Fleeing an evil old-timey boat captain, immortal kiddo/murderer Kenny seeks refuge with Dr. Anne Lindsey, who promptly reunites the little monster with Duncan and Kenny's old teacher, Amanda. The Rewatchers try to figure out why Anne is in this episode, why an 800-year-old still wants milk with dinner, and why the relentless darkness of this episode culminates with non-consensual minor mouth kissing.
In the next installment of the Adrian Tapes, Highlander’s most fabled cassettes, we get some AP History with AP himself. Tune in to hear about Christopher Lambert fearing the mighty blows of Richard Moll, the perils of fighting on train tracks, and shooting with a real knife FOR SOME CRAZY REASON.
(SPECIAL VIDEO EPISODE) In a special Highlander Worldwide Gathering convention episode, the Rewatchers chat with Grant Kempster, founder of the storied Highlander fanclub Highlander Heart. The gang chats about the founding of the original fan-zine, Peter Wingfield's coat catching fire on the set of Endgame, marrying Dracula in a Highlander fan film, and more! Check out the Highlander Heart Fan Club in the link: https://www.facebook.com/groups/highlanderheart/
When Mac’s immortal pal Kit (the degenerate gambler, not the talking car) comes to town to buy a race horse, Mac has his hands full keeping him away from Amanda, who once posed as a French tourist to swindle Kit out of a casino. The Rewatchers discuss the rare lighthearted episodes that actually STAYS lighthearted, a life and death library emergency, and Super Mario’s guest appearance as a lecherous creep.
In another spotlight on Highlander adjacent properties, the Rewatchers take on Razorback- the first film by the Highlander Russel Mulcahy. In this bonkers outback horror show, an enormous armored boar and a crew of Mad Max villains (separately) terrorize the Outback, claiming the life of a wayward animal rights activist. The activist’s widower must then team up with a disgraced boar hunter and a hot farmer to seek revenge on both man and pig. The Rewatchers dig deep into some vegetarian messagin...
In this simultaneously serious and profoundly silly chapter, Mac lets the dogs out on the immortal Kanis (groan), a pervy leather-daddy who hunts down immortals with a vicious pack of dogs. Meanwhile, Richie is somehow able to look up from a giant hot dog long enough to identify a Carrot Top look-alike as the junkie who shot Tessa and transforms into BEAST MODE. The Rewatchers sink their teeth into the completely outlandish style of this leather-clad villain, appreciate Richie's own crime fighti...
In this one-of-a-kind bonus episode, the Rewatchers discuss the film Alligator Shoes, directed and starring Highlander legend/friend of the pod, Clay Borris! Conflict simmers between the Super Borris Brothers when their young aunt comes to live them after an extended stay in a mental health facility. The Rewatchers talk about building emotional tension, fighting the disabled, chugging beer on film (with no hands!), and unexpected incest. Buckle up, this one is a wild ride!
Did you think the Rewatchers didn't have any more Highlander World Wide content left? You've never been more wrong and you should be embarrassed. The Rewatchers are joined by storied (pun super intended) Highlander writer Morrie Ruvinsky (credits include Not to Be, The Fighter, Brothers in Arms, The Blitz) and his writing/life partner Alicia Ruvinsky (Willie) to talk about blasting out that first draft, taking a Talmud class with David Abramowitz, and dealing with Canadian censorship.
After an all-growed-up Richie Ryan lures the autistic immortal Mikey into coming home with him with pocket scraps, Richie and Duncan must protect their new friend from a one-dimension immortal headhunter, extreme police brutality, and the legion of unenlightened douche bags populating Seacouver. The Rewatchers shed a tear while debating the virtues of mercy killings, try to compose a more compelling villain than Tyler King, and consider the role of fate in the immortal game.
In the rare minisode that actually qualifies as “mini”, the Rewatchers discuss Dance for Joy, Elizabeth Gracen’s short documentary about dance therapy. The team experiences the uplifting power of dance, uncovers the mysterious Highlander Opera, and teases some upcoming goodies! WATCH THE AMAZING DOCUMENTARY IN THE LINK BELOW: https://vimeo.com/251750478
Charlie unexpectedly returns to Seacouver in a vain attempt to assassinate Cord, an outrageously dramatic immortal arms dealer who once saved Joe’s life, threatening the bromance triangle between Mac, Joe, and Charlie. The Rewatchers rewrite Mac friend-dumping Joe (it’s not me, it’s you), mourn the super preventable death of Charlie, and reopen an old wound by revisiting the entrances to Joe’s Bar.
After discovering the silver bracelet he gave his first love (to cuck his kinsman, Wolverine) in a slimy art dealer’s collection, Mac returns to the Scottish highlands to confront a grave robbing Viking warrior while dodging the most aggro innkeeper in Glenfinnan. The Rewatchers dive into some ancient Norse Mythology, discuss baby’s first buzz, and enjoy- then lament- the thousand plays of Bonny Portmore.
Sparks fly in this amazing panel of Highlander directors Richard Martin (Valkyrie, Duende), Don Paonessa (The Devil You Know, editor on literally everything), and Clay Borris (The Watchers, Line of Fire). Tune in for some tips on how to shoot your day, to figure out what happens to an immortal's severed head, and to count off the number of F-bombs dropped.

In this special episode, Keith goes on a solo quest to the frozen peaks of Mount Niri to interview Highlander 3 director and music video legend, Andy Morahan! Tune in to hear about directing Guns N' Roses, getting stranded in the snowy mountains of Canada, and Christopher Lambert getting bashed in the face by Mario Van Peebles.
In this one of a kind HL3 chronicle, the Rewatchers (gently) interrogate hugger busker/hardboiled lawman Matin Neufeld who chewed the scenery as Lt. John Stenn.

There can be only one audio file! The Rewatchers use the power of illusion to combine all five (count 'em five) episodes of the their Highlander 3: the Final Dimentia coverage into one loony (Napoleon) package. Tune in and get ready to laugh more than Mako's severed head!
Things hurdle toward an inevitable conclusion (illusion?) when Mac hitches a ride to Axis Chemicals in the fastest taxi he can find to rescue his son from Kane’s clutches. The Rewatchers begrudgingly discuss Mac’s immortal pecker, dissect a joyless joyride redux, and wonder if the game is truly over... again.
Things finally start happening when Kane crashes Connor's late night kendo session for an ill-advised, trapese-based, sword fight in a Bhuddist Shrine and then the third John (Stenn) finally reveals Brenda's fate (as road pizza). The Rewatchers break down the timeline of Mac's kendo journey in mind-numbing detail, try to figure out if holy ground makes swords explode, and rewrite the emotion impact of Brenda's ubrupt sendoff.
In the third of (who knows how many) episodes, Kane magically teleports to NYC so he can get down to important business: eating condoms, soliciting racist caricatures for sex, and beating miniaturized Wesley Snipes in Three-card Monte. The Rewatchers try to figure out how Kane uses the power of illusion to be a bird, learn about a real-life plot to capture Mario Van Peebles from set, and wonder if a totally unnecessary medical examiner is making a sly nod to Zeist.
After Kane and his goons suddenly reanimate underneath a mysterious Japanese laboratory, Mac returns to New York and abandons his adopted son John to the care of his friend... also John. The Rewatchers dive deep into a bizarre mugging on the Streets of NYC, meet the world’s worst doctor (and his star patient- Loony Napoleon), and try to figure out the new love interest- Brenda 2.0.
Join the Rewatchers as they kick off their exciting coverage of Highlander III: The Final Dimension (Scottish Fighter III? the Sorcerer?). After Connor MacLeod brakes the fourth wall to leave Scotland behind for the mystical mountains of Japan, he must learn to respect the power illusion (which is to say, learn nothing) to take on the cartoonishly evil Kane and prevent Kane from ushering in an age of darkness and nipple rings (but mostly nipple rings). The Rewatchers run through the endless titl...
The legend continues as the Rewatchers dust off another old cassette to bring you another behind the scenes look from Adrian Paul about the Season 1 Finale, the Hunters. Hear the Highlander describe the hectic process of rewriting the script, ADR-ing the emotional climax, and hulking out as Duncan.
Celebrate the end of Season 3 by counting down the best and worst of the first three seasons! Tune in to hear some sweet sweet listicles, play a few heated games, and witness a slow motion train wreck when when the Rewatchers turn the show into a drinking game.
The Kalas Cycle comes to a thrilling conclusion when Kalas threatens to expose immortals to the world if Mac doesn’t serve up his own head on a silver platter (or, you know, rely on a stroke of good luck to make everything work out just fine in the end). The Rewatchers try to figure out how a quickening can blow up an underground computer disc, unpack Amanda’s apparent stay in a harem, and pour one out for the uzi-wielding hero of legend: Vemas.
After Amanda busts Kalas out of prison with a grappling hook crossbow in an ill-fated attempt to take his head, Duncan must stop Kalas from kidnapping his friends while simultaneously preventing the buddy-cop duo of Joe and Methos from killing an innocent woman who wants to out the Watchers to a newspaper. The Rewatchers admire Kalas's form on an amazing golf swing/beheading, wish Mac would stop Mac-splaining danger to Amanda, and write the world's least salacious fan fiction about Kalas: Jazz C...
HLWW - Clay Day: A Conversation with Director Clay Borris by Highlander Rewatched
Maurice's horribly tragic prostitute niece falls in with immortal art thief (and Supreme Court Justice, Elena) Kagan, a murderous twit that tries to guilt Mac with the story of his rough upbringing at the hands of Tarsus, Kagan's twisted mustachioed mentor. The Rewatchers discuss the lack of reasonable doubts in this episode (and the moral quandaries that could have been), get the heebie-jeebies from Maurice's relationship with his niece, and chatter more than anyone should about insurance.
When an immortal Nazi wakes up after forty plus years of drowning, compliments of Father Bernie (Sanders) and a group of French freedom fighters, Mac must prevent the ageless war criminal from exacting revenge on the old priest by karate fighting white-supremacists goons. The Rewatchers discuss Mac's surprisingly relaxed attitude toward neo-Nazis (seriously Mac, wreck this clown), wish a tearful/relieved (for her) farewell to Anne, and debate (yet again) how the he(ck) holy ground works.
Unwrap your cassette player, because the Rewatchers are bringing you another of the fabled Adrian Tapes for Christmas, all about the role of ad libs in the first season! Tune in to hear the Highlander himself discuss a surprise kiss on the mouth from a salty Russian, screams about where Mac comes from, and the story of Richie's first time playing with swords like a big boy.
When the Rewatchers get down in the dumps focusing on the stats of their (amazing) listenership, Christopher Lambert drops by with his worst friends to perform an absurd rendition of a Christmas Carol to (somehow) open their Scrooge-like hearts to the true meaning of podcasting. The Rewatchers learn the beauty of consent from iconic rapper/foley artist Ice-T, party with Brob Cratchet's family, and join into a truly... unique, sing along.
