Instead of torturing themselves with a shark movie, Dustin & Logan are shaking it up with freewheeling conversation about a few different topics in an episode they're calling SharkTopicFest! Don't worry though. They're not straying too far and still sampling an Oktoberfest beer. Firestone & Walker's Oaktoberfest keeps them company as they rank they're favorite sharks, discuss which bad shark movie they've covered had the most potential, and create a new hit cartoon about sharks! They als...

Logan & Dustin are still getting into the swing of Sharktoberfest. Sadly, this episode's beer Hold My Pretzel by Single Speed Brewing isn't quite helping to set the tone. The film however takes things in an interesting direction as it asks the question, "what if Freddy Krueger was a shark?" The SYFY original film, Nightmare Shark is a dream hopping thriller starring the Rookie of the Year, a guy who is not F. Murray Abraham, and some inconsistent southern accents. The boys also revisit Oktob...

Sharktoberfest 3 gets off to a rocky start with a shark movie starring Stephen Baldwin and an egregious amount of stock footage. Shark in Venice is an Indiana Jones-like treasure hunting adventure where nothing exciting happens and no part of it was actually shot in Venice. Oh, and there's sharks, too. Luckily, Logan and Dustin have Dimensional Brewing's Gordonfest to keep them company as they attempt to breakdown a movie that seems to be made up of footage from other movies. Dustin also has a #...

It's that magical time of year again when our hosts watch shark movies and sample Oktoberfest beers and test their sanity! Welcome to the third annual Sharktoberfest! To kick things off, Dustin and Logan are watching the unattainable standard of shark movies and arguably one of the greatest films in cinema history, Jaws! Paired with this master work is another high watermark in the show's canon, Schell's Oktoberfest. So grab your favorite festbier and watch along with the wild, wet men of podcas...

The boys are trying something different and talking about the recently dropped teaser for HBO's adaptation of the Last of Us, Dustin and Logan's favorite video game. Does it look any good?

Logan and Dustin are back with another episode of One & Done, the show where they talk about a television series that only lasted for a single season and they only have time it takes for them to finish a single drink. They're cheating a little bit by covering the Netflix limited series, Midnight Mass, but they make the rules, so...oh well. They do a deep dive of what they liked about the show and enjoy reliving the story all while sipping on a glass of Bourbon Barrel Cabernet Sauvignon from ...

The boys are trying something different as they talk about two different franchises with big installments this year: Dr. Strange in the Multiverse of Madness and Stranger Things season 4. Both are about alternate dimensions, young girls with super powers, and general fan service. Dustin and Logan tackle them in separate sections (time codes below) and sample Goose Island's Neon Beer Hug IPA. Logan is also sampling something else that has him super dialed in! Enjoy the madness! 0:00 - Cold open/b...

It's the official end of Sharktoberfest's big, hot, nasty, sopping wet summer and the sharks and heat are colliding with Robert Rodriguez's The Adventures of Sharkboy and Lavagirl in 3-D! Dustin and Logan sip on some Arnold Palmer Spiked as they try to figure out how the hell to even talk about this kids' movie where everything might be dream but also maybe nothing is. It's confusing. They also suggest some superhero films that aren't DC or Marvel properties, have a little wrap-up discussion abo...

Dustin and Logan have watched some movies that involve volcanoes, but now they're watching a documentary ABOUT volcanoes...kind of. They watch Werner Herzog's Into the Inferno, a film about the role volcanoes play in certain cultures, including being the home of a volcano god that seems to just be some guy. The eccentric writer/director/narrator himself stops by to tell the boys how pointless everything is. Then, Logan talks about Sharcano, a movie that is surprisingly a documentary about the co...

We warned you that this was gonna be a super hot and wet summer. Logan and Dustin ogle some big sweaty hunks as they discuss the Steven Soderbergh film, Magic Mike; starring Channing Tatum, Matthew McConaughey, and a bunch of other meat boys. They drink some Camp Shandy Shore Lemon from Topling Goliath and chase that with some Mike's Hard Lemonade (do you get it?). And then in the Special Features segment, Logan rants against Fireball and the boys pick out their strip persona and routine. CONTEN...

Here's the bonus features segment from the White Fire episode that was cut since walking through the movie was exhausting enough. Logan & Dustin decided to just recommend a few heist movies that had actual heists in them and didn't focus on the main character wanting to date their sister (listen to the full episode for context).
Aug 05, 2022•26 min
The steamy summer continues with White Fire, a heist movie that is sort of about a diamond that burns to the touch, but mostly about an incredibly uncomfortable romance plot. And all earthly laws are thrown out the window because Dustin and Logan are drinking White Claws! The boys grapple with their feelings on hard seltzers while grappling with a gross and utterly confusing film. Hang on for dear life!

Dustin & Logan are returning to familiar waters with a ridiculous shark movie! Sand Sharks came out in 2012 but all the characters are social-distancing like it was 2020. It also refreshingly rips off a few different movies that have been covered on this very pod. And speaking of water, the boys sample a beer made with cactus water that has a needlessly convoluted name: Shiner's TexHex Bruja's Brew IPA. Ridiculous beer name for a ridiculous movie. Everything's ridiculous over here!

Big Hot Summer continues with a film that features more fire, but this time it's coming out of a dang lizard's mouth! Dustin & Logan watched the dragon apocalypse movie, Reign of Fire. A film starring a pre-Batman Christian Bale, a crazy and wet-eyed Matthew McConaughey, and not near as many dragons as it should've! Oh, and also Gerard Butler. The Wet Hot Boys of Summer give the film a thorough examination and then try to name the best dragons of cinema. They also drink Psuedo Sue from Toppl...

The wet, hot summer series continues with the Dante's Peak rival in the lava wars of 1997, Volcano! Tommy Lee Jones and Anne Heche try to save Los Angeles from an impending volcanic eruption and all while having zero chemistry! Dustin and Logan break down the film while sampling Toppling Goliath's Pompeii Mosaic IPA and then dig into who they believe to be the top magma motion picture of the 90s! They also discuss Stranger Things, Roland Emmerich (again), and what their lava-spewing superhero pe...

The hot, hot summer is rolling along with a film about a volcano that hurls lava, fire, acid, and bridges at a quiet Washington town called Dante's Peak. Luckily, James Bond and Sarah Conner are there to...witness it, I guess. Logan and Dustin witness this film while sampling two different flavors from Leinenkugel's Summer Variety Pack. Other things discussed are The Kids in the Hall, Minx, movies that scream summer, and some badassery on and around Mount St. Helens.

Our Moonfall episode was originally VERY long. Like, damn near 3 hours. So, after chiseling it down, we still had a fun bonus features segment where we go through Roland Emmerich's filmography and try to determine our favorite film, BUT Independence Day is off the table. There's also plenty of other tangents because of course there is.

This episode was originally recorded back in February after freshly seeing Moonfall at the theater. (This is the episode that Logan and Dustin have been teasing for a while. Was this a worthwhile reveal? We bet not!). The boys, still giddy from the theatergoing experience, sip on some Zoltan by Exile Brewing while they attempt to explain Roland Emmerich's latest movie in which major cities get leveled by natural or extraterrestrial (this time it's both!) forces of destruction. Also, the moon is ...

It's another edition of One & Done and the boys are cheating a little bit by covering the recent miniseries, Pam & Tommy. But the beer choice is quite apt because it is from Exile Brewing's One and Done series!

The Requin is a new film starring Alicia Silverstone that claims to be a shark movie, but is really just a strange relationship/survival drama that quickly devolves into utter nonsense. It's also the worst thing Logan and Dustin have ever seen. They reluctantly discuss it while sampling three beers from Surly's Unusual Suspects variety pack. Then, to distance themselves from such a harrowing experience, they go rogue with a Star Wars themed shot segment, and wrap up by each recommending 3 random...

We're back with another episode of One & Done! It's the show where we talk about a television series that only lasted one season and we only have the amount of time it takes for us to drink a single beer. This time we're talking about the Outsider, HBO's adaptation of the Stephen King novel that had pretty good viewership when it premiered in 2020, but was not renewed for a second season. We have some conflicting feelings about it and have a little conflict between ourselves when it comes to...

The (singular) Batman (the only one ever made) is now on HBOMax and the moist movie men have watched it! It's a pulpy noir film in which a brooding costumed vigilante walks into rooms and...just kinda talks to people. There's murders, too. Did I mention the brooding? Anyway, there's some cool shit in it too and the boys discuss it while sampling Firestone Walker's Merlin Nitro Milk Stout. They also get into the current state of superhero movies, other ways to adapt Batman, and pitch a sitcom set...

Dustin and Logan are back with a movie that may not have sharks in it, but at least it's still pretty wet. They watched 1997's Anaconda, a film in which Jon Voight inexplicably plays a man from Paraguay that has a Cajun accent. Oh, also, there's a big snake. Our moist movie men discuss this slice of serpentine cinema while sipping on Potosi's Snake Hollow IPA. They also dig into what's fact and fiction about anacondas, chat about the Dropout on Hulu, and do maybe their dumbest "shot" segment yet...
