Episode description

True Lies is a nostalgic favorite and the first film with a budget over $100 million, but how does it hold up today? Ned and Caroline spend this entire episode debating that very question! From its great action scenes to its troubling racism and sexism to that infamous striptease, the co-hosts try to weigh the good against the bad in this action-comedy classic. Plus they psychoanalyze James Cameron, praise the range of Jamie Lee Curtis, and deliver some terrible Arnold Schwarzenegger impressions.

As discussed in this episode, you can read more about Eliza Dushku's experience of abuse on the set of True Lies (https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/news/general-news/eliza-dushku-says-true-lies-stunt-coordinator-sexually-assaulted-her-she-was-12-1074594/) and read Jamie Lee Curtis' statement of support (https://www.huffpost.com/entry/jamie-lee-curtis-eliza-dushku-true-lies-abuse_b_5a5ba76de4b03c418966b2e2).
