professionals Series and we're talking about our favorite movie musicians - everything from rock star dreams come true to a pretty bad 80's movie with a totally awesome musical ending.  Hope you enjoy this week's episode and look forward to us finishing up The Professionals Series.   What topics would you like to see us take on next?  Share your thoughts with us and send an email to hello@thetopfivepodcast.com  See you next time!!

Welcome to Oscar Week!!!  While Annie and Kris have been pretty busy with regular daily life, we did not want Oscar Week to come and go with no special bonus episode.  We're not doing a full week of episodes like last year, but we do have a fun one for you today. If you're like us, you always have those one or two or five "special nominees" that you've liked and respected for YEARS and it makes you NUTS that these folks have yet to be truly recognized by The Academy.  That's where we're going for this Bonus Episode:  sharing our Top Five Motion Picture professionals (not all actors) who are seriously overdue for that Oscar.   So who do y'all think is overdue for their 45 seconds on the Oscar Stage?  We want to know!  Shoot us an email:  hello@thetopfivepodcast.com 

WHOA!!!  Here's our 75th episode, not including bonus episodes!  I can't believe it - well, yeah, I can, whatever. This week we're keeping The Professionals Series going with our favorite Grifters - Con Men/Con Women, etc.  This started out being a very easy list for me, but then again I was trying not to be overly obvious.  I did trump my sister on a couple of movies, though - one of which I could have sworn we'd watched together, but I'll be quite excited to watch them with her when I visit in April. If you've tried to send us an email in the past few weeks, you probably thought we were making up that address...well, we weren't, I just forgot to renew our domain - oops.  I'm hoping that explains the lack of engagement from our community, LOL. So that email is:  hello@thetopfivepodcast.com.  Let us know if there's a topic you want us to take on!!

I don't know about y'all, but I could talk about movie cops in a dozen different ways - and I think even Annie would say the same.  You often get cops in buddy movies - like Riggs and Murtaugh, Tango and Cash, etc.  And then you have the franchise people - for which we do have something to say in this episode.  And we haven't even talked about TV cops yet at all.  I am trying my darndest not to break Annie's rule after our first episode on teachers. Hope you enjoy this episode.  We still have a ton of professions to get through!  For example: Con Artists Retail Workers Soldiers Priests Um....Prostitutes Do you have one you'd like us to take on?  Email us:  hello@thetopfivepodcast.com  

Okay, raise your hand if this is your favorite series so far?   It might be mine, I haven't decided yet.  But we sure are having a lot of fun. This week, for The Professionals Series, we are talking about our favorite characters who are playing Actors.  That's right - actors playing actors, who knew?  Talking about these characters was great fun for us.   While he didn't make the list, I continue to think about Leonardo DiCaprio's performace in a little Woody Allen movie called CELEBRITY, from 1998.  This was, of course, coming off of Leo's huge star-making turn in TITANIC so it's ironic that he's an actor playing a typical celebrity actor.  Maybe not so many women in his bed, though, I don't know.   Just like any other role, actors playing actors dive deep into research. They study the mannerisms, speech patterns, and body language of actors both past and present to capture the essence of their character's profession. Actors portraying actors might find themselves reflecting on their own experiences in the industry. Drawing from personal anecdotes, struggles, and triumphs can add authenticity to their portrayal and create a layered performance that resonates with audiences (Annie and I had 1 bit of overlap in this show, and it's definitely a reflection of this point here.) What do you think of our list?  We'd love to hear your thoughts - hello@thetopfivepodcast.com 

Mike and Nick continue their journey through Bergman's filmography. Bergman enters the 50's with his story following a couple who met in the orchestra and navigate all the drama that ensues in their lives. Nick calls this film Bergman's "great foreshadowing." Find out why in this episode.

Welcome back to the show and our new Professionals Series!  Now that Annie and I have really started digging into this, I think you're going to be THRILLED with what is coming around the bend.   Doctors Con Artists Priests "Sex-Workers" What ideas do YOU have for professionals we should add to the series?   This episode features ZERO overlap and ZERO cheating by me, mostly - and you'll also get to hear from my niece, Emily, who was home from college for the weekend.  Always exciting when Annie's kids join us on the show! Give us some feedback, people - we WANT it!  hello@thetopfivepodcast.com

Despite veering off the beaten path, we discuss both movies and characterizations that we think reflect disparate elements of the education system and the teaching profession as a whole. It was a unique discussion as Annie and I approached this series concept differently but it gave us context for the series, which I do anticipate will be a BIG one.  We're already working on Doctors, Lawyers, Prostitutes (why not?), and...well, what ideas do y'all have?  We want to hear them!!   Email us today:  hello@thetopfivepodcast.com and give us some suggestions for The Professionals Series!

Happy New Year, Top Five Fans!  And major apologies for taking almost a month off and not telling y'all about it.  Between Annie and me, we just needed to take a Tech Time Out.  But we are BACK and super duper excited for 2024!! Today's episode is highlighting characters from the incredible film career of one Gary Oldman - Oscar-winning Chameleon Actor who is all things sexy, hard-core, and funny...not to mention dangerous, deep, over-the-top, and a variety of other superlative adjectives. Where Gary Oldman is concerned, I always yield to my sister's knowledge of his films because she "found him" first!  She shares a story of how she discovered his films that always makes me nostagic for our college years together.   Anyway:  here's a few more deets on today's episode: The hosts share detailed insights into movies like Sid and Nancy, The Professional, True Romance, Bram Stoker's Dracula, and others. They also discuss their love for the actor himself and his incredible range, noting how he often completely transforms into his characters, making him a favorite actor to many other celebrities. The episode also explores topics such as Oldman's lesser-known roles and the movies the hosts recommend people watch.   Did any of these roles make YOUR list?  Send us an email and let us know!  hello@thetopfivepodcast.com

Author Dale Bridges joins us to discuss his first novel, The Mean Reds, a fun mystery novel featuring Sam, the self-deluded, weed-addled, but utterly relatable film buff protagonist, who encounters a hilarious cast of characters as he attempts to investigate the death of a stripper. Dale talks about the setting of the novel in Mountainview, a liberal college town, how he developed his characters, and how the novel was ultimately published by a university press. Dale also discusses his own development as a writer and offers advice for how others can persist and improve. The Mean Reds is a fun read and would make a great holiday gift, especially for movie buffs.Dale's website, including how to buy the bookhttps://dalebridges.org/Dale's art-related website:https://www.dalebridgesart.com/Thoughts?

Welcome to another episode! Unfortunately, for you Marvel fans, this will be a nightmare for 60 minutes. Phil and John try to answer the most important question of our time: Is The Avengers the most overrated movie ever? Then we turn our attention to a video game movie about racing, which is really a simulation, but really it's real life.

Last week, we discussed Iron Man, the solid start to the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Tonight, we discuss one of the worst superhero (or maybe just...) movies ever made! Yeah, The Incredible Hulk is that bad! We're also talking about Christopher Nolan's Oppenheimer. Is it as good as the hype it's gotten or is it getting praised because it's Nolan?
