Crucial Podcast: Final Run Announcement

Crucial Podcast

Release Date: 05/05/2025

Crucial Podcast: Crucial Podcast: "Mission Impossible: Ghost Protocol"

Crucial Podcast

All of The Matt and Tubes gadgets fry and explode as they try to find out if "Mission Impossible: Ghost Protocol" is Crucial.  The Matt isn't the biggest fan of the "James Bond" or "Mission Impossible" series. Can the writing and directing of Brad Bird change his mind? You'll have to march into a sandstorm and climb the Burj Khalifa to find out! Love 2bs  Up Next: A few more episodes than I thought...

Crucial Podcast: Crucial Podcast: "Snake Eyes"

Crucial Podcast

The Matt and Tubes face down "Snake Eyes".  An epic "Political Thriller?!?"  I'm not sure of the genre, but I am sure that "Snake Eyes" is Crucial!   NIcholas Cage gives his all as "Rick Santoro" a dirt-bag detective who gets forced into doing the right thing. He will have to compete with Gary Sinese who is chaneling his manliness into "Kevin Dunne" a Navy Commander who may be up to no good.    The whole affair turns into one of the greatest Neo-noir adventures of all time! It's really Neo-noir, I promise!   This was a fun one! Enjoy!   Love, 2bs   ...

We end the series with a talk about "The Empire Strikes Back".  I hope that you enjoy the last few episodes of "Crucial Podcast".  It has been an amazing run.

Crucial Podcast Crucial Podcast "Who's Afraid Of Virginia Woolf?"

Crucial Podcast

The Matt and Tubes go hard all night to understand "Who's Afraid Of Virginia Woolf?"   This is one of Tubes favorite movies! Which might tell you something about Tubes.   The guys endure over two hours of truth and illusion as "Martha" and "George" play mind games involving "The Husband" and "The Mouse". Will they snap! Will they understand this? Or will the puff go away? Are they just flops?   You'll have to listen to this episode to find out if "Who's Afraid Of Virginia Woolf?" is Crucial.   Love 2bs,   Up Next: "Boiler Room"

Crucial Podcast Crucial Podcast "Good Will Hunting"

Crucial Podcast

The Matt and Tubes go into counseling to find out if "Good Will Hunting" is Crucial.    We have a talk about sperm donors, adoption, and what we would do with Will Hunting's talents. We also discuss what works about the construction of "Good Will Hunting" and why studio notes can be a good thing.    Sorry this write up is short. I gotta see about a girl.   Love, Tubes   Up Next: "Who's Afraid Of Virginia Woolf?"

Crucial Podcast Crucial Podcast "Home Alone 2: Lost In New York"

Crucial Podcast

The Matt and Tubes stop to change their Talkboy batteries to find out if "Home Alone 2" is Crucial. Kevin gets seperated from the Mccallister clan again, this time ending up in New York for christmas. We talk about the city, the landmarks, the cast, and we compare it to the original to see how it holds up.   The episode schedule is gonna be changing everybody. I've got a new gig and we just don't have as much time as we have in the past. We are going to be putting out episodes when we can but the week to week thing just isn't possible right now. Just wanted to throw a note in.  ...

Crucial Podcast Crucial Podcast "Candyman" (1992)

Crucial Podcast

How time flies... It's October! So The Matt and Tubes are doing some horror. First we have a discussion about "Candyman" a look into urban legends and the real world events that inspire them.  Can you look into the mirror and call out "Candyman"? You'll have to watch out for bees, and hooks, and poo!   Love, 2bs (1984) Up Next: "The Thing" (1982) Isn't it annoying to have to disambiguate all of these reboots?

Crucial Podcast Crucial Podcast "The Last Seduction"

Crucial Podcast

The Matt and Tubes won't go as far as Linda Fiorentino to find out if "The Last Seduction" is Crucial. This was a wild movie and an even wilder talk! This movie goes hard, so this episode does too! Listener discretion advised!   Love, 2bs Up Next: "Candyman"

Crucial Podcast Crucial Podcast "The Super Mario Bros. Movie" (2023)

Crucial Podcast

Sometimes you just have to draw a line. Yeah, ain't that the way these days. I just gotta say some stuff on "The Super Mario Bros. Movie". My issue going into this movie was pure fatigue. It wasn't fatigue from over saturation of blockbusters, I actually don't watch that many blockbusters these days. I just had this sinking feeling every time I saw an ad for this movie. Everyone is going to be talking about this. No one has any reason to like this over anything else. Everyone is going to ask me about this movie a hundred times because they know I like Mario games, and animated features. This...
