What would summer be without a little adventure! And sometimes it's even more fun when it's a "kidventure", so we're going back to our childhoods with this episode on a couple of our favorite kid-led adventure stories. The first one we talk about is probably the quintessential movie in this category - Brian's pick is Richard Donner's THE GOONIES from 1985. You know it, you probably love it, and it was most likely a staple of your childhood, too! We try to pinpoint just why this one still works for us after all these years, whether it be personal connections or just those little moments in the film that really make it special. Then Michele introduces Brian to a favorite from her childhood, 1995's HEAVYWEIGHTS! A throwback to the irreverent movies and TV shows for kids from the 90s, this is one that has really only gotten better over the years because of the important message at its core. Plus, it has one of Ben Stiller's best performances ever, AND a great dance sequence from Paul Fieg, so what's not to love?! Happy listening - and please don't put Twinkies on your pizza.

Beats working 9-5!- Throwing Away the Script- Phobias- Feet- Too Many PetsFailure to plan is a plan to fail. Some people are good 'wingers', but most people need a plan. Plans are good, you can rehearse them, go through them, see what does and doesn't work, and refine them until you've got a solid plan. It's why Paul Fieg's terrible brand of "comedy" doesn't work, he just lets the actors improv and cuts together the "best" bits, as opposed to actually writing good jokes. Only the masters of improvisation have any chance of being just as good as those that hone and plan. And believe me, there's only a handful of those folks.Everyone is scared of something. Creepy insects, heights, murderers are all pretty common fears to have. We stay away from those things because they can kill us, it's just survival instinct. Then there's the weird ones. Arachibutyrophobia: the fear of peanut butter. Porphyrophobia: the fear of the color purple (and I don't mean that terrible Spielberg movie, that's a perfectly normal fear to have). Gamophobia: the fear of marriage (and as any good hack comedian would put it: "AKA BEING A MAN"). But the weirdest of all? Missingthenewepisodeofhereswhatidontgetaphobia. Don't worry, we'll help you through that one.The human body is weird. There's various textures and crevasses, areas that range from rock hard to supple and soft. There's plenty of places to look and be in to. But feet? No way. They're ragged from all the walking we do, they're one of the quickest areas to be dirty and smelly, and yet there's these groups of weirdos that A:) refuse to cover them up, even in public, and B:) the weirdos that worship at the altar of group A. Degenerates that get their rocks off on ladies' feet are some of the weirdest around, because they're so outspoken. There's nastier stuff to be into but those freaks keep it to themselves, whereas the foot fetishist can be found on many an Instagram account asking "feet pics?".How many pets are too many? I think we've figured it out. Small animals like fish, crabs, snakes, and anything else that gets held in a large tank? Those get counted by the number of tanks, not the individual animals. Animals that be actively walking around and stuff? The limit is N+2, where N is the number of people in the household. You live by yourself? Having four dogs is too many. Two cats and two dogs? Too many. A hamster, a rabbit, and three cats? TOO MANY. In a house of four? You can have two dogs, a cat, some fish, a hamster, and a bird. Now, is that a lot of pets, YES. People will definitely know you like animals, but they can be taken care of. And then there's the monsters. The hoarders. The ones on TLC that have 16 cats and love them all because they have so much love to give. I'm sorry crazy cat lady, you don't have pets you have a zoo.All this and more on this week's fast and furious episode!

Today we’re sipping martinis with Paul Fieg, the director behind Bridesmaids, Ghostbusters, Freaks & Geeks, Mad Men and more. The IMDB credits alone are a tome, and it’s safe to say that if you’ve ever set foot in a theater, you’ve probably seen his work. But what you *might* not know is that Paul is also the host of the hilarious IGTV show Quarantine Cocktail Time, and the creator of Artingstall’s Gin. Not only is the bottle gorgeous, but what’s inside is pretty special too; consider it a gentle, gateway gin for juniper-wary drinkers. So shake yourself up a martini, and join Paul and I as we chat about booze, the beauty of hotel bars, and our dream locations to film around the globe.
