Let's end the first month of The Halloween Hustle with a certified hood classic! Like Bad Boys 2, this was another of those DVD's that you'd see in every Black family household, including mine. Will it hold up though? That is the real question because not every parody of this era has held up in all these years. Cameron joins us for this episode and battles it out with Chris at the end of the episode in the hip hop card game and Anita shocks us all with her dislike of Ginuwine. Thank you for list...

Third time is the charm! Three times i've tried to get someone to watch this movie on the podcast with me! Anita stepped out for this one but Chris is here with me and not only did we watch this horror classic, we watched "The Last Drive-In with Joe Bob Briggs version. Oh yeah, I turned Chris into a member of The Mutant Fam! This movie holds a special place with me and i'm hoping Chris can show it some love too! I also have a question for our lady listeners who may like to wear long fingernails ...

Oh you didn't read that wrong! PJ is back for one night only and we had to celebrate it by doing something special. We went to Tubi, found some Maverick movies and couldn't decide which one to do so we said screw it and for the first time ever, we cover two movies in full! The Halloween Hustle is in strong effect this week! Of course since it's been a while, we got hype, we got drunk and the convo got wild. Anita and Tiff are with us as well and Tiff gives us a taste of what it's like to do kara...

Oh yeah, Harry Potter is going away for a while because it's time for the Halloween Hustle baby and this is a film that i've wanted to get on the show for a long, long time! Sugar Hill is the fun story of a woman who gets revenge on a bunch of racist gangsters who killed her boyfriend by summoning Baron Samedi and killing them with voodoo magic! I was hype this week, I wont lie. There is some singing, we discuss the Men in Black movies, Nelly's first album, favorite gospel songs, the Breakin' so...

It's year five at Hogwarts and man, I hope we keep the momentum up from last movie because I still have like three movies left after this! I heard good things though, so let me grab my wand, see what the sorting hat got to say about me and go practice my Avada Kedavra spell! I also give my quick thoughts so far on the new Mortal Kombat game and show some love to Star Trek Online. Chris has beef with Fast X and Anita finds out how Harry Potter can better relationships. We hope you enjoy the show!...

Puppers, Doggos and satire, oh my! Yeah. this is one I was concerned about going in. Like Death to Smoochy, this is a film that I would skip past on TV all the time. Thanks to Izzy over at Everything I Learned from Movies, I have to finally sit down and watch this one too. Anita and Chris also have never seen this before so at least I wasn't alone. Chris and I also reminisce the hype old days of wrestling and lament how it's just not the same anymore, Anita talks a bit about her thoughts on Twin...

We're back at Hogwarts for year 4 and i'm hoping I can finally break the 6/10 trend that has been going on with these films! Unlike the last film, Anita and Chris seemingly have different views on the quality of this installment, so my interest is there but will the enjoyment be there? That is the question. We also have good hearty laughs at the terrible CGI of that baby from Twilight, we discuss our prom memories or really the lack thereof for some of us, Anita gives her review for Die Hard 2 a...

For so many years I would see this DVD in the discount bins at video stores, I would see it come on after watching something on Comedy Central and turn the channel, now thanks to Brandy G, I can no longer escape Smoochy! I can't lie, I wasn't looking forward to this one so I hoped it would be a pleasant surprise. We also talked about Space Jam 2, Scooby Doo, the Cowboy Bebop Netlfix show, old kids shows and we were shocked about how seemingly progressive the main character is in this film. Thank...

It's the third year over at Hogwarts and I hope it's a more eventful year than the last! Anita and Chris both think this is top tier with the Harry Potter movies but i'm gonna go into this level headed and with tempered expectations. Like the good 'ol days, the convo went all over the place as we also discussed the new Wonka movie, the Trump mugshot, Yogi Bear, The Flash TV series, old Nickelodeon shows and their orange VHS tapes and we try to figure out what episode of Mystery Science Theater 3...

Thank you Mike Bagford! It's been far too long since we last talked James Bond and this is well known as one of the best films in the series! I've only seen it once all the way through so this is going to be fun to give it full attention, take notes and see how well Mr. Bond can entertain me. I also give my PSA's to the film industry about spending too much money on over bloated budgets, we investigate a bad term that we just found out was bad and we get hype over the Montgomery Brawl! Thank you...

It's Year 2 at Hogwarts and I haven't heard a lot of good about this Chamber of Secrets! I ended up being okay with the first, but will this be better than expected or just a filler year? Chris and Anita are here with me, and she made me some Butterbeer...Even though I don't know what that is yet! I also learn a new way to diss people in the phrase, "Mudblood." Oh and I found out what group I would belong to in Hogwarts and the type of wand I'd have and it's not even the class you thought! Suppo...

Hey! You remember Jaws right? Well forget all that, we got killer whales son! It's been a while since we had some good 'ol trash on the podcast, this takes me back to the days when i'd make PJ watch Oversexed Rugsuckers from Mars or Gymkata. Anita and Chris are here this week and this movie was brought to us by the Homie Angel formerly of the Color Me Dead Podcast. Anita goes into her hatred or horror films and specifically the torture films, I talk a bit about how Mission: Impossible II sucks a...

Now that I finally watched all the Rocky and Creed movies, I wanted to start another series that I had missed out on, not many bigger that I could think of than, Harry Potter! I read the first two books as a kid but never watched any of the films. That changes today and not only is Anita a super fan of the series but Chris is back this week and he is also a big fan!

My Mom shows some love to the show this week with her second Patreon pick and as a die hard fan of mob films, she gave us the aptly titled, "Mobsters." Anita has never been exposed to that mob life, so she dips her toes in and starts with one that was universally panned and bombed in the movie theater. I have childhood memories of watching this film with Mom as a youngin' though, so i'm ready to see if it holds up! We also discuss our go to birthday songs, Robert Z'Dar, the Secret Invasion serie...

Patreon once again is going to broaden my horizons and get me to finally check out a Hayao Miyazki film! I like anime but with this being released by Disney, will it be too cutesy or sappy for my tastes or will the anime vibes keep this one from belonging in the trash? Anita is here once again and she grew up a fan of this joint so if you get mad at me, she's got your back. We also discuss our recent Catalina trip, jobs no one wants, the old Fantastic Four films and I play her a bunch of AI crea...

This Patreon pick is taking me back to my childhood! Back in 2003, MTV grabbed the rights to South Korean action film, Volcano High and got a bunch of rappers and singers to re dub it. I loved this back then but will it hold up 20 YEARS LATER? Anita is here and she basically talks me through all the basic sex-ed that I was neglected in my public school days.

ROUND 10! It's finally time to end the Rocky saga, at least until they make another creed movie. Since it's the end and this is a newer movie, I decided to give it the full episode treatment and man, i'm glad I did. Anita is with me this week and we dive deep into the film as well as discuss LA dudes and lottery tickets in movies, horror and thriller films, Michael B Jordan dealing with being called corny, all the Jonathan Majors controversy, Anita's feelings on Tessa Thompson and we got a surpr...

That changes today! Anita joins me on the microphone this week as we discuss the film, my beef with movers and other people who have been making this move difficult, freight elevators, run flat tires, my first visit to a dispensary and I have a PSA that I hope all of you can agree with. It's a new chapter for The Home...

This was recorded after the six year anniversary episode but I wanted to end the Ohio stretch of the podcast with PJ back on the microphone and Cameron joined us as well, my blood brother and my brother from another mother all together! PJ had us watch a Twilight Zone episode called, "The Monsters are Due on Maple Street" and we give our quick thoughts about it. We mainly discuss music (of course) but particularly this top 50 hip hop beats list from a page called Rap Caviar. Little tangents in-b...

We've talked about watching this movie for years now and with this being the last episode i'm going to record in Ohio before heading out to California, I felt it was about time. Chris and Cameron are here with me on this walk back through our childhoods. Chris drops mad knowledge and flexes his Power Rangers knowledge, we figure out our favorite Run-DMC songs, Cameron expresses his love for the Streets of Rage soundtracks, we tell many stories about Chris' mishaps back in the day and I express m...

After quoting and referencing this movie every week for so long, Chris and I finally just said screw it and reviewed the movie. We actually stay on topic pretty much the whole episode but we do branch off at times to discuss wrestling, the Final Destination movies, film remakes that are better than the originals and of course the huge influence this film had on hip-hop.

The Hustle has been strong for 300 (plus) episodes! I got Chris and Cameron here and I had to find a movie for us to really sink our teeth into and since we are all lifelong Mortal Kombat fans, this made the most sense. We nerd out and deep dive into MK cannon, the biggest MK jobbers, our love for Mortal Kombat Mythologies: Sub-Zero, old MK commercials, the best endings from Mortal Kombat 4 and get into the games, movies, tv series, cartoons and more! We also try and figure out who the funniest ...

Six years, man how time flies. The Home Video Hustle has gone through many changes but we're still here. From 45-minute episodes to six-hour extravaganzas, we are happy to have been able to keep you entertained for so damn long now.

The Patreon list stikes hard this week. I knew I would need help for this one and thankfully Chris was able to get on the mic with me. We got through it but one of us fell asleep for a section of the film, can you guess who? We also talk about Kraven the Hunter, James Bond movies, Inspector Gadget, the wack 1998 Godzilla movie and it's soundtrack, Brent's dislike for The Big Lebowski and Chris picks next weeks movie and it may be a double feature of pain...

I heard it's pretty wild and very trashy, so that seems like something i need to check out. This film also taught me a new term that I had to go and look up on Urban Dictionary.

Round 9! This is the film that almost made me do this series sooner. When this was coming out, it looked great but I hadn't seen anything before it and I was too lazy then to go through everything, not this time though! I definitely have a real strong thought about this film that I may be alone with but i'll have to see if you guys agree. Almost gone the distance, just one round left...

It's round 8 and finally, I get to watch the series that set me on this journey. Rocky's story is over but can the son of Apollo Creed have as entertaining a journey as Balboa? I don't know why I was so hyper during this episode, i'm talking really fast in spots, so apologies in advance. Maybe the film just got me that hype...
