Bram Stoker's Dracula

In this sexy, titillating episode—directed by Francis Ford Coppola (not really)—we learn that Jesus might have been the first vampire, take the controversial stance that eating babies is definitely not okay, ponder if sucking on Gary Oldman’s chest is a solid trade for eternal life, and Whitney absolutely cracks the code of the symbolism behind this movie and horror movies in general.

Rush, Rush by Paula Abdul

In this special bonus episode we watched and talked about the music video for Paula Abdul's Rush, Rush, which features Keanu as the male love interest/greaser/car racer. Spoiler alert: this song is still a banger as we learned after listening. Feel free to support us on Patreon!

My Own Private Idaho

We’re back after a short hiatus and boy did we have an episode! Whitney starts us off by talking about the Keanussance we’re currently experience in our culture, we discuss our thoughts on the film, have a riveting game of Pop Quiz Asshole, and Whitney helps Andrew stumble across the finish line in stepping through the plot of this movie.

Bill and Ted's Bogus Journey

Let's all go on a bogus journey together, figuratively and, unfortunately, literally. Join your hosts as they dig for the redeeming qualities of this film. We ponder what other sequels worked after 20+ year hiatuses (and somehow don't mention Star Wars) and philosophize about what that might mean for the third film. Evan and Andrew reveal a shared, massive pop culture blind spot during Pop Quiz Asshole and Whitney will definitely convinced you to Google “Bogus Journey Horror Movie”. Feel free to...

Point Break

Join your hosts as they discuss Keanu's first-ever action film, Point Break. Pop Quiz Asshole makes its triumphant return, Evan bombards us with fun facts, Whitney draws a very compelling parallel with the Ex-Presidents and the cast of Rent (the musical), and Andrew was so invested in this film he forgot when the internet was invented.

Tune In Tomorrow

Join your favorite on-air talent as they recount the harrowing tale of trying to track down a watchable copy of this film. Whitney enjoys it for nostalgia, Evan loves the cars and dapper Keanu, and you can't sneak a single Mario Kart reference by Andrew's keen eye. Feel free to support us on Patreon!

I Love You to Death

Parenthood

Join your hosts as they explore this heartwarming romp about what it means to have and be in a family. We realize this might've been the gig that provided Steve Martin with many more gigs as "dad" in movies and ponder on why someone would choose "Leaf" as their name.

Bill & Ted's Excellent Adventure

Your most excellent hosts travel with Keanu Reeves and Alex Winter on a bodacious journey through space and time. It’s not an exaggeration to say that you will perhaps learn more bizarre facts on this episode than all of our previous episodes combined. We talk about causal loops in time travel, phone booth stuffing, and all the anachronisms you could possibly handle. Feel free to support us on Patreon!

Dangerous Liaisons

Welcome to episode ten where we introduce a brand new segment complete with its own badass intro music, Evan gives us a little hint about who he’d probably like to be seduced by (hint: it’s Javier Bardem), Whitney is puzzled as to why the movie went to so much trouble to reveal John Malkovich, and Andrew is unable to split the difference with his overall thoughts because he’s forced to go first.

The Prince of Pennsylvania

Your preferred pack of professional podcasters perseveres painfully through The Prince of Pennsylvania. We all had such high hopes going in—based almost entirely on the cover art, it seems—and left the movie feeling a bit confused and wanting a more grounded story. Feel free to support us on Patreon!

Permanent Record

Content warning: this is a film about teen suicide. If you're sensitive to that, you may want to skip this one. In this episode, Andrew reveals that he is an uncultured swine, Evan shows too much interest in the phrase "going together", and Whitney realizes that she has the exact opposite taste in movies from Ev thus far.

The Night Before

We've arrived at our first official Keanu comedy and boy is it a doozy! This movie has everything: jokes that have aged poorly, sex trafficking, racial stereotypes, our very first Keanu "Whoa!", and George Clinton and the P-Funk All Stars. Hijinx ensue!

River's Edge

Your three thinking, feeling, empathetic hosts visit—or in Evan’s case revisit—River’s Edge, a place where the main form of currency is a six-pack of warm beer and weed is apparently free courtesy of the local murderer. We discuss the merits of Dennis Hopper’s saxophone skills (there are none), important phone numbers to remember like 9-1-1, and before the episode wraps we each rank the Keanu films thus far.

Brotherhood of Justice

Your three heroes bravely venture to a perfect-yet-imaginary town in California where the students have decided to take matters of right and wrong into their own hands in between classes in what appears to be a treehouse. We learn that Evan definitely didn’t wear a sweater-blazer combo in high school, Whitney tells us five words she never thought she’d say, and Andrew doesn’t think any party (drug party or not) is complete with hors d'oeuvres.

Flying / Dream to Believe

In this episode your hosts discuss the 1986 gymnastics film Flying, sometimes referred to as Dream to Believe/Teenage Dream. We learn what the word "distaff" means, Whitney does a better job of selling us on this film in five words than the entire marketing department, and we take a roughly five-minute tangent to discuss hot dogs. Overall, it was a perfect episode. Feel free to support us on Patreon! We’ll have behind-the-scenes content, exclusive videos, extra podcast segments and more: http://...

Youngblood

In this episode of the podcast we discuss the 80s ice hockey masterpiece Youngblood. Andrew dekes again on Evan and Whitney’s intros, Whitney has difficulty comprehending young Rob Lowe, and Evan would recommend this film to people that are not his enemies.

One Step Away

In this episode your hosts are discussing the 1985 (short?) film One Step Away. We're not going to sugarcoat it here: this is a movie full of plot holes, time jumps, nonsensical dialogue, unclear character motivation, and painful visual fidelity. Despite these myriad problems, we still somehow found a way to talk about it for almost an hour and have a lot of fun doing so. Feel free to support us on Patreon!

Introductions and Why Keanu Reeves?

In this inaugural episode, we discuss the inception of this podcast and each of your hosts share what drew them to the project, their favorite Keanu moments and movies, and what they're most looking forward to watching and discussing. Evan also compares Keanu to the band Creed much to the chagrin of his cohosts. Feel free to support us on Patreon!
