I'll be honest here: High & Tight 242 is kinda the shit. Benny and RZ cover a very wide spectrum of awesome stuff. For example, they offer a fantastic quote from Val Kilmer regarding the passing of the late great, Sam Shepard. Death isn't awesome, but Kilmer love it. On a brighter note, RZ tells a funny baseball story, and Benny explains why you pansies should watch The Missing. Also, they get pretty darn deep on WWII films Hacksaw Ridge, and Dunkirk. Each of those films will treat you very well...

Episode 239er brings is loud and proud. Benny and RZ are here, they're top tier, and they're here to drink beer.

On a personal note, Benny and RZ discuss the size of Patriot Superbowl rings, and how those things make other Super Bowl Rings look like High School Graduation rings. Finally, there's a quick Benny-Weddi...

Benny and RZ kick off the chatter with a little discussion about the White Sox throwing the Series, and and how Shoeless Joe did it to make money for food.

And THIS leads to some introspective dialogue about The Sandlot, which naturally leads to a nice conversation about kids movies, and...

Ladies and Gentlemen - Sit down and buckle up for Episode 235. Why? Because it's a wild ride, that's why. In this episode, Benny and RZ do what they do best: Talk baseball. Specifically the Bryce Harper fight, and why it was great. Also what made it weak (Buster Posey). Just before the main event, Benny and RZ have a nice fireside chat about Alien:Covenant. The main event however, is where the money's at. Our "Analysts" really get to the bottom of the never ending conflict between whales and sha...

Finally, the boys try to determine whether or not the so...

Benny B and RZ talk wrestling a little, then ease nicely into a little Alan Thicke love, based off a quick Thicke clip from Tim and Eric Awesome Show Nice Job (Cinco Napple).
